I have a 250gb Porche design and it's nice. I hasn't failed. It hums a little, and it spools down when I unmount the drive from the OS. I really don't get what all the design kudos are for it. It has a shiny front, and is pretty much a rectangle. I like SilverKeeper, the backup software that comes with it. Careful with what you choose to exclude during the backup.

If you're entirely happy with a smartphone camera and consider replacing your P&S, you must be happy with mediocre quality photos. Myself, I'd rather have my Canon for when I know I'll be taking photos, and my iPhone for "okay quality" snaps suitable for Facebook.

I spent a lot of time mulling over whether to buy a Mini or a second hand Powermac G4 - and in the end it was the upgradability of the Powermac that won me over. I really wanted to be able to switch to a machine that would be able to meet my undemanding gaming requirements and the Mini's 32mb graphics wasn't able to offer that.
Also there is the fun of taking a stock machine and upgrading it to the hilt - maybe that's not for everyone but I've been having a ball ! :D
I also had a wireless networking card that I knew would work with Mac OS X so the Powermac was just as an easy a fit into our home network as the Mini would have been. The only advantage to the Mini is that it would come with iLife.

I would contact Apple and they will replace the SuperDrive under AppleCare.

If so what do you think? is the charging port bigger than the oem apple bumper? (can you plug in non apple plugs)
Thanks!

What has a fault and a look got in common????
It might not work at all but it would still look damn cool.
Get a grip man.

Someone was asking about scanner reviews - not too much that's current out there. Many reviews date from the late 90's!! I guess the push to digital cameras killed most of the market.

I should note that the 4000ED is my third generation dedicated 35mm scanner. I bought a first generation Nikon personal scanner back in 1993. Hard to get a good scan, as it's dynamic range was pretty bad. My second generation was a Polaroid Sprintscan from 1998. Much better, but single feed and still spotty with complicated slides. I bought the Nikon 4000 in 2003 and have been VERY happy with its performance.

After some research my top 3 sorted options are:
1.- OCZ Vertex 2 120GB
2.- Intel X25-M 120GB
3.- Samsung 470 Series 128GB
I will be using it as my boot drive for Mac OS X 10.6.7, any suggestion which one would be the best option for speed ?, thanks
These are ok value for money options, try not to go with the OCz though if this article is anything to go by:
http://blog.macsales.com/9438-not-all-ssd%E2%80%99s-are-created-equal-the-story-continues
OWC, Micron\Crucial and Intel are the best brands and use the most quality components. With OWC being better than the Micron\Crucial which uses a slower Marvell Controller.

sorry I should re-word what I originally said,
The software isn't cracked, I was given the software and a serial number, I presume my friend bought the software and gave me a serial number to use however I did not purchase it and I do not have the installation disks available to me anymore, all I was wondering is if I were to update the software would I need the disks to hand and if I did not purchase the software would this matter.
I am a student in the UK and I understand the MBP is expensive and the software in comparison is a negligible amount of money however I purchased this following a LONG time saving up and as I have no income except that for living costs I was glad to get some free software, I am not in the business of stealing software or piracy.
I was advised to come to these forums for help and advice from other Mac users, I didn't expect hostility and rudeness...

Just a quick question... I downloaded the SMP Intel version for my MacBook Pro, but I can't figure out how to pause it! Last night I did a ctrl-c (quit) and it closed out... but this morning it started all over! What on earth is the "pause" command?
(yes I know I don't need to stop it for most things, but I like to at night and while I study because of the extra noise it creates.)

When I click the search box in IE6, the submit button does highlight, but I can still type in the text field.
It might be the button:active declaration in the CSS that IE6 is hiccuping on.
I just checked again and the "Go" button gets highlighted and I CAN enter text and search. My IE6 was installed automatically with XP Pro.

Honestly you'd be better off buying an intel mac mini, even the oldest intel one you could find would be better than the Powermac.
If you don't want to do that though, choose the Powermac. These things last forever so you won't need to replace the computer for a long time.
Only if it was an Intel Core 2 Duo based Mac Mini, since it looks like the Intel Core Duo Minis are being left behind with Lion, and they only just about equal most G5s anyway. Personally Id go with either a Core 2 Duo Mini, or a PowerMac G5 Air-Cooled <2.5Ghz I believe... since IIRC the 2.3s pretended to be but werent liquid cooled. Dual PowerPC G5s at 2.0/2.3 Ghz will still have some number crunching power for a while yet.

I bought one of these for my G5, love it. Looks cool and has very nice action, I seem to fly on this board! 2 USB ports (one at each end). Pretty cheap too.... $39 at Newegg I think. It gets my vote. :D
Sounds too good to be true ;)
How does it compare to an alubook keyboard? Does it have the same feel to it? I'm a bit worried that the keys will not feel as 'soft' as the alubook's.
I tried this one, and it really feels horrible (like a VAIO.. *shudders*) : http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Logitech%20UltraX%20Keyboard%20Keyboard:1991330435
Thanks for the link, I'll try to find a shop carrying it in Europe!

I've been adding articles of products announced at Macworld, but it seems it doesn't work for products with an apostrophe in their name. I added both iLife '06 and iWork '06, but neither of those pages show are world editable, regardless of whether I use "%27" or "'" in the links. Is this fixable arn?

My critique for the console version of the game is that as far as I know, you can't do much if anything with mods. This game can really use them. For some reason Bethesda created some of the ugliest characters I've seen in a game. This can be fixed with a character appearance mod. I played it for a year on my PC and loved every minute of it. Knights of the Nine is a worthy if not small expansion. I finally burned out with the Shivering Isles. And for perspective, I don't care for Fallout3.

Hello everyone! This is my first post on this forum, but I have been visiting for awhile now. I hope you can help, or point me in the right direction.
Pardon my ignorance on these issues, I'm certainly a newbie, but I am trying to change that with your help.
I currently have a MacBook Pro (Spring 2010), Time Capsule and PC. I use the PC strictly for school, but that will be changing in the very near future since it is on its last leg. I plan on buying an iMac this summer to replace the PC. That is, as long as I can get the network to work the way I want it to.
I will be taking my MBP to school so I can work on projects between classes. I would like the network to work in a way that allows me to work projects on the MBP, then when I get home and turn on the iMac I can resume working on the projects and visa versa. So the computers basically mirror each other for files, documents, music, email, etc. (this is how my network at work performs). There has to be an easy way to do it, I'm just not crafty enough to figure it out. I was told I could do it with my PC, but I never could get it to work correctly. Maybe if I run a back up with I get home, log out of the MBP, log into the iMac, run a backup then i'm on my way???
I asked the guy at the Apple Store, he said "yeah that's easy" then went through about 10 key strokes and said "there you go". Then he said that I would have to do that for each file, folder, picture...., who has that kind of time?
I also thought about buying the 1 on 1 service through Apple to help me with this, but I'd rather not lug my iMac, MBP and Time Capsule through the mall. Think this would be worth the money for me?
Thanks for any help!

to be frank, i would wait for the new computer which will have imovie11 bundled. i have no idea what early versions of imovie do to footage on import, but it's probably not nice. If you were using FCP it wouldn't be an issue.
fyi, mpeg4 is h.264 (kind of). h.264 is actually mpeg4 part 10, but the terms are often used interchangeably. Both however, are delivery formats.
I would import as DV since it would be the native tape based format and has less compression.
