Define "need to use." I use Pages for all of my reports, and output to PDF for presentation to my clients. If they need a Word version, I export it as Word. Never had a single complaint. I present in Keynote quite often, sometimes saving the slides in PDF form. Never had a complaint there either; in fact the Keynote presentations in particular get rave reviews.
I don't get why people manufacture so many impediments that don't exist to using something other than MS Office. I would loathe the thought of being chained to MS Office, or anything else for that matter, for the rest of my life.
Exactly, I use Pages and Keynote at School for my Engineering classes all of the time. I never have any problems but if there were a problem then I would save the document in .PDF in Pages or Keynote or possibly as a quicktime movie in Keynote. I just don't get what problems besides missing font problems people have I guess....
That does remind me that Pages needs an equation editor though. I have been using MathType to copy and paste equations into Pages or Omnigraffle if I am doing a schematic and would like an equation editor in both of those programs. Omnigraffle could use better dimensioning tools before it will be a full Visio replacement too.

Ah, but YOU'RE missing the point completely. As resolutions inscrease the interface can scale up because it is resolution independent in 10.5. Web pages are NOT resolution independent for the most part. Photos, graphics, interfaces are not. So, when you're looking at your killter 3000x2000 monitor yes your icons and OS interface can scale up and your photos will look very crisp BECAUSE they are vector or have extra resolution to draw from. Websites on the other hand will be fixed at 800x600 or whatever and unless you want them to be miniscule on your screen as they are shown pixel for pixel, they will have to be blown up in some way.
You will still - for example on a 144dpi screen - be able to double the size of the original web page and see what the designer intended to display at 72dpi without any loss. Display quality between 100% & 200% however will be up to the linear interpolation algorythm that the app (or core image) uses.
Any further than that, a regular 72 dpi image will be subject to the normal interpolation rules of graphics scaling i.e. it will get blurry. IMO.
Edit: I havn't tried to put a hi-rez jpeg on a web page for a while, but last I checked, the browser will force it to display at 72dpi if it's not constrained by widths & heights.

We have an Apple Store in Holyoke Mass and there is also an Apple independent Authorized retail store and service center in Northampton called Yes Computers (http://www.yescomputers.com/Yes_Computers/Home.html). It is a great store and I have bought things there over the last few years.
This weekend they had an overnight break in. Check out Masslive.com story here (http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/2011/04/northampton_police_seek_help_i_1.html)
here is a link to the video that is off the thieves making off with the goods.

I hope they catch these guys. It sounds like they have been making their way up and down the East Coast..
Awful news!
I hope those low-life scumbags are caught!
Question is, what kind of security did the authorized reseller have, seems like they had an easy time breaking in.

Hello,
I have been using my Mac mini PowerPC G4 (1.5) with satisfaction, but recently its superdrive (Matshita DVD-R UJ-845C, firmware rev. DPP9) stopped to pull inside any disc (despite I made use of it very seldom) and now I am in doubt if it is better for me to change it with a new one or leaving it unworking and make use of an external firewire optical drive (e.g. LaCie d2 DVD RW 22x ...). Any piece of advice is very wellcome.
Best Regards

You can use your MacBook's HD, just not as an internal... only an external.
If you have a proper enclosure (Remember, MacBook HDs are SATA, iBooks are IDE!) you can use it over USB or FireWire.
As for RAM, though, you're out of luck. Gotta grab up a 1GB stick of DDR, which is unfortunately expensive. A 512 would also help, in a pinch.

AT&T sold 3.6, apple says 18.65. Did verizon sell the rest of the ~15 million? :eek:
I haven't looked at the numbers, but Apple would be including global sales.

The G3 slot-load iMacs used 8x/4x/24x CD-RW drives.
My G3 iMac had a similar problem with a spindle of no-name discs. The first attempt to burn always failed, but if I inserted the disc a second time, it worked. Try burning to the same disc again.

well, maybe Microsoft will sell nicely priced Windows home and pro for packaging with Parrallels and as a coupon with boot camp.
anything is cheaper than the retail price.

Anyone else notice that iTunes now has an option to burn CD-TEXT?
It's called "Include CD Text" and is in the burning preferences.
