One of the best ways to get help with questions about your Mac is to
subscribe to appropriate Mailing
Lists. Most are moderated and therefore are kept focused
and the membership is kept private.
One of the best sources of well moderated and valuable Mac lists is Low
End Mac. There are lists for topics ranging from general discussion
to Vintage Macs to iMacs. A new source is MacLaunch
which where Low End Mac has moved all it's lists to.
Another source of mailing lists is Topica.
Topica is a list server and they have an evergrowing number of lists on
most topics. A couple of the Mac lists I subscribe to have moved there.
They have 20 or so Mac specific lists and the site is searchable.
