- Rig of the Week: PowerBook with USB cooling fan
Filed under: Hardware, Hacks, PowerBook, Rig of the Week
TUAW reader and Flickr user sninesix posted this snapshot of the USB CPU fan he rigged up to cool his PowerBook. When the original fan died, sninesix found an old fan he had lying around, removed the wires and hacked a USB cable onto it.
He then removed laptop's keyboard and positioned the fan just above the CPU. With a USB keyboard connected, he was back in business. Well done! You can watch a video explanation here.

Filed under: OS, Rumors, Leopard
With more than a month to go before Leopard's release, Apple seeded a large update (6.5GB) to ADC members on Friday, AppleInsider reports. There are only two major issues left in this build.
First, the Archive and Install procedure seems to be failing on PPC-based machines, which is a biggie. The second issue wasn't clearly defined, but involves users with HP printers connected to their Macs (as well as users upgrading from a Tiger install that included an HP printer). At this point, Apple is suggesting developers do a custom install that excludes the HP drivers. That sounds like a pain to me, but I'm sure it will be fixed before October.
One final note: It looks like Leopard's iCal dock icon displays the proper date at all times! The dozen or so people who have clamored for this may rejoice.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/09/23/new-leopard-update-as-release-date-nears/#comments - Microsoft corrects .Mac issue
Filed under: Internet
Last week, .Mac users were having trouble using Microsoft's Windows Live Messenger service (why they don't connect to MSN Messenger with Adium is unclear, but, whatever...). Specifically, attempts to connect with an "@mac.com" email address produced an error, prompting the the user to change their address.
Microsoft has since fixed the problem, which they attributed to "...internal error during routine testing." In other words, you're now good to go, .Mac users. All is well that ends well.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
