So I'm looking into a new iMac and my budget is 1500 so I'm wonder whether to get the 2.5 ghz and get some ram from OWC or just go with the 2.7 ghz please help me decide
How long do you intend to keep the machine? Because you can always save up more and buy RAM later, but the processor is pretty much set. For this reason, I would recommend getting the 2.7.
Since you'll be spending $300 more for the 2.7, you're also getting twice the hard drive space and a better graphics card.

I discovered MacTubes about a year ago and i used it all the time. I don't really watch YouTube ever, but when i want to hear a song or something it's really nice to have a way to do so on my mac. Have you tried &fmt=18? It doesn't seem to work anymore.

...you've gotta attach that file. *Then* it's a winner ;)
I couldn't - The file size is too large. :(
(thanks for pointing that out though) I can downsize it's quality/physical size to fit the attachments but I can't replace the current one with it - it won't look right.

Is it just the picture, or is that shelf ready to go?
Nice collections BTW. I had about 500 DVDs from the States, but since i live in Greece now, they wont play on my PS3 I bought here, so I converted them all, and have them stored on my external drive.
Anyone have any ideas what I should do with them? I have them in two boxes in the garage.
Ha, nope its not just the picture, the shelves are pretty slanted. They are holding up though. If any of the shelves decide to break, I would not be surprised if it is the shelves that are holding all my records. They are more heavier than 1 shelf of blu's. I will probably be looking at getting new bookcase or something soon.
Do you plan on coming back to the states anytime? When you come back you could sell them to a second hand store or donate them?

I think the original demonstration in the video was at the TED conference (http://www.ted.com/) a year or two ago...whether these researchers were working on these ideas parallel to Apple or if they were later hired by Apple would be the interesting part, as this technology clearly has wider applications than just the iPhone.

XCode 4 looks like its going to take a big step foward. Hopefully as large as the one between ProjectBuilder and XCode.
I'm really looking forward to this. Any know of a possible release date?

You have three choices:
(a) Take the gasket out and use the monitor to turn on the computer. Yes, you are supposed to TOUCH it, not just wave past it.
(b) Take the gasket out, and turn it over.
(c) Put a piece of paper on top of the gasket. This works for some folks.
I've never had the problem myself, but it is a very common problem. See http://www.cubeowner.com for details.

personally, I would get the classic, since I already have an older nano, both are great iPods though, so you would be happy with either. Base your decision on how important having all of your music with you is, if you can get by with less storage, the Nano will be great, if you need all of your music with you you have no choice but the classic.

So here's my questions for all you Mac guys out there:
How is security on a Mac as opposed to a PC?
Pretty damn good. I rarely ever (I don't think I actually have) read about someone getting a virus on their Mac. I don't have any virus protection software and everything is running just fine on mine.
Is it easy to keep files and programs organized and easily accessible?
Very easy. Coming from a PC it takes a little getting used to in the fact that you can't just add an organization bar at the top (date of creation, time, date of modification, etc.) [Unless you can, if so, someone let me know :)] You also can't cut and paste, you have to either drag and drop or copy/paste then delete the original.
How is the "ease of use" for a Mac beginner? I wanna be able to get it and go! Just like with my iPhone.
Very easy. At a basic point it seems to be a little easier and more user friendly than a windows PC is. Everything is done a certain way and if you can wrap your head around it, it's very simple. HOwever you have keyboard commands which make Macs very efficient. The use of spaces also drastically improves this with the ability to have "unlimited" desktops, each of which you can switch to at any time.
And my number one priority, how dependable will my Mac be in 2,4,and 10 years down the line if I can't just go and get another one?
Very dependable. Of course if you're speaking spec wise, it depends on what you get now, although you can always upgrade the specs.
I'm using an 08 BlackBook right now and love it; 2.2ghz, 4 gigs of ram, and a 320gb hard drive. Amazingly fast and it never lags, allows me to run XP and 7 in a virtual window (within a program, not a separate OS) without much slowdown either.

Just looked at the BSE Skin. It doesn't have a hole for the light sensor, would this affect it very much? I think I might go without a screen protector if it does affect it. But if it doesn't, I'll spend the extra $2.

Official Apple anything is expensive.
Never buy memory/HDD upgrades etc. from Apple, that logo on the box will add about 75% to the real price.

Hi,
I'm trying to install 10.3 on an old Tangerine G3 333 iMac. I've upgraded the RAM and the OS9 that was already instlalled was running fine. I then swapped out the HD booted off of the 10.3 install CD, erased HD and partitioned it to 7GB/33GB.
So far so good. I start the install and everything seems to be going just fine, but it never ask for the 2nd install CD. It goes through disk optimization and everything while still on the 1st CD. Then it reboots itself, but fails to find the OS on the HD and ends up wanting to install again.
I've done this 4 or 5 times now and can't figure out what is happening. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

I used the V400 for a while. We didnt get a long to well. It was fine, the battery life was fine for me. Nothing un reasonable. 3-4 days is what I got. I seemed rather slow n sluggish at times. It also scratches very easier. Then my backlight died on it. ( Just one day went out.) I went into Cingular and they gave me a new one on the spot.
I was done with the phone though, and bought a V600 at the same time. (sold the new V400 on ebay) It much more durable IMO opinion.
I've since bought a V3.
All in all its a good phone. Nothing special IMO. but solid.
