Does that mouse in front of your iBook use the iBook's built-in Bluetoooth? & What mouse is it?

Cheers,

Daniel.

Yeah its the Logitech MX900, tis connected to the iBook via Bluetooth :) Came with my DiNovo but I decided to get a new mouse for my PC and use that for the laptop :)

Heres my full setup!

(Sorry for the Windows PC in the pic, I didnt want to go behind my monitor to hook up the MBP cable...)

What you see is a 2.0GHz/1GB/Radeon X1600 Mac Book Pro, with a Logitech MX510 mouse. It's also blue-toothing to my Motorola V710 seen by the Dell FP1808 display.

My PC isnt anything special, 3GHz P4/1.5GB RAM/Geforce 6800. Also, some generic Logitech speakers which are most used by streaming music from the MBP. Logitech MX518 Mouse. The MacBook Pro is a MAJOR advancement!

An iPod for completeness, and my Apple Remote is under the monitor, is its visible.

Towards the left, lies my Canon printer, a stack of 100 CD-R's and DVD-R's, an Linksys WRT54GX2 Router, and hiding is a RCA Cable modem given to me by comcast. Go 15mbit!

PS - Go KeR for making the Super Metroid HD Wall! I love it man!

I know that this is going to sound weird, but can anyone with a 12'' ibook take a photo of the screen with a website open? I'm close to buying the ibook i've been wanting, but the only store selling them near me won't let me even touch the damn thing, and i'd really like to see how well i can read anything

thanks in advance

I've had this conversation with a friend a couple of days ago... with the new specs i'm expecting the new macbook to go into the 1500? range, and that's too expensive for me. The ibook does what i want it to do, i'll leave the power-tasks for my deskto:p:p

Going by recent price trends, the macbook will launch at the same price or very close to the current model, you will be shooting yourself in a month or two when the new ones are released

The ibook suits my needs/tastes perfectly, and i don't like the idead of spending that much money in rev. a hardware. I know the laptop will be obsolete within a year or two, but if it does last that much i think i got my money well payed :p

So can anyone help me with this foolish request?

thanks again

      I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
