Well since I was working 3rd shift during that time I had just gone to bed. When I woke up around 2PM I didn't even turn on my TV since I had to be at my second job at 3:00 that day. So as I'm on my way to work I had to go near the Buffalo airport and noticed that it was really quiet so I turned on my radio (started with a cd and never knew what happened) and heard what was going on. Total shock or more disbelief what had happened when I was sleeping. It was about half an hour later at work when I looked and all my clients had canceled that day and the next. The thing that got me was none of my family called me to let me know what was going on (just moved into my new and first house) so the whole thing was a very surreal feeling that day and night to say the least.

Keep in mind that Mr. Eaton is a professional. He shoots with a full frame camera that yields large file size images. Think about what you are going to be doing with photography before you jump into all this. The setup you are thinking of buying - the Mac Pro - is easily expandable. If you start with two drives, you still have room for two more. I have a MBP that came with a 250Gb drive. That was good for a year before I upgraded it to a 500 Gb one. The old drive is in an external enclosure and serves as a photo backup of my Aperture file vault. I have a 1TB external drive for Time Machine, and that backs up everything on my system. This is my hobby and I probably shoot around 200 images in an average month, more during good weather. I have a Canon XSi and will move to a 7D in a year or so.
Just my 2k worth.
Edit: My advice is to not configure your setup as an end all right out of the gate. Storage technology is rapidly evolving, and what you dump all that money on may be obsolete in two years. Thunder Bolt will lead to fiber optics being standard and solid state drives will replace disc drives before you know it.

Thanks Dale. I did not know Mr. Eaton is a professional, but he has a point about storage space. I am thinking about a 500 GB-750 GB HDD for photos and scratch disc. I have a point and shoot camera right now. I mess around with the provided software. I am an entry level photographer. :)
My modified original plan is for a Mac Pro:
1. 120 SSD for my boot drive, including OS and software: bay 1
2. 320 GB- 500 GB to backup the boot drive: bay 2.
3. 500 GB-750GB drive for photo storage and scratch disc: bay 3
4. the OEM 1 TB to backup the photo/scratch disc drive: bay 4.
So bay 2 and 4 are backup drives, while bay 1 and 3 are productivity drives.
I did not factor in any type of RAID or an external storage drive(s.) I learned that OS X has striping or a generic RAID built into the OS, which is beneficial for many people.
Another question, SR20DETDOG stated I do not need a 7200 rpm drive for storage and that makes sense, but if I am using the drive as storage and scratch disc, then should I buy a 7200 rpm drive?
I am neither belittling SR20DETDOG nor questioning his or her logic, but I think about getting more use from one drive is economical. Plus, I have posted my backup plan, so folks can view my intentions.
I am pricing drives and I am disappointed that 250 GB-320 GB drives cost more or is equal to a 500 Gb drive. Again the 500 GB drives are priced within a $10.00 USD price range of a 750 GB drive. I though 250 GB and 320 GB drives would be cheaper, but what do I know? :confused:

No, that pic is way pre WW2. That's around WW1 by the looks of it.

I still wow about my cube even though I sold it over a month ago. wow it was a cool computer.
My new ibook is great as well, and technically more useful than the cube, but it doesn't really have the wow that the cube had.

I still can't believe you lot in the USA have gone for yet another incompatible-with-the-rest-of-the-world frequency for your 3G network meaning that anyone coming to the USA won't be able to use your 3G network and your 3G iPhones will be about as useful as a one legged dog outside the USA.
It's interesting that the T-Mobile guy thinks that the prime use for 3G in the USA will be email and other user generated content and not music though. Personally the last thing I want is content rich email on my mobile phone.

from the link I provided:
So yes, there were two seperate MacBook Pro Updates :D
Yep. The software update installs first, then run update again and the EFI update shows up. No problems here on 2011 13" MBP with Intel 510 SSD.

The only thing worse than crappy cell phone companies would be someone that thinks the government could make it better. What motivation does the govt. have to make cell phone companies better? Votes. That's it. Votes. The only motivation that government has. So they'll promise you that they'll make it better. You'll vote for them. They'll spend money regulating whatever you think needs regulating. They'll create a branch that costs some upzillion dollars. Cell phone companies will be forced to comply with some ridiculous something or other. They'll up your bill by placing a charge on it called the "rsoo tax" to pay for it. The cell phone companies will all still treat you badly. Vote with your feet. Keep switching carriers. Don't blow your cash on idiotic features for idiotic prices. The companies will comply and compete for your business.
The cell companies lobbied HARD to not allow you to keep your number when you switch. The state legislature here (Calif) buckled 3 times.
You can thank "the government" for allowing you to keep your number when you switch. You can also thank "the government" for demanding that the companies improve their 911 protocols. People were sometimes
waiting 20 minutes to get connected. Also, blame "the government"
for requiring that the companies allow you a grace period to return your phone. They actually had to create a bill called "the cell phone bill of rights"
These actions did not create a huge costly layer of bureaucracy. Why do people think that corporations should be allowed to abuse people unhindered? After-all the market was/is not providing that many real choices. It's a cartel.
Bye the way, "the government" (in theory) is you.

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 :)
I'm in Brooklyn. Do you drive?

Here's something I find odd. When you click the Post Reply button at the bottom of a thread display and type the text of a new post, you have buttons labeled Submit Reply and Preview Post. If you click Preview Post, you see the preview, followed by a Submit Message button, then the text box, then the same Submit Reply and Preview Post buttons. The Submit Message and Submit Reply buttons do the same thing.
So we have three nouns for the same thing: Reply, Post, and Message!
I think the nouns should be the same, i.e., instead of
Submit Message and Submit Reply and Preview Post
the three buttons should be
Submit Reply and Submit Reply and Preview Reply
OR
Submit Post and Submit Post and Preview Post
OR
Submit Message and Submit Message and Preview Message
Of these three choices, I prefer
Submit Reply and Submit Reply and Preview Reply
because you clicked Post Reply to start the process.

RAM is very cheap right now. If you can or are interested in doing so, I'd say make the jump to 4GB and go with 64-bit. I'm sure Auto-CAD 2012 could easily take advantage of the extra RAM. Plus, Mac OS X loves RAM, so both OS's would benefit. I have a MacBook Pro 4.1 as well, and one of the first things I did was upgrade the RAM to 4GB. I noticed a nice increase in speed from 2GB in both OS X and Windows. Windows 7 64-bit runs flawlessly for me. I'd highly recommend going this route.

I managed to get it working on my new 27" iMac by editing a system file to fool Steam into believing that you are running 10.6.7 - I believe the 10.6.7 requirement is because of new ATI graphics drivers that were bundled with that release and therefore this is quite safe (as the 10.6.6 build on the new iMacs obviously has the drivers for the machine).
I've posted the full details at http://bendodson.com/weblog/2011/05/04/portal-2-on-the-new-imac-10-6-6/ but basically you need to change the SystemVersion.plist file in your /System/Library/CoreServices/ directory so that the two references to 10.6.6 are changed to 10.6.7 - Steam will still complain but when you say "continue anyway" it'll actually run.
Enjoy!
