Battery Recall Affects Apple
Posted by: | CommentsYes, Apple used the same battery supplier as Dell for some of their laptop models and, as such, they are doing a recall on batteries as well.

And no, I don’t have to replace mine…
Errata on Entourage Media
Posted by: | CommentsI have it on good authority that the Entourage media part number listed in page 430 of the SBS 2003 Unleashed book (Q56-00005) is no longer available from Microsoft. There is a new SKU for Entourage media from MS fulfillment, but it’s been ‘bundled’ as part of the R2 set, and is not yet available.
The new part number is Q56-00232 Entourage Mac 2004 Mac English Disk Kit CD (this is listed on

I now have on good authority that not only is the new part number available for order, but someone has actually received their copy of the media. Well, it seems that even though someone was able to order the media, it still has yet to get delivered to that person. Plus another person was having difficulty getting the media ordered. So, it’s back to “I’m not sure what the status is” status on the Entourage media.I received confirmation on 10/23/2006 that the Entourage media is happily in the hands of the person who ordered it in mid-September. I think it’s finally out there…
