1) The mini is 2x as expensive as iTV
2) The mini would cost even more with HDMI (at least right now)
3) A lot of consumers just want the simplicity of a set-top box.
4) Others don't want to waste the power of a full computer just as a media center.
Yeah, but if Apple want to compete in the media center market, they will have to produce a small box that will do all....ie put HDMI in Mac Mini (iTV could be a cut down version of this??)

30 hours of 8mm movies. Lemme see...
30 hours times 8 mm divided by the Pacific Decadal Oscillation index, times the interocitor value ... I reckon you'll need about (http://www.digitalrebellion.com/webapps/video_calc.html) 329.59 GB in DV format.
If you need organising, take a look at something like iDive (http://www.aquafadas.com/en/idive-digital-video/index.php). Try the demo.
Any reason you want a NAS rather than directly attached storage?

Based on the benchmarks of the 1.25GHz DDR G4, I'd venture to say that we still do not have a full implementation of DDR memory, though a full implementation of DDR memory would provide little or no boost in most processes. I think that we are merely seeing the advantage of a 166MHz system bus, as opposed to the 133MHz bus that we saw for so long.

Still surprised no replies (other than mine) to this thread. Thought external batteries would be a "hot" topic for MacBook Air's? Is this thread living in the right place/forum/sub-forum?
Also: still trying to figure out which external battery is "best" for me, thoughts welcome, thanks.

Sorry but I don't really understand your reply. I think I get what your getting at.
I will give an example. Joe Smith.
Just say his email is jsmith@blah.com
first time i receive an email from him, i right click his email address at the top of the email and go down to add to address book.
Then I test it by opening a new email, clicking in the TO: section and typing 'Joe'.. It wont find it but if i type 'js' it will find it.
Next I have tried deleting that contact from the address book and opening address book myself. Adding the contact physically through the address book program. Test it, same thing. Only way I can search a name in an email is to open a new email click the address book icon within that email pane and find the user. Which is just another extra step I should have to do. :(

So long Zune and plays for sure, just not sure on what now.
I have no problem with competition and think at the very least Zune kept Apple on their toes, even if just a little. Now Apple has moved on and the iPod likely is to be dust as well with maybe the iPod Touch being the only one to survive.

Using GSP and Iphoto only makes sense if the photo's have the GSP location information as part of the photo. So that mean that the Camera taking the picture has a GSP reciever in it, which is great outside, but GPS does not work indoors
1. The GPS receiver could cache the last known (outdoor) position and use that in the meta tags for the photo.
2. Folks are working on getting GPS to work indoors on a small chip: see <http://www.gpsworld.com/gpsworld/article/articleDetail.jsp?id=3053> especially this paragraph:
In the Taylor system, the GPS receiver is relieved of the burden of searching out the satellite frequencies, demodulating satellite navigation data, and computing satellite coordinates, because this information is provided over a separate wireless link. Of course, in the cell phone environment, a separate wireless link is readily available. Over the last few years, cellular handset makers such as Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, and Qualcomm cooperated in the adoption of standard formats for A-GPS information interchange. We now have A-GPS standards for GSM, CDMA, and US-TDMA wireless technologies.

If I understand you correctly, you don't need a hack. Once you've highlighted the items you want to delete, hit Option-Shift-Delete. You will then get a requester which says something like, "Are you sure you want to permanently delete these items?" And away you go. :)
Hmm... that didn't work for me - when I tried to highlight a subset of files and hit Option-Shift-Delete, nothing happened (this is Panther 10.3.7 BTW). In fact I tried just about every combo of shift/ctrl/option/alt + del with no results.
But assuming I can find the right key combo to delete a subset of highlighted Trash files, I still have the problem of selecting the files based on the date I moved them to the trash, as opposed to create/modified date. I'm still converting over from the Windows world, but one nice feature of the Recycle Bin is the "Date Deleted" column. With that column, I can just open the Recycle Bin, sort by date deleted and whack what I want.
Thanks,
Sean

The advantage it that it's the closes thing to an Apple console out there. It might not have the same games as the X Box and PS3, but it's like an Apple console. How cool is that. It's like the spending the whole day playing an Apple console. The thought should get your bacon sizzling.
Are you being facetious?
Honestly, just the fact that Apple made it does not make it any better of an experience. Yes, I do prefer Macs to PCs. But that's cause how the OS works and even some of the implementation of hardware. It being made by Apple just happens to be made by Apple. And the reason I like a lot of Apple things isn't cause they made it, but because they did a good job making it.
But no, it being an apple product does not let it coast on not being just as good or better as something else. It actually has to be just as good or better.
I keep seeing percentages but never the raw numbers. iOS and Android may be increasing their market share but is the market just increasing as far as the number of users? I would guess that iOS and Android aren't leeching customers from traditional handhelds so much as expanding the user base overall and their market share is increasing because that increased user base is only coming from those devices and not from the traditional handhelds (ie DS, PSP, etc.)
Interesting question. But, I think for your argument to work we'd also have to see if the market for handhelds is increasing. For iOS and android not to be taking some sales from other handhelds and still increase in amount of people playing the market itself would have to get bigger (basically they'd be adding to the market people who weren't in the market before).
Plus I'll add the idea that they are increasing in market*share* means that they are an increasing percentage of the overall market for hand helds. Even if that is because they are bringing in new people to the market, most likely that also means Nintendo and Sony are not and just getting the same customers for iOS and Android to be getting more percentage of the marketshare.

Hey Nick, I'm in the same situation as the OP.
I'm going to a concert and I want to try recording some video. Are you absolutely sure the modified speaker box won't make the sound get distorted?
I want to get the juice pack air (since I need the extra battery life) and I want to be sure I get the best sound.
(Remember we're talking about recording video+sound, not playing music or video..I'm sure the speaker box is great for that)

Hi, new to apple products here. Purchased the 4th gen ipod touch and I'm concerned about protecting the front and back. Would buying a zagg invisibleshield full body (front and back) and also pairing it with a hard candy street skin case work? Or do you think the zagg shield on the back would slip out when I try installing it into the case? Any feedback or advice is appreciated. Thanks

so i know everyone always says that apple cant actually tell that you jailbreak you phone if you just restore it, but is this actually true?
i want to know because my home button has been finicky (it sometimes doesnt work), and since I have a warranty i want to make sure that apple will still service the phone if it dies completely.
now i know all of the crazy super pro-jailbreak people will come and be like "no there is absolutely no way that they will be able to tell of course blah blah blah" but does anyone actually know this for certain (proof?)
it seems like they would be able to check some log or something and it will look like you have not used your phone for like a month or however long you had it jailbroken and they will figure it out. or it seems like they would have some other way to detect this. they are apple and they are crazy opposed to jailbreaking so are you completly sure that there is no way they can tell? i really want to jailbreak because it is awesome but i bought the warranty and since my home button might break i want to make sure it will still be covered.

I don't think that people here will clue you in as to how to pirate a piece of software.

I have heard a lot of great things about Audacity, although I've never tried it....
Tom, I understand your frustration, but I guess, I'm not sure why you would expect that every Mac come with exactly the same software complement.... it isn't true anywhere else in the computer industry. Sorry. :(

It was the perfect solution!! Thank you so much, first I connect the display, once my Apple LED Cinema becomes the main and only monitor, I open the lid of my MBP(with out clicking on Detect Display, and the MBP is "inactive") so the vents can cool down the laptop, I could play perfect for hours!
Thank you
Now that you have it all working, what quality are you playing at? High? Extreme? It what? Just curious :-)

I went to get a new motherboard today at a local computer shop.
I asked for a motherboard that supports AM2+ the two computer people behind the front desk looked at me and said ok.
The one lady says AM2 is the brand of the processor, and that it must have some number to it. :rolleyes:
I then asked for a motherboard with the Amd 890X Southbridge. And the lady then said the what?
I said the chipset, she then replied, " Oh yeah some motherboards have co processors that are called chipsets that you could replace.
(Are you kidding me!)
Anyways to end this rant they tried to sell me a Asus motherboard for $120 which I found online for $60, and another motherboard from Asus running the Amd 890X chipset for $190. Which I also found online for $100.
Crazy!
They don't have a clue what they are talking about, and they are extremely overpriced.
Step above scam artists.
Though they were nice enough to print off the spec sheets with the price for me.

I have the ARC-1880i card so I can answer some of your questions
1. Setup. Very straightforward ARECA provides a web interface that is very reliable
2. Reliability. So far I had no problems, I cannot say the same for highpoint, with that card I already had 2 RAID 5 crashes. The areca is handling an array of 4 SSDs on RAID 0 (I perform daily backups for this one to a velociraptor)
3.I just flashed the EFI driver following NANOFROG's advice and with that I was able to boot from the SSD that look as a 480GB image to OS X
4.Cable setup. I have 2 SAS-SATA cables and was able to route them to the second ODD were I have the 4 SSD drives

Hi Guys,
A mac mini (2 months old) connected to a GOOD UPS is now rebooting on it's own 3-4 times a day.
There are log files generated for these events but are too detailed for my understanding.
Is there a simple event viewer (like MS eventvwr.msc) that can show me failed services, failed operations, etc., so I can try and track down what the heck is going on?
Any help would be appreciated.
