i personally believe the MB Air isn't a mainstream laptop, it is a laptop light. I need a CD/DVD and BD optical drive.
apple wont sell it to me, wants to shift people to its ecosystem. ie. get rid of optical drives, to force more people to buy content and software from apple owned stores. ie itunes and app store. So the Air is proof of Apple's future vision possibly. not really mine. yes its light, easy to carry. great! but for those of us who dont mind 5-6 pounds, give us optical drives and Blu-Ray!
sorry... i like a NON-CLOSED ecosystem. I am not a mindless drone. i like options.
i am starting to like the idea of windows more.

Not sure why people think this is bad. Fair use if you ask me.
OTOH it's possibly open to abuse but i think it's worth the risk. I'm not overly keen on DRM stopping people doing what they like with stuff they've paid for. I wouldn't touch a DRM CD for example. All my downloads are from places that don't do DRM (and have at least 320kbps mp3 or better).

I just got my BSE order today (bought it when they did 10% discount + free shipping). I got a open envelope and packing slip, no screen protectors. It appears they didn't seal the envelope when sending, because the adhesive to seal the envelope is unused.
Do you think BSE forgot to put them in there, or someone from the post office jacked em?
Has anyone else received an order like this?
I just received mine and no such thing. Just email them. They have a really good support staff.

you have to stop thinking in computer terms and do it in video terms, I guess your project is for broadcast so you have to render at D1 pal resolution at 25fps

How come I'm really not surprised...maybe it's because I figured this would happen eventually several years ago when Microsoft bought VirtualPC. Too bad that they don't have a version of VirtualPC that runs on x86 hardware...oh, except for the version of VirtualPC for Windows...you can ignore that.
But considering how Microsoft has been dropping its limited Mac line left and right, it's really not too much of a surprise. With the stiff competition from those people who are actually doing some work and coming out with products.
How does Microsoft keep in business? When was the last time they released a major new product that made money? Office 2004? And that was for the Mac!
I certainly could be wrong about some things, but when you consider that Microsoft's two major money makers (Office and Windows) have been in hibernation for several years. Practically any other technology company that sat around that long would have been smeared off of the map!

I've got a 1G 5GB iPod, still in good working condition. I really don't use it much anymore, so i'm looking to sell it. If anyone's interested, make me an offer. I'd be willing to do some sort of trade as well.

Well, the 1.5GHz G4 is out. Yes, it's overclocked, but it appears to be fairly stable. Following the overclockability-to-future-product releases-scale (which has now proved true the last several product announcements), we could easily see 1.5GHz G4s in the next revision.

Hmm, FAT32 only allows for 4GB, right?
Individual files can only be 4 gig in size. The partition itself can be much larger

Didn't know of that one. How does it run? Any problems?
I'm always a little careful when it comes to third party things on OS X as you never know what Apple might do in their next OS update.
That being said, I'm running ZFS systems (BSD/Solaris) for years now and absolutely like the system, never on OS X, though.
It runs on an old but stable release based on onnv_74, which provides zpool version 8 and zfs version 2, so it doesn't include RAID-Z2, RAID-Z3 or any of the newer functions, which is why I am very interested in Ten's Complements up-to-date version. It's an external kext, so it shouldn't suffer from anything when Apple updates Mac OS X.
It's solid in my experience and there have not been a single case of lost data in the project's history (knock on wood) :)
I'm using it on one of our Mac Pro's running Mac OS X Server (10.6) and haven't encountered any problems, other than lacking some features. Well, the most important feature is, of course, Copy-on-Write and the other features that enables the high data integrity. Got to love the zfs snapshot command!

Hi all,
My first post on this site and already I am on the want..
I'm looking to upgrade the HDD of my Mini, current specs below.
I would like to take it up to 1.5TB or 2TB. It is something that is in my sphere of capability so not so worried about the actual doing of it.
Can anyone recommend a HDD that would be suitable and would fit?
Thanks,
Gledders

Yep iPhoto is pretty lame imo.. Aperture is what iPhoto should have been. But I guess Apple gets a little more money selling the 'pro' editor separately rather than including it in the OS package.
I guess for the average p+s photographer like my mom who doesn't even know that she's not stuck with the pictures exactly as rendered from her camera and only wants to do some light cropping and straightening, it's a fine piece of work. But no reason to save all those duplicate files and hog up hdd space, definitely!

You're on AT&T and paying for tethering but the personal hotspot option is not available?
That is correct. I've subscribed to their tethering plan but the personal hotspot item doesnt show up under settings/network. I'm guessing at this point that something about the jailbreak is suppressing this - or perhaps the mywi install?

Instead of buying Microsoft Office, why not give one of the Office clones a try? NeoOffice, LibreOffice or Open Office
I would try these, nice since it is free. If you don't want to download, have you tried something like google docs?
