A lot of the time stories are given negative ratings for absolute no reason and the ratings don't serve their purpose very well. I personally think either the ratings system should be removed all together or there should only be a "like"/"positive" option.
This has been brought up before and it hasn't happened yet. Positive/Negative ratings are highly subjective. For example, "Microsoft to Relaunch Windows Slates Again at CES." Some people might vote negative because they don't support any company besides Apple. Some others might vote positive because competition is a major incentive for companies to keep delivering.
So, just because you don't understand individual motivation for voting one way or another doesn't mean there is "absolutely no reason." I agree that the interpretation is ambiguous and I'm not sure what the rating system achieves, though.
Oh, and thumbs down on the "like"/"positive" option. It's the same thing as the current system, and if you don't have a "negative" option that's just weak to begin with.

It was doomed from the start. Live hip hop acts rely heavily on the audience. The one present that day was not ready to "get down" with Kanye more or less sit there and watch it.
At the very least it should have been Kanye performing over a live band, ala
Jay Z with the roots. The 1 Mc and 1 DJ set up was doomed. I don't think the audience had much to do with it not being that great.

And you still haven't responded. Why? You asked a serious question, I responded in a serious fashion, and still no reply...I could say the same about you.
Because some people have morals. Because some people don't vote for things just because they'd enjoy some immediate personal benefit. Because some people see the bigger picture and value personal responsibility.You could equally argue that it is because of fear and an unquestioning willingness to accept authority, especially if that authority dresses every issue in easy-to-differentiate black and white, right and left, right and wrong, and covers it all with a fine dusting of American Exceptionalism and moral certitude.

I did a similar thing recently when I purchased an iMac from my local Apple Store.
I wanted a full keyboard with number pad. The iMac came with the basic
wireless keyboard.
They sold me the full keyboard and then credited me the amount so it
cost $0. I actually left with both keyboards because the original was left
in the iMac box

Another shameful twisting of the facts by 5p.
By the way, the bulk of billy's money is now the property of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. They do have some control over it but it's no longer his and in a way, is a "National Resource".
All rights are irrevocably connected to responsibilities. Why is that so difficult for libertarians to understand?
He has this extreme right view he sees the world through. Warps reality and all context.

Just realized: it should be 5378008 :cool:
By 'upside down' he means rotated 180 degrees, as if it was typed on a calculator display which was then viewed upside down.

Anyone else know why the scroll bar in the diagram is on the left? Should'nt it be on the right hand side of the screen?:confused:
Because the bevel on the right size is used for item selection.

Me again! It's this same project that is giving me trouble. It seems that the map page I am working on loads fine on Macs, but on Windows, a red x comes up where the image map should be. So, I figure it's a coding issue and try and access just the image (a jpeg) itself; works fine on Mac, error in Windows. It's uploaded to the server and everything, it just won't load. My friends with Macs all see it but on my Windows machine I get the error.
Does anyone know why this might happen?
The link to the map (with the codes) is: http://www.mariahplanet.com/ACR/Popup.htm
The link to just the image is: http://www.mariahplanet.com/ACR/ACR_updatedmap.jpg
Thanks guys!!

I don't know if it's the brand or not, but I wouldn't use anything but Toyo Yuden. (Premium Line - haven't tried Value Line)
Try burning a music or video disc. Ignore any errors. Play it back.

hey 100Teraflops glad your getting some good advice, the good monitor is a must for photography, check the dell 2209wa (i think it's still about) or the HP 2310i, both nice monitors, but the internal raid i have is a software raid 1 mirror, works well for my needs. Are you really sure you want to wait for the 'latest' Mac Pro? do you need the latest chipset? there are plenty of great deals on used machines, ideal for photography, save the $$$ on the MP and spend the rest on some quality Lenses, I know a photographer that uses a G5 with no problems :)
remember as firestater states, raid is no back up plan, I use a raid 1 external system as it suits my needs.
Buying an older machine has crossed my mind. I will checkout the monitors, as I am not very picky, at least not yet. Thanks for clarifying your RAID 1 setup, as I am finally grasping the concept of RAID let alone when combined with the Mac Pro.
Also, I have not thought about a used Mac Pro from e-bay etc.., as an Apple refurb is nice, because I have a piece of mind with the warranty and I want to buy one-to-one in order to receive 'accredited' instruction pertaining to OS X, iLife, and all the included goodies. But you are right, I can save a lot of money and buy a camera, some glass, a case, and extra memroy cards on top of a Mac Pro. Food for thought!
I have to contact Apple regarding one-to-one, because I need to know if I can add it after my purchase. I know the web-site says something similar to this: "...with the purchase of a new machine...," but Apple reps have been known to bend the rules. ;) I want a 6 core or 8 core, but I am still thinking that a quad core will suffice for my editing, photography, and software needs. The difference between the aforementioned machines is measured by seconds, for the most part. Did I just talk myself out of a 6 or 8 core? :) Ultimately, I have to decide before Thunderbolt is replaced by Lightningbolt! LOL

Anyone with experience with this product?
I have a G5 that is functioning in a room without a cable hookup. I purchased a Rosewill RNX-N2X USB Wireless Adapter (http://www.rosewill.com/products/1120/productDetail.htm) to connect to my G5 to my wireless router. The install seemed to go well. I setup a profile, entered by password, and the The Rosewill Utility says I have a connection to my router however, in my Mac Network System Preferences page, the USB connection says "USB Ethernet (en1) has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect". Indeed, I am not connected. I have selected Configure using DHCP.
I have read the manual which is not helpful. I plan on calling Rosewill tech support later, but thought I would throw this question out in the meantime hoping to get some easy configuration adjustment advice. Thanks!

Have you tried deleting redsn0w and downloading it again? maybe it's the file. I had a similar problem and replacing the .exe file fixed it for me.
Yes I've tried that several times. I also tried first when the jailbreak was for 4.3.1 and the tried it again when they updated redsnow to jailbreak 4.3.2 (after I updated my device to 4.3.2 of course). I also tried using the iphone firmware stored in my itunes folder and also downloading the firmware from the dv-team link. Same results with every time. Weird!!!
Another thing I should mention was that although my model number indicated I was on the old boot rom as opposed to the fixed I got an error message saying that I was indeed on the fixed boot rom. I restored my device and tried it again using the fix boot rom option. Since then I haven't received that error message but instead what I mentioned above happens. Could this be my problem?

The reason they are working is because the iMac is authorized for all of those accounts under (Store>Authorize this Computer).
I created a brand new Apple ID on another mac, downloaded a free app and copied it to the iMac in my wife's itunes account. The only way I could get the app to load on the iPad was to authorize the iMac to that new Apple ID. If I deauthorize it the app gets deleted on next sync.
kalex - are you working on an iPad 1 or 2 and is it JB?
Mine is not JB
When you did this with your friends iPad is that computer authorized to your apple ID?
Is it possible that some free apps don't enforce the DRM somehow?
I am feeling that this may not work after all:(
