Interesting read here. With the Superbowl approaching, I always like to hear the other news surrounding the game. This is about the power of a Super Bowl ad and how some sponsors have done post-air. Check it out (http://www.tvnewscheck.com/article/2011/02/02/48838/is-a-super-bowl-ad-worth-3m-ask-godaddy):
Since its first Super Bowl ad in GoDaddy has gone from single digits to nearly 50% of market share in domain-name registry. On average, the site says, it has picked up 5 percentage points of market share within the first 48 hours after a Super Bowl ad. It posted almost $1 billion in revenue last year.
The attraction for advertisers is playing to an audience of about 100 million people all at once. The 68 spots were sold out by Fox in October, an indication that companies are more eager than ever to appeal to the masses. Last year, some spots remained unsold until six days before kickoff.

I haven't found anything that works well for Windows. I would recommend that you give MacDrive a try or look a Paragon. Both are well maintained and if there is an issue have tools to help you repair the partition.

That is not strictly true. The MS purchase of Apple shares was little more than a token gesture to show that MS still believed in the company.
Not really. Microsoft had no reason to show that they "believed" in Apple. The investment was a condition of legal settlement. See post #98.

The latest version you can get from iTunes is 3.1.3 which does support the App Store. Not sure why its saying its the most current release though, because anything 1.x is soooo old. I don't even think you have email on that.
Nope... No E Mail...

Could you describe what values you're trying to teach children by designing an old fashioned newspaper?
Why not try to develop a new kind of newspaper or service?
You're not going to print it out on an old-fashioned press after all.
So what's the point you're trying to make?

Does anyone know how high the turnout has been at Thurrock for other Apple launches? Thinking of heading that way as I'm in central London and may fancy better odds (at picking one up on spec) further out...

... I stopped using CDs and DVDs a few years back. Hard drives are just too inexpensive now and it was just too much of a hassle for me to burn sets of photos, store, and keep up with individual discs. With my job I move frequently and it's just another thing to loose. I opted for the simplicity of Time Machine (or similar program) and redundant backups and I'm happy with it. The simplicity and automation really make sure I actually do the backups which is the most important part ;).
I stopped saving non-keepers a few years ago too and it cut down on my workflow a lot. There's nothing wrong with saving everything but I found that I was wasting a lot of time dealing with them and trying to save borderline images. The first thing I do know is go through several culling sessions when I download the camera and cut out everything that's not a "keeper" for me. I delete them and forget them. I find I'm not spending a lot of time on borderline shots and I'm only spending time in post processing on what I thought were the few best shots of the bunch. I do tend to keep more family pictures though because they are more about recording the moment. Hope all this helps.
I can understand how burning a lot of photos would become tedious! Well I learned that backing up one's HDD is just as important as being a good photographer. :) Ironically, I deleted a few photos tonight. They were horrible photos, very blurry and I could not make out what I was taking a picture of. I do not know why I kept them this long!
Utilizing technology is a good thing, but sometimes technology is cumbersome. I will backup to blank media until I get sick of doing it. Sir, thanks for your contribution to my thread. You folks over here are good people, as I do not care what the video editing people think. ;) This thread is like a good women: a keeper! :D

Is there a website where I can go and download (for free) all of the commercials that Apple has ever had? I remember a cool iPhoto commercial with a newborn baby in the hospital, and his/her dad was taking pictures of him/her and using iPhoto to create a slideshow or something...Anyways, is there such a site? Thanks in advance.

Most of us didn't need an Apple rep to tell us it was a fake. Spymac will always be disreputable in my mind because of that incident.

Just bring up your 'stroke' commands box and alter the parameters such as dash and gap sizes (you'll find this drastically alters the flow of the line when you change the actual stroke line width).
Its a case of tailoring the 'fit' of the dashes until you are happy.
You can also try different 'corners' within the same commands box.

Why on Earth would you expect Apple to ship iWork with it's machines for free? iWork is not MS Works - it's already far superior, and it's still a baby. In one or two more revisions, iWork will be a better overall suite of Apps than Office (which frankly, isn't saying much). It's unreasonable to expect Apple to give that away for free.
For the same reason the iLife suite is bundled with every Mac system -- to get people using them, and in the habit of buying the upgrades. I don't understand why Apple thinks this strategy works for iLife but not for iWork. Very short-sighted.

Sorry I was half asleep when I wrote this�
There is a network in place that looks like it was put together by 8 year olds. We have routers that are somehow being used as switches� it�s a mess.
We don�t make that much use of the wired network to be honest. I would like to make more use of it, but, that is not really up to me. This was the first time that I had really looked at the network as it stopped functioning and I was asked to take a look at it.
At the moment there really are no services being hosted (unless you want to count a Time Capsule..), I would however like to add some security to the network, also a few services. Its about 30 computers, 20 phones, 10 misc.
I guess my question here is weather or not the AirPort really has the backbone to handle a network this large. When I have done networks this big I�m usually running it though a gateway to distribute DNS and IP�s to the network and not making use of dedicated router hardware (So I;m usually using an XServe or Mac Pro in place of a router)�
So do you guys think that I need to convince the board here to upgrade to better hardware of should what we have be good?

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?

Thank you for the suggestion. Running FSCK came back with non-repairable errors and now the machine won't boot into OS X. So, I'm going to just put a new hard drive in the computer.
Ah, sorry it turned out that way. And yeah, that's indicative of hardware sector failures. Good thing is though that the hard drive is one of the cheapest components to replace that goes bad.
Edit: Good for you keeping a Time Machine Backup :)

You might want to look stock prices if you doubt his comment about Microsoft. I've had Apple stock less than two years and have over doubled my initial $50K investment.

I'm trying to work this out from the Apple site but am banging my head against a brick wall.
My friend at work is wanting to buy a Mac and some other bits from Apple for his kids to use. One is at Junior School and one at Secondary School..... do they qualify for the Educational Discount??
Everything I see on the Apple website says "I'm over 18..."
Thanks,
Sreedy
If know one knows then I guess I'll ring them.
Online, I think you can only get into the edu part of the store from a verified education server/computer, i.e. one from a school.
Not sure about the process in store for kids.
