I bought the Apple wireless Keyboard to go with my Mac mini. It’s Bluetooth and much smaller than the previous generation keyboards. Although it doesn’t have contoured keys as on a traditional keyboard, and they keys feel slightly wider apart than standard, it types surprisingly well and is extremely portable. Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t make the “full size” keyboard with numeric keypad in wireless / Bluetooth yet. But using a Mac for over three years now in a non-business environment, I haven’t really missed the 10-key.
More clutter-free, more work to be done. I love my MX1000 laser mouse, but it needs new feet, and gives OS X fits sometimes. Various generations of the Western Digital MyBook series. I’ve found that FireWire drives are harder to come by these days, the two drives on the right are USB-only.
I’m working on a fun post on the various hard drive’s I’ve owned through the years. Here is a sneak peak.
I was researching some other issues last night and came across this tidbit at Spotmau. As I mentioned in my previous BootCamp post, I manually updated boot.ini to fix a partition issue.
Alternatively, one boots with the XP install disc and select the Recovery console. Temporarily remove the system, hidden, and read-only flags from boot.ini. Delete boot.ini. Run bootcfg /rebuild to create a new boot.ini file, and scan drives for Windows installations to add to the boot loader.
One should be able to remove all the attributes at once using the command attirb -h -r -s c:\boot.ini. Also, instead of deleting it, I would rename it, such as to bootini.old, until the system is working properly.
