Well thank you for taking the time to reply. It is appreciated. I went to that site; I did not know it is a $50 piece of software. It bugs me still that it is free on one new Mac and not on another that essentially costs the same.
Alas I dont know how to subvert the process, I am a bit of a newbie. The processes you kindly assume I know I do not. You are welcome to clue me in. I am still curious if the software can be had from my family member's eMac disc somehow.
Regards, ST

OK then, a little advice.
What would be a good looking way to get an ad out to clients....
Just something quick. I don't want anything fancy or interactive, just something I can fire off in an email....

So those of us that are still using 3gS's (that are on their last leg) should prolly go ahead and get a 4, and then wait for the 6...
How is your 3gs on its last leg? I have a 3g (look at that, no S) and it works just as well as the day I got it.
Why did iphone users think they are "entitled" to a new model every time one comes out?

When I go to bed, I do a shut down.
While you may shut down whenever you like, it's not necessary. Using sleep mode is perfectly fine.
I have been advised that it is “better the computer” to go into Preferences>Energy Saver and set sleep to “never”, as battery conservation is not an issue
Also not necessary. You can set sleep preferences for when you walk away, and temporarily override them with Caffeine (http://lightheadsw.com/caffeine/).
(alway on A/C power).
It's not a good idea to always be on AC power. Your battery needs to be used/cycled to stay healthy. For details, see the AC POWER section of the following link.
Which is “better for the computer”–to put it to sleep after each use, or to leave it running all the time until bedtime shut down.
Either is fine.
This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions:

MacTelChat has found hidden references in iPhoto 6.0.5 (http://www.mactelchat.com/articles/237-iphoto-6-0-5-shows-evidence.html) that show Apple is preparing iPhoto for integration with Google Maps. It appears as though a hidden button in the interface would allow hidden GPS attributes about a photo to link with Google Maps and show where in the world a picture was taken.
This news comes as AppleInsider revisits a patent application (http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2103) discovered in September by MacNN (http://www.macnn.com/blogs/?p=98) for a "multi-functional handheld device." According to the patent, the device could contain a multitude of hardware features, including:
- Microphone
- Force Sensing
- Camera
- GPS
- Cellular radio
AppleInsider also notes that Apple may be behind a survey conducted in the spring, which asked users to "rate their preference of form factor designs for a next-generation Internet handheld device."

Hi, need a little help from the web guru's.
So my site has a gallery page, with a bunch of images. I've used css to get border-radius, reflections, etc. The css reflections however don't render in all browsers, Firefox being the most important one. So as a graceful degradation I added a box-shadow to make the images look better in Firefox/Opera. Comparing Safari and Firefox/Opera, this works perfectly - reflection / no shadow in Safari, and shadow / no reflection in Firefox/Opera.
Google Chrome on the other hand, even though it uses webkit decides to render the box-shadow despite there being no -webkit- prefix. Is there any way to have the box-shadow display in FF/O but not in Chrome? The shadow kind of ruins the reflection.
The website is temporarily hosted here - costantini.mw gallery (http://f3-preview.host-ed.net/costantini.mw/Gallery/gallery.html)
While we're at it, the site is unfinished but some feedback on other pages and the design would be appreciated.
Cheers guys,
Stef

Actually, according to that article it looks like MS bought their last viable product and they then de-established the company. A technicality, but different than being bought by MS.
FWIW I corrected my earlier statement in Post #29 (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=2693362&postcount=29).
Something about these pics of Ballmer make me want to get up and shout "Developers! Developers! Developers!"

App store review is not a beta test service. Apple decides if the app is suitable for the app store. If it crashes or has obvious severe bugs they will reject it. If it violates one of their written or unwritten rules they will reject it.
You want your app to work well not because of the app store review. You want it to work well so people will like it and buy it.
Frankly I wouldn't worry about it too much. Aside from abiding by the rules there's not much you can do about it.
Certain things are tested automatically when you submit the app. I think this is mainly inspection for use of private APIs. If you violate that you hear about it within a few minutes.

I will buy the MBA when it gets a backlit keyboard.
Completely agree .. I bought an MBP 13" unibody when it got upgraded with a backlight and its the best laptop ever ... when I went to test the latest MBA the lack of the backlit keyboard was the only thing stopping me from sidegrading to it (the only 'upgrade' would be the size/weight shrinkage, the other specs would be a downgrade).
As the MBP 13" unibody was introduced without a backlit keyboard then I suspect the MBAs will get them at the next bump or maybe the one after that .. I guess it will depend upon what Apple do with the chipsets and whether there is enough battery spare for the leds 8-)

You will be constrained by the through-put of USB with an external drive VM.
That said, you could put a VM instance on an external drive and run it from there.
Alternately just store the VM on the external, and move it to the SSD when you need it.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate on a 9 gig VM using 512K of memory...so you may not need as much SSD space as you think.
Of course, gaming will change this pretty fast.
Would it be better t o try and do this off of a memory stick? How many gigs would I need?
By games I'm talking about mostly casual games with small clients and low GPU usage...

With this downloadable market, Microsoft and Sony have gotten it pretty well zipped up. Im not sure about the Wii as I havent really seen it online.
But Microsoft have done big deals with Sega and such, and are porting all of their games to the arcade store. Several gems which make Angry Birds profits look like chump change are available. And Sony have PS1 games available on demand.
I don't think Apple even wants to be a player in the Gaming Industry, not the big one anyways. They are a big competitor in the handheld industry though.
Maybe if Apple launched a console it might make some headway, but launching at this stage would be tricky, it has to forge friendships with developers, get deals cut with them. Last time Apple attempted a push into gaming, they let Halo slip through their fingers.

I still can't believe you lot in the USA have gone for yet another incompatible-with-the-rest-of-the-world frequency for your 3G network meaning that anyone coming to the USA won't be able to use your 3G network and your 3G iPhones will be about as useful as a one legged dog outside the USA.
It's interesting that the T-Mobile guy thinks that the prime use for 3G in the USA will be email and other user generated content and not music though. Personally the last thing I want is content rich email on my mobile phone.
Considering that T-Mobile is part of Deutsche Telekomm I'm not sure why they're doing it that way. Sprint, on the other hand, is using CDMA, so it's broadly incompatible anyway.
While I've looked at the mobile video on my phone, without the ear buds, it's unpleasant and even with them, it's rather not so useful unless you're riding in the back seat of a car bored to death.

Noise Ninja (http://www.picturecode.com/). It can do wonders to the quality of your photographs.
I was pretty desperate to get a better camera, but now with a few minutes in noise-ninja I'm really impressed with how some of the shots actually look. Sure, a better camera will make them better still, but right now I have other things I'd rather spend my money on, and purchase the camera at a later date.

Yeah and Disney is shut down the service after 8 months with little or no interest in the service. And is going to cost them $30 million to shut it down and as Disney and Apple sharehold it think it is a bad business model to be in.
You must be kidding. I first saw a commercial for this just yesterday during the baseball playoff. It seemed like a pretty cool thing to me. I hadn't heard about it before then, though...
