For Sale old mac games

lots of old mac games with boxes, basically free. They run on OS 8 and 9, so nothing too modern. If you want 'em they're yours, but you will have to pay for shipping

Apple has forgotten me...

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


So what would you want to see in a so-called "Pro" machine anyway...???
Actually this may vary with the specific profession...???

Barest minimum:
  • expandable/user installable RAM
  • User swappable storage HD and/or SSD
  • useful array of connectors ...
  • etc...

Apple TV Media Server App

Is there an app for Apple TV (free or otherwise) that will connect me to other Macs on my network for steaming various media? I've done a bit of poking but it'd be great to get a recommendation. I don't mind paying if it does a good job!

2011 Macbook Pro Upgrade?

I have a Macbook Pro (13", Early 2011) and I was hoping to upgrade it, as I believe this is one of the models where the parts aren't soldered together, so I can add upgrade some parts. The current specs are:

2.5 GHz Intel core i5
4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 30000 384 MB
320GB HDD

I am thinking of upgrading to 16GB RAM and switching in a 275GB SSD for the HDD. This will cost around $310.

Does anyone know how much of a difference this upgrade will make? Is it worth it to upgrade at this point or should I just invest in another MBP? How does it compare to the likes of a 2014 or 2015 Macbook Pro? Would you recommend someone doing this upgrade them self?

Calgary Lawsuit

Druh Farrell sued by former restaurant owner | Calgary | News | Calgary Sun

I knew all the parties involved in this lawsuit, albeit back in 2000-2002. At that time Druh was just getting started in city politics, and her dad ran a guitar repair business close to where I worked in Kensington. My impression was that she was probably too honest to last in the political game, but she has had quite a few years to devolve within the system.

The Osteria was one of those "in" restaurants. Rocco always seemed extremely volatile and on one occasion came in the shop and threatened a customer for parking in his restaurant parking lot. I really liked his wife, and had pleasant chats with her on a few occasions.

My gut tells me the facts may not match the story line. Will be interesting to follow this as it develops.

Quote:

The application was rejected by city council in a 8-6 vote and the Calgary Planning Commission. The planning commission hearings were marred by allegations of threats and intimidation against a planner and community members.


During a February 2015 meeting, Mike Terrigno, son of the restaurant’s founders, followed a city planner outside the commission room during the hearing — an incident that sparked an investigation by city hall and two "reports of threats" to the Calgary Police Service.
