    Scratched CDs & DVDs

    I think those scratched CD/DVDs in the iMacs is because the user putting in the CD/DVD in at an angle. With the slot drive on the right side this would be a plausible situation. Scratches on CDs can be removed with toothpaste and some light elbow grease.

    About Thursday Night -- New Idea!

    I think the only problem about your Sunday time streaming is during the fall & winter that is right in the middle of American Football season. You might be hard pressed to get guests and listeners during that time.

    The Dust Buildup

    Ever since I have had my G5 Dual 1.8 tower the dust has been building up in it. I have noticed with the many holes in the front the G5 sucks in so much air that has dust in it. I soon discovered that I had to clean it out about once a month because after that the fans would start sounding like...

    The iWork mention in 8/23/07

    I wonder why when I downloaded a Quicken file I downloaded from my online bank account the file opened almost flawlessly in Numbers. I was really surprised since Quicken 2007 refused to open it. I seen no Mac reviewer mentioning Numbers opening Quicken files at all.
