hi back on the list after sometime away. I hope this issue hasn't been covered recently. My tibook screen has developed some black gunk on its screen, no doubt from the keyboard, that is impossible to remove with ordinary cleaners (I don't want to melt the screen here...) I use a piece of paper religiously now when I close the screen but does anyone know how I can get rid of it ? Also...a bit of the subject for this list but.... I have been trying to replace/remove the apple startup chime. I have tried applescript on os9 to semi-succesfully control the tibook vol. but is there a better way in OSX? thanks - guy yugyug at mail.com -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup
