RMG133-Booting from an external drive.
Thanks to a listener who Skyped us a question. He asked if it is possible to boot his new dual processor G5 from an external FireWire drive. The answer is yes and today's podcast explains how. If you have a question, drop us an email (macguys@mac.com) or catch us on Skype. Our Skype ID is "MacGuys" of course.
Another user wrote asking for details on how to reset an iPod. The andwer depends on which version of the iPod you have. You can do a reset, or can restore the iPod to it's original (before you added tunes or other files) by follwing the directions in this Apple Tech Note.
A lot of smaller software developers today announced Mac OS 10.4/Tiger versions of their products today. Among them were the folks who build Cocktail, a very useful utility suite for Mac OS X. The company have two versions out; one which works with systems up to 10.3.8, and one that works with 10.4. Unfortunately, those of us who are running 10.3.9 seem to be out in the cold for the time being.
TextSoap, a wonderful application for cleaning up text moved from one environment to another, has also announced an upgrade for Tiger compatibility.
CNN is reporting on an incident where a flight from NYC to San Francisco was diverted to Chicago when one passenger noticed another doing something suspicious with a small white and sliver electronic device of some sort. When the authorities boarded the plane in Chicago, they discovered that the "suspicious passenger" was simply listening to music on his iPod.
Of course today's big news are the new PowerMac G5 models released today by Apple computer. The new machines feature faster processors, more memory, and a new dual layer DVD recorder. In addition, Apple announced large price cuts on two of it's Cinema Displays.
The podcast ends with a really nice tune from Austin Texas singer/songwriter named Nick Brown. The song is called "I Want Mine."
