There seems to be this unwritten internet rule that when you can't win arguments on current events, you fall back on "theoreticals".
...A corollary of which is, if it involves money, be sure you use the name of some rich person other than Warren Buffett.
(If nobody else has claimed this rule, I hereby dub it Veil's Second (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=9582595&postcount=37) Law. :D )

Is there any way to mute the iPad completely, for real? I'm tired of never being able to open a new program when I need it muted because any given app's settings might require me to turn off the sound separately, even if the iPad is on mute. This is the silliest problem I've ever encountered - there must be a way to mute it system-wide, right?

I've tried VPC 6 in OS 9, running 98SE, 2000, and XP. 98's the fastest of the lot, 2000 comes in second, and XP is ridiculously slow. If you've got a choice between running VPC in 9 or X, run it in 9, it'll perform much better.

I have never tried it, but I would think it would not hurt to ask.

This is a very 'real' issue. If broadband uptake and speeds continue to rise, and consumer acceptance of digital media increases, than higher quality content will be more readily demanded and easier to supply. However, if quality enhancements are too quick, and a consumer must repurchase his or her entire collection (or favourite parts of) too regularly than disatisfaction is felt. It is felt in the frustration of having to spend more time and money re-downloading something that a consumer perceives he or she already owns.
I agree with this statement entirely. While I didn't really expect them to give us free upgrades, I wish they would. What's going to happen when in 6 months they start offering hi-def to go with the iTV? Do they really expect people to buy things three times? If they aren't going to at least offer a discount now, then why should I even buy from their store? Ultimately they never should have released stuff at that bad resolution in the first place. I guess it's just shame on those of us who bought stuff at the low resolution. I don't think it's asking too much for them to offer updates or discounts on already purchased content.

My roommate is taking a geography class in college right now. (Just an FYI, he is an older student in his 30's).
His teacher works for google on their maps. He has slipped in class several times saying Apple is working on putting GPS into the iPod. (He, the teacher, knows this because it is what he does full time for Google).
Anyway, this looks like the GPS in iPhoto is not related to the iPod, but eh you never know, iPhoto does work with the iPod in a way now as it is...

Do you remember USB 1.1? The USB 1.1 port and plug look like a USB 2.0 port and plug, but a USB 1.1 port/plug will not deliver USB 2.0 speeds when one connects a USB 2.0 device to a USB 1.1 interface.
The same goes for the MDP and TB interface.
While TB might look like MDP, they are not the same.

I don't know if you are aware of this.... Can't you wait until June/July for the release of Final Cut Pro X (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/04/13/final-cut-pro-x-demo-nowhere-near-final-version-more-on-final-cut-studio-apps-coming/)? looking at the video demo (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/04/13/video-of-final-cut-pro-x-introduction-now-available/), it seem's awsome...
Not sure what shortcomings will the X version will have compared to the current FCP Studio, since the price difference is huge.
cheers!
Even though FCPX Was just announced there was no word on the other FCS apps....

This will be correct unless the nokia JV with microsoft saves the day for windows mobile
Rumor has it that MS will go dormant (if it hasn't already) and introduce windows 8 with Nokia.
With apple having Lion OS being very similar to iOS (a single iOS on phone and PC), Microsoft might go the same way for their mobile device (making it the same or even closer with windows 8 & windows mobile 8 (or worse windows mobile 7.5 and windows 8) but one OS aka Apple

Over the course of time, mobiles will displace consoles.
We can already mirror the iPad 2 onto HDTVs. Not the best news for dedicated consoles. It's not perfect, but it's a powerful portent. Dedicated devices (as opposed to convergence) are destined to DIE.
iCal this. Then in 2-3 years revisit this comment and be astounded.
Consoles are not going to die. They're now the driving force behind gaming. They're even holding back PC games now, because Game developers want to maximise profit, by making sure their games can run on consoles. This prevents them from pushing the game to it's limits. Because they'd spend loads of money and only be able to run it on high-end PC's. PC Gaming is the one that's getting smaller.
Gaming is now worth more than movies and music, plus consoles don't just do gaming. My Xbox plays my games, connects me with my friends, we're usually in an 8 player voice chat party together so we can chat, and play separate games if we want. I video chat on MSN on my xbox, I rent 1080p movies on it from Zune sometimes, or just sometimes play a DVD on it. Usually it'll be running Media Center, streaming all my music, movies and photographs from my Laptop.
Physical controllers will always make better controllers for most games, minus a few exceptions like Monkey Ball and perhaps racing games, but then the more realistic gaming like Forza or Gran Turismo will require physical controllers, imagine having to look away from the screen to check where handbrake, or the gearstick was on the screen, and when you look back up, you've collided into a wall.
Touchscreen controls on a FPS are just plain horrible. And in terms of performance, portables will always remain behind dedicated consoles because they need to stay light, and obviously portable. Plus battery life would be dire if they crammed it with cutting edge video cards and processors.
And local multiplayer just would not work, sometimes when I don't want to play online, my friends might come over, and we'll play a 4 player race on Forza, or maybe Call of Duty/Halo.
Plus consoles are cheaper than the iPhone and iPad. (carrier subsidised cost plans don't count in this)
I'm not saying portables with a touchscreen are terrible devices, just that consoles are not going to die. And be replaced by portables. All I see is iOS grabbing a bigger share of the portable Market.

true, That's what I am expecting to happen.
They lowered the iPod prices and that opened room for the hi-end Video ipod priced at $400 or $500.
So it might happen. The big question is if they are ready for this on the holiday season or later maybe at MWSF. We'll find out in 2 to 3 weeks if they do not announce it a week or so before Thanksgiving.

My MBA is fine, and that certainly doesn't look right. It's still under warranty, so I'd take it into a store or contact customer services
I bought this BTO MacBook Air online and I'm using it everyday. I think it will take time for time replace the keyboard to me. Another thing is... This baby don't have a removable hard drive, it will give me a hard time for transfering files... :(

I'm not a big fan of Halo, but I'm pretty sure it isn't meant to be released worldwide until the 14th or something...
When Halo 3 was released, someone somehow got a copy of it the day before it was released. They went on Xbox LIVE with it (on the same day) and they were banned until December 31, 9999. I suggest you be careful until the 14th...
You won't be banned. Here is the word from Bungie themselves...
Some of you may even already be playing, courtesy of an eager retail store that couldn�t wait until next Tuesday. But for the vast majority of you, we still have a few official days left and you�re patiently waiting, finger on the trigger.... Tyson also dropped by and wanted us to inform everyone that the Credit wipe we told you about last week has been initiated and that if you've gotten a hold of a legitimate, legally obtained copy of Halo: Reach, please feel free to fire it up and play.
