bit density

But very close, and closer than it has ever been.
I have always wanted a small laptop. I need a keyboard, and pixel level accuracy. This leaves OUT the Ipad.
However, the MBA is not perfect. The software for sleep is not 100% perfect. I have received updates from both Apple and various software manufacturers that are on my machine, that I am sure that are directly related to crash reports that I have sent in.
My best friend the genius says he hasn't heard of my problems, but they happen all the time. (I am a fan of just shutting the lid).
I have an ultimate 11 inch machine. 4 gigs, 1.6 processor. The 4 gigs is perfect, but I would like the processor to be a little bit faster. Some apps that I run, are just a "bit" laggy. I would also like 256 gig SSD. I actually think I need about 200 gig. I am definitely making decisions to cut down on app load because of disk space, not too mention ANY real amounts of media. I would also like a bit more physical screen size. It looks like more should be available. I don't need back-lit keys, but I wouldn't care if they added it.
It's almost perfect.

Mods, please lock this thread. I received correspondence from Apple and have resolved the issue, but as it is under NDA I can not share that information. Thanks for your understanding.
I'll leave it open in case others wish to discuss this or similar issues.

Centris 660av, PowerMac 6100, Performa 6116, Quadra 660av, same form factor. These have been desirable systems in the past, but good luck selling a machine with no hard drive.

Why would I pay $200 for a phone that doesn't work?
huh? maybe for the $45 unlimited service SIM card within its belly? duh

Last time jailbreakme went live it was like 3PM CST or something
Let's hope that's the case! My iPad 2 is a paperweight without jailbreak :)

Try the non-GUI FSCK.
Hold down Command + V when you push the power button to turn the computer on. When the screen turns black you can let go of the keys. It'll show its verbose startup sequence and eventually get to a point where it's prompting for commands.
Enter: fsck -y and press Enter.
It'll run through the file system check..and this may take awhile. It'll tell you if it finds anything and then automatically correct it. When it finishes, it'll put the command prompt back up. Rerun the command until it says that no changes were made.
Edit: When you're all done, type reboot and hit enter at the prompt. Your Macbook should then start back up normally.

Interesting to see that we can create configuration profiles that contain VPN settings for Juniper SSL VPNs, which require a third-party app from Juniper that doesn't exist yet. :(

Looks like it's coming in Spring in 3D as well for those who have the appropriate kind of TV sitting at home. (Not me...)
Not much of a shocker at this point, but it's nice to finally have confirmation that it's coming! :)

Ummm ... macromedia.com ?
Is their site ironically slow or is that just me? It's not massively slow, but you'd think they'd have really fast/efficient code...

It works without the Internet. When connected to the non-Internet network, do you see the little WiFi bars in the status menu and/or does the iPod get a proper IP address?
Yes I get the quarter round radiating bars plus a tick to the left of the network name. It actually seems to be staying with it now and not wandering off as it sometimes does.
As for IP address I have gone for a static one same as I did for the router that works - chose a slightly different actual IP address on the same subnet. Everything else the same as for the other router - not that it should matter - gateway, DNS etc should be irrelevant.
And if I ping the subnet it does recognize and ping itself

I purchased the new iMac launched this week and it has a custom OSX build 10.6 that will not update to 10.6.7 and I am unable to launch my Steam copy of Portal 2 because Steam prevents the game from launching and an alert box appears saying Portal 2 requires 10.6.7. Anyone got a fix? (tried the combo update, won't install)

Where did you get those awesome icons?
Also, how did you make your menu bar black? Some kind of a hacking application?
Black menu---> http://www.maxthemes.com/
Download Aqua Extreme. Choose the "Obsidian" package after you download it.

Agreed, but the latest nano is pretty poor, was surprised, seems very unapple-like. There is room for a good ultra portable small music player (gyms etc, I see so many ipods) and for them to please, please make a good quality headphone as standard, the ones that come with ipods (of any price) is pathetic. So, let's see what they do.
Why should they make good quality headphones? Seriously, I really don't think that makes any sense for apple or the consumer. Just think about it. Anyone who is serious about getting a nice music listening experience with their iPods will buy some good headphones or did already anyway. So when apple adds high quality headphones to their ipod line (making every ipod cost like 50 EUR more) everyone who already has headphones they like very much (For example I bought some Shures for 100 EUR) would be very very pissed off at buying useless headphones for 50 EUR they never wanted to buy.
As much as I see that a high quality product such as the iPod classic is bundled with something as cheap as the apple earbuds, I just don't want to be forced in buying an expensive headphone which I probably won't like (sound or comfort). Imagine buying a new amplifier for your hifi system and they come bundled with what the producer thought were okay speakers.
Just wanted to clarify that one as this is a very common complain about the iPod line which I just don't see at all.

Another in the "too easy" series. iMovie this time!
We're trying to catch the evil cat.
Kinda choppy because I had to cut it down to ~30 seconds.

really? breathe deep and try that again, you're not even close.
You might want to look stock prices if you doubt his comment about Microsoft. I've had Apple stock less than two years and have over doubled my initial $50K investment.

Apple were going to make the Facetime protocol an open standard. Its up to others to pick it up. Personally, I'm surprised Apple haven't already made a Facetime app for windows.
I've been waiting for an announcement of them opening the standard for a while now but it still hasn't happened. As a cross platform standard I'd definitely be interested in using it but as of now, I can't.

I keep seeing percentages but never the raw numbers. iOS and Android may be increasing their market share but is the market just increasing as far as the number of users? I would guess that iOS and Android aren't leeching customers from traditional handhelds so much as expanding the user base overall and their market share is increasing because that increased user base is only coming from those devices and not from the traditional handhelds (ie DS, PSP, etc.)

Well in case you haven't noticed, Kanye West's performance has been removed from the webcast version of Apple Music Event.
LOL...I was wondering why it ended so abruptly. I can't say I couldn't see this coming

hows the quality compare to when you stream at home? Assuming vpn connection to the internet is slower
Over 3G the quality is less. Over wifi it's very clear.
