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.

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...

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our school uses SOME macs, our teachers hate them, not the macs fault though, we use old outdated software running on OS9.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 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???

    • Geez, this is dumb. I use my laptop sometimes in the dark when doing astrophotography to control my astro-PC... this explains why I have to keep entering my PIN when logging back in. So stupid. I can't see the keyboard in the dark, and I can't have lights everywhere to light it up because everything is very light sensitive (including my eyes!).
    • Naturally. I don't care about brand loyalty at all as it's all about price/performance/reliability etc (even what RejZoR said below is a great point to). basically bang-for-the-buck. because at the end of the day... one wants the cheapest possible price to maintain a certain minimum level of performance (or thereabouts). because generally after a certain point with CPU and GPU's the price starts to sky rocket without that much difference in performance where it really matters. p.s. historically I have bought more Intel CPU's and NVIDIA GPU's but I have had some AMD CPU's and one AMD GPU.
    • Both of these companies as well as Qualcomm and Apple need competition. Otherwise, they just coast. I don't prefer macOS, though I like some of Apple's hardware, but if anyone needs competition, it is Apple. Their prices are already outrageous and they need to have a reason to produce good hardware and at least keep prices remotely reasonable. (It is criminal what they charge for RAM upgrades especially.) Qualcomm needs to push AMD and Intel not to be so sloppy with the performance/efficiency aspect. Granted, AMD has been doing quite well in this respect considering they are not an ARM architecture. I personally want to have more options that truly compete with Macbook Air and Macbook Pro's on the Windows side. It is difficult to achieve what Apple does since they control the entire stack and that is fundamentally different for Windows PCs other than maybe Microsoft Surface PCs.
    • I would not mind paying 120 up to 150 dollars in this economy value of the dollar currency if their video game is quite breathtaking and excellent use of my hard earned work money. I think people need to appreciate all the effort workers and time that goes into excellent and worthy video games. Now if only the publishers and companies behind the video games would share the love with the developers those at the bottom of work making such games happen as in increase their money accounts and give them a more richer life that I wish would have happened . But how companies have bad reputation of being $$$ profit greedy I feel sad if there are any developers that feel unappreciated as in no real compensation for all the hours of work they put into a blockbuster hit . Have a great day everyone . Thank you developers engineers and programmers that make superb video games happen . You have my thanksgiving and I hope you really really appreciate my words . With you all about this
