I have a 500mhz dual processor G4 overclocked to 550 mhz. Unfortunately, I jumped into the poor house on this computer and have to run both internet apps as well as my music apps on the same computer. Would the best way to go about this be to partition the hard drive or run it all together and use different extension settings?
I am so glad that I had the sense at the time to buy an external drive for audio Any help would be appreciated. |

I know Norton 7.0 (the OS X version) got decidedly average reviews when it was released a few months ago, but it might do the job for you. Drive 10 is certainly an option.
Another possibility (pay attention, this is complicated!), is that if you get AppleCare you get a copy of TechTool Deluxe in the box. This is an OS 9 app made by Micromat, who make Drive 10 (which is their OS X disk utility). You can then cross-grade to Drive 10 at a reduced rate. By the way, I'm not sure if TechTool Deluxe has a defragging option for OS 9 - I know TechTool Pro (which I've got) doesn't. Coo, it's complicated, innit? General question to everyone: does anyone actually have AppleCare for their Mac? My year's free guarantee is almost up, so I'm wondering if I should stump up the cash for two extra year's cover. |
