I think he does that in just about every keynote. Still a nice thing to do though :)
He drives them like slaves the rest of the time - he needs to me nice every once and a while. :D

I wonder how these companies got access to Apple's database. Why doesn't Apple keep better watch on it? And couldn't Apple just find out who's been accessing the database, and not allow connections from that source anymore? This all seems shady to me.
Most likely they didn't, and there is no DB breach. Numerous foreign carriers will unlock iPhones they sell to comply with local laws or to please their customers. They are probably going through one or more legit foreign carriers.

Someone in a nearby lab threw out their Power Mac 7200/90 because they were tired of it. Apparently it runs, don't know what OS is on it, I'll fire it up and check it out next week, but if anyone's in the Montreal area and you're interested in it, it's all yours. I'll keep it for a couple of weeks, then I'll be the one trashing it.

AAPL up 3% aftermarket.
I think that was pre-announcement. I read where trading was halted until 4:50 EDT. Still have 7 minutes to see if the "soft" iPad numbers cause the weak hands to sell.
I'm guessing that Apple will drop about 3% from the 4PM close with people focusing on the iPad numbers.
Guess I was completely wrong.

Any ideas how to get this rate up?
(5 other 2.4GHZ networks neighbours.)
i, too live in an area with lots of other networks around, causing wireless interference (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1365?viewlocale=en_US) for my network.
my solution (and recommendation to you) was to hardwire my TVs to my TC using powerline adapters (http://www.powerlineethernetadapter.com/netgear-powerline-adapter).
in fact, i have all my gear hardwired except my mobile devices.

I'd just get the 24GB. Even that should be way more than you need, unless you are running several VMs as well as photoshop, etc. But you certainly wouldn't notice any adverse effects from 32GB if that's what you wanted to know.

Just to let people know that the event in SF is getting some play in France as well. From Le Figaro, the daily images section is about Apple.

Also, there was a pretty long article (http://www.lefigaro.fr/medias/20060913.FIG000000206_apres_la_musique_l_ipod_s_attaque_au_cinema.html), for those who care to read it in French.

I've had a similar problem with different types of symptoms.
Generally, if a CD inserted into the drive doesn't mount, then the eject button doesn't work. Login in and out or a restart either mounts the CD or I can use the eject button held down at start-up to open the drive. (Does the eject button work OK with disks that mount?)
Some CDs won't mount because they have non-standard tinting on the disc or they are scratched in the wrong place. In some cases the OS reports that the CD is unreadable.
My question to you is did the optical drive play up soon after you got the machine or has it been normal for a while then played-up?
I don't think that the device IDs are a problem as they are on different ATA buses, but I'm no expert on ATA.

Just a couple of thoughts (background... I shoot a 5DII, have 750GB of images, and have a MacPro with 6.5TB of internal storage + external no-caddy drive bays for backups).
Don't buy 350/500GB drives. They're older technology, and they're no longer the most cost effective in terms of GB/$.
The sweet spot for GB/$ is in the larger disks - 1TB to 2TB - and these disks will also be faster, as the data is packed tighter on the disk surface. You'll read more bits off the platter for every disk revolution.
Make sure you have a good backup strategy in place - and design that from the very beginning. Back up to external drives and try and keep a copy offsite. I also use an internal partition as a TimeMachine disk - just for my boot drive.
Edit. Oh yes... one more thing. RAID IS NOT A BACKUP... and don't trust anyone who tells you it is. RAID will ONLY protect you against disk crashes, NOT against accidental deletion, theft, water damage, electrical glitches, virus action, fire, accidental damage which together are more likely than a disk crash. To be safe, you need three copies of data, one of which should be in a separate location.
Another HDD space junkie! :D I will buy 1 or 2 TB drives for the Mac Pro. However, what if I buy 1 TB drives and they puke before I fill them up? I am not being a smart @@S, just asking a legitimate question, as that scenario is my only concern. Also, thanks for clarifying that RAID is not for backup. my good friend uses RAID to backup, but he never writes to his drives, only reads. They are for storing tons of movies and games. Off-site storage is a big deal with photographers and I understand the benefits, but I never would have added 1+1. LOL
I am still thinking about my backup plan, but I have plenty of options thanks to the photographer community! As I stated in my last reply, I will clear my mind this weekend and in all likelihood, order a new Mac Pro 8 core soon.

Vylen, I think you're right about the bad cable.
I've systematically connected my one working DP/miniDP cable to this new monitor, and alone, it starts up.
I've tried the same thing with the DVI cable that I know works, and same thing, this monitor starts up fine.
So I know all three monitors are working. I'm going to try to get a different cable (DP/mini-DP) and will see if all three work together.
I'll report back. In the meantime, thanks for the advice.

Evidently those that just pick up the iPad and just start playing haven't played far enough. That works but for real newbies there is hope.
Once you get yours launch Safari. In the bookmarks drop down you will find the iPad manual. Every individual item, program, setting or what ever is expalined. At least it is in my iPad1, can't imagine they would take it out. You will of course have to be connected to the internet.
Enjoy your iPad, you will never let yourself be without it.

i dont think there will be near the hype of last year, looking at the posts for dallas on the last iphone launch there were tons of posts.
Yeah I agree, I'm thinking about a drive by at 4 or 5 am and maybe being in line by around 5:30 or 6.

This has NOTHING to do with being out of contract. Please stop spreading this myth.
When you buy an iPhone you buy it WITH a two year contract. Whether you use it or other networks or not has nothing to do with ATT getting their subsidy money.
That's why I'm saying that they're going to soon be offering official unlocks for AT&T iPhones. They already offer them for ANY GSM phone that they sell once a subsidy contract has ended. At that point, you have paid them more than the full amount of the phone's value and you actually own the phone. They should offer an unlock for iPhones that are out of contract, just like they do for any other GSM phone they offer.

Reach and New Vegas will probably tide me over until well into next spring. Those 2 games will be a great 1-2 combo for me. Tons of action and multiplayer with Reach, and when I need a break from that, a good slow paced RPG with NV.
I was seriously disappointed with the Reach beta at the time. There were lots of things in it that I didn't like or agree with in how it played. But in their subsequent BWU's and podcasts, Bungie have announced that many of the things that many people had issue with were in fact wrong/broken, and have been fixed for GM. So, that is great. Add to that all of the news that has come out recently, and in the coming weeks, and this game is shaping up to be right in my wheel-house.
Same goes for New Vegas. I played the absolute crap out of FO3, so when I heard that NV was going to be mostly the same game, just with new character and story, I was super hyped. I played Oblivion a bit, but never got into it, but for some reason FO3 just connected with me. So hearing that NV would be sticking with the same engine and general gameplay mechanics is great. Hopefully NV has a ton of DLC to go with it, like FO3 did.

I don't think this is the way to get music recommended. You really want to trawl through my collection of 14,000 songs? On top of that, other user's libraries as well?!
Either you have too much free time, or you'll realize how pointless this is.
I will just mention artists who I'd recommend - John Mayer, Newton Faulkner, Damien Rice (if you like acoustic), Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert (instrumental rock), Deadmau5, The Prodigy (electro/dance), Pete Rock, CL Smooth, LL Cool J, Jedi Mind Tricks (Hip-hop/Rap), and some Ministry of Sound Chilled albums if you wanna relax.

So just partition in Windows, format one partition in NTFS, leave the other one as unallocated space and from OSX format this unallocated free space in HFS.
You can start with OS X or Windows, either one. Just remember, the first partition will be faster, as it's the outer tracks on the drives. So I'd use that where performance is more critical (there's a performance hit using the inner tracks, so be aware of this as well).
What is the most accurate temp reading software out for the Mac anywhere? Like RealTemp on the PC gives very accurate reads.
iStat was recommended to me on these forums, though I don't have much confidence in it.
I stopped using a Mac back in but iStat was good back then. Not certain if this is the case, but Apple still uses thermal sensors, and would presume that it's still accurate (under the impression it reads these rather than the CPU diodes).
As lazy as I am think I am going to remount. However the way the temperature rises does not feel like it's the CPU making poor contact.
It's like for 3 minutes during prime95 test the CPU temp difference will be in 5-6 degree range, then very slowly the CPU A starts climbing up.
Might be worth it.

You can only use 2.5" S-ATA HDDs, the biggest is currently a 1TB or 1.5TB one. 2TB HDDs are usually desktop HDDs and are 3.5" in size.
That's a good start, thank you. Saves me banging my head against a wall looking for larger. I understand that the physical height of the drive is quite important too, any ideas?
