Storage is truly a subjective matter. From a long term perspective, it will all depend on your needs & how many images you shoot/ expect to shoot. Anything you do, should have a redundancy back-up, whether it be a duplicate HDD, DVD's or storage online. However, as has also been pointed out, there is no need for Black's/ 7200 drives, when it comes to archiving. Green's/ 5900's are quite sufficient.
The following is my own experience with how I needed to adjust for future growth:
When I switched to Digital SLR's in I invested in a pair of 500GB Seagate Free Agent External HDD's, to back up my images to. In I added a pair of 1TB Seagates in an External Enclosure, and configured them in RAID 1. This device is connected via FW800, and is blazing fast, where as the USB driven Free Agent's, seem to move at a snails pace, though they are USB 2. Up to this point my DSLR's only shot on avg an 8-10MB Raw File, so I wasn't burning through storage, all that fast. However, as newer tech has come out, larger files were inevitable. During the Spring of I added (4) 2TB Caviar Green's in a Gigabit Network Array (NAS), and configured them in RAID 10 (1+0), thus giving me 4TB's of Storage, that I can access from anywhere. During the Fall of I added the 5DMKII to my gear line-up, and well 25MB+ Raw Files, are consuming storage much faster than I had previously. I have since filled up almost 2TB's on the NAS. Aside from all the Storage Arrays, I also have a Mac Pro, and have 3 1TB HDD's in it. Two are linked together in an OSX Raid 1 Config, the other 1TB is purely a scratch disk for CS5/ FCP, with my other non 1TB being my OS.
Based on my experience, and knowing that I will be needing more storage space, more than likely by the Fall of I will be adding 3TB drives to the Mac Pro, and expanding the storage capability of the External Enclosures, with 3TB Drives. Relatively speaking storage is cheap, and its better to have too much storage, than not enough.

I'm impatiently waiting, only difference is I'm not expressing my impatience out loud. A lot of people should try that.
We're in the same boat. Whining about it won't make it go faster, it'll just annoy everyone.

Is it possible that there's a bad connection to the speakers? It sounds like you can only hear audio through headphones... in which case, audio could in fact be being rerouted to the speakers when headphones are unplugged, but broken speakers=no sound. eh?

Well, I'm gonna say definitely creepy, but I assume that's where you were going. I'm not all that fond of the bokeh either, and yet I think it kind of adds to the creepy feel. High likelihood that someone's in a shallow grave back there.
Although I do like using the the rule of thirds usually, I feel this one is fine by the edge. Perhaps even a little closer to the edge would be better so that part of the subject (?) is cut off. Maybe.

Are you sure the X800 had anything to do with it? Because I have one and have no problems putting my computer to sleep.
--Eric
Yes I am sure it's the card. I think mine is faulty. There was a sleep issue problem with the card, however. There's been several ROM updates that have aimed to fixed the problem. Unfortunately, nothing has worked on mine.

The MacBook Air and the iPad are the future of portable computing. Thin, light, fast (SSD). Enough power to get the job done, not so much power you need 3 cooling fans and 3 lbs. of battery to do it.
It's not that the MacBook Air is evolving into a mainstream product. It's the mainstream that's evolving into MacBook Air-like products.
Definitely have to agree with you there. We haven't seen rampant advances in software that have outpaced hardware improvements.
The MBA does music, video, internet, email, photos, etc. very well while still remaining small and light.

unsurprising really. Who can compete with apple? I'm not even sure there's space for microsoft even if they reposition themselves in the smartphone market

I was wondering about subtitles as well. The last three movies I have purchased from itunes, do not have subtitles in them. Needless to say I wasn't real happy to watch these movies on my ipad and realize there were no subtitles for the German. I know the DVDs I have of these movies have either subtitles or they dubbed over the German.

Hello Everyone!
I recently joined MacRumors! Anyway, I want to ask the opinion of everyone.
Do you think the iPod Classic will get an update? Someone stole my iPod August 2010 and I haven't had the money to get a new one. But since it is my birthday, my family told me they'll buy me a new one.
Am really a music person. Am not so much into apps and stuff. But, most of my friends are telling me to just get an iPod touch since it is sooo much better than the iPod classic.
So, I was wondering if anyone can help me decide if I'll buy an iPod now or wait for September? and, which iPod to buy? Classic or Touch.
Thanks!! ;)

Hmm, yeah I think I've heard about that before. Thanks. I'll have to look around to see if there's a way to make it work with my mac, or I guess I could just use windows...
If you have an intel Mac then you may be able to use crossover (http://www.codeweavers.com/products/download_trial_macosx/) to get the windows drivers for the XboX controller to work under Mac OS X. I have used it to make the windows drivers for my Logitech Precision Gamepad to work and it is flawless for that purpose.

Let's face it, Microsoft can't compete. iWork needs a spreadsheet and you'll be hard pressed to find a reason to run anything Microsoft on your mac.
Well, let's say you are working on a Mac (bless you) and all your co-workers are using a PC. Suddenly, you have to work on the same documents (like a .doc, a .ppt or a .xls) Call it "incompatibility"...
I don't like MS but a lot of peoples (over 90%) still do... :rolleyes:

But this card is not weaker !
Much faster and that is why i Dont understand Apple to take the Radeon 9k.
You need ot to build a new card you need to build a flash rom that the card understands the Mac system its not so difficult !
See Terratec the ship Mac os drivers for der PCI sound cards drivers and flash rom and you can use terraec soun cards !
So simply same on graphic cards exspecially Nvidia cards

I need a firewire DVD R/W as, in case of need, I could do the boot by means of it, as my Mac mini is a PowerPC one (I read that only Intel Mac can boot by means of USB optical drives).
By the way, what do you think about the Hamlet HEXD5UA-D DVD R/W ? It has both firewire and usb.

just ridiculous with AT&T, i bought my unlock and im waiting from CutYourSim, i would rather have an official unlock and not jailbreak. I paid for my phone and i have a right to do with it as I please. Traveling over the years having two phones, one being crappy and one being awesome but no useable sucks.
Jailbreaking is not the proper option or even accessible for certain iPhones at certain firmwares. I say pay the unlock for 169 bucks instead of being called owing 1,000 dollars for roaming charges.
What I'm wondering is that how long will this fiasco go for? Will apple shutdown this or will AT&T?

What are the chances of seeing this on e.g. Windows anytime soon? It would really broaden the connections and usefulness of the quite neat piece of app. Anything new on this case?
Apple were going to make the Facetime protocol an open standard. Its up to others to pick it up. Personally, I'm surprised Apple haven't already made a Facetime app for windows.

I believe individuals in a healthy free market generally determine their own fate.
Where does this healthy free market exist? :confused:
It sure isn't America.

If you just want a PPC to play with, get a powermac, they are very cheap. In my opinion, G4 laptops are way over priced, unless you get lucky, like I did with my iBook. I also bought a Powermac 933 mgz Quicksilver, with Leopard installed for only $50.
