Apple should think realistically now about allowing legitimate Fairplay licensing.
Here in the UK, websites are being forced to use DRM by content providers. The only option currently available, thanks to Apple's pigheadedness, is Windows DRM. So Mac users are being increasingly locked out of web services such as live broadcasts, radio stations etc. simply because we don't use Windows. Give the content providers another solution with Fairplay licensing and maybe Mac users won't get so marginalised.
They may not have noticed in Cupertino, but Windows DRM is locking people into Windows just as effectively as Fairplay is locking people into iPods. Apple are allowing Microsoft to get a foothold in a market that Apple should own by now.

Microsoft is not developing Virtual Basic in the Univeral Mac Office suite, so some people are already claiming that cross-compatibility is officially dead. Unless someone comes up with a Rosetta-like translator between VB and AppleScript/Automator, I don't see how script-filled Office files will be able to leave a Mac-only or Windows-only environment.
I noticed that too... I have no idea why they are going to be killing off VB support, but say good-bye to being able to have compatability with any documents with Macros.

Growth stocks don't generally pay dividends. Dividend paying stocks are a safety move, trading dividends for share price growth, and are meant to attract investors. Apple doesn't need to do that.
Be happy with the insane growth.It has a 315 billion market cap, it's not "growing" to $1 trillion, sorry. Apple is a mature company.

Yes, if you are a student eligible for the Student free iPod offer. Did you purchase the eligible Mac on or before 9/24/05? You can just say that you purchased from the Apple Store Online. Be sure that you cut out the UPC code on the Mac and iPod (that is if you have it already.) You must cut out the cardboard of the box along with the UPC label attached.

Well I was asleep, woke up in the morning to watch tv. I believe the 2nd building had just collapsed, me and mum were in such shock. Went to school and all we did that day was watch the tv.
May God be with those lost souls.

Apple were going to make the Facetime protocol an open standard. Its up to others to pick it up. Personally, I'm surprised Apple haven't already made a Facetime app for windows.
I've been waiting for an announcement of them opening the standard for a while now but it still hasn't happened. As a cross platform standard I'd definitely be interested in using it but as of now, I can't.

Glad to see this generation wasn't a flop.
I'd buy an 11"er if it had a backlit keyboard and the price was around $800. Personally, just saying. And no, I don't want an iPad.

One of the things that irritates me about iTMS is the fact that I can't play my purchased tracks on anything other than an iPod.
This doesn't currently affect me as I own an iPod but I would like to be able to use them on other devices as well (such as AAC compatible phones etc.) . This restriction means that I do not purchase as much from iTMS as I might otherwise.
I am wondering how much extra money Apple gets from locking users of iTMS into the iPod system.
Would 'de-regulating' FairPlay in this way encourage owners of other players to buy from iTMS and would this extra revenue offset that losses from lower (potentially) from iPod sales?

Yes, Parallels and VMware are better products, but that is not the point. Has no one else noticed the number of products Microsoft is canceling for the Mac. I do not believe that Microsoft sees a market for the Macintosh. This of course is purely a business perspective.
I for one think Apple will be taught a lesson in respect. The only logical solution is to kill off Mac Office universal binary support. If they want to run on the Intel platform, they can run on emulation.
It would not be much of a loss if Microsoft decided to pull the plug. Don't think they haven't taught about it. A three percent market share or 19 million desktop users does not even come close to the numbers that still use Windows 2000, never mind Windows 98. I of course don't wish this to happen, but it is one logical outcome.

All these crazy profits quarter after quarter, and they can't lower the prices...
Unreal greed.
Not greed at all. Likely some of the value of your parent's or grandparent's retirement funds (or maybe your friend's) might well partially depend on Apple stock. If Apple didn't sustain a strong bottom line when they could, those retirement funds could sue Apple for scr*wing your old relatives out of some of their retirement investment as the value of the stock tanks.

I can't seem to save it. I put the cd in the drive, Quicktime opens & does nothing. When I click on File, the only drop downs are, Open URL, Open File and Open Recent....all of the save options are not highlighted.
I know there is something simple that I'm leaving out but have been having a hard time with my brain lately...... please excuse the mess!! :confused::confused:
when I pull up Spotlight, it has it listed down in movies and top hit but again, Quicktime opens full screen and just remains black.
HELP a girl out my friends!! Please
thanks:D

Thanks. So I guess it is my imagination, the extra screen real estate. Maybe I'm just longing for higher resolution :[
That is one thing I dearly wish the 13" MBP had, a panel the same resolution as the 13" MBA...

On the topic of photo storage and editing, I ran across this blog post in an app on my iPad called Photoverse. It details how to use star ratings to thin out a shoot without dumping any photos.

Thanks for sharing this app Dale! I have a lot of research to do! :)
ok 100Teraflops I use a Mac Pro daily for Music and Photography, The Mac Pro is a good beastie but alone it cant do the job, it must be paired up to a good Monitor, IPS panel if possible, I did use apple's but found the Dell's re-produced colour better. When you purchase your DSLR will you shoot RAW or Jpeg, think about it, RAW may be bigger files, but you can keep producing a good quality image from just 1 RAW file, On the subject of a scratch disk try and dedicate a complete disk as scratch.
my MP is set up as follows,
bay 1 :500gb for OS & apps
bay 2 :320gb as Scratch Disk
bays 3 & 4 : both have 1tb hdd's in a raid 1 configuration for music and stuff
All my RAW files & Aperture library are on a WD my book studio 4TB edition in a raid 1 via fw800 giving me 2TB to use, The system is simple and it works well. the big hdd's are all green WD drives. Hdd's are cheap now, but get the biggest you can afford (don't buy at the apple store), I find using Raid 1 I spend less time now backing up. The hardest part of photography is deleting images, you may take 100 shots and find only 2 of them are keepers, but getting rid of blurry, out of focus files will free up a lot of space,
you have had some excellent advice on here so far, and it will be nice to hear how you finally set up your workflow, keep us posted :)
Thanks for recommending the specs of a quality monitor. Your Mac Pro HDD configuration is simple and easy to understand. Are you using striping from OS X or did you set you RAID 1 with only two drives? I agree that it is very hard deleting photos, as I do not delete photos after I take them. I wait a few days or longer, and then decide if they are keepers. However, I take photos of my family etc and occasionally automobiles and landscape. Also, you are right that I have received excellent advice from the forum members. You folks rule! :)
I will keep you all posted. I am thinking that I should buy a Mac Pro soon! From what I have read on this forum, a new Mac Pro is not expected until 4Q 2011 or 2012. :eek: I do not want to wait that long for a stupid processor chipset. :D A few months is optimal, but 6-8 is not feasible. Thanks again for sharing knowledge and swapping ideas!

I can't believe 3G is new for the Americans.
Land of the free indeed....:p
Indeed...the US mobile industry is probably the crappiest in the whole world...but this is no surprise...they also assert the following:
- "american football" is the real football;
- America means one country;
- "U.S. champion" means "World champion".
So no surprises here...move along, citizens...

Hi! I have the same problem and could you tell me how to disable the wiki server?
Thanks!
Launch the Server app, choose Wiki on the left and slide the big switch to the off position.

Wow. Let's hope it looks better than that diagram. Anyways this would be the ultimate iPod (Could be a 4 or 5 inch screen). Of course, the screen needs to be more scratch resistant than previous generations. And they have to bump up the resolution on their iTunes store. But I'd be surprised if we see this anytime soon.

As an experiment I downloaded Angry Birds Rio HD to my iTunes account and copied it to the shared user folder.
I logged out of my user account (not iTunes) on my Mac and logged in as my wife. I dropped the .ipa file into her iTunes account and the app synced and works fine.
I never had to be logged into iTunes with my login at all to get the app transfered.
Thoughts on how this is possible? To easy?
