I have an iBook G4@800 MHz with 640 MB RAM, a BTO 60 GB HD and Airport Extreme (802.11g) card.
Syncing iCal and Address Book data to my Sony Ericsson T68i using my Kensington Bluetooth USB dongle (was stupid enough to NOT get the built-in Bluetooth module)
Have set up an Airport Express connected to my ADSL router and a ONKYO surround receiver. (Also have an old Airport Base, so my girlfriend can connect her Pismo with its Airport (802.11b) card.)
I also have a green iPod mini 1G which is in use every day, could not live without it...

That's a sweet set up (mine's almost exactly the same
) Just one question, couldn't the Pismo use the Express? Why do you need an old Airport? I've only ever used 802.11g stuff on my network so I haven't ever had any troubles.
Here's my penis enlargement:

Yamaha AX-496 and home made speakers
So that's pretty much it.

The Pismos only use the old type Airport cards, which is 802.11b. Of course the Pismo could use the express, as 802.11g is backwards compatible with b, but the problem with this is that when one single 802.11b device connects to a g-network ALL connections scales down to b-speed. Therefore I've sat the Airport Express to g-only.mad jew said:That's a sweet set up (mine's almost exactly the same
Naturally, I don't really get any advantages from this, since my ADSL at 1.5 Mbps is slower than even b-speed, 11 Mbps theoretically about 5.5 Mbps in practice, but what the he...y I had an old Airport Base (on loan) and two wireless networks in the living room, both covering the whole house on seperate channels, are cooler than just one. Only one WiFi network is just so ordinary...

Her Laptop

I'm trying to get her to sell/trade it to get a 12" PB or iBook, but since she only bought it last year she feels obligated to keep it awhile. Oh well.

In addition, have a PS2, modded XBOX, and various PDAs in some degree of disuse or disrepair.

I use the 12" PB as my primary computer - no problems. Usually just use it with an Apple Blootooth mouse but also have a Graphire2 tablet and mouse for Photoshop Elements image editing. Occasionally hook up my PB to our Dell 17" CRT monitor but that puts the our PC desktop out of action so I don't usually bother but I'd love an Apple flat panel display.. dreaming on...
All gaming done on my GameCube
