Turn off the "Positive" or "Negative" voting system.
How is it that more than 10% of the people ranking this post can determine that news of the new Mac OS is negative. Especially when said OS is on-time and will offer way more functionality than we quite yet know. Not to mention the fact that this OS will natively enable another competing OS -- all without blinking the proverbial eye.
I've read the posts, and I don't see a single objection of substance. While I wish that Macs were free and there was no war, poverty or disease, I also think that people shouldn't be allowed to take the fun out of this site simply because their parents haven't yet asked them to:
1. Get a job
2. Move out of the basement
3. Get a place of their own
4. Pay their own bills
5. Realize there is more to life than PSP3, XBox 360, SecondLife.com, World of Warcraft, etc.
:rolleyes:

had the screen do that funky line thing a couple times as well
Well there could be a few things going in here. I have to agree with the posts. I have owned an G3/500, 2 G3/900's and currently have a spec'd out G3/800. The biggest issues I have found with these laptops; 1.) The well documented video chip issue. Killed both of my 900's. The second is the pathetic plastics that line the case. But I digress, first things first the hard drive is indeed a pretty easy fix. You will need to get your hands on an ide hd, which are cheap as all get out. Look to www.newegg.com, www.computergeeks.com or whatever place you buy from. Second you will need the take-apart guide. Being that if you take your iBook into any MacStore they will laugh at you and take pity on a perfectly good mac that is not on par with a very fickle community.

That is the guide for step-by-step. Not the easiest, but not all that hard, I would suggested using a digital camera to take pics along the way. And a handy tool is an egg carton to separate out the various screws.
Good luck, feel free to message me off list if you need any help.

yeah I saw that earlier...if they can get some sweet games on there then it might be some viable competition! i wonder what the specs are?
1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655
512MB of RAM
1GB of ROM
~4" Screen
Word is that it'll have a PSP Marketplace for games (in addition to the Android Marketplace) - and I'll guess the ribbon ui will be incorporated somehow.

VW's spots were both brilliant! The Beetle one was great and the Darth Vader Kid was funny, too. The Audi ones were a bit long, funny, but you really have to want to watch them. I know they're teasers, but I couldn't even finish the Kenny G one. I will say I chuckled a bit at the first Scared Straight one when the guy said he has enough money to bring the stuffed bear back to life. Great line!
Agreed, the VW ones are awesome! The Audi, not so much.

I think it's possible you will see Apple come out with a different stand-alone display for a different market segment.
Apple sells a boatload of laptops, and everyone where I work that uses them, has a screen in their office that they connect to when they are in. The ACD is just not the screen for this market segment. It's too expensive and has all kinds of high end qualities that these folks don't need (or even know about.)
We might see Apple come out with a screen something like that rumored docking station. Glossy, thin, built in isight etc., and made primarily to connect to your laptop. The screen part however, would likely be of "acceptable" quality only, like the one in the current 17" iMac, and thus cheaper. This is a fairly low-end, cost conscious market though and not somewhere Apple generally tries to compete, so who knows.
Apple coming out with a low end display, is like saying Apple is going to release a cheap midtower. It's not going to happen. The low end display and midtower are already out, it's called an iMac.

So the Verizon deal really didn't help them with the iPhone and Apple lost again more marketshare in the smartphone market. Not good especially as Google now ships almost 40 million Android phones per quarter. Maybe a cheap iPhone nano might help Apple to get back into a competing position.

Did u have version 1.0 in itunes? THe way it works is when itunes on mac or computer updates apps from app store, it moves old copy of the app to trash folder on mac or recycle bin on PC. So you can fish it out from there. If you never had it in itunes before then you are out of luck.

It's not like a hidden thing that iTunes purchases will only play in iTunes or on an iPod - every single person who buys from the store knows this beforehand. The justification is the exact same justification for locking Mac OS X to Apple's hardware. So if you buy from the iTunes store, you have agrred to accept the fact that the file will only play on iPods and iTunes and have no reason to be mad at Apple for this- if you don't like the DRM, don't buy from iTunes: buying the CD and ripping it is always a DRM-free way to get your music on whatever player you should choose.

This is really messing me up. My upgrade is available in 3 weeks and I figured I can just wait the extra month to get the 5 but if it is coming out in October then I don't know if i should just get the 4 as soon as my upgrade is ready and sell it when the 5 comes out or if I should just wait. My 3GS doesn't have any real problems but i just feel that after over a year and a half its time for something new.

I was not aware that I broke a rule. I read some of the other blogs and thought this is in the same vein. Now what? MS
thats why you should read the rules, if you dont, you wouldnt be aware would you ? lol, FYI, this isn't a blog, it's a message board, whatever rules apply elsewhere, they dont apply here, thats why this board has it's own set of rules ;)

hi thanks all for your help. i just checked and i dont have keynote and here in the UK its �50 - ouch! i can't afford that either, at the moment im trying to find a way to pay of apple protection for my ibook at �200 - so i think iWorks will have to wait a while. it was hard enough getting the money to pay for iLife '05 Up-To-Date which should have come free. ahh! i love my iBook and all, and i thought once i shelled out all the money for it, i would have to pay anything on top. how wrong could i be! �200 insurance, iLife �15, ms works 4 apple �100 OR iWork at �50. it all adds up!
any other ideas or should i give in now?
thanks again though!

I have the ARC-1880i card so I can answer some of your questions
1. Setup. Very straightforward ARECA provides a web interface that is very reliable
2. Reliability. So far I had no problems, I cannot say the same for highpoint, with that card I already had 2 RAID 5 crashes. The areca is handling an array of 4 SSDs on RAID 0 (I perform daily backups for this one to a velociraptor)
3.I just flashed the EFI driver following NANOFROG's advice and with that I was able to boot from the SSD that look as a 480GB image to OS X
4.Cable setup. I have 2 SAS-SATA cables and was able to route them to the second ODD were I have the 4 SSD drives

I have an Xbox and a PS2, both on my home network, neither is modded in any way. Is there a way to use either of these puppies to Fold while I am not gaming? With new consoles around the corner (well, in the next year or so), I am less concerned about running the current ones into the ground. It'd be cool if they could at least be put to some use.

iFixit indicates that the process for the 2011 is far less involved/obnoxious than previous models: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac-Intel-21-5-Inch-EMC-2428-Teardown/5485/1
That was the best news about the teardown of the new iMac. When they where introduced, I was disappointed that they didn't have the 500GB SSD option which was a show stopper for me ... but now I might get one and add the nice 500GB SSD to it. Was way to complicated with the old iMacs ... for the new ones it looks really easy.
