I have some old Apple and Machintosh computers (some other different
brand names computers too) here, I reckon at least a dozen old computers. I am sort of kind of looking for a Mac mini with HDMI output port.As reccomended by Ken Dine in one of the WebTV computer discussion newsgroups. Group: alt.discuss.computers (you have to use a WebTV box to get there) Yeah, if somebody has a Good working Mac mini for sale at a 'Good price'?, Good to me anyway. cuhulin |

One cannot predict such events with any precision ... Look what happened in Haiti last year . And that place was seismically quiet for 250 years ! No. Haiti is on a very active fault that has huge earthquakes a lot. "Despite recent seismic quiescence, Haiti has suffered similar devastating earthquakes in the historical past (1701, 1751, 1770 and 1860). Despite this knowledge of historical seismicity, Haiti had no seismograph stations during the main earthquake, so it is impossible to estimate accurately the intensity of ground motions. Nonetheless, the wide range of buildings damaged by the January 12, 2010, earthquake suggests that the ground motions contained seismic energy over a wide range of frequencies. Another earthquake of similar magnitude could strike at any time on the eastern end of the Enriquillo Fault, directly to the south of Port-au-Prince. Reconstruction must take this hazard into account." http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2010/1048/- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Port-au-Prince was not hit so badly since 1751 . The other parts of the island is a different story. |
