Hello all,
I am trying to find a way of including graphics into TexShop (latex) document.
Used the 2 following command lines but no success:
\usepackage{graphicx}
\includegraphics[width=2in]{Weibull}
I have Image Magic and ghostcript 8 installed. Any suggestions, please?

I think that local connection is what they used - cool stuff. Is that in MX 2004 or the newest version?
clayj - that works in the single flash object on your page - layers in the same main file. What local connection is doing is having two or more separate flash objects on a page among regular html text and images and communicating between them.

Is it worth this price or not?
Short answer: yes, it's a decent price for that machine assuming it has no cosmetic or functional issues.
Thinking of buying it but not sure yet... (I use an intel MacBook too, but I have always wanted a PowerPC mac :p)
If you just want a machine to fool around with for fun, this one ain't bad - but bear in mind that it is almost a technological orphan from Apple's perspective, as Apple is continuously moving away from supporting the PowerPC. It can't run the most current OS anymore, and software updates will dry up soon. It's still a good second machine though.

from John Gruber at Daringfireball.net (http://www.daringfireball.net)
i have to agree that would be even cooler than a new phone; a new mobile platform entirely. unlikely, but cool.
Don't think it's that unlikely.
1. Take NEXTSTEP. Add some OS X enhancements, such as the GUI, most of Darwin, but leave out new frameworks etc unless they're absolutely necessary, and forget about 90% of the device drivers and stuff as they're unnecessary.
2. Add Java (at least, J2ME)
3. Add Quicktime
Result: OS X Lite. They could easily have been keeping this in development for the last ten years, as they did OS X for Intel, without anyone knowing. For the most part, it's a set of Makefile flags added to Mac OS X.
But that's not the only way of doing it. An alternative is to take an OS like Mac OS 9, remove some of the unnecessary stuff, upgrade the GUI a little, and have Java and maybe CarbonLib. Very low on the resource requirements, very efficient.
Apple doesn't have to build this thing from the ground up. It already has two candidates in terms of old systems that have 90% of the functionality required and just need tweaking and a UI overhaul to make them "just work".

I see you are back in full force. I have been avoiding the whole 6G thing since the performance of most multichannel cards with standard drives is fine. If you are running an array based on SSD drives then I can see the value at this time, but no mechanical drive is going to max out 3G (SATA II) at this time. BTW Nano, running an xserve now, made life so much easier. Have two Sans Digital SAS Chassis, 316X2, dual SAS connectors for 2400MB/S performace, and it has made dealing with raid simple. No more time out errors, no more hard drives dropping out, nothing. Not sure if plunking down $2500 per chassis is worth it but for me with no headaches it was.
Peace,

I noticed in the linked document that Xray tools could be written "using the D programming language." I wonder if this is the first sign of Apple finally deciding to come up with a replacement for Objective-C. D is certainly a very nice looking language and, along with LLVM, would allow Apple to have something that looks like it could one day be on par with the excellent C#.

The thing is, though, that all of this data is used by Final Cut.
I've known professional software to be very very picky about where files are located and relocating them can freak it the **** out.
Currently, I'm not using any RAID solution. So Final Cut recognizes that all these bajillion million files are spread across four drives.
How would I ensure that Final Cut doesn't spaz out and have an anxiety attack over "missing" files?

:( Oh well. I suppose the 6G mercury still outperforms it's 3G predecessor even on a SATA2 controller ? You reckon it's worth putting a 6G Mercury on the Areca controller where I assume it should really shine or stick both on the onboard sata2 controller and reduce complexity.
Assuming that disk does what they claim in terms of sustained sequential throughputs (the 3.0Gb/s units didn't, but weren't slouches), it would fare better on the Areca than the ICH.
What you need to pay attention to however, is the random access performance which is what OS and applications rely on (so far, I've not been impressed with that particular bit of performance from 6.0Gb/s SSD's - I've not gone out and looked at all of them, but it's not what I'd have hoped for, which is at least double the previous drives).
This bootcamp disk, I am suppose to burn it using the bootcamp utility or is it included ? This is really my first mac you see, hence all these trivial questions about bootcamp and dual booting.
It's on the system disks, but you can also download it, then burn it to a DVD as well (might be a good idea, just in case there's a newer version).
So bootcamp is just a partitioning and driver preparation/injection? utility.
Yes.
Where as in my case I am using two different SSD's and not sharing one with OSX. Hence bootcamp is of no real purpose to me other than the drivers it has for Win7.
Correct. The only thing on that disk that could be useful, are the Windows drivers (installed by running the setup.exe file on the system disks). If you're not running wireless however, Windows 7 should be able to the latest drivers on it's own (only the wireless drivers seemed to be problematic IIRC, so run it if you're using a wireless keyboard and mouse).
So I can just stick a win7 dvd in and boot off the thing by holding option key and selecting the superdrive to boot from and Windows 7 setup will start ? And once setup finishes I just stick the bootcamp diver cd in and install the drivers or do I have to provide them during Windows 7 setup ?
Yes. Install Windows, then the drivers off of the system disk (setup.exe).
Further information can be found here (http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/).

I think part of the huge markup on the BSE skins and Zagg skins, and every other companies skins are out there, takes into account loss due to delivery. The Post Office is notorious for having poor delivery reliability or damages materials en route, so these companies just absorb that into their pricing.
It makes sense, I mean, really how much does it cost to mass produce these skins? They're charging anywhere from $20 - $40, for materials that cost maybe $3-$4 to mass produce.
Don't get me wrong, I really like my BSE skin, and think it's worth the price, but you should expect good customer service with such a huge markup.
I would say you're spot on with that estimate since they all offer "lifetime warranties" that you conveniently have to spend 3 or 4 bucks to get :)

Well, I've tried Virtual II now and it seems to work pretty well although I'm struggling with the keys (I'm trying to play Lode Runner and I find the movement keys (I,J,L,M) cumbersome).
I tried "Use arrow keys as joystick" but that didn't seem to work consistently for some reason.
Basically I just want to play Lode Runner in the same way as MAME's Lode runner (arrow keys for movement, ALT and CTRL for digging). I have several mazes I made myself back in the day when I used my own Apple ][ actively, so it would be great to play all that again, but on my Mac of course. What would the simplest solution be for that (Virtual II seems overkill and a waste of money when I'm not going to take more advantage of its features and the fact that its keys can't be remapped, or so it seems.

well what do you think?
The game is great looking visually, but I personally don't care for flight games. The last game based around planes that I enjoyed was U.N. Squadron on the SNES. That game was awesome.

A screen is made up of little dots called "pixels". A button is, say, 35 pixels wide. I just made that number up, but just pretend.
As screen technology advances, more pixels get crammed in per square inch, making for sharper graphics. Unfortunately, buttons would still be 35 pixels long. Everything would get smaller.
Resolution Independance means that the size of stuff on the screen does not shrink as more dots are added - instead, they simply become sharper, staying their existing sizes.
Understand?
Does it mean that everyone will have the same screen "real estate" though? Meaning the whole OS will be the same size on a macbook as on 30 inch display? Or can you change everything accordingly?

I currently have a iMac, a Time Capsule and an Airport express that I have used to extend my wireless signal. I has been working perfectly for about 6 months. Now it has stopped working. The Time Capsule will not recognize my ethernet connection and is flashing yellow. I know my ethernet is working because my kids computer can get on the internet fine. But I can't get on the internet from my iMac. I have tried resetting the modem, unplugging, soft reset of TC as well as hard reset and no help. How can I get the TC to recognize it is connected to the ethernet? It may be simple but I am computer challenged. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey all, I currently live in Japan, and would like to get some experiences working at Apple. I haven't decided which floor I would like to work at, but it will most likely be the Genius Bar.
Now, to get in to my main point, is it possible to work at the Apple Store under the age of 18? I have no idea about the labor laws, work permit, and things like that, but I just to make sure. I saw on other thread that in state of Nevada, a person should be above the age of 16 to get a job.
BTW, I'm 17 currently.

Hey gang. This is my first time posting, but I've been following the site for a couple of months now, waiting in vain for news of the MBP w/ a Core 2 Duo ;-) yes, another one of THOSE people.
Anyway, this is the first of a series I did. Probably more forthcoming, some of them came out really well.

Okay thanks, if I just hook it up to iTune cause I wanna add a CD is that okay? Like just syncing.
Right. You'll be OK as long as your keep hitting "Cancel" when the pop-up (which will appear when you start to sync) asks if you want to update to the latest iPhone software. You can check a box to have it stop reminding you, but I leave it unchecked so that it reminds me I gotta keep an eye out (basically here) for a new JB.
