My computer doesn't shut down like it's supposed to... It'll end up on a blank screen with an idle HD (the screen will dim, then brighten with input and everything)... long story short, I have to force-shutdown every time, but apparently with no ill-effects because I do so near the end of the shutdown cycle... idk
Anyway, I can't get the update to install. I get the flashing light, the gross noise, and two startup chimes, but no firmware updating. It simple restarts and prompts me to update firmware from the start. Help?
P.S. 15" Macbook Pro and logging out first doesn't help the no shutdown issue

I'm quite sure Apple is targeting their computers to more than Christians.
The term 'Holiday Promotion' generally means a promotion that is available as early as Thanksgiving (since the day after Thanksgiving is considered the biggest shopping day of the year) and concludes on or about New Years Day.
So aside from Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Day, there are several other 'holidays' in that time period.
By referring to that time as 'holidays' you cover any conceivable holiday held within that time period.. Kwanza, Hanukkah, etc.

So which do you prefer?
That's a bit of a hard call (do I prefer SlingBox or EyeTV?). I like SlingBox because it works without leaving my Mac running. However, the EyeTV supports recording and offers streaming over 3G. What I'd really like is a hardware product that offered both. Kind of like an AppleTV that I could keep at home and that allowed streaming over 3G. Unfortunately, I don't think Apple will ever offer an AppleTV-like product that supports recording and which offers either a cable card or a built-in tuner.
I guess the only reasonable Mac-centric solution would be a Mac mini paired with the EyeTV.

I wouldn't make that assumption. Just because iLife ships only with new Macs of the same model year doesn't mean that you're stuck with iLife '05 on your 2005 Mac. It could easily be the case that iLife will be optimized for Leopard with enhanced features, but will still be compatible with Tiger (remember the days when software was optimized for Altivec but didn't require it?).
Of course, it's not impossible that iLife '07 will be Leopard-only, especially if it doesn't add anything to iLife '06 functionality. I can't think of any obvious new functions for iLife to add. More themes, some reorganization, etc. would be new features, but not breaking any new ground.
Two words: Multiple Libraries.
Both iTunes and iPhoto would be nice if you could have real multiple library support. For example, my wife and I have completely different tastes in music, so of our approximately 4000 song collection, there are maybe only about 400 songs that overlap. My wife REALLY doesn't want to hear Eminem or Evanescence popping up on her iPod, and I REALLY don't want to hear Alan Jackson or Garth Brooks on mine. Yeah, we can set up playlists, and we do have a couple dozen playlists. But we create, delete, and change the playlists often, and don't want to have to update our iPod preferences all the time. We want two separate libraries, but that don't duplicate the 400 songs that we *DO* both like. (Okay, it may be closer to 1000. We do both like classical, and have a decent size classical section.)
Also I can imagine official support for net-storage shared libraries, especially with the net disk feature of the new AirPort Extreme.
Also nice would be if iWeb would store my website in a more convenient location, like, say, the 'Sites' folder. (I remember when iPhoto stored its library in the Documents folder, too.) And the ability to do two separate websites, to two separate locations would be nice. (It supports multiple 'websites', but they both publish to the same location. I would like ONE website on my .Mac site, and another hosted locally, but both designed with iWeb.)
iDVD supporting HD would be a nice addition. If not Blu-Ray or HD-DVD, at least the current "HD on standard DVD" format DVD Studio Pro supports.

Hopefully this is just a short term supply and demand thing. There probably aren't enough to go around currently for both institutional and individual purchases, especially if they just received a few large institutional orders. Once inventory ramps back up on them, hopefully they'll be available again for purchase by education individuals.

True, it may not be the best to split out power from one rail. But you can easily put in two NVIDIA Quadro 4000 in a single system, which is a pro level graphics card.
nVidia claims 142W for a Quadro 4000, and PNY for example, has it at 152W. Either way, this is less power than some gaming cards pull, and is why it's possible to use 2x of them in a MP.
BTW, it's ~110W or so more under full load for a pair of 5770's than a pair of Quadro 4000's. :eek: :D

I have many reasons why I don't like them and their religion. First and foremost is because of the fact that Israel and its "nazi-like zionist army" have committed crimes against humanity.. Killing innocent Palestinian men, women, and children just for being Palestinian. Israel is doing exactly what the nations of Eastern Europe did to the Jewish populations there in WWII.
2ndly, there is a strong parallel between Zionism and Nazism and also racism. If anything Zionism is the root cause for why this race is hated in the world. Their religion also teaches to not associate with Gentiles and others.. In case you don't believe me, look up the BABYLONIAN TALMUD and how racist and perverted it is.
Israel cares about no one, and the foolish idiots here in this "dying" country called America(dying b/c of economy and debt) are still supporting them.. I say, if you support the killing, apartheid machine then you are supporting the destruction of a race of people, namely the Palestinians.
For those ignorant of or not really learning about the true nature of the government of Israel let me refresh your mind a bit.. If those monsters had their way without Obama, they would finish the job.. Obama and the world had urged and forced Israel to stop building settlements, but yet they still do.
Remember, its simple mathematics. The Jews number today 13 million and this number is drastically reducing because of the large intermarriage rate and Jews who try to assimilate to be like everyone else. Judaism as a religion is dying as we can see.. I am happy there are Jews out there who are seeing the light that Judaism and Zionism are failures and that Israel has FAILED to help anyone or anything..
I could go on and on, but I think I will stop here.. but I leave this on one note: So long as Israel exists, there will be future problems in the future for the US and the world.. I pray one day that Palestine becomes a reality and finally the freedom of the Palestinians is realized.
Joshuarocks, I hope you enjoyed your time here in the PRSI.

Yeah, I guess you do gotta "put up with that" unless you plan on killing the woman :confused:
Sorry, I don't play the "human shield" game. She's as responsible as he is for what happened.
The dude has issues, and took off with his wife clinging to the hood of his car. If she tried to roll off she may could have been killed! But hey, let's go ahead and blame the victime here.
I don't doubt that he has issues, and I don't doubt that she could have been killed - but if she had stayed the **** off his car, she'd never have been in harm's way to begin with.
First rule of diffusing a hostile situation - if one party is willing to walk away, you let them. Going after them and jumping up on the hood of the car as they're trying to leave makes about as much sense as stepping in front of a train to get it to stop.
No way I vote to convict this guy if I'm on his jury.

ah well maybe 2011; with usb3 and an extra TB port!
OLED 3D touch screen would be nice too
Nice mockup but this wouldn't have a DVD drive or a backlit keyboard. Also, I do not like the color and the screen is glossy. Gawd!!! :)

Not everyone can afford to develop something. That doesn't mean their idea is worthless and they shouldn't patent it. OTOH, there are only so many ways of doing certain things and being able to patent "3 finger gestures" is flipping ridiculous, IMO. In fact, I think most software patents are ridiculous in that they just abstract ideas without any specific way to achieve them. Programming should mostly fall under copyright, not patents, IMO. Smart phone layouts patentable? UGH. You might as well just let someone patent a suit and tie.... It's ridiculous anymore. Small businesses generally don't stand a chance under litigation even when they're right because the big guy can drive them out of business with legal fees. The whole system sucks.
I agree
That's why a system without any patents would be a lot better and fairer than it is now.
There shouldn't be such a system,things would be a lot cheaper.
I live in Asia most of the time where copies of many things are available,those people just can not afford those ridiculous 1st world prices.
Especially Songs,software are notorious for being so costly.

When android phones are literally being given away, what is the surprise with the 'surge'? One system is popular because people want it, but the other will eventually surpass it because its an open system on many different phone platforms that are often included for "free".
1. So Google being smart about Android distribution is wrong?
2. You can get an iPhone 3Gs for free in many place, as well as $49.
Showing how Android is surging ahead is meant to show which OS is winning, but often (as is the case with this report, I believe) they are only looking at phone sales. Because iOS runs on iPads and iPods, Apple's share is higher. I wish we could get more concrete evidence on this.

True, but the biggest problem is that (from what I recall working at Apple and many posts on the forums) Apple counts shipping units as units sold, as well as units solely sold for replacement.
e.g. A user getting his/her iPhone replaced will be given a free iPhone, but Apple counts that as a "sold" unit in their inventory.
What these numbers do show me though is that not too many people really care about talking and surfing the web at the same time. Making one of AT&T's biggest advantages moot.

You look for equivalence where we have stated none. We have simply stated that her choices endangered her own life. She is a victim of herself. That is our only point.Speak for yourself. You clearly stated that she should bear sole responsibility.
"She made a bad judgement call and if she was to die because of it, she should be sole responsible." These were your words.
Your tone will not be missed.

In Stockholm and Frankfurt, I hardly see any iPhones. Also, I hardly see any iPads. I do however see a ton of MacBookPros but almost no MacBookAirs.
I find both places very style-centric (Stockholm especially), but also somewhat frugal. I don't think that iPhone will reach as large of a market share in Europe due to the high upfront cost of an iPhone (659€/799€ for 16GB/32GB).
Actually, it's running joke that you can identify an American by iPhone/iPad (aside from the loud inane conversation).
i'm from near frankfurt and i have yet to see a iPad out in the wild ... so much for portable :P but i seen one used at a friends house ^^
i see lots of iPhone's in my class tho, its kinda annoying to have a iPhone by now. we had to do a project for class recently and 4 of 5 out of my group had a iPhone 4 (with 2 of those having shattered screens - but that is another matter)

Darn guys, do you think it would be smarter for me to buy my core 2 duo macbook after the leopard release?Only if you're gonna wait for the first hardware refresh after Leopard is out, unless $129 is gonna ruin your life then if you buy this hardware now.
i.e. the MacBook C2D hardware is not going to change before Leopard is released next Spring. I think it's highly likely the next MacBook refresh will be several months beyond Leopard's release. Ability to engineer and deploy Santa Rosa improvements won't be possible before late June-July '07.
So unless you are so miserly that you can't afford another $129 then, I think you should buy it in January so you can save another $79 on iLife '07. :)
