2)The nonsense you speak of is why Amazon is killing the iPad as an e-reader. Don't believe me? Go read the tens of thousands of comments about how hard it is to read a book (not a website....not an email...a book) on an iPad.
I know, right? And my telephone makes calls much easier than my iPad.
As for reading on the iPad, I love it. I didn't read a book on my iPad for the first 6 months I owned it. Now I don't ever want to pick up a real book again.

I was thinking about this the other day- scanning work documents to archive on my computer. Plain text can be scanned in B&W, such that PDF's of your documents are very manageable in size- under 100 kb. For most business documents, I think this would be fine (or maybe 4-bit grayscale.)
It would be great if you had an OCR that automatically generated a PDF file with both the original scanned 'image', and the OCR results. This way you'd have both in a single file, and could toss the original knowing you could correct for OCR mistakes later. Of course, these documents would also be Spotlightable.
Xerox has a scanner which seems to be more focused on text documents rather than images. It has a document feeder, seems fast, and I think it's within your budget (I'm an ignorant American so I'm no sure ;))

too bad about the lack of acd updates. i'm not ready to buy one myself, but a friend i work with was buying a new setup for herself, so I told her of the upcoming mac pro refresh and possible acds, but i just told her this morning to go ahead and head up to NH to get a tax free MP (she also gets edu because she takes a few classes every year). In good news she's buying a HP 30" monitor from IT at work for $900. She also claims that ebay has some HP 30"ers for $900 shipped, but i try to stay away from the fleabay these days. Still, it was tough to tell her to pay $800 for a 23" when she could get a 30" for $100 more. The HP is ugly, but she's a designer with a rather picky eye and she used it all day yesterday to test it and just loved the actual screen.
it's not that ugly, and the screen is truly something to behold.

Well that's kinda hypocritical posting in an Apple forum. Apple tries 100x harder to prevent users from jailbreaking than Android\Manufacturers do try to prevent rooting\modding.
i agree they do seem to try harder. i dont think of it as me being hypocritical ( or maybe it is? :) ). i just hold android to a higher standard... it's supposed to be about openness... that's what i feel google intended. if i'm going to get one (which i probably will eventually) i want to be able to do what i want with it without the manufacturer/provider on my back

My modified original plan is for a Mac Pro:
1. 120 SSD for my boot drive, including OS and software: bay 1
2. 320 GB- 500 GB to backup the boot drive: bay 2.
3. 500 GB-750GB drive for photo storage and scratch disc: bay 3
4. the OEM 1 TB to backup the photo/scratch disc drive: bay 4.
...
Another question, SR20DETDOG stated I do not need a 7200 rpm drive for storage and that makes sense, but if I am using the drive as storage and scratch disc, then should I buy a 7200 rpm drive?

It's good - if a bit creepy. Haha.
However, I feel the composition could be improved in my opinion. Try placing the masque along one of the rule-of-thirds cross sections. And, this might not be your taste, but I prefer a more creamy bokeh. I feel this one is a little harsh and makes me wonder if I forgot to put my contacts in.
But overall very creative and interesting. Good job.

Thanks for the responses G and Paul. :)
Yes, to answer your question, yes I do have the iTunes volume on max, so it's not one of those types of issues.. :)
What I find particularly interesting is this information on apple.com/emac
"Speakers of the house - The speakers on the eMac are twice the size � and twice the volume � of the speakers in the 15-inch CRT-based iMac. And we�ve designed speaker grills that perfectly coordinate with the eMac and protect the speakers from prying fingers, pens and paper clips."
If anyone can offer any suggestions or further comments I will greatly appreciate them. Thanks! :)

Okay, here is an update:
I spliced wires to match the mac motherboard connector, and the addition of an 24V adaptor to power the 25V line for the Apple ADC video. see an image of the FrankenPSU here (http://www.systemdisc.com/workarea.jpg)
I flipped on the power strip switch, powering the PS (pin 14 shorted) and the ac adaptor. The fan on the CPU spins, and a motherboard light powers on. The hard disk, however, will not start up with the motherboard connected. Also there is no video output.
I know my voltages for each connector pin are correct, but I have not checked current or paid any attention to rails. I don't know which Mac pin needs an independent +3.3V, for example, and which ATX wires provides it.
I wish I could post on xlr8yourmac, but the forums are closed to new users for some reason.

I have the 2.4ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 13" Mid 2010 Macbook Pro w/ 4gb Ram. I'm thinking of selling it and getting the new 13" Macbook Pros
I'll be doing mostly PS5 and uploading images from my DSLR, is it worth the upgrade?
Or
should I just go with upgrading my ram and get an SSD?

I have a 2009 Mac Mini. I recently upgraded the RAM, and while I was working in the Mini, the Bluetooth antenna cable became detached. I've tried to reconnect it, but the Bluetooth no longer works in the device. This is the extent of my knowledge of the problem.
Unfortunately, the warranty expired a few weeks ago, and regardless of that, I'm the one who hosed it so it's my burden to bear.
One local Mac repair shop here in Austin quoted me "about" $40 plus parts (if necessary) to repair it.
Is that about right? Any former geniuses here know about how much Apple would charge for this out-of-warranty fix?
I will call Apple -- but I want to be prepared, which is why I'm polling this trusted community.

Hello... First Post... Its a little long winded but any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I have a dedicated Power Mac G4 2001/2002 (733mhz 1.5GB Ram single processor) linked up to a specialist large format scanner. The G4 operates solely on OS9.2 as the large format scanners software can only work on OS9.2, but this G4 is starting to struggle, possible capacitor issues. I do not have the scanning software discs so am unable to install them onto another computer, and without this software and OS9.2 I would be unable to use my scanner, massive knightmare that I really want to avoid. Ideally I need to try and clone this G4 onto another G4. I have recently obtained a second Power Mac G4 (733mhz 1.5Gb single processor) but it is operating on OSX and does not have OS9 installed on it.
Q: Is it possible to clone my current Power Mac G4 (the OS9.2 operating system & its specialist scanning software) and make an exact clone onto the Power Mac G4 that currently has OSX installed on it?
I have never cloned a computer before, if the above is possible, then I would so greatly appreciate any step by step instructional advice on the above.
Kind Regards,
tea & cake

Ten Technologies announced a bluetooth-based system that loosely does what you want, although you're not going to be able to get very far from your stereo. And it isn't available yet. :(
http://www.tentechnology.com/
I think your biggest problem is going to be *sending* a signal from the iPod, not receiving it.... Unless you're willing to go with an FM transmitter, which I'm assuming you're not, right?

Check that you're using your ISP's DNS servers. I've seen similar problems where users have changed to a different ISP's DNS for troubleshooting reasons and forgotten to change them back, causing geolocation to return a non-optimal server.

Get the Dropbox app but BE SURE to download their free desktop software too(Mac or PC) and set up a folder on your computer. The app is really only useful if you have that as well.
You really should search this site, there are many other past threads like this that will give you a ton of ideas. But until then, here's a bunch I like.
Dropbox (To sync with your Desktop Dropbox folder)
iTorch4 (flashlight)
AwesomeNote (Can sync with Google Documents)
NewsRack (IF you use it to sign into a Google-Reader Account)
Files Pro (to copy files using USB through iTunes)
Apple's Remote (if you have an AppleTV)
Angry Birds (There are 3: orginal, seasons, or Rio)
Twitter/Linkendin/Facebook/Wordpress (Whatever you do, they probably have an app.)
Harbor Master
Netflix or Hulu+ (if you subscribe to either)

People seem to keep forgetting:
E911 support on cellphones is handled via a built in GPS receiver. Usually users don't know its there, and cannot access it.
This sounds like the iPhone.
E911 GPS: Check
GSM: Check
Music: Check
Camera: Check
Not huge news. The only thing it tells us is the limitation most providers put in place regarding what the GPS is available for is removed.
