Plus, when it comes to numbers, there is no room for error.
Excel truly is the standard in this case (actually doing a good job).
You trust Excel? (Or for that matter Mesa or Google Spreadsheets?)
Try this:
In a new spreadsheet, give the cell A1 the value of 0.2
In A2 enter the formula '=A1*6-1' (the calculated value will also be 0.2)
Then copy this formula to A3 down to ca A40.
For every cell you should get 0.2 as a result, since 0.2 (the result of the cell above) times 6 minus 1 is 0.2. Right?
Right? Try it in Excel, try it in Mesa, try it in Google Spreadsheets.
And then repeat after me:
"I will never again blindly believe in spreadsheet calculations"

Aquisition for Mac OS X is also a very stable, very efficient and easy to use P2P program. I use it to preview songs before I actually buy them on iTMS... ;) Good luck!

If the battery is accepting a charge, it would generate heat as well as the charger. If it does not, then it migh be your DC-in board.

I have a dual processor 867.
I opened up Terminal and typed in "machine" then return.
It output the following line "ppc7450".
Doesn't sound like 7455 to me

Has any one else noticed, or has it already been pointed out, that on the iCal image on the apple.com Leopard preview site
http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/ical.html
we see the iCal app open but the little black triangle under the icon in the dock is missing.
Just like the finder triangle on the MBP box.

I know it is an old way of doing it but it works effectively for me
I go to www.amazon.com and select music, then search by song or artist and it will pop up the artwork, simply save it to your iTunes Artwork and add it to your music.
The one thing I absolutely can not stand is music in my itunes with no artwork, it drives me insane.

The only problem that I've seen with the new site are the random glitches I get involving differently colored boxes around the borders and such. Besides that, it seems really nice. I like the more modern look, I just fall into that camp that isn't as thrilled with the addition of the third column because of space/readability reasons, but I am already getting more used to it and within a few days I am sure it will be like second nature to browse the site for the information I am looking for.

Hi, new to apple products here. Purchased the 4th gen ipod touch and I'm concerned about protecting the front and back. Would buying a zagg invisibleshield full body (front and back) and also pairing it with a hard candy street skin case work? Or do you think the zagg shield on the back would slip out when I try installing it into the case? Any feedback or advice is appreciated. Thanks

Now really a lot of information comes at first sight. I have to get used to it to find what I am looking for really fast. But the overall impression is good.
Again. Good work.
I hope that the forums redesgn keep a OS X look. Metal or not.
Cheers

I'm upgrading my PC and I don't think I'll be needing the old parts. So I might be selling these parts. So here are some parts I'm considering to sell:
*Chaintech P4X400-VT8235 ATX Motherboard - 8x AGP slot, LAN, Sound, PCI, Two DDR RAM Slots
*Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.2ghz CPU (Socket 478)
*AverMedia PCI TVTuner with FM tuner and Composite & S-Video Video Im (Drivers can be downloaded online)
I'm not 100% sure if I'd be selling these but, I'd just like to know maybe how much these parts would go for. :D
-Limey
Dunno if this is a fair offer or not but I offer you $100+shipping for the motherboard and CPU

There was some good speculation going on at the PreNAB Editor's Lounge. Mark Raudonis was one of the few that got to see the new FCP at Apple recently.
http://vimeo.com/22057617
Of course he couldn't say much due to the NDA. I'm still excited to see what the big changes are, but I'm not very optimistic after watching this. Luckily we're likely only a few days away from finding out for sure.

Sorry to bump, but couldnt anyone help me?? someone must have tried RAM with heatsinks on there mac mini...The problem is so much RAM these days ships with the heatsinks fitted,

Three answers:
1) Don't do it, there isn't room physically
2) Any RAM you are considering buying with heatsinks is, by definition, not RAM sold with a guarantee of Mac compatibility. No Mac RAM is sold with heatspreaders. Buy from a reputable dealer who guarantees compatibility with the Mini. Don't put in random PC memory.
3) If you already have a piece of RAM that you are bound and determined to try then just take off the heat spreader - it's like, a $2 piece of aluminum held on by two spring clips... :rolleyes:

Finder:
- Have an address bar so I can copy and paste file locations. Really useful to a developer, especially with working between the Finder and Terminal.
- Have a way of seeing how much disk space directories and their children take up, both with number sizes and graphically.
- Stop freaking putting every downloaded file in the bottom right of my Desktop, on top of the last downloaded file. Put the icon anywhere else on the free half of my Desktop.
- If I empty the trash, I expect to see that volume's space taken or available value update right away for its icon, on the Desktop.
- Tabbed Finder windows?
1. Meh
2. I want that one!
3. I like stuff downloading onto the desktop
4. Oh god yes! Its so annoying now.
Also, I want FULL FTP support.

I own a Macbook pro and find it near impossible to install Applications downloaded from websites like HANDANGO and the like.
It is impossible. You need to run Windows on the Mac to install them.

Just when i thought i was set on the Macbook Air, i checked out a review about the new Macbook Pro 13" and i realised how many bells and whistles, aswell as improvements, i can get, for possibly cheaper.
I'd be using my new mac for the usual, iTunes, Chrome, Safari, Word Processing, but most importantly, or the decisive fact, Photoshop and Illustrator CS5. Now from checking out mroogle, and Macrumors threads, i came to the conclusion that the MBA would be just about adequate for my needs. But then i realised how much more comfortable, and just for peace of mind, id be with a Macbook Pro. i think i went into buying an 11" ultimate for the wrong purposes.
My two options would be:
Macbook Air 11" Ultimate-
1.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM
128GB Flash Storage
which comes to a grand total of 10648HKD/8,965.10 CNY/1,368.99 USD
OR
Macbook Pro base 13"-
2.3GHz Dual-core Intel Core i5
8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM � 2x4GB
320GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm
SuperDrive 8x (DVD�R DL/DVD�RW/CD-RW)
which would come to a grand total of 10648HKD/8,965.10 CNY/1,368.99 USD
so for the same price i get double the RAM, some ridiculous amount of better processing power, which if im correct, is necessary for photoshop, aswell as is the RAM. I also get just under 3 times the storage capacity, which also adds to the peace of mind, plus i get a bigger screen size to work with.
Aswell as an SD card, thunderbolt, and disc drive.
What im losing is the SSD and thinness of the macbook air. The thinness isnt all that important, because i find the MBP to still be rather portable, and the SSD, whilst it is lightning fast and everything, it doesnt quite compensate for the processor difference.
i think im pretty much set on the MBP, and i know that i should buy aftermarket RAM, its just i dont know where to buy the screwdrivers, so if anybody could give me heads up to either a link for the screw drivers, and possibly RAM? that would be great!
Also, any recommended sleeves/ bags? i dont want to put a case, for i find them ugly, but a sleeve would be nice.
So do you guys think i should go MBP or MBA?
Am i missing anything?
If anybody wants to share their experiences between picking between the MBA or MBP feel free to share. I want to see what others think.
all the best,

P.S. im a student, and this is all my money, which ive been saving for the last year.

I am curious as to how you (the forum) has your MBP's or MB's set up on your desks. A picture would be nice. A picture of my desk is attached.
Not shown: Harmon Kardon speakers. Logitech speakers. External USB (blue) Seagate HDD, and AirPort Express.
What is shown: 18.5" acer display, 13" MBP, wired Apple Keyboard, wireless magic mouse, Apple remote, original iPod nano box, original iPhone box, 13" MBP box, and Epson CX7400 series printer.

I bought my 13-inch MBA back in the winter and it's the best notebook I have ever used.
I say it's a notebook because it doesn't feel like a netbook. It's got a big trackpad, a full-size keyboard, a gorgeous high-DPI display, it's super thin. And it runs Logic Express smooth as silk. A netbook can't do those things.
