The thing is, though, that all of this data is used by Final Cut.

People who want an iPhone will buy an iPhone.
My point was - with either rumored scenario, it seems that 3GS owners looking for a upgrade are going to deal with more buyers remorse than normal.
Buying something 6+ months before the new version gets released is normally not an issue, so if a new iPhone comes out in Sept, I could reasonably get an iPhone 4 now and not be a "generation behind" so quickly. But if I were to get one now (expecting a Sept launch) and the new one comes out in June, that'll suck. But waiting till June just to find out the new one will be in Sept would also suck... There doesn't seem to be a way to "win" with this update...
The line about looking elsewhere comes from my phone seemingly deteriorating in front of my eyes and the need for an upgrade not being satisfied by Apple. I'm not a blind fanboy that HAS to stick with an iPhone - it's just been the best phone I've used for the past 4 years (user since 2G). But with this shift in the timeline, the "new phone every 2 years" turned into a "new phone every 28-30 months"? That's too long. My phone probably wont last another 6 months...

There's a lot more to it than just x megapixels = y size print. However, as a really basic guidline you can look at this chart (http://forums.adoramapix.com/entries/228318-resolution-and-image-quality). In addition to straight dpi/ppi your choice of paper and the printer used will make a world of difference and change the effective resolution.
Another issue is going to be viewing conditions. If you print A0 and plan on holding the print in front of your face in bright lighting you are going to see pixels. On the other hand the same size hung on a wall and viewed from a few feet away will look much better. Then on top of that the type of glass used in the frame can make a difference in the look of the print.
Other considerations would be, did you crop the print? How sharp is the lens you used and how well focused is the picture? What did you do in post processing?
That being said, I've sold 20x30 prints based off of a 10MP images. You won't find those prints in a gallery but they still looked pretty good. With a few tests and a little effort you should be able to make good prints off of an 18MP file.
Hope I didn't ramble too much and you got some useful information out of that. :)

I blush, and thanks.
Just make sure that you let us know what it is you do end up with!
A Mini is also not a bad idea.
1) Get a refurbished one to save some bucks. Max out the RAM yourself - save bucks over Apple doing it.
2) Add FW external HDDs for storage. They can be used on a Mac Pro or an iMac later on.
3) With the money saved on the Mini, you can get a high quality monitor. Also transferable to a Mac Pro or an iMac later (as a 2nd monitor). A good monitor can used for several to many years comfortably. Imho, it's better to produce better photos (because the monitor is accurate) and wait some extra seconds, than to get a faster computer but put out photos with inaccurate colour.
4) Start investing in the SW tools that you will want/need. These are also transferable to a new system.
5) When you finally spring for a fully loaded, 24 core, 512MB RAM, 72 TB Storage, 4 graphic cards, 4 Thunderbolt ports iMac Pro Supreme Tower all of the peripherals and software moves too.
It's how I got started. A small Mini with a 23" ACD. Everything I bought to go with it also had to work with a (future) Mac Pro. Eventually I was working with Photoshop files that were approaching 1GB, on a Mini with only 1GB of memory (the days when opening a Mini involved spludging).
There was a lot of HDD thrashing. I was afraid that PS would crash, so I saved often. It took so long to save a big file, that I could go out and mow the lawn or do the dishes while it thrashed away. I got a lot of housework done that summer. Ironically, that Mini never crashed. Not once.
Eventually I got my current Mac Pro, and it was like moving from steam trains to warp drive. All the peripherals and SW moved too, so the only cost was the Mac Pro itself plus the extra HDDs I added at the time.
That Mini then got hooked up the TV where it served up all of our music throughout the house, and movies to the TV for a couple of years. I've upgraded that Mini to a newer one but the first one still works, and I keep it as a spare.
Nah... I just feel sentimental for it. What a workhorse!

Your function example is a sum of squares, hence the a*a +b*b etc
Sum of cubes is a*a*a +b*b*b etc and that will give your 11k as per what he got
For your assignment, my approach would be to have 3 variables set to sum of squares, sum of cubes, and mean of squares and print out the desired variable to give your answer if the integers are within the desired range

Thunderbolt is a mini-display-port with a few extra pins.
EDIT: I can't quickly find detailed information, but it may be simply MDP with a more complicated and adaptable controller. Either way, it's not just a re-name, it's a whole new technology that just uses an existing port as its interface.

Hm, well I just bought this cable from the apple store yesterday.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/TP320LL/A
and to answer the above question, yes I did install the drivers.
Sounds strange. Do you have other Devices connected to your MacBook at the same time? Does your Macbook work with other interfaces / harddiscs you plug in?
Try to chat with the Apogee Support. It's very quick and friendly.

It's a damn shame about not being able to boot off more than one volume that is on the 1880 controller as I ultimately wanted to have 2x 240GB 6G mercury drives each with a different OS in pass through mode, now it looks like I will go for a slightly cheaper SATA2 SSD for the Win 7 install since it will be off the onboard controller.
There's not that many SSD's out yet that can exceed a 3.0Gb/s controller (most reach sustained sequential throughputs of ~250MB/s or so, and 3.0Gb/s is good for ~270 -275MB/s), so you don't need to panic over this.
I suppose I could still RAID0 2x 240GB 6G Mercury drives and use bootcamp to install on a 240GB partition dedicated to Windows 7, but this would be a riskier setup since I would loose access to both OS if the RAID0 played up. The Mac would not have trouble booting two OS off a partitioned RAID0 volume would it?
You won't be able to do this. :(
Boot Camp doesn't work with RAID (hardware or software). So you'll have to use a single disk on the ICH (no need to run the Boot Camp utility, as it's a partition tool). The BC disk does include Windows drivers however (setup.exe), so you may need to run those, particularly for wireless drivers.
You can place the OS X disk either on the ICH or RAID card (flash the firmware, set the disk as the boot location).
The mercury drives do sound reliable though, do you think a RAID0 with the 2x new 6G Mercury's is viable option? Or should I get those RAID edition Mercury drives, what makes them more suitable for RAID anywhere?
The only difference between them is the amount of over-provisioning (additional capacity used for wear leveling; 7% for the Pro series, 28% for the RAID Edition series).
There doesn't seem to be any other differences (same controller and firmware timings from what I can tell). Both have been used successfully in stripe sets on both the ICH and hardware RAID cards. So if you're doing more reads than writes, the Pro series would be fine. If you're going to do a lot of writing (massive amounts of data), then the RE series may be the way to go. Another trick, is not to fill the SSD up all the way.
Nanofrog, could you please tell me what is the special cable that I need to get to use the 2nd SFF-8087 internal port on the Areca 1880 to connect an external enclosure?
1.0 meter SFF-8087 to SFF-8088 cable (http://www.pc-pitstop.com/sas_cables_adapters/8887-1M.asp)

Ok so I posted a week or so ago about a bad experience I had with a firewire 800 external drive. Anyway, Im sending it back and getting a refund but I wanted to confer with you guys about a good, but cheaper (under $100 please) firewire 800 drive thats good for recording to. This will be my recording HD. Can anyone recommend some for me? and shooting a link to a place that sells it would be appreciated! ..and the more recommendations the better

I tried using iCal when I first switched over in '06. I integrated my Google calendar with it, but stopped using it because I often access my calendar in places other than my home computer. So I stuck with Google calendar and its "cloud" capabilities.
I know I can get MobileMe to access my iCal anywhere, but I rather not pay for a service when there's free (though shoddy like google cal) alternatives out there.
Two words for ya... Mobile Me. Sign up for the sixty day free trial, rumor has it that it's going to be free May 18 th or so. I use it for everything. Wednesday I left my company laptop at home, wasn't a big deal. All of my email accounts go through it, plus iDisk, iCal, and my address book were all accessible from another computer. I love how my iPad, iMac, and Winders laptop all stay in sync (to include bookmarks) effortlessly. Even if you don't get it free, retailers sell it at a discount.

It will be enough for the applications, PS CS5 takes a bit more than 1GB, LR takes about 100MB away.
But depending on the resolution and format (RAW or other) you take your photos in, and the amount of photos you take, 64GB might not be enough, unless you plan to use an external FW800 or USB 2.0 HDD.
to best utilize the ssd the programs must be installed on the SSD as well as putting the pictures on the SSD? or can the pictures be put in an external HDD?

Using GSP and Iphoto only makes sense if the photo's have the GSP location information as part of the photo. So that mean that the Camera taking the picture has a GSP reciever in it, which is great outside, but GPS does not work indoors
My father has a map in his car. When he's in a tunnel or carpark, I believe it switches to using motion sensors to determine where he is. This is pretty accurate.
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.
Assuming apple's not making a camera ... perhaps Apple will simply make the iPhone record your location during the day. Then when you sync at night, it can upload where you were that day (integrated with google maps?). And it'll then optionally sync that data (your location) with the time your pictures were taken. That way we don't have to buy a new camera yet :)
