Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

Taking apart the Mighty Mouse may void your warranty, but it works perfectly at cleaning your mouse. The only reason the scroll bar stops scrolling is because dirt and debris gets stuck between the ball and the little rollers. Just take it apart, clean all the little components, put it back together and it works just like new.

i love my mighty mouse, the scroll ball gets dirty once in a while but i just do what apple reccomends, takes me one minute and brings me 1+ month of scrollball joy. :)

I can't tell you how many times I've done that, and my mighty mouse still doesn't work! I just gave up after a while. :rolleyes:

The best method of keeping your Mighty Mouse working is prevention. Wash your hands before you use it - every time. Everybody should be doing this anyway really, because computer mice and keyboards are a perfect breeding ground for disease and contamination.

Agreed. I've had a mighty mouse for a while now (A year or two maybe) and I've never had a problem with it.

My new MacBook black with 160GB HDD and 2GB Memory, dual core Intel 2.16Ghz.

Took that picture at work about an hour after getting it and it already started attracting all the finger prints. How I love it then; already got Leopard pre-ordered (?5 scheme). Shall be getting a nice black iPod Classic to go with it next.

My camera messed up the colors on the screens for some reason. :rolleyes:

Nice desks. I like all the glass and panels.

Are you aware that they are upside down, though? The Chinese characters are facing down, not up. If you already knew, sorry to repeat! >_<;;

I think I'll try a similar look for my office area--only with pink plexiglass like I saw in a magazine. ^^;

^^ you must be mad of money. Great clean setup, however I don't see why you just didn't get a monitor for you MacBook Pro instead of getting a iMac?

Thanks

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
    • Hey what's about the proton vpn firefox extension ? It's not working today
    • On what though? Not Ray Tracing.
    • Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
    • Happy for him, it is one of the first apps I install on a new Windows machine, been using it for years!
