Search street signs on eBay.

There are a lot of places that make customized street signs for no additional charges.

Make sure they're empressed like the one pictured and not printed on.

Best of luck.

Finally got around to taking pictures with my Mom's Kodak EasyShare 3.1MP camera.

lol I couldn't help posting these photos I took of some of my old Macs. This thread brought back memories of my Mac days. I still have Mac ties, administrating the basicically entirely Mac network at the local primary school.

hey i think its halirious dat you guys love your macs so much, but more than half of you have microsoft mouses

I don't see how anyone could cope with those one-button mice. That's one thing Apple got wrong IMO.

Last time I checked, owning a Mac or a Dell didn't mean you have to use the included Mac or Dell mouse :rolleyes:

Lol! That's awesome! The only one out of the ones you shown that I've used is the Mac Classic. Oh the good ol' days...

just a thought  :huh:

I put a PCI USB card in the PowerMac 6500 (It has ADB only) just so I could use a decent USB Microsoft mouse :p

That was before I discovered Logitech! MX700 :D

Heck I even felt a great sense of achievement when I got OS X running on the thing (It only has a PPC 603e processor), damn it was slow :p Although I still love old Macs, Apple has certainly come a long way in the past few years!

loving Macs doesn't mean we hate Microsoft.

btw i use Logitech. ;)

most people here love Windows XP so much, yet a lot of them try so hard to make their Windows looks like OSX. do you find that hilarious too? :unsure:

HAHAHA our school is full of mac classics all the teachers like them, my english teacher calls hers old reliable hahahahahha she says its the best thing since sliced bread

our school uses SOME macs, our teachers hate them, not the macs fault though, we use old outdated software running on OS9. Still DECENT, but it sure is not OSX. We are upgrading, but knowing our cheap school it will probably be to like OS 10.2 or something

I don't see how anyone could cope with those one-button mice. That's one thing Apple got wrong IMO.

I have been looking for a bluetooth mouse for my powerbook. All the ones that logitech and MS make are just plain butt-ugly IMO. So I decided to go to the apple retailer and check out their bluetooth mouse. I was actually quite impressed with it and am pretty sure I could get used to only one button. I mean my trackpad only has one button on it and I get along with it fine. I think that I might pick it up unless I can find any other bt mouse that looks good.

BTW, has anyone else with an apple notebook wished there was a cntrl button on the right side of they keyboard instead of enter so you could right-click easier? Wait, I just had a though, isn't there programs where you can change that stuff around I thought. Or is it built in to OS X???

    • Does anyone here know if these updates are integrated into the UUP dump isos?
    • Motrix Next 3.9.4 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.4 changelog: Motrix Next 3.9.4 promotes the 3.9.4 beta cycle to stable. This release refreshes bundled engine binaries, improves task detail readability and copy actions, expands link handling for magnet and ED2K workflows, polishes responsive navigation and text wrapping, updates browser extension documentation, and refines network preference controls. New Features Task Detail copy actions — Added copyable values for task metadata and reusable render functions for long text fields. Magnet and ED2K lifecycle support — Added task lifecycle handling for magnet and ED2K links. History cleanup for deleted tasks — Deleted tasks can now remove matching history records. User-Agent management — Added user-agent management and improved related network preference controls. Browser extension documentation — Added the Firefox Add-ons link for the Motrix Next extension. Improvements Engine binaries — Updated bundled binaries for supported architectures. Task Detail readability — Long task names, URLs, tracker values, and copyable metadata now render more clearly.

Proxy controls — Improved proxy button styling in network preferences.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
