Also one of the computers we have at work, a Compaq Presario 5838, has built-in firewire. It's an older Athlon system. I'm not sure if Compaq still sells computers with built in firewire, but they...

I really love the new iBook and I'm sure it's going to do well, but what that county did doesn't say anything. Apple must have wined and dined them long before the announcement and offered them a...

Right, what he meant by classic mode is the classic skin or really the lack of any skin all-together. As to what you're asking which is unrealted to the classic skin, certain Win95 apps won't work...
