In my business I provide IT support for residential and very small business customers. I don't handle any clients who are big enough to require a real Windows server like Windows Server 2003 or 2008.
However, I have installed a couple of Windows Home Server appliances for customers - mainly for backup purposes. I love the backup feature of Windows Home Server. It's the closest thing I've found to Time Machine on Windows. The problem is that Windows Home Server looks like a dead-end. HP (who had the best boxes) is getting out of the business. The new version of WHS doesn't look that great.
So, I recalled that Server will be included in Lion. A few questions:
- is there or will there be a limit on the number of client PCs that can connect
- can anyone recommend a free or near-free backup program for Windows that will work as well as WHS's? (automatic daily backups that are both file and image backups, and work with most recent flavors of Windows XP Home, Vista Home Premium or 7 Home Premium)
- anything else I should consider?

I don't think so as I only downloaded it for the first time yesterday afternoon, probably after they made the swich

Another stunning set of results, only thing that anyone might nitpick is iPad sales but considering some were holding on for the iPad 2 and that product was DEFINITELY supply-limited it's still a superb performance and more than doubles their PC sales. Decimates the rest of the tablet space that's for sure and the q3 performance is going to be VERY interesting.

That's what I thought. I'll have to sit here patiently and hope someone can help. Thanks for the offer ;)

What program should I use to try to get this to work with windows 7?
I'm also wondering what to put instead of optimum.net if I'm on Time Warner.

Android = best software
Apple = best hardware
Wish one or the other would resolve their issues, hehe.
Android is great for some people, IOS is great for others. I was a die hard w7 guy, always upgrading, cooking own roms, till I used the iPhone 2G.
User experience is unmatched on IOS, and all my android friends agree. They just like open-ness and 'you shouldnt have to jailbreak'.
You cant keeep throwing more and more processing power at something that doesnt work properly in the 1st place, hence why I'm with Apple stilll.
So I would disagree with your comment. I think Android have the best hardware and Apple by far the best software.
:cool:

They will get nothing unless they strike.
That would get them sacked.

... Who needs their crappy software anyway?
I do! I need entourage, xcel and Word, PERIOD. It's not so much a matter of choice as fitting in with the rest of my company. Mac users used to exist in a bubble, but no for many years now. They must also fit in with corporate.

I had a 10% off coupon for buy.com, so I just bought it off them - I'm assuming that you already sold your iCurve anyway, cuz I would've rather bought it from you than from buy.com!
Actually it's not sold yet! I do have someone contemplating.

What I don't understand is there is a perfectly good 4.3.0 exploit for the iPad 2. Why the hell can't comex simply release it for those of us who didn't upgrade?
I agree! I'm still running 4.3.0!

I want to be able to see the size (in Bytes) of the 8 photos I selected. Right now, Finder tells me that I have selected 8 files, but also tells me the total HD space remaining rather than the size of the 8 files.

The Airs look really tempting (once Lion comes out, not much point at the moment for me).
However I see comments about it not being great for the 'heavy lifting' jobs. I don't do much processor intensive stuff, but on my '08 MacBook, iPhoto sometimes takes a while and exporting an hours movie from iMovie it can slug quite a bit.
How do the Airs cope with these kind of tasks?

Hi, i would like to know if anyone here successfully got windows 98 running under bootcamp. I must run some old software for research purposes so any help would be appreciated!
I own a late 2009 macbook.
Thanks
I know in 7 that you can select properties for that program and tell it to run as what system you want. Have you tried that?

No it is. They don't know what they're talking about.

You can also try the tool at Unused-CSS.com (http://unused-css.com). It'll check a bunch of pages and let you download the CSS files with just the used selectors.

Mine won't install the Win7 Service Pack 1 - it just constantly fails. I've tried every suggestion I've been able to find, mostly from the SevenForums.com site, to no avail.
From the litle bit of research I've done, it seems there are issues with Win7 updates with MBP as well as other machines.
I really think it's a Microsoft issue since it's happening with all different brands of hardware.
I guess we'll just have to wait for MS to release "fixed" updates. :(

Necessary information: I have a MacBook 13�. It is on A/C power virtually all the time. (I calibrate the battery once a month, every month) When I go to bed, I do a shut down. During the day, after use I put it to sleep until I need it again. This sleep�wake cycle occurs about 10 to 12 times a day.
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 (alway on A/C power). Also to set the screen to shut down in approximately 10 min.
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.
Thanks for your advice�

holy smokes! I had no idea there were so many log files.
Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.
I think I must have been looking at a truncated format in the admin console... because this is much more detailed.
Now to backtrack the shutdown times (I haven't completely eliminated electrical issues).
Thanks!

Sounds to me like the hard drive is dead. Try booting from the instal disc and use Disk Utility to check the status of the internal hard drive. Also what discs exactly are you using to try and reinstall? Are you using the discs that came with that G5 (probably 10.3 or 10.4), discs that shipped with a new Mac or a bought copy of OS X 10.x?
