Lion still lacks Expos� for Safari tabs. This sucks because it only seems natural to 3-finger swipe down in fullscreen Safari to see all your tab windows (as you would in any other program). Instead you have to remember you have a tab open and move the cursor up to the top of the window to reveal them.
Am I crazy or does this seem like pretty low hanging fruit Apple should be on top of? :confused:
I feel you. Safaris full screen mode could be much better if we had an expose for all open tabs.

The main reason I hate this idea is, I have a 3G iPod, which is easily apple's most poorly designed ipod.
You can FEEL for the buttons to skip or pause or whatever. Once you touch, you've already skipped to the next song. Having to contantly put on the lock button is very annoying.
To imagine just holding this and accidently activating a million options...
I can hope this is either a decoy, or that somehow apple has figured out something we arent seeing from the diagrams.
If it's anything like the 3G model.. NO! NO! NO!!! Bad Apple!
BTW What happened to the super hip anime style "none-touch" ipod?

Well, they were pretty good. But why does this always happen? I swear that more then half of the footage I see shot with DSLRs are over exposed. That would be my main criticism of your stuff. I feel a bit lame criticizing you seeing as I certainly haven't made near as much content as you but imma keep going haha. Second would be that most of the songs I have heard (Although I can NOT figure out where. Seriously I was listening to them and I kept thinking "I have heard this a million times" but I can not figure out where). I didn't think the sound design was really that great, but it wasn't bad, it didn't distract me from the videos. All in all they were very watchable and pretty good

The ipod is dying. The touch is the only one which will survive the longest. People these days just like touch screens with features packed to the rafters and the classic, nano and shuffle are falling by the wayside.
Agreed, but the latest nano is pretty poor, was surprised, seems very unapple-like. There is room for a good ultra portable small music player (gyms etc, I see so many ipods) and for them to please, please make a good quality headphone as standard, the ones that come with ipods (of any price) is pathetic. So, let's see what they do.

Can't even browse the web with it. Or listen to music. Or use 1000's of apps. Or look at videos / pictures/ books.
But you can play dodgy emulated games that crash within two minutes, run more than one process at a time causing out of memory error messages. Play divx movies that work at less than 10fps. Overheat your battery by making a wifi hotspot.
:eek:
Ahem!
I've run several programs on my iPad at the same time without any hiccups.
AND those emulators you speak of work fine.
Oh and I have no battery issues.
Enjoy your walled garden! :cool:

I may be wrong but I suspect that the success of iPod / iTunes is as much about ease of use and pleasant experience that comes from Apple's, hopefully patented, software and hardware interfaces. There was inevitably going to be ways around the system like this but I am not convinced this news will herald a disaster for Apple.
I don't see clunky interfaced Zunes and the like suddenly becoming more tolerable because they can now hack a tune from iTunes to play on it. Perhaps a hack that allowed an iPod user to buy and run music from a cheaper source might be more successful and that would damage iTunes sales but at the same time increase iPod sales maybe?

Gotta grab up a 1GB stick of DDR, which is unfortunately expensive.
Awww :( I sold my old 1GB iBook DDR RAM for $27 on here to a user... Whatever.. The iBook doesn't get any use, so it's kind of "free money" for me.
Also to connect a MacBook HDD externally, you would have to get an enclosure, like this (http://www.amazon.com/Acomdata-Tango-FireWire400-Drive-Enclosure/dp/B001Y15JPA) one. It has both FireWire and USB, so you can boot off of it. PowerPC Macs, such as your iBook could only boot off of FireWire.

SLC BB. Total = 1. Sad really, I thought I would have company besides the homeless. It's ok though, I shared some of my breakfast burrito I had from McDee's.
Not bad at all. Hopefully it stays small like that until I can get there. I wonder how many they have. Keep the updates on the line coming.

Wow, this is quite professional-looking. It's simple, classy, and pretty. Others may not like the whole click to enter thing, and I usually don't, but you did a good job.
My only suggestion would be to utilize that empty space on the sides by putting the menu there instead of up top. Maybe even make it scroll down with you with some CSS.
Overall, nice. This looks personal, yet welcoming. Most websites don't accomplish this.
iWeb, huh? Can you get rid of the apple logo at the bottom? :)

I am interested in purchasing the iWork suite, in particular for Pages, however I have a query and would be very grateful if anybody could provide assistance. I know Pages supports the import and export of Word documents but am curious as to how well implemented this function is? Exporting accurate, error free word documents which may be viewed in perfect working order by users of Office for Mac and Windows would be a necessity and I'd like to know how well Pages does this job?
Thank you for your time.
My exports appear fine, but I have not tried exporting anything containing heavy formatting, images, etc, just standard multi-page essays with minimal frills.

Sounds like you should be looking at an iMac.
As stated before, I want and need the expansion of the Mac Pro.
My own reason for getting my Mac Pro (2008 Octo Core) was that I intend the keep the computer for 3 - 5 years. Now that I'm just starting my 3rd year I'm confident that I can hit the 5 year mark. My personal feelings are that Mac Pros are for long-term ownership. At least for us small businesses. I know some big corps swap them out every couple of years.
iMacs are a better value for the computing power, but I don't believe they are suitable for long-term ownership. I don't actually think they are hard to expand, if you don't mind a stack of FW 800 HDDs.
Photo editing doesn't actually require a fantastic video card. It just needs to display accurate colour. More expensive cards are for gaming and movies, where things are moving at a rapid rate. If you don't do those things, then I don't believe you need to worry about upgrading the video card.
Memory is another matter.
Mac Pros support more, except for perhaps a small overlap between the low-end MP and high-end iMac (don't know that for sure, but it wouldn't surprise me). Time moves on, applications demand more RAM. I know that my MP still has lots and lots of expansion left in that department. Incidentally, giving your OS, Applications, etc enough RAM is the single most effective way to speed up your workflow. The moment you start writing to virtual memory you are start bogging down.
One thing to keep in mind is that for Mac Pros, you get a RAM slot per processor. So, all other things being equal (same type of architecture in the MP) an 8 core MP can handle more RAM than a 6 core, and a 4 core can handle the least. Do some research on your RAM needs (current and future) before jumping on an 8 core machine just for the RAM ceiling. You very likely will never need that much. But... there it is.
A Mac Pro is also more easily fixed, I believe. Something to consider if you are thinking long-term.
Apple promised something called Grand Central Dispatch in 2010 or yet to be delivered. Check it out on the Apple site. It promised to make it easier for application developers to multi-thread their programs. Photo editing suites are not really taking advantage of this, yet. But if they ever do an older multi-cored machine should stay current for a few more years.
My thinking is: If you want to get a really good machine now, and think you'll be getting another one in a 1-3 years then go iMac. When you buy peripherals for it, make sure that they will also work on a Mac Pro, so you can upgrade easily.
If you want a machine for 3-5 years, then think Mac Pro. More $$ up front, but I think you will save money over the 5 years.
Just some more grist for your mill.
everything here is, imho, of course....

Thanks. My Photoshop files are usually under 100Mb. I use Carrara for 3D work, which is 64-bit and works well with the multiple cores. Planning to switch to modo someday.
I guess I'll go for the 24Gb (4Gb x 6) and see how things work. I could do 8Gb x 3 to give me more flexibility, but the price difference is significant.
Follow-up question: OWC or TransIntl? I've been very happy with OWC in the past, but TransIntl is 15% cheaper and gets good reviews in this forum.

I still can't believe you lot in the USA have gone for yet another incompatible-with-the-rest-of-the-world frequency for your 3G network meaning that anyone coming to the USA won't be able to use your 3G network and your 3G iPhones will be about as useful as a one legged dog outside the USA.
It's interesting that the T-Mobile guy thinks that the prime use for 3G in the USA will be email and other user generated content and not music though. Personally the last thing I want is content rich email on my mobile phone.
Well, our "lot" didn't have much choice in the matter. North Americans didn't choose a different frequency spectrum for their mobile communications out of "spite" or just to be different. We couldn't use 900 or 1800 Mhz because it was already in use by services that could not be moved. Likewise for the frequencies used for 3G there was no choice there either. Why it is that people automatically assume that people in North American do things just for spite is beyond me.

The drivers need to be updated to Universal or Intel. It won't work as it stands. Check with the manufacturer to see if they have Intel versions of the drivers that don't rely on Rosetta.
Also, have you tried setting it up with a Generic driver?

The Ipad 2 and very recently IMac have just release.
I'm reading the buyer's guide page here and it said don't buy the Macbook for now because there will be an update soon.
I do understand just like Iphone, Apple always release a new hardware with the same price of old lower spec hardware.
But I'm in need of the Macbook for an Iphone app development and I want to see wheter I just get the Macbook air now or wait for the white Macbook with higher spec at the same price.
What do you guys think?
