I called Apple Care tonight for my poor little G3 iBook. :( They say the reason various programs keep crashing is b/c I have only 3 Gigs of HD space left. Only 3 Gigs?!?! Since when did that become a small amount of space?
My poor baby's named Gir 3.1 - if you're not familiar with Invader Zim, Gir is this broken robot that's trying to help take over the world but gets distracted by things like a rubber piggy or a cartoon about the scary monkey. The "3" stands for the third fresh wipe of the whole hard drive, and the ".1" means the first OS upgrade on this particular HD wipe. I expect I'll be back to 4.0 after the next trip to the shop for her.
I'm hoping to get a new desktop PC this summer. Just not enough games for Macs, and my old PC isn't good enough to handle them. :-P Upgrading Gir will happen after that - once I pick out a name for it. :)
