Paint Touchup Kit Arrives for PowerBook G4It is a problem known by some PowerBook G4 owners - the paint on the notebook sometimes scratches and chips. If you have owned your PowerBook for more than a few months, you may have already noticed this, even if you are very careful with your laptop. TiPaint has developed a touchup kit to cover up the blemishes and restore the cool factor to the PowerBook G4. TiPaint is a high-durability enamel paint that has been custom color-matched to cover up your PowerBook G4's blemishes. TiPaint also provides an applicator that makes it easy to get the right amount of paint on the problem area, along with simple instructions to help you get the best results. The kit sells for $14.95 and can be purchased from the TiPaint website. New Version of Road Tools' Traveler CoolPad ShippingRoad Tools is now shipping a new version of the original CoolPad. It's basically the same, but the new trapezoidal shape makes it more stable with larger laptops The Traveler CoolPad was designed to easily fit in any laptop bag. Nothing to attach or assemble, laptops run cooler, pivots 360 degrees, works with any laptop, and guaranteed for life. The Podium CoolPad is larger, has adjustable tilt, and weighs about 15 ounces. The stackable risers let you adjust the keyboard incline by 1/2" increments. The Traveler has fixed height and weighs about 9 ounces. Both CoolPads work fine with the largest laptops, and both pivot 360 degrees. Increasing the air space under your laptop allows better heat dissipation. Most laptops dissipate heat through the bottom, and the more air that's allowed to flow under the bottom, the better chance that heat will dissipate. As you know, if you place a running laptop on a bed it will probably overheat, as air will not flow under the bottom. The CoolPad increases the airspace as well as elevating the back. The six small rubber pads on the bottom of the CoolPad really grip - a great tool for air travelers whose laptops slip off tray tables. The CoolPad allows you to easily pivot your laptop so everyone gets to see your dazzling PowerPoint presentation without rubbernecking. You can find your own comfort zone with the rock-solid adjustable keyboard tilt. If you prefer a negative keyboard tilt, just turn the CoolPad around and adjust the height. The base plate's trapezoidal shape and the Lexan risers provide a rock-solid, stable base for serious typists. Furniture friendly rubber feet really grab any surface. The $29.95 adjustable Podium CoolPad is best for full time use on your desk. The smaller, lighter $19.95 Traveler CoolPad is more portable. A bundle deal gives you both for $39.95. All Road Tools products are guaranteed for life. CoolPads are made and assembled in New Hampshire. SleeveCase from SF BagsThe sleek, minimalist SleeveCase keeps your laptop out of harm's

Terra Soft Ships Yellow Dog Linux 2.2Terra Soft Solutions, Inc. is now shipping Yellow Dog Linux 2.2, which it claims is the most mature and complete PowerPC Linux distribution available. Yellow Dog Linux 2.2 offers an array of improvements over v2.1 with the most advanced, stable release of the 2.4 kernel, improved support for the Apple ADC monitors, and accelerated video. The screen brightness and volume control buttons are now supported on NewWorld ROM Apple PowerBooks and iBook computers. And while the latest release of KDE is an appreciated improvement, Gnome has taken a stunning leap forward - giving Mac OS X a run for its money says Terra Soft - exceptional by all standards. A few of the features are:
With movement into high performance computing supported by the release of Black Lab 2.0, YDL now offers 'HPC Node' as a package selection, in addition to 'Base', 'Home/Office', 'Developer Workstation', 'Server', and 'Everything' options. "The means by which this latest YDL release came together clearly demonstrates the cohesion and professional relationships that have grown within the open source community. While our in-house experience plays a significant role in the maturation of YDL, the unified effort of the community continues to make YDL possible. Many thanks to everyone who worked with us," states Dan Burcaw, Terra Soft Solutions CTO.
