Steve specifically said on the keynote that it was iTunes purchased tracks only. I don't know if it works 2-way with iTunes tracks, though.
Confirmed here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/sync/transfer.html only purchased tracks.

I agree Thursday is probably the best, the crowds are manageable and they haven't started crating things up yet. You want to be looking at booth bimbos instead of grizzled union dudes right?

There used to be a chain of stores that let you listen to any CD in the store so you could see if you liked it. Not sure if there are any that still do that.

i got the e2c's a couple days ago, and i fear they might be raising my standards to more expensive headphones, too. its sort of eerie not being able to hear anything around you.

Oh, and 5P has left the building, for an undermined amount of time. ;)
I read a post somewhere that said 5P had left us.
Is that true? That would be so sad. :(
As someone once said, "He may be a bastard, but he's our bastard."
Probably 3 days, if my experience is to be trusted. ;)

Flash isn't exactly new technology as first NANDs were released back in 1987. However, NANDs have not offered much capacity before today. Back in the biggest NAND we had was 1GB. I think 2.5" SSDs can hold up to 16 NANDs so this would result in capacity of 16GB. The biggest HD in 2005 was 500GB, which had more than 30 times bigger capacity than the best SSD could have offered back then.
Right now, we have a lot bigger NANDs. The biggest ones used in SSDs are 32GB I think but Toshiba has already announced a 128GB NAND. I don't know when they are shipping them but 64GB should already be available. 16x128GB would give you 2TB! In the mean time, HDs have not developed that much. In 6 years, the HD capacity has only become 6 times greater (500GB -> 3TB). In that same time, NANDs have become 64 times bigger in capacity (1GB -> 64GB).
Okay, that is it for the history lesson and why we didn't have SSDs until now. The reason why I think SSDs are still so expensive is the huge demand for NANDs. SSDs use the same flash memory as lots of other products, i.e. NANDs. If you look at the industry now, a lot products are using NANDs. Phones, tablets, TVs, computers... Pretty much all electronics with some kind of an operating system. Smart phones have become very popular during the last few years. Tablets are still very new but they are also becoming popular.
When the demand is big, then the manufacturers can keep the prices up because people will buy it anyway. What would your iPhone be without a nice amount of storage? Or would you prefer a hard drive in it which would make it a lot bigger and heavier? Those devices simply cannot be what they are without NANDs. This means OEMs must buy NANDs, no matter what the price is.

Why don't they just put a HDMI socket on a Mac Mini? This would let you use Front Row on your flat screen TV, this gives you the option of DVD's, USB TV cards (and video recording), etc
1) The mini is 2x as expensive as iTV
2) The mini would cost even more with HDMI (at least right now)
3) A lot of consumers just want the simplicity of a set-top box.
4) Others don't want to waste the power of a full computer just as a media center.

What do you mean? Are you talking about Leopard? Leopard will work with Core 2 Duo, Core Duo, PPC, probably everything back to about a 1997 model imac.
However Leopard will only provide 64 bit support to 64 bit capable chips, that would be G5 PPC and Core 2 Duo only.
He's talking about the OpenGL update that allows one processor to deal with OpenGL instructions whilst the other does, um, other stuff. It supposedly gives OpenGL performance as much as a 2x boost in speed.
I'm guessing it only works with Mac with multiple processing cores.

does it look crappy like that while you are working in word, or on the finished product? i would assume that word likes to display graphics with a little less quality than what you actually put into them. if you are talking about the finished product, then perhaps you should type your "reports, etc" in word and then get your hands on indesign and put all of your text into there.

I'm not sure if they store the actual text of the message or not, but I know I can go to AT&T's online account management and see the time and number texted on my bills going back at least a year.

I didn't lose any. You can force iTunes to get brand new album art for your entire collection. See this (http://theubergeeks.net/2006/09/13/new-album-art/)
Yes, I did know that (but thanks anyway). In fact, I believe it is this particular feature that led to the mysterious disappearance (I think, at least) of album art. From your link:
WARNING: This process will take iTunes quite a while to perform. So do not do it if you don�t have time to let it sit and do its thing. Also, do not do this if you have one-of-a-kind album art or you have scanned in album art, or even if you have albums in your collection from local bands that you�ve spent 8 weeks trying to find album art for them. They will not be found by iTunes� �get album art� feature.
iTunes asked me if I wanted it to search for album art and I stupidly clicked 'yes' thinking it would get the ones I didn't have or fix some of the errors. Oh, well. Cool feature, nonetheless. Also, the "Cover Flow" feature, while cool as well, is quite taxing on my 1 Ghz G4. Something tells me it would be a little smoother on an 8-core Mac Pro. :D

You've got my vote!
Your proposed graphic is definitely my favorite avatar I've seen on the entire Forum! (Uh-oh, mistake: I've just insulted all the judges ) Would make me laugh aloud & feel good every time I'd see it, I'm sure . . . Hope you get to keep it . . . I just wish I'd thought of it first . . .
Wasn't there a State that was giving away a Mozart CD to every newborn (to make them smarter?) a while ago? I wish it was a copy of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" DVD set instead!
thanks.
the guide is definitively one of my favourite books. I've read it nth times but it always cracks me up.
I don't have the dvd set. is it worth getting?

So, unfortunately, my fancy display isn't finished yet, and most of my Macs are in storage at the moment, but here's a video of what I've got at the moment...
The video (http://att.macrumors.com/contest4m/337636.mp4)
Here is my .Mac Gallery link ( http://gallery.mac.com/ehurtley/100023 ). My .Mac Gallery has Tiny, Mobile, and Medium sizes; whereas the version I attempted to upload to MacRumors was a customized 'Mobile' movie. (I lowered the bitrate, and had lower bitrate mono sound compared to a 'standard' Mobile movie to make it fit under 15 MB.)
Thanks for fixing the uploaded version, Doc Q! (So, I tried to upload it 4 or 5 times. Were there a bunch of copies, and I just wasn't getting the URL, or did it not upload at all?)

You can't see them, but on the bottom left and right corners, there are touch sensitive buttons.
I tried it at the Verizon store.
Buttons you say eh? Hmm :rolleyes:

Exciting.. now if only the Finder got it's "plumbing" re-routed. :rolleyes:
If someone had a great idea about how Finder should look and work, it might be improved. However, since the plumbing is behind the scenes and that's been re-done a lot, it wouldn't help to simply re-route it again.
