http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-POWERMAC-G5-2-3-Ghz-2GB-RAM-23-Display_W0QQitemZ5243675401QQcategoryZ4607QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I was browsing eBay ( looking for apple posters and stuff actually :o ) and come accross this auction. For anyone after a PowerMac for �961 thats pretty astonishing. It looks legit but there are a few things that could be a put off - the person selling is a new user (hmm ok we all have to start somewhere eh?) and the person is also asking for Bank Transfer only. Reasonable i guess (most other methods involve cost to buyer or seller) as long as the seller does not say 'Western Union' then it seems to be a pretty good deal.
However my spider sense is tingling, saying that it could be yet another Scam. It's unbelievable how many scams ive run into on eBay when i started looking for Apple products - they are cat-nip to scammers lol.
EDIT: lol nothing to do with this mac deal as such, but I was pretty supprised to find someone trying to sell a DVD-R with Tiger and Office 2004 on it for �26. Its quite funny.

I was a freshman in high school. I was just getting off the bus in the morning when i heard these exact words on the radio "...oh my god! A second plane has just hit the second world trade center building"
i kinda walked on into class in shock until 1st period started. The teacher had the tv on when we came in. We watched the first and the second towers fall. We watched the people running from the cloud of dust and debris be overtaken by it. Thats about all we did that day.
I didn't know anyone from New York so i wasn't personally affected. I offer my condolences to those of you who did lose someone.

That seems like a really cool program, especially if you are looking to create a gif from your favourite TV show, or something.
What are you wanting to do with the program, though? Because you could always pause the movie or video you are trying to cap from and press control+shift+4, this brings up a box which makes a cap of only the parts of the image that are selected, and conveniently saves it to your desktop.
I understand if you are trying something a little more complex, though, that this would be a tedious and inappropriate way of going about it. :)
thank you for your advice.

Portal 2 on my 2010 with 5870 plays at 2560x1440 perfectly smoothly on the default graphics which, while not the highest in terms of AA, are very good indeed.
I also noticed that Portal 2 doesn't cause the fans to spin up as much as the old Portal did.

NightStorm, glad to see another fellow MacRumor member in my neck of the woods.
Likewise; there are a few of us on here, but not nearly enough. This release date is perfect for me as I had planned on taking the 26th off anyways since I have some extra vacation days to use before the end of the year. Figure I might as well make the trip up to the store and see what it's like for a product launch. :)

Many TVs won't display sound unless there is something connected to the associated video input as well. If you're using the red/white RCA jacks, there's most likely a yellow RCA jack or an S-Video jack "clustered" with them. Stick a cable into those, then select the correct source input on the TV (definitely not HDMI, as that transfers it's own sound -- look for "COMPONENT", "AUX", or just "INPUT", usually.

You could simply open yourself an iTunes UK account for free.
Use a random UK address, such as a UK Apple Store (http://www.apple.com/uk/retail/storelist/).
>> Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534)
In any case... (click the following for large 600x600 version)

I was a freshmen in college and getting ready to go to class. I remember watching tv and hearing about the first building being hit. Then they went to commercial and came back and said a second plane had crashed into the other building.
Today is my sisters birthday and she and my dad were out hiking that day and didn't know about what happened until they got back.

Guys - before you go crazy, its not going to work. Even if you strip DRM you still can't install it on non JB ipads. In order to install the app and have it working you still need to modify mobileframe work.

All these crazy profits quarter after quarter, and they can't lower the prices...
Unreal greed.
Apple isn't a charity. They only have profits because they don't lower the prices.

What are you using to connect the headset with?
Music files are stereo, and have only 2 channels. I do not know why you'd want to output in simulated surround sound, you'd lose audio resolution.

What I find interesting is how Arn comes so much later, considering he basically started the site.
I think his handle is relatively new, though he has been present from the Beginning (capitalization for special effect).

I'm pretty sure Jobsy hasn't done a "One More Thing" (which is annoying, cos even ppl who've noticed this still hope for them) since they did an event actually called "One More Thing" about 2 years ago. Last Macworld's keynote was just about the AppleTV (which we'd heard about 3 months previous as the iTV) and of course the iPhone, with no OMT whatsoever.
I think they scrapped it because internet hype and Thinksecret's rumour success rate meant that the "One More Thing" was usually leaked beforehand anyways, so when they did it, it was less of a nice surprise and more of a relief that the rumour sites hadn't gotten our hopes up about nothing.

If only Apple would just tell us. If the Iphone 5 doesn't get a bigger screen I am going to shop around. It pains me, but the phone is too small for me at its current size. I want a slightly bigger screen.
I'd rather buy Apple, but HTC is sneaking up quickly.
