This entire thread breaks the NDA developers agree to when paying their membership. It's pathetic that some developers would do this just so they can feel cool by leaking the info. If you want access to the seeds or up-to-date info then pay the $500 (minimum) like the honest developers have to :mad:

People with PCs must not leave their houses much...I've been to coffee shops and airports all over, and it seems about half of the laptops I see are Apple.

Actually I've changed my mind - I think it's a crap idea! Mind you Apple will probably turn it into a killer application and they'll turn my mind back again - they usually do!

Last time I read the phrase "written from the ground up" was in a press release for Office 2011. Which is why Word 2011 and Excel 2011 are fast, 64 bit, Cocoa apps with no dialogues that look just like the ones in Office 2004.
iMovie makes simple editing really quick. FCPX looks like it will do the same for complex work. It looks awesome, even if it bears no visual similarity with FCP7, what with it actually being written from the ground up.

I believe actually that we're about to see not a replacement for the existing iPod but more of an iPod Pro. They won't call it that but it will the newest in the lineup, with the current 5.5G iPod continuing selling.
I see Apple continuing selling the current version for $249 and $349 and then offering this bigger brother for $449 and would come with the screen the full length of the iPod as we have seen countless mockups. Would it have more than an 80GB drive? Possibly. But I think we'll just see one model with the bigger screen and it might have a bigger hard drive.
I would bet, though, that Apple does not get rid of what's been working for them. The 5.5G is safe... for now.
Agreeed.
Here is the line-up
iPod schuffle <-- should read Shuffle (thanks Chundles -- see 3 posts down...)
iPod nano
iPod
iPod X (X being a real cool marketing name)
the iPod X will be the 'True Video iPod'

I'm getting the same whine/slight vibration from my macbook since updating. I have a few questions.
1. How do I downgrade this update? If I can't downgrade, will a clean install of os x do the trick?
2. What temp. should my macbook be running?
3. Does anyone have a link to a temp. app/widget?
I have exactly the same ******* problem!
Damn ...
The last firmware update cured my rsd and made it run really cool - everything was perfect!!!!
NOW - it's HOT again AND i have a strange "WHINE" sound - just like you!
Grrrrrr ...
I think i read somewhere that you can't downgrade!!!!
:eek:

The iTunes Music Store currently doesn't offer any full-length movies for purchase/download, with minor exceptions to some full-length content available via ShowTime.
I thought iTunes had HSM and Fallen as movies. Maybe they don't count but, they are, kind of.

hmmm never thought of it that way...I still disagree because while my car doesn't get scratches that often from driving, driving and small impacts from stones is very different than getting rubbed on a desk in a bag with keys, etc etc. I would not put a small, painted car part in my bag or on my desk without some sort of protection. Would you? Do you know a lot about clear coats? I'd like to hear more (being serious)
I don't know more about clear coats besides my personal experience with differing qualities of such on motorcycles and cars. A thick clear coat is quite resilient.
On the other hand, my Macbook aluminum unibody had the underside scratched a lot from simply rubbing in my bag and on my desk. Bare aluminum is hardly scratch resistant, at least not more than a clear coat.
And the beauty of the proper clear coat : You can always apply wax to it or a compound which will make it look brand new. Or you can reclear it. Bare aluminum ? Good luck.

The MacBook and MacBook Pro EFI firmware updates (http://www.macrumors.com/2009/12/08/apple-releases-airport-software-update-firmware-updates-addressing-superdrive-noise/) were issued in December 2009 as part of package to address noise from the optical drive, but were altered at some point after their initial release to also introduce support for a maximum of 8 GB of RAM for users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
Consequently, OWC recommends that users of Late 2008 MacBooks and MacBook Pros interested in upgrading to 8 GB of RAM check System Profiler on their machine to determine whether they are running the latest Boot ROM versions of MBP51.007E.B05 (MacBook Pro) or MB51.007D.B03 (MacBook), and if not, re-download the EFI firmware update and apply it to their machines.
A couple of issues remain unanswered:
* A user has reported on the blog that his MBP5,1 running Leopard has accepted 8GB of memory.
* Updating with the old version of the MBP EFI Updater 1.8 will already result in the aforementioned Boot ROM version numbers, thus preventing the use of the revised EFI Updater.

[QUOTE=zephonic;12494107]No. Hellhammer is right. The T3500 is comparable to the base-spec single-CPU MacPro. Same CPU, same RAM, just a different graphics card.
"Same CPU, same RAM" ignores all of the other things that make a computer valuable. Don't forget the case, the ease of component changes, the power supply, the reliability, and the amount of overbuilding (or underbuilding). Oh, and there's also that "OS" thing.
Just matching CPU speeds is like comparing Fords and Porsches based on horsepower ratings. If a person who wants a fast car can't see the value in a Porsche then by all means get a Ford.

When android phones are literally being given away, what is the surprise with the 'surge'? One system is popular because people want it, but the other will eventually surpass it because its an open system on many different phone platforms that are often included for "free".
Kind of like Microsoft and Apple in the 80s, and we all saw how that turned out. If Apple should learn anything from history, they better start lowering the prices of iPhones and include some features that Android has built in. Ahem, voice texting...ahem.
I, for one, am very concerned.

nVidia claims 142W for a Quadro 4000, and PNY for example, has it at 152W. Either way, this is less power than some gaming cards pull, and is why it's possible to use 2x of them in a MP.
BTW, it's ~110W or so more under full load for a pair of 5770's than a pair of Quadro 4000's. :eek: :D
Works good as a space heater hear in the Great White North eh! ;)

I suppose I'm being too cynical, but part of me suspects that AT&T has only created this app to reduce the amount of time their reps spend listening to complaints about dropped calls. I know I've spent a lot of time on the phone with them over the last year. While they're always very cordial and say things like they are "sending out crews to look at towers", etc, nothing changes. In fact, where I live (about an hour south of NYC) things have gotten far worse - not better.

I think that's a poor example because Konfabulator was already around and Apple essentially just took that idea and made it part of the OS. Desk Accessories which were part of the original Mac, released in 1984, were similar to widgets. So I don't see where revolution comes to mind. They've evolved, but it's not a revolutionary idea.

3:00 at the marked horseshoe lounge sounds great to me. I think I can make that any day next week. Like vniow, it would help if people knew what day(s) they'll likely participate in this. I'll probably only spend part of one day checking out the Exhibit Hall, and I can make that any of the days...I just need to know which one to choose! :)
I'm not heading to MacWorld myself, but FWIW I set up a Doodle poll to hopefully help those who won't be there everyday to figure out when it would be best to drop by.

Hopefully you folks can get a good turnout... have fun!

This entire scenario is playing out like Windows / MacOS part 2 -- the vertically integrated MacOS (hardware + OS coming from same source) is beaten into obscurity by the OS that is available on a multitude of devices from many different manufacturers.
Every percentage point that Android ticks higher -- every million more Android customers that sign on due to BOGOs and heavily subsidized phones -- makes their customer base the more enticing one to develop for.
This type of competition won't keep Apple "honest and innovative" -- it'll just lead to what we saw before in the 80s and 90s: top software going to the competing platform with Apple grabbing at scraps.
I agree 100% save for the "honest" Apple part. I know what you meant though.
You are absolutely right IMHO. it will take some time to topple over the behemoth that Apple's App Store is but I doubt it will remain the best for years to come. Any developer wanting to make money will need to code for both platforms and $$$$ doesn't lie or fall into hype or hysteria.
If an app is good . . . and available on both platforms the devo will make BREAD on the Android side. . . . fragmentation or not.

I do not care how hot it gets as long as my Mac goes to sleep when I close it!!!
:)
Yep, that fixed that issue on my MBP, too. I can now close the lid and it goes to sleep. Amazing!
The apple store had ordered me a new top case, motherboard, and sleep sensor to try and fix this. I guess they can send all that back. :)

What will the effect of carbon fiber be on the environment vs aluminum?
Carbon Fiber would be a nightmare for Apples Environmental Check-list. From what I've read:
Once the Carbon Fiber clothes are soaked or saturated with resin, it's basically non-biodegradable. But it seems like the auto industry is looking into a way to actually recycle this stuff.... taking old carbon fiber pieces like from planes and other crafts that utilize Carbon Fiber... and shredding them into reusable material.
Here's some good info:
"Ten years ago, carbon fiber cost $150 a pound. Now, the price is around $10 a pound. Steel, on the other hand, costs less than a dollar per pound. Many analysts say that for carbon fiber to make it into widespread use in cars, the price will have to drop to about $5 per pound."
