Well, that was my point...
It's equivalent to a 2 year old card. If you buy a top end desktop card today, it will last you 2 more years for sure, but the iMac has a 2 year old card already.
It's not a big deal to me because I know Diablo 3 will screen on a 6970M and there isn't really that much worth getting excited about. Worst thing is that in 2 years, you'll have to run at 2x AA instead of 8x AA or turn down the resolution.
With a Top Moblity Card such as the 6970m I have no fear that i will be able to run Witcher 2, Skyrim, MassEffect3, or any other game that will be released in the next 1,5 years at at least High and 1080p...with no AA of course.
I dont understand why one would waste GPU power with AA; max. AA i use is 2x.

That is my recommendation.
I agree wholeheartedly. Additionally, I user Finder labels to highlight certain fonts within User/Library/Fonts -- some of the 'free' fonts I have are only licensed for specific or personal use, so I tag them with a Finder label in order to quickly check whether a font I've used in a pro job requires an upgrade to a pro license.
Every font management application I've used in 17 years of professional Mac use has interfered with my workflow to a degree that more than offsets any benefit it's provided.
Cheers!

Wow, you are such a great help. Thank you so much...
Seriously though, why even bother helping if you have nothing to contribute?
I am contributing. If you delete files without knowing what they are, you could be deleting files needed by Mac OS X or by other apps. Since there's no need to delete them, it's a wise recommendation that you don't. If you want to delete them, go ahead. You asked if it was safe to delete them. I answered your question. My answer is "if you don't know what they are, it's not safe to delete them."
If you don't want answers, don't ask questions.

Tons of other videos on youtube too. AMOLED as a technology has inferior color reproduction and what are, to many, over-saturated colors.
The comparative things like sharpness, contrast, etc. will have to wait for hands-on comparisons.

I can do everything I want to from my ipad except for be notified when I get texts and respond to those texts. I know the jailbreak for the iPad 2 isn't out yet so I am waiting on that anyway, but is there a jailbroken app that allows me to forward texts from my phone and respond with my iPad. I'm using BiteSMS on my phone if that makes a difference.

It was originally 250 and it was one that was up for the 100 dollar rebate. When i ordered it the website said that it was on back order adn that it would probably take 6 weeks to get here, which did not bother me seeing as i did not need it right away.
I just called them and they said it was discontinued and that they no longer carried it. Meaning that i ordered a printer 5 weeks ago that in the end would never get here. I am peeved because when i ordered the printer it was not discontinued. And while there are some other printers availible they are not the ones that i want!! I want the one i ordered 5 weeks ago.
Apple should at least honor the orders that were mad for that printer before it was discontinued!!Seems to me that the reason the printer was originally on backorder was that it HAD been discontinued (by the manufacturer), but Apple didn't know that yet... all they knew was that they were out of stock and that the product was backordered for that reason. As soon as they found out that no more printers would be available, they e-mailed everyone who had the printer on backorder and let them (and you) know that it would not be available.
Tough break, but you can't expect Apple to conjure a printer for you out of thin air. Perhaps they will give you a comparable rebate on a similar printer, but they're under no obligation to.

Either way Apple is going strong and the potential for iPhone (and Apple gadgets) and Mac OS X to move forward are huge.
Yeah, Apple's gadgets. What about... oh, I don't know... their COMPUTERS?
Specifically the Mac Pro and Mac Mini. So much potential there.

Hi. This is my first post here. I've been through most of the forum entries and googled around but didn't seem to find an answer to my specific question. So here goes:
I've had my MBpro 13" since the summer of 2009. I know my way around a PC but Mac is a new experience to me but I wanted to try it out to see what all the fuzz was about.
Sometime last summer my Mac started to freeze when I opened it up after sleep mode or brought it out of stand by mode (I hardly ever turn it off but the problem is the same after a fresh startup). It did not matter what application I was using, Mail, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, iTunes, Finder - whatever application the result would be the same. The beach ball would just keep spinning and spinning and everything would be locked down for about a minute or two. In the beginning of such a period I could navigate to another window or the desktop and click something but after about 10 seconds I couldn't do that either. After a minute or two everything would be back to normal.
Originally I thought it was Mail that was causing the problem because I resolved it by deleting the plist. But after getting all of my mails back into the inbox and getting 2-3 feeds from various sites the problem was back. Deleting the plist and not getting the feeds helped for a while - 3-4 months or so and then the beach ball-problem came back. This time I stopped using Mail for a while to see if this was the problem. It wasn't and in the end I reinstalled the OS.
Some months later everything started all over - only this time it was worse. Grey screen prevented me from doing anything and after a hard reset I couldn't even access the desktop. I tried everything - pressing D or T during startup, pressing Option-command-p-r, but nothing helped.
Another reinstall solved the problem for a while. And after that I've been running a repair disk permissions regularly. Somehow it always found something to repair - this struck me as odd but I thought, as long as it's not freezing I'm good. Well - now it's freezing again and it started after I installed 10.6.7. I've unticked the harddisk sleep-thingy and removed Firefox but the beach ball apparently doesn't care if I use Apple-software or not. Last freeze was in Safari. The time before that was in iTunes.
ANY help would be much appreciated. Could my hdd be corrupt? Why didn't I have a problem the first year then?

Talk to Apple. This looks like the infamous Nvidia 8600M issue and may still be covered under Apple's replacement scheme (I actually got a brand new MBP out of them about 6 months out of warranty).
Make an appointment at your local genius bar and see what they say.
The 8600M only appeared in the Macbook Pro and I believe only the 08 model. The OP says his computer is a Macbook and from early 2007 so will be using the Intel 950 integrated graphics.

I have iphone 4 white and my front is little bit yellowish or lemonish compared to back plate.
Do they still make it this way or did they correct it and it matches the white rim of backplate(real white color)?

It could mean that, or it could mean they just haven't updated the graphite versions of the buttons/loading bars/etc yet. I would love to see them offer more color options, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being just blue and graphite again. :o
I hope they offer more color options, especially for the sidebar icons. I'm not loving the iTunes 10 UI.

I also have a pair. They're a perfect complement to my iPhone when used with the headset.
About the bass response, I've found that getting a great, punchy, and tight kick sound depends mainly on the fitting of the earbuds. Achieving an air-tight seal is critical for this.
All in all a great pair of earbuds!

^This guy has no idea what he's talking about. I've purchased two new batteries for my hp laptop and everytime I've installed Windows 7, I then get an error saying I need to replace my battery and then when I go back on Vista it gives me only like 30 minutes of battery life. So yes Windows 7 does kill batteries and I've noticed I only get an hour with Windows 7 on my mbp 2011 and that's with brightness lowered and typing on here/sitting there doing nothing. I installed Windows 7 only because I need to use Microsoft 2007 for my class, but other than that I will not be using it.
P.S. It's because Windows 7 uses a lot of power just to run, so it overheats causing your battery to overheat and die.

Thanks for the replies people.
I have to disagree with the price. Here in Australia the 32gb iPhone retails for $999AU. You can check the Apple Australia site for that.
So $650AU is a good price, here.
Secondly, I'm still not sure. Why would he accept to meet my friend as an option? If he truly wanted to scam me he would have brushed the idea off straight away and said no, just send it back. But he didn't?
Also my friend would be going with her boyfriend and he doesn't know it's a girl so those factors make his reply irrelevant.
I do also know his identity. If it went bad, I could likely charge him with fraud or take some other legal matter surely.
The problem with my friend is both her and this sellers communication suck. If they failed to meet on the day, then it would waste a lot of time.
