Ever since chatting to Carly at the first 27 dinner I realised that my blog needed a facelift. So I pulled out an old design I was working on during BarCamp Jozi and fitted into my current layout. It looks a little like the standard “Kubrick” theme – just a little funkier. If there’s enough demand (read: 3 comments) I might just make it for public release.

[...] After staring with no small amount of shame at the screenshot of this blog at the first 27dinner I decided to finally re-theme it. Nothing fancy and pretty similar to the default “Kubrick” Wordpress theme, but I like it. Plus, if you load the page without images it still looks pretty good The theme homepage is here. [...]
I’d love to see this theme released… It does some things I want to take a look at for my own site (which is admittedly minimalist at the moment).
Hey yo MacGeek

@Teekay: ja, “authentic Apple” RAM is more expensive than generic RAM…but the good news is, memory is memory. So if you get the right spec’d memory, it’ll work fine – just phone up your nearest computer store

Cant seem to connect ibook G4 to my telkom adsl. driving me mad as I need to set up the vox Phone.
Please if you know of any Mac tech in Durban who can sort this out I would be extremely grateful.
@Lew: your best best is to phone Telkom – they’re usually pretty good at helping you connect laptops to the internet. It’s probably best if you’re plugged directly into the modem using a network cable. Then you need to configure the modem – something like http://10.0.0.2 with username ‘admin’ password ‘admin’ usually gets you into the modem. Then you need to setup your Telkom ADSL username and password inside the modem config. Then save and restart the modem. Only then you’ll be able to connect to the internet.
Let me know how you got it sorted
Hey,
I deleted some music files from an external hard drive and now I cant remove them from my trash because it says that the files are locked… Do you know how I would go about fixing this? Or can u suggest who I can speak to in Cape Town???
PLEASE can you Help??
@Sarah, right click on a locked file in your trash and choose “Get info”. Under “General” there’s a “Locked” checkbox – untick it…and you’re good to go! The shortcut for “Get info” is Apple+I and if you’d like to do it on multiple files, use Apple+alt+I
