I was a freshman at Purdue then. I was walking from class back to my dorm. I suddunly heard the national anthem playing from someones dorm room probably on the 6th floor or so, and I looked up and saw an American flag hanging out of a window. I thought that was kind of odd to see such patriatism in the middle of september. Then I noticed campus was pretty quiet, there wasnt the hustle and bustle of kids going b/w the dorms and the other buildings. when i finally got to my building and my floor the entire floor was sielent except for a quiet murmer of a tv down the hall. i looked in the door from where the tv was and my friend said simply "you have to see this" and when i say it, i was completely shocked. the first tower had been hit was smoking. minutes later all sorts of speculations were going around. i shot over to my computer to check the internet but the major news sites were all down with a simple text page that stayted what little was known. i remeber watching the second plane hit and thinking how much it looked like a fake scene from a B grade horror film. (remeber all the live pictures where taken from long range so the picture was grainy and shaky) b/w that time and the collapse of the towers i got an e-mail saying my lab at the end of the day had been cancled. it all was just shocking.

Glad I saw the software updates, ordered a 30G black refurb, but it's a 5G, so, I can get the higher res videos and play games. that works for me. Couldnt beat it for $199 + tax.

The small adapter is required to power the drive. miniSAS is data only, so you still need power.
The miniSAS cable connects the controller with the hard drives.
I see, thanks. So I take it without these adapters I can't use any 3rd party RAID solution for HDD's in the four internal bays as by default the hard drives in those bays just connect to the internal PCB channels and SATA power which are both located on the backplane? but with the adapter (for power only) it creates some space causing the HDD to be not plugged into the DATA PCB channels, thus allowing to connect the SAS cables from the controller into the hard drive sata ports.

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?

Hey,
So I am looking to buy a used/new iPhone. It has to be in good/working condition, has to be 8GB version, and you have to be willing to ship to Canada (which isn't a big deal). And PayPal is a must.
I am offering $370 Shipped OBO.
Either post here, PM me or email me at william@williamwilkinson.com with your offers.

That's quite exciting. From the Appleinsider article i linked to a few posts back the ambient light sensor intrigued me. I'll have to wait until i see the actual thing of course because of the vague qualities of patent sketches, but the different screen functionality looks neat and the "now playing" screen's different changing factors at the bottom is a nifty concept. We'll see what happens...

I won't offer any advice on size since that's a bit subjective but I will offer some advice on backup. When deciding what size and how many drives to buy spend most of your time thinking about your backup plan. Once you've settled on that then go get the drives.
I recently lost the 500gb drive in my 07 iMac. That's where my Aperture library was. My advice on backup is to keep it simple and redundant. I don't archive SD cards nor save non-keepers. What I did though was let Time Machine backup my Aperture Library (I manage all photos in Aperture) and I kept Aperture vaults on two seperate external hardrives. (So there are 4 drives involved already...5 if you count the one I left at my parents over Christmas as an offsite). Moral of the story. I put a new HD in the iMac (1TB WD Cavier Green) and got back every single bit of data and every photo with no issues. Luckily I had updated the vaults and had not taken any new photos before the HD crash.
BTW, I do the same for family home movies. They are all digital and the thought of loosing them is unfathomable.
Personally I believe a backup strategy is priority one no matter if you are noob or a seasoned pro. Those shots mean something to you and if you loose them they are gone forever.
Right now, I have copied all of my photos and videos to cds and dvds, so I here ya that protecting one's 'family memories' are priority. However, with a vast collection, do photographers burn photos and videos to discs? I think a Blu-Ray player would help since they hold up to 25 GB and 48 GB or so respectfully. Can an individual burn non-HD content to Blu-Ray discs? I should research before I assume!
Also, as of now, I save non-keepers, but I do not have a lot of photos. At least not yet. :D Although, I have deleted photos, but I still have some blurry photos and crappy videos.
Thanks for reiterating the importance of a backup plan!

Shopping Carts seem to be on the mind today!
I am helping a friend out with a website for her new business. The products are customizable, so we need the ability for the customer to select several options (using a form) such as Ribbon Color, Fabric Design, Size, etc. (more options than the typical). I am envisioning a form for each core product (shirt, belt, bag, etc.) and then several drop-down boxes for choosing options. Ideally this would all be hosted on my friend's website, not externally. Then, the customer would click "add to cart" and they would be taken off-site to the shopping cart system and could choose to "checkout now" or "continue shopping" (in which case they would be taken back to my friend's site with the option of adding more stuff to the cart, of course). Basically, the only thing we would have to assign is a price to each core product (all prices are static for the core products, the custom options are included at no additional cost) and pass that price onto the shopping cart. My friend would need to receive the info via e-mail notifying her of what to create for this customer.
Is PayPal's "Website Payments Standard" a good option for this sort of thing? My friend purchased the GoDaddy shopping cart, but that is just awful -- it takes you to a completely different site (where the shopping cart is hosted) and makes it impossible to return to the real site to choose more options! You are basically stuck on the shopping cart site and all products are there in this template that doesn't look anything like my friend's site.
It looks like the costs are strictly based on how much you sell... 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. Seems high, but there are no other fees AT ALL, so I don't know how that compares to others.
Anyway, let me know if you have any experience with this cart, or if you have other suggestions. I am definitely looking to purchase something, as I do not have the knowledge of security to do this myself.
Thanks!!
Jenny

The ability to take the iPhone (aka: your camera) away form your Mac during video chats presents some legit potential.
While this could be done (to an extent) with the original firewire iSights, the cable limited these kind of options.
I look forward to seeing how this shakes out.

Just listening to it on iTunes right now. Very different from the JD stuff. That's a pretty versatile Mr. Mouse. :)

I was able to get it working. Thanks for your instructions. Now I need to wait for TW to improve their service so I can actually get more than 5 secs of video stream. I would be very interested to know if anyone who has TW cable has been able to get this to work reliably.
I think your problem has more to do with low upload speed. Your upload is not fast enough to serve the video.

My OOP is pretty good. I'll take at look at some literature this week on asp.net and sql server. Looks like a fun learning curve. This gig apparently is only going to be part time, so I doubt the app will be that big of a deal unless the people hiring are complete idiots. anyway thanks for the help.

I'll be there eventually. I'll let you know what the line is like if I beat you there. I planning on 3:30 or so.
Let me know if you get there earlier.
Just got a report from someone I know that drove past there -- 4 people in line at the moment. Or at least that was 15 mins ago.
Going to grab a bite to eat and leave here shortly.
