I'm sitting here in my office - in front of my crappy Windoze computer - and I just don't feel like working! I'm bored! I need to find some fun things online to read.
Now replace work with school, and you have me... :rolleyes:

I installed something via iFile that i'd sent myself by e-mail.I now wish to remove it but where do i find it to remove it?
Any help appreciated ;)
If it's a deb I would assume you simply uninstall it via Cydia?

I'll be there eventually. I'll let you know what the line is like if I beat you there. I planning on 3:30 or so.
Let me know if you get there earlier.
Just got a report from someone I know that drove past there -- 4 people in line at the moment. Or at least that was 15 mins ago.
Going to grab a bite to eat and leave here shortly.

einsteinium, so you plan on being there at 6am? And I thought I was being smart by being there at 7am. I guess I may have to do the same, just in case.
Thank goodness that Tully's is across the street, because I will be in major need of caffeine that early in the morning.

I've had 3 iPhone 4's unlocked by Rogers, 2 of which were under contract. It is against their internal policies, but it partly depends on the rep you get. For the second phone I got one that was so confused (policy was only a week old) that I was able to convince him the policy allowed me to be unlocked and so he did.
Wait, you got Rogers to unlock your iPhone?! Is this a new policy or did u get lucky?

That's it, Apple decided not to sell the iPhone in its store. Only show demo units
Quote frome AppleInsider this morning: "Apple, disgusted with Rogers Wireless for dumping egregious service plans on would-be iPhone 3G buyers, has decided that its Canadian retail stores will have no part in helping the carrier market the new handset to customers"
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/08/07/08/spat_with_rogers_leaves_canadian_apple_stores_without_iphones.html
Will go the the Fido store and finally switch to Fido...
- billing by the second
- nights and week-ends starting earlier
etc.

Welcome to the Mac community. You'll find people here that have some great knowledge. I have a G3 400 and I think OS X rocks on it. Can't complain too much about speed. Going to ZIF it soon.

I don't really think that Bill Gate's money is that big of a deal. If you consider the amount of influence he has had in terms of creating jobs and opportunities for other people you'd probably be happy to pay him the $40bn. Microsoft itself hires more than 100,000 people - never mind every other company that partners with or relies on Microsoft in some way. That in turn generates huge amounts of tax and prosperity. On top of that, it also happens that Bill Gates is very charitable. I suspect that a lot of wealthy people are.
This is why I would support the idea that the wealthy should be rewarded. If my CEO hadn't been allowed to become successful, I wouldn't have a job. The same applies for most people here.
I don't see how raising Bill Gates' personal income tax affects Microsoft as a company though.
At the small business level, where a single owner/operator's income does make decisions between taking a little more money or hiring someone to, hopefully, make even more money, this kind of decision does make sense.
But, once Microsoft made its first billion, you could tax Bill Gates 90 percent and it wouldn't have affected the number of employees working there because Gates' and Microsoft had become two fundamentally different entities financially.

I haven't seen any definite confimation. From what I've read the iPhone will be released to more countries on that date and the Philippines is one of the countries listed as coming soon.

Hello All,
I'm pretty new to the Mac and was wondering how to change my background color to a solid color other than the few that are available by default. In Windows, in the absence of a desktop picture, I can specify pretty much any color to be the background color. All I see are the several swatches of color and no way to get more colors.
Are these background "colors" simply little pictures that are tiled? How do I get a true background color that's not already there? Any help appreciated.

Just checked it out, and it works fine... Simply remove the height properties from #banner and #banner_topad and it scales automatically without wasting the space on smaller ads.

Either way, they seem to be alright value and about as good as any other 240GB 6G drive on the market now. I was going to get an OCz but after reading an OWC article on how OCz supposedly uses off-spec NAND chips it really put me off the idea :)
I'd skip the OCZ drives from what I've seen as well.
I believe I have found a place to source some X5690 for cheap, but they are being pulled from an Dell R710 server. Have you any idea if the chip design for the Dell R710 is the same as retail or altered somehow/specific like the HP DP X5690 with a different IHS etc.. like in the below link?
http://www.buy.com/prod/hp-xeon-dp-x5690-3-46-ghz-processor-upgrade-socket-b-lga-1366-hexa/q/loc/101/220240015.html
AFIAK, they're standard (come with an IHS). The photo of the HP P/N supports this as well (standard part, as sold as OEM or Retail).
The only one that immediately comes to mind (no IHS), is with the 55xx parts Apple used in 2009 DP systems. They went to standard parts with the 56xx used on the 2010 DP systems (standard OEM parts with the IHS, and added the latch cover to the socket as Intel designed it). I suspect skipping the latch cover and using naked parts was a failed attempt (by Foxconn actually) at cutting costs, but did away with it due to defect rates from bent pins during the assembly process "eating" those savings due to the expense of rework and waste.

Another in the "too easy" series. iMovie this time!
We're trying to catch the evil cat.
Kinda choppy because I had to cut it down to ~30 seconds.

Hello Macrumors,
I want to get a Mac Mini, just to have a nice little desktop at home.
Im going to hook it up to dual monitors, (which i already have), and so i have a few questions.
1) do dual monitors use up more RAM? if so...
2) how much RAM is a safe amount (im buying aftermarket), if i want to run iTunes, Google Chrome, PS CS5, AI CS5, a lot of the time at the same time?
3) is the Core 2 Duo capable of that?! And if i got the 2.66 GHz over the 2.4, would i notice the difference.
4) Last but not least, if i want to use it mainly as a windows machine, and boot it from windows, how much should i keep for the mac partition.
i ask the -windows- question because i have a friend who adores the design of Macs, but simply cannot get used to Mac OSX (long time windows user), so he wants to put windows onto it. Whats the minimum amount of GB's he should keep on the Mac Partition?
Also, can you change how much each partition gets later on? if so, how?
thank you for reading,,

The 10% is an estimate from the article above.As with all things related to charitable donations in the U.S. it is some what murky e.g. are religious donations to help the poor actually reaching the poor.I would say meeting basic needs is the most effective way of helping those in most need,as you can see from the graph it amounts to F all (forgot source) http://www.philanthropy.iupui.edu/research/giving%20focused%20on%20meeting%20needs%20of%20the%20poor%20july%202007.pdf

apple.com.au still doesn't have iTunes 7 on their website:(
still can't buy tv shows:mad:
No mention of movie purchases in our store:confused:
Just another poor cousin release by the looks of it.
We're glad that you guys can have more fun than us.
You could use the cheering up what with george dubbya and all
Greetings from Australia
Thanks - it's too true. With our current W misery it's nice to have movies and TV to numb the pain.
I "authorized" my library to this machine and was reminded I have authorized "3 out of 5" - wasn't it previously 7 machines that could be "authorized"? maybe my imagination.
I really like iTunes7 - flipping through all my (new) CD art is a nice way to pick an album to listen to.

Nope. She's been dropped from T-Mobile advertisement. T-Mobile is trying to re-brand themselves right now.
