I built one to turn a couple of rare automotive books into PDF so I dont damage a $180.00 book in the garage.
Great, so now you can damage a $1800 laptop instead?
Since when do you need a new $1800 laptop to view PDFs? There's always old used laptops and even cheap new ones.
Re: Digital distribution that's keeping PC gaming alive There's one other thing that's revived PC gaming for me, and digital distribution does it by default. Apart from games I bought on Steam or from GOG, only one of them doesn't force me to insert the %^&*ing CD in order to play. This is despite the fact that games load just about nothing from CD these days because it's too slow!
You do realize that most common games have a no-CD crack available for them, right?
Odds are if it still works, it won't for very much longer, leaving it a glorified vase, with toxic metals in it.
What do you mean it won't work much longer? Chances are it'll last years longer, just like most other Apple hardware from the time. I've got Apple II systems that still function perfectly, CRT and all.
The man still worked on cars, and modified those big Chevy Impalas to get 30+ MPG.
Any way you could get the information on how to do it and post it up here? I'd love to know how to do that for myself.
(or GNU/Linux if it wasn't too long to fit)
The most you can have is 7 letters on NH plates.
Live, Freeze, and Die.
Except I was sweating my ass off the other day up here in NH.
What do you consider a "nice monitor"? Some 19" LCD with horrible contrast ratio, or an 24" SGI branded CRT going at 180hz? What is your resolution? Too often people complain they have eye strain, then you realize they are trying to look at 1280x1024 on a 17" monitor. Contrast sensitivity is pretty important. Ask any Vietnam vet. Ask any microbiologist. Ask anyone trying to play Doom 3...
I don't have problems with eye strain and I'm using 1600x1200 on an older Apple Studio CRT. I didn't increase the font sizes either. Also, you ought to put that the quote in your sig was from the song Lithium and not just something he randomly said.
1000 pains = 1 Megahertz
