Music from your perripherals, writing to NTFS, and a Celcom Broadband help

-------------------------
Celcom Broadband ?
-------------------------

If you're a Mac user and just bought a Celcom 3G Broadband usb modem, and can't figure out how to connect it to your Mac, fear not, you're not the only one; it's the manufacturer's fault: these hardware are half baked out of the box.

What you really need to do is download its drivers & software (despite the claim on the box saying that it works with Macs Shotgun.

Our member Popui gives 2 true accounts of his experience with different Celcom broadband wardware, and 2 different solutions to his problems. You might find this useful.

Write to NTFS!
-------------------------

The OS X can support a variety of file systems, but when it comes to NTFS, seasoned users will know that they will be able to read NTFS disks, but they cannot write.

Well, here's a solution, and it's a free one; head over for a read and get rid of those cynical comments from your Windows user friends forever!

Now Macs can read and *WRITE* to NTFS & Fat32 in addition to HFS+ and other file systems; while Windows still can't read HFS+.

-------------------------

A little bit of Off-topic fun, but if you can do this, you'd be considered the ultimate Geek God! Some people managed to rig some scanners and even a floppy disk drive to "sing" a variety of popular tunes. Watch these videos.
