400 smackers for Ultimate? :mad:
My wallet hurts.
With few added bucks and student's discount, you can buy a Mini with Leopard and iLife preinstalled in that amount, or iPod Video, or Xbox 360, or ..............I love my Mac ;)

I think that the more, the merrier.
I'd would be cool to keep the hype about the iPod high, including a completely new funcionality in mp3 players. IMHO, it would capitalize more sales to Apple and a whole knew interest in iPods.
Specially now that Microsoft confirmed the Zune...

It's true that a high megapixel count is not anything like the most important factor about a camera, but everything else being equal more megapixels is better than fewer megapixels. I seriously doubt Apple is going to add megapixels just for the number on the specs list.
I think the point is that the technical specs of a photo, and the camera it was taken on, can't make a badly lit, poorly composed photo a good one, and (within reason) can't totally destroy the work of a good photographer who knows what they are doing but only had access to a 'lesser' camera.
Another way of looking at it might be that Leonardo da Vinci could do more impressive work with a pencil and paper than many people could do with a studio full of photoshop artists.
Fair enough.
I think that was common sense and wasn't worth mentioning in any context.

Just going to put this right here:
"What would I do? I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders" -Michael Dell
I do love that quote. Of all the Winbox makers Dell seems to be the one with the bleakest future. I'm hoping HP can do something with Palm and not waste an opportunity to increase diversity in the market. But this is HP, they seem more interested in making printers (which are still a pain to set up) than innovating in the computer market. (I'd love it if they'd innovate in the printer market and make a network printer that isn't a complete pain.)

It's not every Beatles song and they only have the publishing rights.
The publishing rights are what was being discussed and it's every song in the Beatles catalog. There are other songs by the Beatles and the individual artists which are not part of the catalog being discussed. I wasn't referring to those, or the mechanical rights.

I really enjoyed ODST as well. I've used the ODST helmet for a long time. I used it all through Halo 3, and was glad to see it come back in Reach. The shoulders look ace as well, so that works. You should, if you haven't already, pick up Buck for your "Firefight Voice" in the Armory. Next to Auntie Dot, he is the best one. Some great lines.
Yep, already purchased the Buck firefight voice, and I'm slowly unlocking all the bits of ODST armor available as I get enough credits/rank.

after they took such a strong step away from the metal inclosures.. would they really switch back a year later? good call
I think you are right. Didn't it just get axed in europe? That may lend some credence to the iSight in the Cinema Displays.
If they put an iSight in the Cinema Displays and axe the stand alone iSight that would mean you would have to buy an ACD just to use the video stuff with the Powermac/Mac pro AND the mini. I wouldn't put it past them to do that but it would kinda suck. There have also been rumors of the IR reciever for Front Row being put in the ACD. If they didn't also put one on the Mac Pro, Front Row would be useless without an ACD hooked up. I agree with the above poster that we are all reading too much into the poster but oh well, it's fun. We'll all find out soon enough.

Why such a great camera on the iphone and such loser ones on the ipad?
iPhones are actually more expensive to make than iPads. Thats why you are forced to make a contract with a carrier because when you first get your phone, the carriers are loosing money. It takes two whole months for the carriers to make back all the money they spent on an iPhone.
That is why the iPhone can be cheaper and have better specs than an iPad could ever have. That is why I believe that the iPhone is actually Apples most advanced technology!

Here is my setup
http://i1223.photobucket.com/albums/dd515/nikumba/room.jpg
Dell 2001FP on the left hooked up to my Win7 machine under the desk
Samsun SyncMaster 2494HS on the right, now connected to my MBP that is over on the left of the desk, using a standard PC keyboard and mouse with the MBP at the moment.
The little black keyboard is a USB with trackball hooked up to the Win7 machine.
So far this is an experiment to use my MBP as my primary machine rather than just a laptop, so far so good, have sorted most things out I think.
I will eventually get rid of the Dell and but the MBP on the stand and have the Win7 machine hooked up to the VGA input on the Samsung monitor
Also ignore the dust :)
Kimbie
If you're getting the rid of the Dell monitor, as long as it's still in working condition, let me know… I'm interested :D

Do you have a link to that wallpaper on your MacBook Pro?
Thanks!

Is that the verdict on the screw issue?
Yes, it is. The screw has always been there. I will say that ours is no longer flush like it was at first. Brushing your hand over it means you feel the screw whereas in May we could not. So, the screw may be more noticeable if this is true for others, as well. I could see it being very annoying for some.

I upgraded to CS5 Master collection like less than a year ago for $1200...WTF? Now they want me to pay $500 for another upgrade??? WHAT TO THE F!!!???
After our vacation to safari in Kenya, we flew our safari driver to America because he seemed very fascinated with america. One of the first things he noticed was "why are all the violent crimes on the media by blacks?"
His words, not mine.
From my two weeks in Kenya and from the testimony of my aunt and uncle who have been there for two years, I understand that Black culture is much more family oriented in Kenya. For the most part the culture is based on the family system and people behave (which is astounding bc all the poverty, packed urban living, and lack of reliable law enforcement would all seem to suggest it would be the other way around)

It's gorgeous.

Wow! Looks pretty sweet! How long did it take to go through your library and determine the songs for 'gapless' playback?
Havent installed just yet :)

I highly doubt 4.4 will be a CMDA only version. If you think about it, the 4.3.1 update hits currently i'm guessing around 90% of iPhone 4. So obviously there is more rush to get 90% of iPhone 4s updated compared to 5%.
I would think Apple prefer to keep their GSM model supported more. Because of the hugely larger user base.

Let's see here, they sell 40% of all DVD sales and they lose on them, and somehow losing those sales costs them money? Sounds like they have a plan themselves and are keeping the competitors at bay while they gestate it.
You make some great points and I think the key to a successful reduction in military spending is to reduce it over time. A sudden 30-50% cut in the budget would be horrific and not just for a military program but in any program. But why not aim to reduce it from 600 billion today, to 400 billion fifteen years from now? The key is discipline but such a trait is not something I have seen Washington demonstrate. :(
Even I would support something along these lines ... can't argue with this sort of rational reductions :cool:

Did you just insult me and then agree with what I said?
Nope, he said the opposite of what you said.
You said the once the software is easy everyone will be able to edit well.
He said that editing well has nothing to do with how well you know the software.

just download it, screw those multinational corporations. I'm already getting ripped off by Apple on my extremely overrated and overpriced MacPro. (didn't payed for it myself got it from work) Maybe some of the fanboys should stop kissing Jobs *** and glorify everything his corporation does or says. Why not complain about all the thousands of dollars Apple is ripping off from you by shipping outdated hardware in new machines, comes to think that lately every freaking thing Apple releases has some kind of problem...screen, video card,...etc. :eek:
Apple is charging hilariously high prices for memory...when someone comments on it here the fanboys go "...Oh but you shouldn't by memory from Apple" well ok than why the hell are you guys complaining that Adobe or whatever other company than Apple is overcharging..why not apply the same philosophy, if you feel like Adobe is overcharging you than go Coral or whatever other software that fits your needs and stop complaining.
Or just D O W N L O A D it, but i guess the elite or professionals you guys are don't get involved in anything this shocking wright.

Finland store still up as well, even though our neighbours in Sweden have their store down already. C'mon Finland & U.S. stores, give up! :D
Finland down. Aye.
Finland down. Aye.
the key issue in my case was that my macbook couldn't go to sleep or be closed, everytime it woke up, it wouldn't last longer than 3 seconds and then shut down and all of the other known symptoms.
I ran the firmware upgrade and it works fine now, it's not hot or anything and the fans seem to be working at a normal pace.
Well, I am grateful for the fact that I don't have to turn in the mac for 5 days or more for servicing... I make a living out of this thingy...:D

All I want is a real graphics card.
Me too, but I doubt that we will see it....:cool:
