Take it back and have it checked

Stumpy, how you doing?


Yeah, thinking that maybe that would have been a good option. But he has had it for almost 3 months now but hasn't used it for much because he was out to sea the whole time.

I'd love to have it and problems are ok fine with me because I love to learn. He does also, but he gets too tense and then calling me up so it's best for me to figure this out before he has to head back to CA.

Could be bad ram.... You probably should take it in and have it tested.

Take it back and get your son the Alienware he wanted.

Yeah, that'll teach you.

I think I'll do as KarmaGirl suggests. I've noticed that after some update there is an issue that comes about with RAM that is not from Apple...

Something about not all RAM being equal and cuasing system instability so they do a bit check to ensure it is Apple compliant. Though it was bought as it is from Apple, so it could just be a bad stick, the first one probably. I think they address them in order and do not map out bad areas then skip to the next?

anyway...

I love it and will definitly wait for the G4-17 I've been wanting.


heck if I threw out PC's on the first issue that popups up could you imagine how much computing I would do?

You are all a big bunch of Apple haters!

Don't bother taking it back, use it as an ornament. You can't get any decent software for it so that's probably its best use

I actually got the hang of using one.....once....then moved on to the heady challenge of the 'Shuffle stick' [sliderule].....I think both are lost arts [for me]....I now use me fingers....

It's OK Barbie, ah, I mean KarmaGirl!

kidding!!!

My wife threw out all my daughters Barbie things when she was real small and gave away the new stuff in boxes when she heard about that "Maths to Hard" thingy that Talking Barbie would say..

Cracked me up considering my wife is the best Mathematician I know next to my cousin who went to MIT and my Step Brother who does the Stats for all the Miami Sports teams...
