Hope Apple brings out next generation Air this year, with Lion, Thunderbolt, SandyBridge. This is the computer I'm looking for; light, easy, functional and a stable OS. Guess I'd choose a 256GB SSD to not worry about space (at least for some years ahead). Hook it up at home with a decent monitor and you're good to go.
But I wouldn't be surprised if Apple waits again quite a long time and updates the Air in 2012 :( Their notebook-refresh-cycles have slowed down recently.
Did anyone hear about new TB-products since MBP refresh? I'm afraid the industry won't pick up this standard...

I'm looking to get myself an iPhone. I'd be open to one without phone functionality. I really just want to use it as an iPod with a camera, mic and speakers. A phone would be a nice bonus though.
I will not pay extra to have it unlocked and it must be in decent condition.
You must ship to Canada and accept PayPal. I have a few references on here and good feedback on eBay.
Thanks. :)

Heres the thing the new wireless spectrum actually is WiMax, to those who don't know what WiMax is, pretty much some people say its WIFI on steroids. Also the fact that if Tmobile is talking to apple it may have to do not only with Iphones but laptops. Wimax works in a way that you can have broadband connections up to 75mbps. So if Tmobile is talking to Apple they are probably going to design a chip or something so that people who buy apple then sign on to Tmobile and will have access to the internet with extremely high speeds anywhere in the US. :) What Tmobile is doing has more to do with Laptops than it would with Phones. Think of it on WiMax you can have IPTV and VOIP running and still surf the net. Not only that Intel and Motorola invested over 1 billion into Clearwire, INTEL IS designing new chips for WIMAX. I dont think this has to do with the Iphones.
If this is the direction T-Mobile is heading in... I'm there. Although I doubt it would be something seen anytime soon. Not that I would buy a T-Mobile phone, but I'd get their net access if it was Mac compatible. Heck, if any cell provider offered Mac compatible broadband, I'd be on it. Even if that menat having to buy a new machine, just for the compatibility. What better excuse for a new Mac? :)

So, recently moved to a 2011 Unibody MBP from a 2007 Santa Rosa MBP. More significantly, moved from a single-button trackpad to a no-button trackpad.
I am having some difficulties with drag and drop over on Windows 7. There don't seem to be such issues on the OSX side.
Namely, drag and drop is really difficult since I need to press the trackpad and drag. I would usually just hold the button and drag - and on the OSX side, I seem to be able to press and hold one finger and drag with the other.
Not working on the Windows 7 side.
I tried the drag lock option under BootCamp settings, but it is terribly cumbersome to use.
Any thoughts?

Finally. I've been flip-flopping for months over whether to get a Nook or a Kindle. I liked the Kindle more, but not being able to borrow library book almost nudge me towards the Nook. With this piece of news, Kindle is the clearly the reader for me.:cool:

I think Chico is talking about professional web design rather than doing it for a friend. I would charge at least $350 as well for a professional design like the example he showed. But if it were for a friend I would charge much less, if anything at all.

I think these are great improvements. I have been waiting forever for decent OpenGL performance on par with windows. Also resolution independence is the best thing since sliced bread.
Now the compaints against high-res screens producing small fonts can be put to rest forever. We can always opt for a higher res screen and not have to worry about going blind.
Now if only Apple would address the s-s-s-s-l--l---l---oo-oooo-----w---w--wwww finder. I'll be in heaven.

Ok.. I have a Mac and PC and I can listen to all the music from the PC except for the purchased music. That doesn't seem right. It's not like I can copy it etc.
Has anyone run into this problem and is there a way to fix it?

Yep. I agree. And if you've used Android lately on a phone, you'd say iPhone what?!?! Apple still has the more solid tablet but Android OS will have that market by summertime as well.
Don't bother flaming, it's well documented in the sales figures that Android has taken the #1 spot in the Phone OS model... my only point is Apple is at a critical turning point in their history. They can give customers what they want, or restrict. Customers don't like to be restricted, and like me, seek alternatives when cornered.
What you fail to realise is that Apple are giving their customers what they want. Apple customers do like to be restricted, that's why they are Apple customers and that's why they buy Apple products.

I think that's pretty normal. Apps just start to use more RAM the longer you keep them up, whether or not people admit it.
For example, after Safari is open for a couple weeks, it uses much more RAM. Of course a large part of that is me having 52 tabs open, but I notice that while Safari uses 1.66 GB now, restarting Safari completely (and restoring all of my tabs via the extension Glims), uses 1.01 GB of RAM. Clearly, having Safari open causes an accumulation of RAM. I don't know if this is because browsing various sites causes those sites to be stored in RAM at all (I always thought they were just stored in the cache however).
I've noticed this with other programs too, like iTunes and iChat. Opening iChat can use maybe 60MB and it can rise to 100MB. iTunes can rise from 60-70MB to around 100-130MB.
I don't notice a slowdown really, but that is because I have 8GB of RAM. Nevertheless, if the RAM usage is important to you, you can use some apps over others. I found Adium uses consistently less RAM than iChat. You can quit out of iTunes when you aren't playing music. I'm not sure about Chrome, but maybe closing tabs will reduce the RAM occupied by that tab since Chrome sandboxes each tab. Either way, I don't know if I blame Snow Leopard. Did this happen in Leopard at all? I just figure it's because of lazy application developers who use the wealth of RAM available on computers today to be lazy with optimizing performance and resource intensiveness.

In bed,
Sadly.
I was unemployed (laid off) and turned on the TV to note all sorts of news programs. I kept flipping the channels thinking it was just some political propaganda I didn't care about, until I spotted the video of the first plane.
I woke up between the two of them, and out of disbelief, I grabbed a stack of new VHS tapes and started recording. I still have the tapes, and plan to digitize them some day.

Any evidence supporting this claim with Linux on Intel? Perhaps there is a fact sheet posted on Microsoft's website.

Hey everyone!
What is the HTML tag for a comment box, I thought it was this:
<form action="/html/tags/html_form_tag_action.� method="get">
Comments:</br>
<textarea rows="3" cols="20"></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
But it does not work when saved as .html. I think I need like a code page or something, but I do not know how to make one, any ideas?
I think I figured out my problem. This action tag is an example, I would have to replace it with the URL path that processes the form tag. So I could replace it with a web host website (if I made an account with a web host that allows CGI). For example action="http://sitename.com/cgi-bin/processForm.cgi." or something like that.

Blizzard,
Thanks for the advice! :) I am using Safari so I don't know what it's limits are, but I have seen paste limits in Firefox before, but not in Safari.

I did some more research on this and it appears that we will have to wait probably for the Linux programmers to port Foomatic to OSX. That is if Epson does not release a driver eventually.
I tried to follow the directions on this site, but this assumes that you are running Linux and that Foomatic is already installed, along with Ghostscript and CUPS. I was able to apply the PPD file for the EPL-5700 to my printer and see it in Print Center but the in between framework is missing: the cupsomatic script and Foomatic system. I can print but the printer does not respond, so CUPS is not sending the data to the printer.
I couldn't figure out where to put the cupsomatic script since OSX does not have the directory substructure of redhat.

Sorry to bump, but couldnt anyone help me?? someone must have tried RAM with heatsinks on there mac mini...The problem is so much RAM these days ships with the heatsinks fitted,
SHadOW
Three answers:
1) Don't do it, there isn't room physically
2) Any RAM you are considering buying with heatsinks is, by definition, not RAM sold with a guarantee of Mac compatibility. No Mac RAM is sold with heatspreaders. Buy from a reputable dealer who guarantees compatibility with the Mini. Don't put in random PC memory.
3) If you already have a piece of RAM that you are bound and determined to try then just take off the heat spreader - it's like, a $2 piece of aluminum held on by two spring clips... :rolleyes:
