PCI-X is simply just double clocked standard PCI. The FirmTek "PCI-X" cards simply mean support for that extra bandwidth feature but they are still fully compatible in a G4 tower.
FirmTek bungled it a bit by just flat out calling it PCI-X. It should be listed as PCI-X support. Just look at any of their non-PCI express cards. All support both G5 and G4 towers.
I have one of these very cards (FirmTek 1S2) in my G4 and it is listed as PCI-X but also lists support for G4's in the requirements.
To the original poster..
I strongly recommend the 1V4 (http://www.firmtek.com/seritek/seritek-1v4/) from FirmTek as it allows 4 drives so you can use all 4 drive bays in the MDD's. If you only ever want up to 2 drives or need to spend less you can get the 2 channel 1S2 (http://www.firmtek.com/seritek/seritek-1s2/) I have.

I watched the Ghost Armor guy apply that shield wet at the mall, and definitely thought that was easy and a nice way to go since you can slide it around. But the dry shields are really easy to apply as long as you are patient and careful. So I am not sure it is worth the drying time etc...

No specific recommendation since it was a while since I bought one, but a 2.5" IDE to 3.5" IDE adapter is fortunately very non-complicated so even the cheap ones on eBay should be OK.
The only thing the adapter has to do is to change the standard IDE connector and the normal power connector to smaller variants for the 2.5" drive. The signals are the same.

I think people are having their MacGasms a little eary.
Usually they wait for Steve to walk out on stage with his Keynote Remote before they have their first MacGasm.

Sorry for the delay, to answer the questions:
1. You don't have to get a data plan with the phone. Just pop in your sim card and you're set.
2. This CAN be unlocked by various means however it will not come unlocked.
3. Yes, it is still for sale.

It's logical enough that Intel was considered as an alternative before Apple adopted the G5. Apple has admitted that an x86 version of Mac OS X has been maintained internally since day one.

1.) It's fine to leave it plugged when not in use. I do this all the time.
2.) I have Lightroom 3 installed. It will run just fine. But 64 GB is awfully small for any photos. It will work though. I'd recommend hiding the dock and running Lightroom in full screen mode because of the screen size.

I was thinking about buying the new logic studio 9, but was wondering because it came out almost 2 years ago is apple coming out with the studio 10? If so when? Also what is the difference between buying the academic full version, and the retail full version?

Research in the US has found that songs get stuck in our heads because they create a "brain itch" that can only be scratched by repeating the tune over and over.
In Germany, this type of song is known as an "ohrwurm" - an earworm - and typically has a high, upbeat melody and repetitive lyrics that verge between catchy and annoying.
Songs such as the Village People's YMCA, Los Del Rio's Macarena, and the Baha Men's Who Let The Dogs Out owe their success to their ability to create a "cognitive itch," according to Professor James Kellaris, of the University of Cincinnati College of Business Administration.
"A cognitive itch is a kind of metaphor that explains how these songs get stuck in our head," Professor Kellaris told BBC World Service's Outlook programme.
"Certain songs have properties that are analogous to histamines that make our brain itch.
"The only way to scratch a cognitive itch is to repeat the offending melody in our minds."
'Insidious and blatant'
Professor Kellaris has presented the early results of his earworm research at a conference on Consumer Psychology.
He said that virtually everyone suffered from a cognitive itch at one time or another.
"Across surveys I found that from 97% to 99% of the population is susceptible to earworms at some time," he stated.
"But certainly some people are more susceptible than others. Women tend to be more susceptible than men, and musicians are more susceptible to them than non-musicians."
The research is of particular interest to both the pop industry - looking to boost sales - and to advertisers, who often use jingles to get their brand name stuck in the head of listeners.
"For both advertising purposes and pop music purposes, you want something that once heard is not forgotten quickly or easily," explained jingle writer Chris Smith, adding that a good earworm was "Insidious - and often quite blatant".
"One of the key elements of an earworm is repetition," he said.
"If you have something with a lot of varied content, it's not so easily assimilated.
"So really, I would have thought that for practical purposes an earworm is really something that people can take on very quickly and then reproduce while walking down the street, much to everybody else's annoyance."
Clearing the mind
Even the greatest musicians had suffered with earworms, Mr Smith said.
Mozart's children would "infuriate" him by playing melody and scales on the piano below his room - but stopping before completing the tune.
"He would have to rush down and complete the scale because he couldn't bear to listen to an unresolved scale," Mr Smith related.
Professor Kellaris said that his research had shown that there was, however, no standard for creating an earworm - people could react differently to different tunes.
"I compiled a top 10 list of earworms in the US, but the number one item is simply the category 'other' - which means that any tune is prone to become an earworm," he said. "It's highly idiosyncratic."
And he added that there was also no guaranteed way of ever getting the song off the brain.
"Replacement strategies rarely work, because as we search our memories for a replacement tune, we're likely to come up with another earworm," he admitted.
"Some people swear by completion strategies - if you listen through a piece in its entirety, some times that will make it go away."

ds carts can only do WEP wireless security. if your router is set to anything other than WEP your game will not connect. the dsi hardware itself can connect to other security protocols. thats how you are able to use the browser.

It's a decent machine for surfing the net, but watch out for flash.
You can't upgrade beyond 10.5 as others have mentioned.
My wife uses a 1.33 ghz iBook G4 for surfing and it's fine.

You would think that all MS employees have zunes, but many have ipods.
I don't doubt that, but do you think that someone such as Steve Ballmer or someone who is about to go into a big partnership with MS would be filming a commercial for Steve Jobs? :rolleyes:
