Macs? LOL I've got a few here... Some aren't even Macs anymore!

Lisa (not a Mac at all.) - original, untouched Lisa. Given to me free, complete, working with all the discs, books and boxes.

Color Classic - well, it WAS a color classic when it worked, it now has a TFT and a mini-ITX motherboard. Now runs Windows 2000 and MacOS8.1

iMac Revision A - again a mini-ITX machine, bought as a shell from eBay (?26!) for a few plastic parts. Turned out to fully working, just be missing the logic board tray. So with a bit of home cable making and a DB15 to HD15 adaptor, is now a PC. Again, 2000 and MacOS8.1

Indigo 350 iMac - 'QwaQwa'. 512MB RAM Runs his own web site. OS X 10.2.6

1GHz 15" SuperDrive TiBook - my main machine. Goes everywhere, does everything. Currently has 1.5GB of RAM. OS X 10.2.6

Dual 1.25GHz G4 with 23" TFT. 1GB RAM. Bought JUST before the 1.42GHz came out :no:: . Turns out RC5-72 units and generally mopes about in the corner. May be converted to OS X Server to make the next machine discless.

1.2GHz Cube (450 DVD model). 1GB RAM Adding the upgrade and fan made it mighty noisy. Thinking of switching back to it's original processor, dropping the HDD out and running it via NetBoot for a REAL silent PC. Just general web surfing dutys and looking cool in the living room connected to a 52" plasma screen. Switching from TV to OS X impresses people no end:))

If you can get your hands on 1GB PC133 high density SO-DIMMS, you can have 2GB. However, I have never managed to find more than the one I have now. I've seen DDR ones (at HUGE cost), but, have yet to see any more PC133 ones for sale...

there's only 2 SO-DIMM slots in the TiBook, how do you manage to throw in more than 1GB of ram in there?

what are you talking about? the 15" TiBook does not support DDR.

i'm lost. educate me.

Emmm. That's fairly easy to understand.

You get 2 PC133 (non-DDR) 1GB High Density SO-DIMMS.

2x 1GB = 2GB.

I then went on to say that I had seen DDR ones for sale recently, but no further 1GB PC133 ones.

Apple said the WallStreet only supported 192MB.... I ran 512MB happily in mine, as did several other people...

Apple said the original iMac only supported 384MB.... I ran 512MB happily in mine, as did several other people...

See a pattern here? :yes:

haha i see. thanks for the info! :)

I'll be joining the Neowin Mac community on Wednesday when I'll be getting a 12.1" Powerbook G4.

I'm kinda excited but worried, mainly because I've been on Windows for like ever and I'll have to start again on another OS.

Anyways heres the spec I'm getting:

12.1-inch TFT Display

867MHz PowerPC G4

256MB DDR266 memory

40GB Ultra ATA/100 drive

DVD/CD-RW drive

Don't worry to much about switching.... The first few days is where the pain is....

Your trained Windows brain wants to work one way and Mac OS X doesn't play ball...

Then suddenly as you experiment more.... you forget Windows and begin to awaken to the

joys of OS X Jaguar...

People ask me what's it like when you switch?

I say, remember the scene in The Matrix, when Neo is reborn into the The Real World.....

There's a few days of pain as he gets used to the Real World... his eyes hurt.... then he starts learning

judo and karate..and suddenly he begins kicking ass...

I say using OS X is a bit like that.....

Wise Words from the Kemical One...

Mac OS X... the choice of the Kemical GenerAtion

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
