I'm freakin sick of the ITMS. :mad:
I love iTunes and my iPod, but purchasing music that can only be put on an iPod is crap. There may be a better player out later which I want to go to and then *poof* my ITMS purchased tracks are crap.

It's (significantly) cheaper.
It's better.
'Nuff said.
AllofMP3 is exactly how all music selling sites should be. The possibility to choose exact what quality you want is great, no DRM is great, the price is of course also great.
If only the artists would get paid it would be perfect. :cool:

what was I supposed to do? what forever for a reply that will never come just because it was posted on the wrong part of the forum?!
Come on!.. this is not corrective action, this is all the way rude.. :mad:

The pixel sleeve completely covers the air. It's not to tight but a good fit. I would recommend. The lining is really soft micro fibre kind of thing. It also has no zip so no chance of scratching the mba!

We seem to be learning more and more about what Leopard offers as time goes by which is excellent news.
I, personally, am excited about Resolution Independace. That'll be sweet.
I too am excited over this. We do a lot of kiosk systems and occasionally cater interactive systems to the diabled and visually imapired. It's hard to supply decent LCD monitors for this application with their fixed resolutions and the limitations of OSX, Windows and Linux in terms of element sizes within the OS. Hopefully this will bring us one more tool we can use in this regard -- 30" displays running at full resolution with the OS and video card doing the scaling to display an alternative resolution rather than the monitor just stretching it into blurry oblivion. Although the current 30" monitors displaying 1280x800 work great in this regard as it is. but a more elegant solution is highly welcome and because 1280x800 via doubled H and V resolution isn't always the answer.

I'm just hoping they at least give us the OPTION to download HD movies soon (not for this product obviously, but just in general). Just like they have options for watching trailers, we should be able to download the HD version of a movie if we want to/our bandwidth can allow it. I'd actually buy movies of iTunes if this was the case!
I can only assume that we will see the current video resolution (which was only offered just recently) being offered for quite a while. We heard the same complaint with audio since they started offering music downloads without much, if any, increase in quality from Apple (maybe better compression algorithms but I don't think bigger files because of higher bit rates).
I do believe that the resolution that they sell on iTunes (640x480) hints towards what the resolution of this 'video' iPod will be. I'm sure that this decision was made with this device in mind.
Does anybody know what size screen this resolution would imply? How small can/should technology allow a 640x480 screen be?

My wife and I were at home. For some reason she had the urge to turn on the TV. We stayed glued to the TV for hours. Like others watching history unfold before our very eyes.
Our church had a special prayer for the 9/11 victims today.

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.
Exactly. This is a continuation of the dumbing-down (and I don't mean that in a bad way) of computing. Most people don't need a huge amount of storage or blazing-fast processors. They need a computer for tooling around on the Web, email, basic work tasks like spreadsheets and word processing, and fun tasks like photos and music. If a computer can do all this at a good price, with a very long battery life, and looks great doing it, then it's good enough. Apple was smart to strip out many of the expensive components in order to reduce the price, without reducing functionality for the average user.

The new multi touch gestures are pretty cool. Safari got a lot of really pretty animations to go with the multi-touch gestures... although its more bugged than simply using the backwards and forwards buttons.

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.

Your function example is a sum of squares, hence the a*a +b*b etc
Sum of cubes is a*a*a +b*b*b etc and that will give your 11k as per what he got
For your assignment, my approach would be to have 3 variables set to sum of squares, sum of cubes, and mean of squares and print out the desired variable to give your answer if the integers are within the desired range

I want the Newton BIC listed. I'd wager that gets a hefty price tag.

I guess they wanted to inconvenience them millions of subscribers just to delay the small minority of AT&T customers willing to jump ship :rolleyes:
Its more likely an unscheduled outage, or problem with their system
I would go with the unscheduled outage. Could they had normal maintenance plan so there was reduced servers to handle the load at the time and then the ones that were online got over loaded. You see maintenance at around that after midnight when the normal drops.
People buying the Verizon iPhone were logging in to check stuff like you pushed the web stuff beyond what they had the power to handle at the time.

It took them longer than I expected...
Dropping sales since and foreboding news back then from GameStop when they stopped selling them due to lacking demand.

People were curious on how they relock your device. How is this possible? Isn't once it is unlocked it's unlocked? I guess apple does it differently than other phones like I suspected.

I have a 2006 mini I use as an HTPC, the fan is louder than I'd like it to be but it's running at a normal RPM so there's not much I can do about it. My sister has a 2010 mini and I noticed it's much quieter than mine, nearly silent. So I was wondering if anyone knows if the fan model used in the 2010 would work in a 2006?
Maybe you already tried this, but I have a 2005 mini and I opened it yesterday, because I never did it and was curious. Ofcourse there was a bunch of dust inside it and after giving it a quick blowthrough it was much quieter. Probably means you 1) need less RPM to cool sufficiently (although you said it's running at normal frequency), and 2) less noise will be generated at the same RPM level. Get some decent pressured air (canned or perhaps some sort of pump) and you'll get probably better results than I did.
If you (like I did) never cleaned it, it's only to be expected that your mini makes more noise than your sisters.

Good... bye!
The thing here is CHOICE!
YOU CHOOSE to own an iPhone or NOT!
There are a bazillion choices now!
Just JB the darn thing... takes 3 minutes!
Get over it!
Can an iphone4 on 4.3.1 that's never been jailbroken still be JB and unlocked? I lose track of where things are at now, but thought the window had closed (for the time being) for first time jailbreaking/unlocking.

I don't intend to run the dump command as a root, but was kinda using the root account while I was testing all the backup commands to make sure things don't get the permission issue.
The weird thing is that the script worked just find from command line, but did nothing from the cronjob.
Add 2>&1 to the end of your command in cron and check the log.
The main difference here is that running from a shell, you have a totally different environment versus what cron runs from.

That sucks. Which college/university?
University of Kansas.
I sent a couple emails out hoping to get more information as to why the Macs were removed and were they've gone to. They might be in another public lab now. They'll probably say the machines weren't getting much use and the PC's were more "in-demand" which is true. But that's all FUD on student's part. When the lab would get busy people would be standing around waiting for PC's to become available while Macs sat unused. I know some of them were there to use the internet of type on their papers in Word. But most don't know the Word files are cross platform compatable and people always thought the Macs were slow because web pages took so long to pull up in IE (few realised the Safari icon on the dock would solve that).
One issue was the univeristy resticting use of computers to everyone having to log in to the network. The script they had doing this on the Macs made them get stuck quite often with a barber-pole progress bar or sometimes a beach ball. And forced power off was the only way to escape. So many people I believe got the idea the macs were crash-prone. Never had any problems with them before they added that stupid security.

Was reading the article on the Dell monitor posted and it mentioned a new display connector - ughhh!
I don't know if this is good or bad, only that I have 2 Apple monitors with ADC connectors. Monitors are still good but I am running out of computers which they can connect to!
