Skype is CPU intensive, this causes the MBA to work harder and the fans to spin to keep things cool. Why every week do we have threads on this? The computer hardware is doing what it is supposed to do. Its like saying "I pushed the "high" button on my blender and now the blender is going faster and getting louder".
I don't mean to sound mean or snippy here its not my intent its just that we have multiple threads like this every day.

I have no problem with the red i4, rather like it as a matter of fact. The rest of the phone is the most hideous looking thing I have ever seen.
+1 The sides look terrible. Come to think of it, I don't even like the red.

Eh, if nobody likes it at least we had fun trying to tape it like 50 times.
I'll be posting bloopers that happened during recording probably tomorrow seeing as we have another snow day in 60�*weather :D.
It's amazing how a 45 second video clip can take 300 takes when you're doing it with a friend/s. :)
Did you fight over who got to be Mac?
Now that might be funny.
"I'm a Mac."
"No, I'm a Mac."
"No, I'm a Mac."
"I'M A MAC!"
"You're a PC and I'm a Mac!"
"Insults will get you nowhere."
"You're a PC. You're a PC."
"TAKE THAT BACK!"
"PC! PC! PC!"
"Mac! Mac! Mac!"
"PC! PC! PC!"

A microfiber cloth usually does the trick, wet it a bit if you need to. For the screen use purpose made screen cleaner solution or wipes, available in all good computer stores.
DO NOT do what my other half did and clean the screen with furniture polish as she did on my new TV....needless to say she suffered for that.

Hey guys, so long story short I found out that my parent's property insurance doesn't cover my dslr gear and computing gear. Where would you recommend me go to get insurance for all my gear for myself? I'm looking around for hassle-free options now. Preferably online.
Thanks,
John
I have every single piece of camera gear, individually at retail value, covered under my USAA Renters insurance. Even with all the gear I have, it is only about $13 a month for Renters + Gear.

I happened to have a bad processor on my Dual 2.0 G5 a while back and everytime I reviewed the crash log after a KP, it mentioned the airport and the networking family. I ran hardware test after hardware test and they came up clean. I finally brought it to an Apple store and they told me a processor must have died or the logic board was dying (after bringing it to a so-called Certfied Apple Specialist and they told me it was a software issue...but that's another story). They replaced the bad processor and all was good.
My advice - hardware issues aren't easily fixable at home, bring it to an apple store if you're still in warranty or have applecare.

We have a small graphic design firm... four designers working on Illustrator and InDesign files... files might be 200MB to 1GB, generally. Really varies. Might be a brochure, logo design, packaging, whatever.
We have a Mac Mini Server running Snow Leopard Server, attached to a Promise RAID. All our files are on this unit. (Backed up regularly, yada yada.) We have a gigabit network, so it's plenty fast to move files around, etc...
here's the issue/question...
Our designers generally work on the files "on the server" rather than copy them down to their drives to work. They think it's faster and more efficient, and reduces the chances of extra files being created, or deleting the wrong one, or issues with "which version" is the most current, etc. Copying up and down files takes time, they say.
I argue (I'm the tech guy, not a designer) that it's asking for trouble. That working "off the server" could create file corruption if there's a network issue, or if there's an issue with a computer that's working on the file, or whathaveyou. I also think it's slow, even though it's a fast network. Any time saved "copying the file up or down" is going to be lost waiting for files to open and save and render and whatnot. I think it's very INefficient. All around, I just think it's a bad idea.
Whether it's a good idea, or a bad idea, or a standard practice, well, what say you? And if you think it's asking for trouble, what's the best way to deal with stuff like this? A different server? Is there good software that allows for making sure you're working on the current file, etc...? What are other graphic design firms doing in this regard?
If this isn't the best place for the post, let me know and I'll see if I can have it moved.
Thanks in advance.

See this thread if you consider the 6870:

However it, seems like there are some glitches vs. a 5870 with no real big performance gain.
I have a 5870 in my 2010 Mac Pro and every game runs perfectly with max settings at about 60-100 fps on my 27" Dell at 2560x1440.

Yep, your photos are nice.. but in today's digital world 99% of all current dslr camera equipment is capable of producing better work than 99% of all current photographers will ever accomplish. As others pointed out, professional success is more about marketing and sales than skill truthfully. I know some really crappy surf photographers that travel the world on some company's dime, while I am stuck on the east coast shooting masterpieces!:p:cool:
Unless you just find a different angle of something and portray it in a new and unique light that hasn't been exploited already; then you may really be on to something.;)
Clark Little (http://www.clarklittlephotography.com/) did it right, with a combination of honed skills, proper use of light and processing, he's revealed the surf in a way never quite seen by the average viewer and yet is appealing to folks who have never even been to a beach. Some risk also was involved.. but you've seen his pics even if you don't know who he is...

I'm not sure how many production weeks there were for the iphone 8gb. I can tell you that, this specific one was produced in July. Why are you inquiring about this info anyway?
Just bought a sealed one to keep it as a collector's item (or potential investment). Never been opened.

The only reason I have two partitions is because of the Panther beta - I didn't want to install it over Jaguar and then go through hell to get it back again if Panther was too buggy (which it is).

Well, technically they do! However shipping is a bit expensive and i'm hoping they WILL actually ship it. I requested overnight shipping on Wed, and it looks like I am going to have to wait til monday to get the part. not to happy...
Im tired of listening to a 5500 rpm fan in my ear... at least it is cool!
