Came across this article today.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4275/apple-now-using-samsung-ssds-in-macbook-air
There's a big difference in both read and write speeds.
If you look closely, Anandtech refers to a MacRumors thread that we started here 2 months ago. That said, the Samsung drive does appear to be a nice silent upgrade for those lucky enough to get it.

So those of us that are still using 3gS's (that are on their last leg) should prolly go ahead and get a 4, and then wait for the 6...
Not so awesome news, I shoulda got a 4 a few months back then, oh well, maybe I'll wait to see what the white 4 looks like if its released on the 26th...

So do the MBP boxes still have Tiger displayed on them?

I think the difference here is, with deCSS, once it was out there it was out there - DVDs, as physical objects, were beyond the reach of the studios, and all the various players/drives that were out there made it impossible to do anything about it for DVDs.
With FairPlay though, Apple can 'update' purchased music anytime users download a newer version of iTunes to make sure FairPlay keeps going for anyone who wants to keep buying from the iTunes Music Store.
iTunes update on Tuesday? :p
Can DVD Jon's DRM be so similar to Apple's that when iTunes updates and goes looking for Firplay protected content, it finds content protected by DVD Jon's DRM and updates that too?

ok 100Teraflops I use a Mac Pro daily for Music and Photography, The Mac Pro is a good beastie but alone it cant do the job, it must be paired up to a good Monitor, IPS panel if possible, I did use apple's but found the Dell's re-produced colour better. When you purchase your DSLR will you shoot RAW or Jpeg, think about it, RAW may be bigger files, but you can keep producing a good quality image from just 1 RAW file, On the subject of a scratch disk try and dedicate a complete disk as scratch.
my MP is set up as follows,
bay 1 :500gb for OS & apps
bay 2 :320gb as Scratch Disk
bays 3 & 4 : both have 1tb hdd's in a raid 1 configuration for music and stuff
All my RAW files & Aperture library are on a WD my book studio 4TB edition in a raid 1 via fw800 giving me 2TB to use, The system is simple and it works well. the big hdd's are all green WD drives. Hdd's are cheap now, but get the biggest you can afford (don't buy at the apple store), I find using Raid 1 I spend less time now backing up. The hardest part of photography is deleting images, you may take 100 shots and find only 2 of them are keepers, but getting rid of blurry, out of focus files will free up a lot of space,
you have had some excellent advice on here so far, and it will be nice to hear how you finally set up your workflow, keep us posted :)

'Painfully Slow' a relative term of course, but is correct in the fact that you will always get faster performance from native hardware.
That being said, I thin going to '98 is a good idea. Not as much Eye Candy to emulate. You probably won't feel much speed issues if you are using Excel, or Word, though those are available in OS X BTW.
But if you wish games - not a good idea. That truly is painful, and not what VPC was designed for.
Personally, I only find the need to use a PC for a few Apps like Summation, Carpe Diem, TrialMax (Legal apps), and MS Project (though FastTrack 8 is OS X native)
What softwares do you need VPC to run?

There are drivers, the OS just does a good job hiding them from you. ;)
TheWitePony-
Check out the "Print Center" app in your Applications/Utilities folder to add the printer. It should set it up automatically if the printer is connected correctly and turned on.

Thank you guys, I'm running to best buy on lunch and grabbing one. I have another question, I have my airport extreme set to only allow the specific MAC addresses of the devices I'm using. Would I be able to continue to use this feature with a switch?
If you can wait a few days to receive it, I'd order from Amazon. Just did a quick look at Best Buy and the ones that they have in stores are overpriced for what you get. $70 for the cheapest non-outlet item. I bought THIS (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001QUA6R0) switch from Amazon and it's been wonderful. I used it to be able to plug in my Tivo, Apple TV 2, Playstation 3, and Slingbox with only one Ethernet cord running from my office where the router is. That switch is only $25 and free shipping. No tax too depending on where you live.

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.

so I think the tax rate is 10%? I'm in champaign, no apple store here, sadly... hopefully I can get to an apple store by 3pm, but still haven't decided which one to go..
9.75% yeah basically 10. Ordering online I think you only pay 7.5% state sales tax (ABSURD) but if I tried to drive to a lower sales tax Apple store they might sell out. Oh well, I've saved enough to cover taxes anyways.

easiest way is to bounce the klopgeist click onto its own AUDIO track then cut and mute it when you want it to drop out.
or use a midi click and simply stop looping it at the point you want it to stop.

My son has an iPod which we have been able to connect to our home wireless router to give him internet access.
However, I have a second wireless router that I use for travelling product demonstrations. I don't have internet access on this router, I don't need it all I want to do connect wireless devices to a PC.
Now I have an old HP iPAQ and connecting it to my second router is a no brainer because all that stuff about gateways etc is irrelevant because I am not accessing the Internet. All I need is a WEP password and away it goes.
However, the iPod just doesn't work at all. I get the tick beside my second router after entering the WEP password but cannot ping or anything. In fact if my internet connected router is within range the iPod will ignore my selection and swap to that.
Am I missing something or does the iPod simply not work without the Internet?
