    Anyone get the new 'Search' on their 5G ? I have updated iTunes and done the iPod update. Its probably not even a feature I will use much but it's a shame it's not included in the update.

    Any luck with the games on a current 5G ? Would be quite nice to have PacMan

    In Brazil any import has about 80% in taxes. That is the way to industrialize the country and make people and companies build the products "in house".

    Building the iPad there would be a very good move since for the huge population and cheap professional labor.

    That is if America is under immediate threat, hence Bush's big case about WMDs before invading Iraq. America was under no threat from Libya. The President cannot simply go to war because he feels like it. That is definitely not a power he has by the Constitution but it is a power he'll take nonetheless. The Executive branch has taken more and more power away from the legislature and, most of all, the people and I don't think it'll stop until things get much worse.

    I really hope he isn't under the Keynesian impression that war is good for one's economy. This is the mark of an empire in decline.

    America did not go to war. It was a UN resolution. If America went to war Muammar Muhammad al-Gaddafi would be dead by now. Anyone who wishes this comparison to Bush is a fool.

    The macbook was hacked in 60 seconds. Why it was hacked or whoose software was responsible is irrelevant. The macbook was HACKED, PERIOD!.
    End of story.

    :eek: :mad:

    That the MacBook was hacked using a third-party card and third-party drivers isn't irrelevant, it's the whole point. :rolleyes:

    There's an important difference between standard configuration and this set-up which makes it so much easier for the MacBook to be hacked. Your cheerleading aside, no Mac is hack-proof, but there's a big difference between breaking a lock and opening it because someone left the keys in the door.

    So will this indicate CS6 end of the year?

    CS6 comes after Lion, which we can expect in February/March/April 2012. Lion and CS6 will be optimized for Ivy Bridge. Lion public beta is also possible after WWDC 2011.

    As you probably all know my Mac only setup, here is my Mac / TV / Gaming setup of my bedroom (I'm 15). PS3 is connected to the TV.

    The 'corner':

    The Mac / iPad desk:
    http://db.tt/Ng263v3

    The iPad is in the Apple iPad case. On the right, I can relax (watch TV, play PS3). On the left I make homework and work with the MBP / iPad. As I sit at the desk I often watch TV. Very relaxing. Photo is taken with my iPhone 4. My PSN is: jessieblommaart. Add me, I'm unbeatable with FIFA 11....;)

    Loving my setup, it's finished now.

    I really hope they put a graphics card in it (even 64MB) and an 802.11N capable wifi card.

    hmm... but shouldn't they wait until 802.11n becomes more than just a draft of a format?

    and when is the apple product spree going to end!?!?!?!

    The issue being that Halo proportionately seems to have a greatest number of jerks playing, as compared to say other games.

    I think you're choosing to miss my point. The feeling amongst many is that Halo proportionately has the greatest collection pinheads collectively. Whether Halo had only 4 people, 3 of them would be @$$hats, while say Forza ( which does have some seriously anal players ) might have 1 out of 4 jerks. The fact that Halo is the biggest online portion of Live, is besides the point, law of averages aside.

    The shame is that a game as great as Halo, somehow brings out the worse in such a large portion of it's players.

    ... And yes, the PA cartoon is dead on. :)

    I also promise I'm done with this, I just wanted to make sure I was clear. :)

    He didn't mean the Mac OS; he meant an app he bought from the App Store that was 4GB.

    I'm pretty sure he was referring to apps purchased in the Mac AppStore, not the OS itself.

    ah, I mis-read the post.

    my apologies.

    From one human rights disaster to another.

    I'd pay more for a product Made in America that is contributing to our growing economy and feeding starving, hard working Americans.
    To be honest, I'm from Germany and I would never ever pay an extra cent for a product manufactured in the US. The caption "Made in the USA" just suggests "Don't buy me, I'm going to suck". All these products I bought that were made in the US were overpriced and mostly of far worse manufacturing quality than comparable products from Asia or Europe. Just my experience, not that I hate Americans or anything, I like their ideas, creativity, inspiration and stuff, but the rest is better done by other people.

    But how many tickets were actually for sale? 3000? 5000? 10,000? Remember that the conference center needs to house all the Apple employees, the contractors, and of course all the booths/rooms.

    I would imagine that Apple purposely plans events (timing as well as location) that WILL sell out. Apple doesn't want to hold an event where only 50% of the conference hall is filled.

    Selling out in 12 hours may not be all that it's cracked up to be. But in theory if 100% of the attendees are truly developers, I could see a fast sellout.

    just download it, screw those multinational corporations. I'm already getting ripped off by Apple on my extremely overrated and overpriced MacPro. (didn't payed for it myself got it from work) Maybe some of the fanboys should stop kissing Jobs *** and glorify everything his corporation does or says. Why not complain about all the thousands of dollars Apple is ripping off from you by shipping outdated hardware in new machines, comes to think that lately every freaking thing Apple releases has some kind of problem...screen, video card,...etc. :eek:

    Apple is charging hilariously high prices for memory...when someone comments on it here the fanboys go "...Oh but you shouldn't by memory from Apple" well ok than why the hell are you guys complaining that Adobe or whatever other company than Apple is overcharging..why not apply the same philosophy, if you feel like Adobe is overcharging you than go Coral or whatever other software that fits your needs and stop complaining.

    Or just D O W N L O A D it, but i guess the elite or professionals you guys are don't get involved in anything this shocking wright.

    I would rather Apple optimize the current iOS to make the iPad run faster and more efficiently. If iOS 5 hits the mark, we can go back to adding more hardware. So far firmware upgrades have been for ADDING features rather than speed tweaks.

    Apple put the worst iphone 2g camera they had in the iPad 2, which was disappointing, but we live with it because it is still "ok" in bright light. We know it will get a camera upgrade for iPad3, not much to debate there. This is a good upgrade.

    A 3D screen, not so much a need and really not a want for many. Just make it faster, make it better, don't worry with 3D bells and whistles just yet. Make it awesome, then make it any way you want. Right now with a 2g camera in the front, no flash or autofocus, and a processor that is good, but not GREAT there is still much to do before moving on.

    The MacBook doesn't need a Core 2 Duo processor. Apple needs to leave a gap between the MacBook and the MacBook Pro.

    Putting aside the fact that Flash is crap, fair enough for Adobe for being so frank.

    It works great everywhere except some apple computers, iphones and iPods.
    But you knew that.

    I agree. Linux has the best server software out there. MS use to use their server software. But when you combine the sums of the parts, those numbers start to get very very small.
    you could say the same for os x ;). seriously, on some areas linux propably has the best apps there is. same goes for os x. it depends on what you do with the machine.

    Which Apple Store did you try, there is more than one in ATL.

    Only one in Atlanta really. Dunwoody isn't technically Atlanta.

    The only usable iPod is the iPod Touch. The ClickWheel "interface" of the classic is a royal pain in the back when you have to navigate through thousands of titles.

    If you use a classic for a long time, you get very used to the click wheel and find navigation easy.

    My soon to be sister-in-law has had a classic since the third generation (currently uses a 5th gen and an iPhone). She has got so used to the click wheel, she can move around her library (which maxes out her 80 Gig drive) in seconds. It's amazing to watch!

    I guess it is like some people do not like touchscreen phones and would prefer to have a fiddly little keyboard to type messages than a virtual keyboard.

    My guess is that the classic will remain, but may get a touch interface, maybe even a virtual click wheel using a little bit of vibration to give some feedback.

    There is a chance that the next iPod Touch will have a 128 Gig option, but it will be at a high price. I always think there is a need for a cost effective hard drive based iPod. Even looking at the Keynote where the iPod was announced, SJ compared the price per song and at the time, dividing the purchase price of devices by the number of tracks they held (a bit meaningless, but does prove a point), Flash was at $10 / track and Hard Drive was at $0.30 per track.

    Doing those calculations of the various models of Touch and the Classic you get;
    (Based on 256 Kbps AAC)
    8GB Touch = $0.31 per track
    32 GB Touch = $0.08 per track
    64 GB Touch = $0.05 per track
    Classic = $0.01 per track

    So the classic is currently the king of affordable personal music storage, however flash memory prices have fallen faster than super compact hard drive prices so should Apple double the capacity and keep the same price points on the next refresh, you could see Touches at around $0.02 to $0.03, so not much in it!

    My last point is that no matter how much storage a device has, there will always be people who will want more. I know people who have music libraries that fill a 2 TB external drive! They have however encoded their old CD's at 512 Kbps, so can use the option to re-encode to 128 Kbps when they Sync. The solution here could be cloud based storage, but you would need a constant connection to the internet which would firstly require every device has more than just WiFi. Probably need the Kindle 3G type of solution. Secondly, it is not always possible to be connected (i.e. on flights, underground metro systems, etc) and thirdly, you'd be draining your battery!

    I don't play Halo multiplayer for a couple of reason. The main one being that i suck at it. But the other reason is the wait time to get into a game and then out of it to get into another. I dont have that problem with Modern Warefare 2 so I am just wondering if its me and my crappy connection or what?
    I've never had much issue with the time finding a match, either starting out, or between games. I think the default timer between games is a 45 seconds. They give a little time so people can drop out if they want, check stats, etc. After that, it will start the search for however many people are needed. Keep in mind though, if you have specified any settings within your game search (skill, connection, language), it will take longer for their servers to find an appropriate match for you.

    I don't know if you like Firefight mode, but they have matchmaking available for that. That way, you aren't competing against other people, so you shouldn't feel too outclassed. And since the max players for that is 4, it finds matches super quick. Maybe give that a shot and see how it goes.
