I don`t think changing categories will help your sales much, the best strategy would be sending interesting press releases to sites, blogs, any kind of media that writes about mac world.
Example, once we sent an interesting text about one of our apps to an italian app-covering site, thay published the story, and the downloads went up by almost 1000% in the period of next 10,15 days...

It can be pretty tricky, as for orchestral stuff I often use LA scoring strings for strings, East West for brass and woodwinds and symphobia for weirder scoring tools.
As for everything else, there are a load of great Kontakt libraries available, from mellotrons to harpsichords, blues harps to clavs.
Basically I reckon there is no 1 library out there that does it all, so Komplete 7 is a pretty good place to start, you can always add more libraries to it as you go along.
What is your budget? LA scoring strings is over $1000 for instance!

or is it just that at its "default" values out of the box, it gives a hyped picture?
Exactly. The HP LP3065 out of the box is very bright, vibrant and not realistic to SWOP printing. But it is beautiful to look at in this state.
It calibrates down to SWOP really well.
Check this out:
http://www.anandtech.com/displays/showdoc.aspx?i=2950
Visit their report on the calibration of the monitor and see how well it does.
It's sad to see all those amazing colors disappear. But we keep a couple of profiles around -- One for Print, One for general daily use, One for web design to SRGB.
Great Great Monitor. Can't say enough good about it.
I like it better than our Dell 30 HC.

no one seems to be pointing out that they got rid of educational pricing for iPods... that's a bummer.
They did lower the prices overall, so I don't see a problem. You can get an 80GB iPod for less than I bought my 60 GB (with the discount). They probably also figured most people getting an iPOD (not necessarily doing the purchasing) are students, and they didn't like the hassle of doing the Student ID checks.
I would like to see a bigger education discount in the computer area. As a teacher, the price is still a little high. It would be nice to start the Macbooks at just under $1000 with a DVD burner with the 1.83 Ghz... or I should look into a career that makes buying Macbooks a BREEZE...
by the way... how many times is iTUNES 7 going to "determine Gapless Playback Information" I hope this isn't a daily process. It has already done it 3 times after connecting my iPOD.

I am having a devil of a time getting deinterlaced output from FCE 4. I definitely want DI movie files because the delivery target is always going to be a computer, never a TV.
My source clips are 1080 60i, from a Sony camera. I can import them into FCE OK and arrange them on a timeline.
I have tried turning on deinterlacing every single place I see it, but playing the exported mov always shows really ugly interlacing artifacts.
Attempt 1: I have tried adding the DI filter to each clip in the Browser, rendering, and exporting the sequence as a self contained quicktime movie. No luck. But if I export the clip to a mov (by right-clicking it in the Browser and choosing Export/Quicktime Movie) THAT mov looks fine and clearly has deinterlacing applied.
Attempt 2: I have tried exporting the project "Using Quicktime Conversion" and turning on the DI checkbox in the Size options... No luck.
There is surely SOMETHING I am doing wrong but I can't figure it out.
I looked in to the JES deinterlacer but it won't work on MTS files, plus FCE won't even let you import MTS files from the desktop... they have to be right out of the camera, which seems daffy to me.
I would be super appreciative of any tips. This is the second to last problem I need to solve to make this video camera useful. (The next will be figuring out how to get my deinterlaced mov files to Vimeo, which demands mp4 I think.)
I am finding the world of video editing to be about a million times more complex and frustrating than I expected. I'm going back to still photography. ;)

Yea I'd suggest you sleep it, when it's always running the HDDs are spinning along with the fans and it's more uptime > sleep in terms of operation.
It won't kill the battery to sleep it multiple times a day, I don't sleep/wake it as mucha s you on a daily basis but you shouldn't have any problems.

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.

Try System preferences -> Sound-> Output, make sure the jack in selected under output not internal speakers. Restart itunes to make sure it recognizes the switch. Maybe test a set of headphones to ensure the jack is working properly. On the tv it should list right next to the input what it actually is, make sure the tv is set to that input and make sure it is an input not output. If it still doesn't work let us know.

Otterbox has a guarantee. If you need a new silicon they'll send you a knew one no questions asked.
Isn't the Otterbox guarantee only for one year? Perhaps one year warranty is good enough.
So....does the silicone case stretch out where it requires a replacement?

Who was asking why MS has to lockdown Windows with an absurd level of protection via WGA? Here is your answer.
so double the killer delete select all
I am quoting you because I LOVE your signature. That is a classic video that I have shown to many people.
Apple is starting to get a taste of the medicine Microsoft has been dealing with for years. I guess it means that Apple is becoming even more mainstream. Why would people go through so much trouble to crack it if it wasn't so popular?
(And by the way...I also love the new spell checking feature in Firefox 2. Why did it take so long and why did I never realize how much I needed it?)

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.
Directly from the Labor Standards Laws:
(Minimum Age)
Article 56. An employer shall not employ children
until the first 31st of March following their having fully
reached the age of 15 years.
2. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding
paragraph, outside of school hours, children above 13 full
years of age maybe employed in occupations in enterprises
other than those listed in items 1 through 5 of Annexed
Table No. 1, and which involve light labor that is not
harmful to the health and welfare of the children, with the
permission of the administrative office. The same shall
apply to children under 13 full years of age employed in
motion picture production and theatrical performance
enterprises.

Mine won't install the Win7 Service Pack 1 - it just constantly fails. I've tried every suggestion I've been able to find, mostly from the SevenForums.com site, to no avail.
From the litle bit of research I've done, it seems there are issues with Win7 updates with MBP as well as other machines.
I really think it's a Microsoft issue since it's happening with all different brands of hardware.
I guess we'll just have to wait for MS to release "fixed" updates. :(

The entrance you ant is the one by gregs and hsbc. It's open at about 6am ;). If you want in earlier go down to the abbey entrance to the left is a set of stairs. Go down them and cross the service road. Through the fire exit and up the stairs and follow the corridoor. It comes out bang opposite the apple store.

I think if you still have a 3GS, you should bump to an iPhone 4. If you have an iPhone 4 I would stick with it til ver 6. I agree with what this report is saying. The faster processor and camera will most likely make it's way to the phone, but Apple will likely stop there and wait for a screen size improvement for a later version. Apple is not known for just upgrading all of a device's components at once. They tinker with a couple things and slap a new version number. It's what happened with the iPad2. Many expected a higher res screen, but that would have been too many component upgrades.

Going to the VLC page I see that he downloaded a recent one and it specifically says Download latest VLC for Mac OS X 10.5 and later
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
But on 10.5.8 when he installed it it did say his architecture didnt support it.
So i am not sure he can install VLC at all?

Save those SHSH Blobs fast. I saw that 4.3.2 came out and right when I got back from lunch, fired up my laptop and saved them for my iPad 2. Also saved again for my iPhone just for good measure.
I'm probably going to be too late, still at work for a couple of hours :mad:
