Yep, I'm with you on that. It already bugs me that my Prius has a black box for accidents and a GPS built in (for the nav system.) Why do we *trust* this government to not ask companies to turn that information over (just like they asked for our phone records) and for these corporations getting billions in tax incentives to eagerly comply? Now if you carry a GPS, government will be able to know where you are at any moment. I'm not buying it unless Apple includes a pledge with the product that they will fight to protect my legal rights if any government agency asks for these records without probable cause.
Most (if not all) new cell phones in America have built in GPS as a result of an FCC mandate for Enhanced 9-1-1 capability in mobile devices. Apple may simply be taking this required expense and turning it into a way to get more value in their device by linking it with a built in camera/iPhoto/GoogleMaps. This certainly seems like one of those "why didn't anyone else do that?" sort of (in retrospect) obvious moves that Apple is great at.
But the fact remains, most new cell phones in the U.S. at least already have GPS built in so the location of the phone can be tracked by emergency responders. It's hardly something new being developed by Apple that will make the iPhone any more subject to governmental data-mining abuse than any other mobile phone.

So i got this iMac off eBay for just �2.15! It's a tangerine model with a 10 gig HD and 160 mb RAM, running 10.3.9. Actually came with Word for mac installed. Gonna get a usb dongle to get it on the web. My only complaint is that I can't sync my iPhone.

I am working on a Mac Pro that is 3 years old and I have a budget to replace it. I do some intense video editing to produce a promotional piece for several months each summer/fall and then don't do much video until the following summer. I have a JVC HD camera (GY-HM100U).
The other 9 or 10 months of the year I'm doing some Adobe CS projects and office tasks.
I think FCP X looks like it's going to be lots of fun when it's released in June. There are rumblings about whether an updated Mac Pro will be out soon. Most of what I'm reading suggests it won't be until late '11 or maybe '12. Perhaps it makes sense to just get the new MacPro and wait for FCP X to become available. I can afford something like an 8 core with 24GB ram (ram mostly purchased separately of course) and I already have 23" monitors and a promax 4GB Raid 5 to keep all the video files safe.
So... buy now or wait?

Did Apple finally release a product that is too secure for the current jailbreakers? Maybe it's time for a new batch of them to step forward and show how it's done ;)
No, comex did it, so its possible. As said a million times before, he has not released it because it contains proprietary code which he does not own, and it as of now it does not work on other than 4.3 (one of the multiple exploites he used was patched).
Im hoping that d0nfyxn's jailbreak is real, allthough its probably fake, i think its our best chance at a jailbreak within a month.

This is at the top of my list, but I've been waiting a bit longer to get a little bored with the VC before getting it. I've seen several used copies at Ebgames for $35 USD (minus additional 10% with an ebgames advantage card) and almost rented it, but I know I'll end up owning it, so why bother.
I've only played the middle three MS games, on emulators both on my Powerbook and PSP when I owned the latter. Addictive as hell, just like you say, but also refreshing presentation that never seems dated - just inspired like the best comic book art and with totally tight controls and gameplay.
Even when i look at some next-gen 3d games, I'm still seeing stretched and distorted textures wrapped around blocky ragdolls. In fact, I don't remember ragdolls looking as blocky as some of the 3d models I see these days, plus most ragdolls appear to at least have their limbs securely attached to the torso unlike the models in, for example, MK Armageddon (based on screenshots of course).

You will be constrained by the through-put of USB with an external drive VM.
That said, you could put a VM instance on an external drive and run it from there.
Alternately just store the VM on the external, and move it to the SSD when you need it.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate on a 9 gig VM using 512K of memory...so you may not need as much SSD space as you think.
Of course, gaming will change this pretty fast.
Would it be better t o try and do this off of a memory stick? How many gigs would I need?
By games I'm talking about mostly casual games with small clients and low GPU usage...

Same here. There is nothing in 4.3.1 or 4.3.2 that I need and from previous experience if it ain't broke don't touch it.

Are your discs scratched? Also did you try going into Disk Utility and formating your hard drive...maybe writing all zeros? I can't think of anything else :-/ :confused:

The newbies actually only have 1 or 2 posts, they only showed up on the list because they must have gotten interested in MR in the last month and posted something. The list does not include people who only have visited in the last month, active is considered posting in the forums.

What about a reinstall?
That's the first thing I tried.. I installed over. I tried uninstalling first by dragging Safari to AppZapper but it "refused" to zap it... I know I can change the preferences but now that I think of, force-removing Safari is not a good idea
I also tried disabling all extensions... still the same problem

I went on the same whim, but as to more showcase the work in another way than my website would do. It's now more a sort of blog for me that an actual way to find work... alas a blog I'm too busy/lazy to maintain.
I'm not entirely sure that professionals would use FB for that kind of finding a photographer for a job.
The last few jobs I had I picked up via google > my website, so I guess that's still the main road for people to go when in need of a photographer.
And ofcourse, then there's the whole "we'd like to own everything you add to FB" attitude of FB :)

I don't really have an asking price, as I don't know what's a reasonable price. I know you have a 12" PowerBook. Trades? :D
Hmm...I'm not exactly looking to trade my PB at the moment, but here's an example of what I sold my old iBook for, it was a 1.07ghz 12" with 512mb 40gb HD and combo drive, I got $800 for it, so I'd say that $1000+ would seem reasonable. Especially seeing as the HD is upgraded and (possibly) the RAM, and Superdrives do boost value, so anywhere from $1000-$1200 wouldn't seem unreasonable to me.
(By the way, I'm not interested in buying it, just bought a 800mhz G3, just felt like helping you out a bit.)

Is this something specifically to do with the Areca 1880 series cards and the Mac Pro 2010 or does this ring true for all other 3rd party RAID controllers?
It's true for any 3rd party RAID controller. It's also true for software based configurations (SATA or SAS ports + software and system resources).
When you previously said this is because one does not have access to firmware/EFI settings and can't change the boot device I am wondering why this is required, wouldn't there be a loader\boot menu that one can bring up? How would I then select between the primary OSX install on SSD1/Areca and Win 7 on SSD2/ICH if there wasn't a boot menu? Or is it simply some kind of limitation that will not allow the Mac Pro to detect and display in the boot menu stage any drives attached to the Areca controller other than the one that was set as boot drive in OSX?
Setting the boot device has nothing to do with it.
Boot Camp + RAID = DO NOT WORK. Period. :(
So keep Windows and OS X on a single disk each (or BC a single SSD attached to the ICH), which isn't a problem. Remember, stripe sets don't improve random access at best, and can actually create a performance penalty over a single disk when using SSD's.
