The other thing that comes to mind is if you have a boot floppy you can stick that in and boot it from that, rather than the internal HD

That way it's like a lead-in for people who like similar music and want to know more about this particular band.

Yeah, and if it's something really big released, it will be on the mainstream news like CNN, and people at work will come over and say, "Hey, did you see the new (insert new product here) that Apple just released? What do you think?" And you get to suddenly spout expletives :D

I just installed a brand new hard drive into my 2009 mini and I am trying to install Snow Leopard. I don't want any of the files from the old HD. The install of the hd into the mini went fine (or so it appears) but when I try to install SL on the new hard drive it gets stuck at the window which asks which drive I want to install to. I never get an option for a drive so something is wrong. Any ideas?

I really like my OtterBox Defender, as I mentioned in my review above I almost did not switch over to the the Ivyskin Q3. It is thick, it will not work in any of my docking ports but for protection you can't beat it. OtterBox has a new case in the works that my be of interest here. It has not been released yet it is called the Reflex, see the link below. According to the description it has the protection of the Defender with a slim design and a snap off bottom for docking. It sounds very interesting. :)

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?

Do this. Check out OWC or Newegg.
Ok, so lets say I go with 3rd party memory. If I have an unrelated problem with the MBP, would I need to put the original memory back in before taking it in for service?
I'm new to the whole Mac thing. Thanks.

You won't believe this.
It was a bad wireless card.
Using brilliant deductive reasoning I finally thought, "this is either a badly seated Airport card, or just a downright bad card."
After unplugging/replugging the card in numerous times (disconnecting/connecting the little plug each time), just to be sure it was in fact seated well (which I'd done once before last week), I finally opened up my other Mac laptop (which uses the same identical card) and put it into this new iBook.
Damn. Lightening fast. I"M UP.
Just to check, I then plugged in this supposedly broken Airport card into my PowerBook, and sure enough: no signal. The card really is bad.
Why did the iBook work great while in the Apple Store in Cherry Creek? This is what initially had me think that it could not be a hardware problem. Then I realized: perhaps a Mac can get barely pick up a wireless signal even without the Airport card. Either that, or the card kinda/sorta/sometimes would work. And, I'll bet the signal strength in the Apple store was super strong, and got through even a semi-busted airport card.
That's the first time a problem has actually been the darn hardware in all my 14 years of Mac'ing. I will never again discount physical matter as the potential source of the glitch.
Criminy. I think I spend about 30-40 solid hours trying to figure this one out.
Yaaaaahoooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I have to disagree i don't think its too invasive and works very well with the tone of the imagery.... i have seen reels with alot worse choices in music... my own is a prime example... :D
Also you can see that the reel has been cut using the track at certain parts... so changing it would require re-editing the whole sequence.
A reel should be recut once a month if you are doing a bunch of work. But, me being 32 I like it. I know from people I have worked with the DVD would have been taken out and dismissed 15 seconds in by some agency suits. Remember, a reel is to show your work... since this is a graphics reel it should be about the graphics and not so in your face with hip-hop.
If you could find a 'karaoke' version of the song with no lyrics it would help the cause. My $.02
PS.. your motion graphics are sick. Good work!

Okay, for version 3.0, what if you could enter the specs you want (i.e. combo drive, FW800, USB2, 128 MB Vram), and then it would give you the various machines that can be configured that way, with prices.

LABOR has been swept away by strong swings in NSW and Queensland, leaving Australia facing a hung Parliament with both houses to be controlled by independents and a surging Greens party.
Labor and the Coalition each fell short last night of winning the majority 76 seats needed to govern in their own right and last night both sides immediately started wooing the four independents and one Green who secured seats in the House of Representatives

Could be days before we find out whats going to go down!

I've held off on 10.6.4 because of Photoshop CS5 slowdown reports. This update was heavily beta tested from what I remember. Lots of problems. I guess I'll wait till 10.6.5.
Have you actually installed the latest Photoshop update (12.0.1)?

right -- just tried 2-3 different ways to get some qt streams. indeed, i got a couple stations playing classical music (WGBH Boston, WCPE), but all the selections that were always there in the past are gone, e.g. npr, cnn, abc, bbc etc. either an error (-2129) on trying to open, or the blurb about channel selection having changed, please update your existing software. i have tried to update, and i assure, there are no updates available.

You have to be 18 to work there.
If you want to survive, then just don't do part-time. Full time spots at Apple retail are extremely hard to come by.

I have an LC 475 that's clock chipped to 33mhz. It's basically the 575 without the built in monitor. In my experience with the box, the last really stable and useful system to run on it was 7.6. I wouldn't put 8 on it.
Now, having said that, I think the OPTIMAL system to run on a 475/575 is System 7.1.x. It's easily the fastest, most stable and most solid in terms of functional features for that hardware platform IMO. 7.6 is a great system, but I think it needs a little more juice than the 475/575 can offer.

Um, no, I don't want to work with a pedantic fool like you every day, thanks.
I should mail him back and remind him to tuck his period inside the parentheses.
Not to be pedantic, just ignorant:
I understand that the punctuation marks go inside the quotes (um, not parentheses... maybe you do need him ;)) when part of a quotational reply. However, when used to mark a single word or phrase, it seems as though contemporary "correct" usage allows for the quoted word/phrase to be used as an indivisible object, meaning punctuation would go outside.
But, hey, I'm a programmer geek. I'm happy just to be able to communicate at all.

Absolutely. If you're on AT&T's $25.00/month plan it will cost you and extra $20 in the months when you do that. AT&T has told me that if you've got one of the old $30/month unlimited data plans you can use the iPhone as a hotspot with no additional charge.
