Google ships not a single phone. It provides a free OS (from which it makes little money) to handset makers that sell phones. None of those handset makers sell a phone as popular as the iPhone, and all of them combined do not make as much money doing so. If one is comparing iOS (all devices) to Android (all devices), recent data suggests iOS is the more widely used.

This is just out today. HTC Thunderbolt outsold iPhone at Verizon. There's goes your cute little theory.
Make no mistake, this is an amazing quarter for Apple, but it's not the only one doing well in the smartphone boon.

The design rocks, but the C2D is a non-starter. My nearly 4 year old faster CPU C2D machine chugs on my iTunes collection, flash, any hi-def. video.
I really have no use for it at this point. I really find it amazing that a 2.16 C2D is OK for they type f computing that I see around me...iTune, videos, huge DPI photos in iPhoto, etc. It literally took hours to import my iTunes library while iTunes was analyzing for volume...
That said, I will be the first to buy a Sandy Bridge MBA...basically my dream machine...
You'll be surprised on how the SSD makes a huge difference. In some ways the MBA seems faster than my current 2011 MBP quad core 15". I'm very tempted to get an SSD to make my MBP fly, except that I need high storage disks (and high storage SSD costs 2 arms, 2 legs, and a head).

Aloha everyone,
I'm not convinced that the Airport Extreme is really worth the $180 price tag, other than it being an Apple product, and I think, uhh KNOW, that Apple rocks. I was wondering about the CD contained with it, however. Apparently it contains the firmware update necessary to enable 802.11n capability in the NICs of all the Core2Duo Macs, of which I have one. What about those of us who either haven't bought, or aren't interested in buying, the Airport Extreme? Has anyone heard any rumors of Apple offering the firmware update through Software Updates? I mean, no offense, but we can find other "pre 802.11n" routers for far less.

I'm going to guess it's trying to play on high settings on such a large resolution. Even some desktop graphics cards would have trouble with that. That's also why it gets so hot. I'd suggest opening the lid after waking it up with the cinema display on if you're going to play games. That won't turn the MBP display on, but it will allow it to vent more heat. Try that, and if it doesn't work, you'll either have to lower the settings or the resolution.

I too hear some subtle and intermitent clicking and whirring noises when the room is very quiet at night and I'm just browsing MacRumors :)
I guess it's normal. This is a new PB too, so the hard drive is new as well.

Why? :confused:
They've held this strategy for over two decades and the only time they were in trouble, financially, was when they abandoned it.
Methinks you know tech a whole lot better than you do how to run a business.
Apple has been the extreme minority in selling personal computers since 1986. Their pc marketshare has been below 10% for how long? 20+ years...and still is even though they are selling like hotcakes.
I like the Macs...I also like the Wintels. And I also, as a consumer, am not going to plunk down $1200+ for a Mac when a $600-$700 PC will allow me to do 100% of the same stuff just using different name-brand-products. :) And other consumers who are out there looking to buy a new computer to surf the web, play music, surf Youtube, upload pix, go to Facebook, use online chat, read email, (and a billion other online activities) are going to ask themselves "why am I spending $1200 for a Mac using Firefox when I can buy a $600 PC using the same Firefox?"
I don't want to go too off topic but suffice to say these days, so much pc time is spent online that you could be using any computer manufacturer/OS in the world that supports Firefox or Safari or IE and you'd have the same experience. Why spend double?

I see you are back in full force. I have been avoiding the whole 6G thing since the performance of most multichannel cards with standard drives is fine. If you are running an array based on SSD drives then I can see the value at this time, but no mechanical drive is going to max out 3G (SATA II) at this time. BTW Nano, running an xserve now, made life so much easier. Have two Sans Digital SAS Chassis, 316X2, dual SAS connectors for 2400MB/S performace, and it has made dealing with raid simple. No more time out errors, no more hard drives dropping out, nothing. Not sure if plunking down $2500 per chassis is worth it but for me with no headaches it was.
Peace,

Using dreamweaver as my design tool, I simply switch to remote view and GET the entire site. If you PUT an empty folder, you could empty your site, so dont do that!!!
If you are archiving, create a new site using the assistant but designate your backup folder as the local folder - ignore the warnings that it doesnt match. When you are finished the local folder is empty, as long as you set up the ftp info the same, follow my above instruction and it will duplicate the entire site, hidden files and all.

use what you have before you go nuts shopping!

I like my desktop like I like my desk top - clean. I use Quicksilver and Spotlight religiously. Hotkeys are beautiful.
Menubar Applications:
- Quicksilver for application launching
- Dropbox for file project sharing
- iMOnTime for assignment and project reminders
- Caffeine to keep my screen awake
- Shion for controlling the lights in my room
- Facebook Notifications for...Facebook...notifications
- Screensharing Monitor (turned on temporarily, forgot to turn off)

I can't seem to save it. I put the cd in the drive, Quicktime opens & does nothing. When I click on File, the only drop downs are, Open URL, Open File and Open Recent....all of the save options are not highlighted.
I know there is something simple that I'm leaving out but have been having a hard time with my brain lately...... please excuse the mess!! :confused::confused:
when I pull up Spotlight, it has it listed down in movies and top hit but again, Quicktime opens full screen and just remains black.
HELP a girl out my friends!! Please
thanks:D

I think its a great comparison! Its a good way to measure performance of the portable and ultra-portable niche. I like the idea of adding the iPad because it it often factored in when you are looking at the $700 - $1200 price range.
I would like to see the speed comparisons between the original MBA with conventional storage vs. MBA Solid State storage vs. MBA with flashed-based storage! That would be an awesome comparison!
I want to see how big of an advantage Flash storage is over SSD. . . If any.

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?

Well, considering you don't seem to understand that once your income is taxed, it is yours to keep, until you choose to spend it, at which time you might owe sales or use taxes.
Your fundamental misunderstanding of how taxes work makes this poll silly. You think taxes are imposed on what you've earned, when point of fact, the cost of doing business (i.e. earning money) is the tax rate, and you get to keep everything post-taxes.
This thread has something to do with taxes?

...well, at least it finally comes with a lifetime warranty.
I used to avoid PNY since they were usually only giving a 2 yr warranty on RAM and flash drives (and I think their flash drives are only still ~2 years).

The thing is, though, that all of this data is used by Final Cut.
I've known professional software to be very very picky about where files are located and relocating them can freak it the **** out.
Currently, I'm not using any RAID solution. So Final Cut recognizes that all these bajillion million files are spread across four drives.
How would I ensure that Final Cut doesn't spaz out and have an anxiety attack over "missing" files?

Absolutely, that is exactly what this is!
Of course it isn't.
That said, a portable device that happens to include a mobile phone radio (and is presumably usable as a phone - that doesn't make it a phone any more than a car is a pick-up truck) would be a possibility.
I'll accept that.
Something like the Nokia 770, but with GPRS/EDGE/UMTS in addition to 802.11. Yeah. I can go with that. Some of the supposed prototyped/patented designs kind look like a Nokia 770 too.
For the reasons I've outlined ad-nausium though, something that competes directly with what the bulk of Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson, etc's, business strikes me as improbable.
But a pocketable gadget that successfully integrates various pieces of personal technology and wireless networking seems, well, it's the kind of thing Apple might call a mobile version of "me" ("me" being the user) wouldn't it? They could call it... Mobile Me...
Now, who has that trademark?

I wonder if we started pooling some money together as a bounty for the first team to jailbreak it, if it would motivate more people to work on it. I wouldn't mind throwing in $20-30.
Either way I know I'm going to donate some to whatever team puts their release out first, it's really cool that these guys put in all their free time to do things like this. I can't wait to play some snes games with the wii classic controller pro on my iPad :D
I hope superbrothers sword and sorcery is good, I just bought it and I'm hoping it's as good as everyone says it is.
Don't think the people that do this, do it for money. Think they do it for the fact they can do it. That is why I think the jbs are always free.

Evidently those that just pick up the iPad and just start playing haven't played far enough. That works but for real newbies there is hope.
Once you get yours launch Safari. In the bookmarks drop down you will find the iPad manual. Every individual item, program, setting or what ever is expalined. At least it is in my iPad1, can't imagine they would take it out. You will of course have to be connected to the internet.
Enjoy your iPad, you will never let yourself be without it.
