How far can the Powerbook open up?

I am interested in getting a 17" Powerbook to use in our RV. If I mount it on the side of a cabinet and open it up how far will it open?

Hello Benny
That's a really creative idea, congrats. With some more work (building some kind of custom frame), you may have a product idea that you can market.
As it is, though, I dont think it will work. The hinges on the PB are stiff enough to hold the display stable when it's in use, but they don't take excessive effort to open. I don't think they'll work if they have to bear the weight of the base - which is much heavier - instead of the display.
I think what you'd need is some kind of spring-loaded frame for the unit.
Peace

  • How far can the apple n card reach?

    I live in a townhouse community and with the g card I can see 7 to 10 other wireless routers. Some of the access are locked down and some are open. The ones that are open are to far away to have reliable connection. My question is will the update be able to give me further reach to those access point?

    The update will do nothing to improve your range on AB or G, it will enable you to use the N frequency when combined with an N wireless router, will give you significantly better range and connectivity.
    If one of the networks in your area happens to be an N (unlikely because they are so new) then you would most likely have no trouble hacking/logging into it.

  • How far will the extreme reach and how many users can be on there at the same time?

    How far will the airport extreme reach and how many users can be on there at the same time?

    Last question first, since that is the easy one......approximately 50 (fifty) users for wireless depending on how active each user might be.
    The first question is much more difficult, as distance is not really the issue with wireless.....obstructions are the issue.
    A wireless signal can easily travel 300 feet or more with no obstructions in the signal path.
    But, a typical wall of sheetrock or wallboard in a home will absorb....on average....15-20% of the wireless signal. Brick or adobe will obviously absorb much more. A ceiling....because it is thicker....will absorb about 25-35% of the signal.
    So, if the wireless signal must pass through several walls and a ceiling, there won't be much, if any, of the signal left....even though the distance that the signal travels is not great...for example, 20-25 feet.
    Other wireless networks around you at the neighbors can also affect the relative strength of the wireless signal.
    The bottom line....locate the AirPort Extreme where wireless devices will receive a signal with the least amount of obstructions in the signal path. Your actual performance cannot be predicted in advance. You will not know how well the AirPort Extreme works for you until you try it out in your home.
    If you find that the signal does not reach as far as needed,  you will need to add additional "extenders", like an AirPort Express to provide more signal coverage.

  • How far is the range...

    how far can one stream iTunes to an Airport Express from an iMac (e.g., G4) with an internal Airport Extreme Card (Wireless Card Firmware Version: 404.2 (3.90.34.0.p16)). i can only go 20 to 30 feet from my computer. i'd like to stream through 3 rooms out to my backyard which is about 50-60 feet away. can additional airport expresses plugged into the wall function are bridges or signal boosters to get my stream outside? thanks JM

    In the open an Airport can stream to approx 150 feet (however that is a theoretical maximum and I suspect at a longer range there would be dropouts).
    You can use additional Airport Express units to extend the range by configuring a WDS network.

  • HT201364 Xserve (Early 2008) with Snow Leopard 10.6.8: How far can I upgrade ? Can I upgrade to an OS X Server version? Is any OS X Lion version compatible?

    How far can I upgrade ?
    Can I upgrade to an OS X Server version?
    Is any OS X Lion version compatible?

    Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, the computer's also incompatible with Mountain Lion and Mavericks; if desired, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

  • I forgotten my password ,how i can changed or open i pod 2?

    Dear Sir,
    I forgoten my password(4 Digit) ,how i can reset tor open or changed that one.
    at this time i canot open and working .

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPad from the computer to which the iPad is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPad into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

    By the way, many women participate in these forums, so starting a post with "Dear Sir" may unintentionally offend someone. It's best not to presume the gender of the person from whom you will get a response here.

  • How far can i go with spiceworks helpdesk ticketing system?

    No satisfaction form.  You can ask the user to comment on the ticket about the experience before closing it.
    There are plugins and scripts that can enhance or modify different aspects of the system.  Just not on the grand scale you are envisioning.

    hey,
    i have installed spiceworks helpdesk on my network and created a custom but simple form for users to fill when they need any technical support. and i have also activated the email notification (integrating with exchange server)
    but my question is, how far can i go with this helpdesk system? how well and pro can i go with it? can i let the end user submit some kind of a satisfaction form after the technical guy finishes the support? how well can i enhance all both end user and admin experiences with this tool?

  • How far outside the "38 cities" will 4G reach?

    I'm primarily asking about West Lafayette.  I live about 3-4 miles outside of West Lafayette in the city of Lafayette.  Does anyone know how far outside the "city limits" the 4G access will reach?  If I am able to get 4G speeds, I'll hold off on upgrading until the 4G phones come out.  If not, I'll be upgrading at the end of the month.  Looking at Sprints 4G coverage maps, the service seems to reach pretty far outside the city limits.  I know it is different technology and different companies, but I was just curious how this would progress. 
    Thanks

    go to the map feature, and their is a zip code lookup available.  I live outside of Pittsburgh proper by about 25 miles, but my zip is included in the 4G coverage area.  Now I just need the phones to show up!!

  • WRT54G Question on how far does the signal reach?

    Question on how far does the signal reach?
    Like from the system box at home base, could you take the laptop what distance from it? Miles? Or jus a short distance? And what distance if anyone knows?

    My 54G is at the far end of my house in my home office, 80+ feet away thru 4 walls I still get 25% signal, enough for a decent connection. Having an all wood construction house helps a bit. Once I was in my car out in the driveway (~90 ft) and it still worked OK.
    I've got the bigger hi-gain antennas, not sure that they improve the range that much. I didn't really notice much signal gain going from the short ones to the tall ones.

    NO WAY!
    The answer is about 14 BT Forum web pages and there's no way that you could get 14 to download in just 20 minutes so the answer is 14 BT Forum web pages and about 6 hours
    One page, 700KB!!! Come on BT. Please stop taking the mickey!!
