Im thinking the local PCworld, Comet or Currys might be a better bet with everyone planning on going to the retail stores?
All depends on who has stock and how much stock they have?
Im after the 16 or 32GB 3G

1. Apple officially announces that Boot Camp will be part of Leopard.
2. VMWare announces their product for OS X.
3. Microsoft kills VPC for Mac as it becomes pointless and sort of redundant.
After all, if they can sell the regular version of Windows to intel Mac users, why bother wasting money on something other companies are doing (VMWare and Parallels).
You want Windows on your Mac, use Boot Camp/buy VMWare or Parallels and then buy Windows like everyone else. No extra R&D funds/time required to enter the "Mac market", which thanks to Boot Camp is "all intel Mac users".
It's a simple business decision.
Yeah, this joke has been around forever. It originally was used when Windows 95 first came out. It isn't technically valid for NT, 2000, XP, or Vista. Those are just 32-bit (or 64-bit) OSes by a 2 bit company. :-D
Well, how about "Windows Vista: a 64-bit OS that can almost emulate a 32 bit shell running on a 16 bit extension of an 8 bit OS designed for a 4 bit CPU, made by a 2 bit company that can't stand one bit of competition."? ;-)

Maybe katie ta achoo's videos will grace Steve's next MWSF keynote as he demonstrated the ease of the next version of iMovie HD. :)

I purchased a 2010 8-core Mac Pro last year. It still has the original 6Gb of RAM, which I want to upgrade now.
OWC's performance tests (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=/Benchmarks/CS5BenchmarkPage-MacProNehalem.html) show a drastic improvement with 12Gb, and rather minimal boost after that. But this is one test and does not necessarily reflect real life.
I do mostly Photoshop work. Some 3D modeling and rendering, and some video editing (Final Cut Express, After Effect).
I'm leaning towards getting 24Gb (4Gb x 6) or 32Gb (4Gb x 8). How much does installing RAM in 3's affect the Macs in real life?

I remember an AD about a Kid and His Father trying to install a game on their PC after trying to install the game and failing the Kid says to his Father I am going to install it next door they have a Mac I dont remeber when I heard that at but I liked it.
I think that movie is called dinosaurs. At least I think that is what the game/software was about.

Okay, here is an update:
I spliced wires to match the mac motherboard connector, and the addition of an 24V adaptor to power the 25V line for the Apple ADC video. see an image of the FrankenPSU here (http://www.systemdisc.com/workarea.jpg)
I flipped on the power strip switch, powering the PS (pin 14 shorted) and the ac adaptor. The fan on the CPU spins, and a motherboard light powers on. The hard disk, however, will not start up with the motherboard connected. Also there is no video output.
I know my voltages for each connector pin are correct, but I have not checked current or paid any attention to rails. I don't know which Mac pin needs an independent +3.3V, for example, and which ATX wires provides it.
I wish I could post on xlr8yourmac, but the forums are closed to new users for some reason.

If it opens in Parallels, then install the free and open-source PDFCreator tool over there, and capture what you want by printing to the virtual printer the PDFCreator tool installs. You can then do whatever you wish with the PDF files thus generated.
And that will keep the interactive navigation? Like larkost said, PDF just isn't suitable for what Wiggum wants to do...
Why do you need to change the HTML, Wiggum?

luckily not all rap/hip hop (especially the non US ones) gives this sense of "i'm above the rest" .. since they are nowhere as good as the funny,more language acrobatic ones IMHO
but i'm 22 and not 15 and didn't grew up in the gettho or something
(thankfully my younger brother(13) jumped straight to rammstein ;) )
Sorry about late reply, crazy hours at work.
It shows that your only 22! language acrobatic funny rappers have more lyrics than the original hard core rappers?? what?
1) You better check out Eric B. & Rakim!! Hmmm, lets start off with Dont Sweat The Technics (check the video out, you'll notice another star from the fugees from that video, He's solo now & the most respected of that dead group). Then you MUST MUST MUST check out "Let The Rhythm Hit'Em" UNTIL you've listened to this track or even Juice (Know The Ledge) then you have no clue what your talking about. "Follow The Leader" and Soo much more. More recent is "New York" lyrically on par with Let The Rhythm Hit'Em; from a time when artists actually could freestyle hard lyrically challenging rhymes from scratch, not pen them over weeks, months & record them before performing or mix & match rhymes from their various prerecorded rhymes like every artist does now. Hmm others from that era that weren't comedy rap? Queen Latifah "I order you to dance for me"! Pete Rock & CL Smooth, although not officially RAP - they pretty much ushered in the era of HipHop (if not amongst the VERY 1st) - check out their famous ballard T.R.O.Y.; again if you dont know what that track is nor the abbreviation - ya betta axe somebody (that last 4 words is from another famous RAP artist, but They Reminisce Over You = TROY). Hmm, whom else? How about EPMD with " The Big Payback" ; this was the best of what they offered IMHO, as their rhyming style was just too slow for me. Now we all cannot forget the surviving KING of RAP .... LL COOL J. The most successive albums and the oldest, surviving RAP artist that started in the game since day of the 1st explosion... actually it was HIM that started the explosion, NOT RUN-DMC; remember My Radio, or how about You Yvette, even more recently Milky Cereal, Mr Goodbar (one of my favorites). Canadian artists that get my respect is DL Incognito & K-OS; both have evolved incredibly well K-OS is in the same light as Outkast as they've always strived to improve and not go the norm (exception K-OS first album was more POP as he was only 16 at the time and didnt know himself yet).
Humourus Rap stars?
The Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff , "Parents Just Dont Understand", "Girls of the World Aint Nuthin But Trouble", then "A Nightmare On My Street" came out and they bombed. however the only time Prince came back (with Jeff) was with "Ring My Bell" (a remix), and my favorite "Summertime". After that he just went broke and Quincy Jones saved his ass mentoring him into acting (yeah he played a fag but no casting would take him until after Fresh Prince of Bel Air - producer Quincy Jones). Is an actor now, he doesnt rate, skills are lost, just a trash talker.
Others have tried, but failed pretty much as 1 hit wonders not even worth mentioning. Why? Because the HipHop Comedy genre wasnt accepted? No, because lyrically after "I think I can beat Mike Tyson" by Prince/Jeff; lyrically nothing was challenging from that genre. It died peacefully. Oops sorry just remembered one more; Biz Markie Dee ... Oh Baby Yooo, Ya Got What NeeeEEeeed, and you say He's just a Freen, and you say he's just a friend, OOOHhh Baabbbieee... well you betta know that one. However, you young yutes/bucks/pecks may like Twista, but Biz Markie Dee is the original KING of Beat Boxn; shizz you probably never heard of Biz. Well Look at Men In Black II, Biz is the big brotha beat boxing when Will Smith first enters the Mail Room to prove to Z of interstella life! ;) [EDIT] And dont even think of putty A Tribe Called Quest in this genre of comedy rap - "el segundo" doesnt count.
Digable Planets was instrumentally beautiful, even though lyrically it wasnt challenging, only the way they spoke was challenging to lyrically copy. "Dial 7", "9th Wonder", and a few others melded retro 60's style, flow, and a unique jazzy sound! But because of the time it debuted, political correctness across USA chastisized their stride. still classic and beautiful.
Blackstarr, Talib Qweli, Common; lyrically poetic & complex artists, NOT comedy artists. The Roots too.
For the past 5 years though, those that make the most involve too much bling or fraud from their roots to hoist their status.
Snoop, incredibly respected since his first album; but historically he didnt come from the ghetto, not even South Central. He was an uptown boy, BUT his originality and style got him were he is now, and he deserves his clout. Eminem is the ONLY artist that writes his lyrics, more so than he freestyles (since his original contract with Dre; remember Dre was the puppy of NWA not the star, but he was more intelligent in the studio!), why? because of his complex style of rhyming. Its more difficult that a Limerick; so difficult its never been done before and no artist can touch him.
Damn Need I go on to school you?!!! :D ;) :cool:

I guess this is good of a thread as any to ask..
I have more than generalist and less than master knowledge of print and video production. I work for a university and have a multimedia development position... I preface with "work for a university" because I have one of those jobs where it is more beneficial to have very broad ranging knowledge of most production technologies (for web, for video, for print) than having very specific knowledge.
i.e. one day I am developing a Flash application, the next I am working in After Effects or Motion, the next day I have Photoshop or Illustrator up. Anyway...
Part of my job is running a multimedia lab which is available to the campus staff, faculty and students to do production work. A mix of Mac Pros and Power Mac G5s with 23" ACDs. My question is two fold:
To video folks: For those of you working with motion graphics, particularly in HD (lets just say 1080p to be safe), do you find the response time on the ACDs to be sufficient for working with HD content? How about full screen HD playback?
Also, I'm considering getting a 17" MBP (soon, I'd like to wait for a refresh but the money isn't coming out of my personal coffers); what is your feeling about it pumping out HD content to a 30" ACD? The ACD would actually be for home use with the MBP. How does it perform pushing HD content?
Thank you kindly!
