I am from Europe and In two weeks I am going to study in Miami, Florida. And since I'm gonna need an internet access in my apartment I need to know objectively how much will the internet cost me, so I can calculate my spendings and since I can't find any info about internet access providers in USA, how much does it cost a month and etc, I really hope you guys will give me with info.
Any info will help.

This means little to nothing without absolute numbers.
exactly
Love how you can just come up with a chart and say anything these days and not have to back it up with numbers (done all the time for both iOS and Android)
"For this year�s report, Flurry once again leverages publicly available market data in the news, released by companies such as the NPD Group (e.g., Gamasutra�s Behind the Numbers series). We combine this data with our own estimates of game category revenues from iOS and Android devices"
so they do not even have actual sales numbers for iOS/Android - I use a report like this at work to justify anything and I think I would get fired on the spot :rolleyes:

Microsoft has claimed that to port VirtualPC to Intel would be much like making VirtualPC 1.0 all over again.
That sounds like a load of rubbish to me. They have VirtualPC for PC, so the actual "virtualisation" part could be taken from there. They also know how to use the various hooks in MacOSX, because that's what VPC7 for mac uses.
Which is not to say that it would be an easy task, but let's say that 50% of the work was already done. This seems like a reasonable estimate to me, and would be backed up by the time it has taken VMWare to create their Intel Mac version of their PC software....
I'm not normally one for conspiracy theory, but with Microsoft dropping WMP, IE, VirtualPC, and reducing 100% support for Office on the Mac, all in the last 12 months, I would suggest that Redmond is starting to get a little worried about Apple for the first time since the 1980s

don't dropbox require you to verify your email before you can complete registration?
That's what I'm thinking. They actually need to sign up in order for that box to appear for them as a user.

I would like to see,
thinner displays
HDMI
Better quality
Better response times
And 20" at �200 23" at �350 30" at �700
I couldn't wait.
Sitting here typing at my 3 week old 30" ACD I'm wondering what would the advantage of a thinner display be? (It's the foot that takes the space)
I don't get any noticeable lag on video or large graphics so how much faster do you need the response time to be?
Build quality is far in excess of any other monitor I've ever had - this thing is built like a tank and the image quality (as a print designer) is spot on. It may not suit people who need an oversaturated bright display but for me it's hard to imagine a higher image quality.
Yes, I'd like the price to have been �700 but it isn't and compared to an Eizo it's a fair price. Using a 30" professionally, in comparison to a 17" monitor (okay, big jump) I used to spend 50% of my mouse time (subjective) moving windows around the screen to get at what I wanted. The productivity gains mean this monitor will pay for itself in 6-9 months. If you want to buy a 30" for leisure use then it's a luxury and cost shouldn't be an issue.
Even if new ACD's came out at the above specs tomorrow, I wouldn't regret having bought this monitor when I did.
HDMI isn't an issue for me as I watch movies on my TV and don't have time to get into video editing etc. ;)

I was at work, at UNC-Charlotte. There was no access to TV, and the Internet was down, so I got very little information. When I eventually figured out what had happened, I called my wife and we figured out what we would do with the kids. I was there all day and had night classes, so I never saw any of the live footage of the event. My wife picked up the kids after school and took them to a prayer service at their church. I got home at about 10 p.m., by that time my wife didn't really want to watch any more TV, so I never really shared in the live television experience the rest of the world had. Of course, I've since read a lot about it on the Web and have since seen some of the video, but I don't think I had quite the same experience most people did. The biggest concern I had was how to explain what had happened to my kids, who were age 7 and 8 at the time.

Fivepoint, I do wish you would stop it with the sensational and inaccurate threads. If not for our sake, yours. They are intentionally designed to bait and inflame.
Lee, I'm sorry... but the definition of 'sensational' is not the same as 'anything Lee disagrees with'. Would you call the thread started today by rdowns called "Mike Huckabee... and American Dick" sensational? How about the one called "Wisconsin Public workers stand up to Republicans." I find that one pretty sensational. :rolleyes: Grow up.
May I also ask why you're not confident enough with your own views to answer the poll? Also, what exactly is 'innacurate' with my thread?

I like the monitor Mr.Noisy recommended, the Dell 2209wa. People are raving about this monitor and amazon has them in stock. Thanks to all who have contributed! :D
I looked at that monitor on amazon. $599? Are you f@#($ kidding me? DO NOT buy this for $599. It's a fantastic monitor and I own two, but I paid a lot less than $599 for BOTH my monitors. If you're going to spend that kind of money on a screen, pick up a 24-27" wide gamut IPS model instead.
Even the updated U2211H may be a better alternative? It's still IPS, and has the "full HD" 1920x1080 resolution?

11" MBA... $1000...
You didn't expect this?
I was a buyer within the first week... I absolutely utilize the heck out of it with work & everything else. Only thing I wish they had on it - would be a backlit keyboard. Besides that, I am more than happy with everything - CPU, GPU, 4GB of RAM, and the battery life is great!
I was looking for this years back... next item I am looking for is Apple to start putting dedicated powerful GPU's in the MacBook Pro 13". :cool:

Reasons why I'm waiting. Note these haven't been confirmed, but I'm thinking
With Thunderbolt connectivity they might:
Add a FW 400 and 800 port
Add USB 3.0 Ports
Add ethernet
Get rid of the USB connecting cable since it could go over Thunderbolt.
In other words, make the ACD almost into a dock.
I'm in the market for 2 ACD's when the revision comes out.
I was kind of thinking the same thing, I think it'll just be USB 2.0 carried over Thunderbolt with the display and audio but it would be great if they pushed through what you had, I'm definitely waiting until at least the iMac refresh comes because maybe it'll come along with that or at least give some indication of the direction they're taking. I love the idea of not have to plug the USB in too, I want to just hook up power and Thunderbolt to use the ACD with my MBP. I think it'll end up coming sooner than later, gotta get some Thunderbolt products on the market.

Yeah. You had any luck? How much are you making per iPad? Maybe pm me if you don't
Mind
For some reason it is not giving me the option to send you a private message, but I have sold all the iPads I have bought except for the one I kept for myself. Also I have people that are still calling me and shouldn't have any trouble selling a lot more. On eBay they are going for a lot internationally, but I don't like all the hassle of eBay even for double the price.

meeting someone in person who has the 1.0 version and having them log into iTunes on my iPad long enough to install the app and then logging out.
Kind of an underground app sharing scenario requiring an actual meeting.
I'll buy the lunch :)

Went to BestBuy today and had a sales person tell me not to buy a mini but get an imac........he said the speed was too slow compaired to the imac. Also that by the time I paid for mouse, monitor, keyboard I would have the same about of money invested. Just wanted some opinions?
Thanks
The issue with the iMac vs the mac Mini is that iMac has a more powerful process (Core i5 vs Core 2 Duo), also the imac supports more RAM and has a much more powerful GPU. If you want better raw specs the go iMac. If your computing load is light then you can easily get away with a mini and save some money.
I have a mini server which works great, but it just can't compete on raw GPU horsepower. The sever does fine for chewing through Mathematica computations or playing Unreal Tournament 2004.

Ok so heres the deal I have a 2010 Macbook, with Windows XP installed through parallels and Windows cannot recognize my disk drive on my Macbook. Is there anyway for me to make it recognize it. Well frankly I don't know if its recognizing it or not... I tried to play a game for windows using it and when I started the game it said please insert disc. So I took the disc out and put it back in. Still nothing, any help? :confused:
In Parallels as well as any other virtual machine software, you have to tell it to assign the disk to the VM. That process should be in the help screens or manual. I don't use Parallels, but use VMware and VirtualBox. They all have that function.

I played with this idea a year or two ago when an application came out that allowed you to add a peice of text as a contact. Plain text was easy just split it up and feed it in. But unfortunately in my original Ipod if you have any more than a page or two of text in a contact it scrolls really slowly... Slower than I can read. I then looked in to the documentation of formating text on a ipod with perhaps writing a converter from rtf as I had dozen or so ebooks in the format, Uggh!. In the end I decided haveing a ebook as 200 contacts and with a lot of work to get it formated on a tiny screen was way to hard and Took a laptop on holiday instead:)
Still have a couple of ebooks on my ipod and I still havent read 1 of them.
