@streakmachine It's a good 'un.
@matigo Of course not. Useless turds. And this is with a population base of under 25 million.
@jextxadore Yep. If you get a pop-up saying the accessory is drawing too much power.
@jextxadore It's worse. But we have until Sept 23 to complete it. Allegedly.

@jextxadore Apple have released a new Lightning-to-USB adaptor with a Lightning in port so it's actually possible, using the USB-to-Ethernet adaptor, to connect an iPad via Ethernet. It supports a range of hgher-powered USB devices.
@matigo To get it onto the 2008 MBP I just copied the installer from another MBP over to the Applications folder via FireWire 800 in Target disk mode. Then restarted the old MBP & ran the installer as though it had been downloaded.
I knew this would happen. Last night, around 8 pm I observed that my FTTN connection had dropped from 23.5 Mbps download to about 9 Mbps, which was marginally slower than my previous ADSL2+ connection. That's 'cos everybody is using it, cable internet in this part of the world is still in its infancy (and is FTTN, rather than FTTP) and there's congestion on the nodes or inlet pipes or something. It was back at 23.5 Mbps some three hours later, though. I'm paying for 25 down and 5 up.
@matigo Should work, after a fashion. I have El Crapitan installed on a 2008 MBP, but that's with a fast SSD & 6 GB of RAM.
@matigo I know for a fact that Snow Leopard, Lion & Mountain Lion can be bought from the Australian Apple store. http://www.apple.com/au/shop/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
