Time capsule is meant to be a backup drive...Did you delete all your music off your laptop as soon as it was on your TC?

There are many programs that will copy music off your iphone or ipod to hard drive. google it, very easy and quick to do. I'd use your next TC as intended!

Faster Apple... Can't wait to FaceTime call my dad!

Is it worth this price or not?

Short answer: yes, it's a decent price for that machine assuming it has no cosmetic or functional issues.

Thinking of buying it but not sure yet... (I use an intel MacBook too, but I have always wanted a PowerPC mac :p)

If you just want a machine to fool around with for fun, this one ain't bad - but bear in mind that it is almost a technological orphan from Apple's perspective, as Apple is continuously moving away from supporting the PowerPC. It can't run the most current OS anymore, and software updates will dry up soon. It's still a good second machine though.

is it just a matter of creating it on the computer, finding a host and going from there/ what makes a good host/ I want to be able to sell and reach lots of people. I have such a good product!

There are heaps of good hosts out there, for example TJR Networks (http://www.tjrnetworks.com) and Myacen (http://www.myacen.com), but there are also some pretty dodgy ones who take people's money and disappear overnight. The key things you should look for in a good host is uptime, server load, how easy it is to contact tech support and how long they have been around for. I would suggest avoiding any host that has been around for less than six months and definitely avoid those with super low prices as well as those that claim to offer "unlimited" space and bandwidth.

my humble little imac is up there, but i do a lot more on this machine than my friends with brand new pc's do!

Change it to a bidding thing:D I would take down the buy it now and set it to .01 cents. You might get bids that way.

I have 2 external hard drives, both OWC mercury elite pros. I initially wanted to use one of them as a time machine and the other as my backup for music, media, and the songs i record/my song ideas. However, a friend of mine who is a bit more experienced with recording has told me that i need a dedicated drive to record to. Thus, I should put GarageBand onto one of my externals so as not to use the system drive, he says. I'm not sure if this is even possible. I could get logic and put it on there, but, I'm not proficient enough with it yet to purchase it.

One of the drives is a 1TB and the other is 320g. Any advice as to what I can do? I was thinking if I can't get the software on one of them to use as a dedicated drive, then I could just stick with my original plan and run GarageBand off the system drive and save all my ideas/songs onto the external drive.

What do you all think?

This years comic wasn't their best stuff, but it was still a decent effort. Here is their 2008 and 2009 versions. Sony didn't get a comic last year...

can't you just download software and take 2 minutes to do it by yourself?

Thanks, Dante. Your patient elucidation is much appreciated. I use my desktop for music production, and my laptop for everything else, including photoshop stuff for CD covers, etc.; the next step is consolidation into a single machine (now that I've sold off a ton of synth hardware and am more in-the-box). The color accuracy is obviously not the be-all and end-all for my applications, but I wouldn't want to save a couple of bucks and end up with something I couldn't use in everything I do.

I saw the HP in person today for the first time, and it does look great. As for the form factor element of the equation, I like the fact that it can be lowered on its stand to where the screen is almost sitting on the tabletop, and the screen can be turned L-R without moving the stand. I have a nice couch off to the side of my rig, where I'd like to be able to turn a 30" monitor for an occasional evening's DVD-viewing with friends, and hadn't yet figured out how this would "go" with an ACD (this studio arrangement is new; previously my couch was behind the main seating position at the rig).

Most of the above is doubtless more than you need or care to know, but let me finish my blathering by thanking you again. Best,

vic

???:(

thanks all. I'm aware of the apple refurbs (my mini and macbook are refurbs. its a great way to save some cash!)

Thanks for the advice all. iLife is definitely required so I think he will just go for a standard version

thanks again

How are the current displays old tech? I think you are confusing 'old tech' with 'original release date a long time ago but silent incremental updates since'.

The currents ACDs use the LG.Philips S-IPS panel. In other words 'about the best of new tech' as opposed to 'old tech'. I challenge you to find a 23"/24" display that uses a comparable panel for under $1000 . The newer tech is the H-IPS panel which is the monitor that you'll find in your iMac that has 'serious colour gradient problems' (send it back, it's a dud). About the only monitor you'll find with the H-IPS is the NEC 24" that comes in at around $1100 .

Glossy displays are not for pros so they will only be an option on the ACD's. Glossy displays are better than matte ones in the same way that a lollipop is tastier than a truffle.

The only update I can see happening soon would be to use the latest H-IPS panel with more inputs but Apple won't do that if it's not available for the 30" as well (is it anyone?).

Apple's competition with the highend 23/24" monitors is the NEC. Since the Apple is $200- $300 cheaper and there is no/few other comparable displays(s) in the price range I'd consider it a bargain at the moment unless you have other issues such as inputs.

If Apple release new ACDs I suspect the 23/24" will be more expensive, but you'll have a chance to get the present ACD for a bargain. Other than that I think the 23" ACD is a safe buy.

Yep -- You got this right.

Had a stock 2009 15" MacBook Pro and running Photoshop CS5 became a chore and often plugins would crash it.

Just got the new 27" iMac, stock $1699 model. Runs Photoshop SO much faster. Made a little video: iMac output to my 46" Vizio tv via Thunderbolt MiniDisplayPort-HDMI adapter. While running Photoshop CS5, ran Topaz Adjust and Alien Skin Exposure...plugins and movie trailer ran smooth, no hiccups, def couldn't do this with my 2009 15" Macbook Pro ;)

I'm in Houston and I'm looking to trade my 64gb white verizon for a AT&T 64gb.

im pretty sure u can buy like a kit apple sells to test your knowledge of apple products and duties that come with the job or something like that to see if u are able to handle the Position of GENIUS. But i'm sure they will ask you why you want the job, why do you think you deserve it, do you have good people skills etc. and to answer the p.s. personally i cant stand super fresh haircuts, and idk about the shaving.

As implied before, "wallah" is supposed to be "voila".

@ Patrick - Answer for all your questions is YES. But it doesnt work in WebView only.

As previously suggested, maybe there's some character in the URL that WebView doesn't like. The most unusual URL I ever load is:
@"http://www.highschoolsports.net/defaultcal.cfm?ct=s&schoolid=KS6621212106&spt=4&lvl=-1&divison=-1&timeoffset=300"

which works fine.

Maybe try simpler versions of your URL, starting with something basic and working up, adding complexity until it breaks. Start with:
@"https://xxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com/"

and see if that works.

Like most Australians, I slept through it. I woke up to the radio talking about planes crashing and terrorist attacks. I thought "there's not a war on, is there?" I na�vely thought "I wonder if the news is still on" so turned on the TV. I don't think I moved from the TV for about 8 hours.

The clich� is "it changed the world" but it really did.

thank you for the review!!! really helpful !:cool:

Most of us didn't need an Apple rep to tell us it was a fake. Spymac will always be disreputable in my mind because of that incident.

Who was the first real "teen" poster here?

What was vniows first user name?
