    How to install unsigned printer driver in Ventura?

    I have a printer driver for a Samsung ML-2165W laser printer (probably HP product re-branded as Samsung) from the HP website.

    Are there any PPC email clients which will be able to continue using Gmail after 30 May 2022?

    Buried in my spam box this afternoon, I found a repetitive email warning from Google (repetitive, in that the same message was sent to the multiple Gmail accounts I’ve set up since 2004). The warning, in short, is Google is making OAuth 2.0 a mandatory function of accessing one’s Gmail email...

    Filling the driver-gap for legacy hardware

    Last week I came across a pair of old TravelScanPro-scanners I used in my office nearly a decade ago. Tried to hook them to my iBookG4 but obviously there haven't been any drivers provided for Macs at any time. A few weeks ago I purchased a copy of Windows2000pro to be installed with VirtualPC7...
