Aloha everyone,
I'm not convinced that the Airport Extreme is really worth the $180 price tag, other than it being an Apple product, and I think, uhh KNOW, that Apple rocks. I was wondering about the CD contained with it, however. Apparently it contains the firmware update necessary to enable 802.11n capability in the NICs of all the Core2Duo Macs, of which I have one. What about those of us who either haven't bought, or aren't interested in buying, the Airport Extreme? Has anyone heard any rumors of Apple offering the firmware update through Software Updates? I mean, no offense, but we can find other "pre 802.11n" routers for far less.

I was not aware that I broke a rule. I read some of the other blogs and thought this is in the same vein. Now what? MS

The Boot Camp drivers provided by Apple aren't that great, especially for the trackpad and the brightness controls. When I'm dragging and dropping files in Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro, I tend to press down with one finger and drag with another finger.
I have my trackpad set up on Windows 7 and OS X to have it so that the bottom left corner is left click and the bottom right is right click. Tap to click is disabled.

Oh man!
Link pls?
I used to have this wallpaper years ago, never saved it but did love it.
I even found an abstract version of it somewhere online where they got rid of the stars and the purple aurora area was simply purple shady lines..:rolleyes:
I know it's on InterfaceLIFT, just search "orion" or something.

In order to receive the benefits of ssd wouldn't you want your apps on it instead of the magnetic drive? If your apps are on the magnetic drive your ssd is really only helping improve boot speed, not helping app launch time/response etc.

Mine is a 4.2.1 version and i have a similar problem with my iphone ... It is so so annoying !!:mad:
You can't use limera1n and gp to jailbreak 4.2.1.

I'd go to http://www.speedtest.net/ and see how fast your computer's network connection is over wireless. If it is around the 15Mbs, then you really don't need 802.11n. I've found that 802.11g is generally good enough for me on 20Mbs. I did, however, add Ethernet for in-house communications, so it became less of a worry.

I agree with the frustration with Apple.
In someways, I feel bad that I have had to JB my iOS devices. But it is frustrating that it is what is necessary to try to have a reasonable experience.
For example, from the get go, I don't have to swipe to unlock. Why is something so basic not built in to the control panel? If I want to turn off Swipe To Unlock, I should be able to, period!
I find it very frustrating that I can't connect my USB card reader and read CF memory cards. My choice to upgrade from 3.2, but frustrating nonetheless.
I also should be able to change the default browser, display anything I want to VGA, change my brightness with a couple of clicks, put more on my dock, etc.
On the other hand, it is hard to dispute the number of quality apps. I know I am not married to Apple, so, if and when there is a device and OS equal to the iPad/iOS, I will have NOT qualms about switching.
Wow, you hit every nail on the head. I agree with you 100%. I think Apple's defense of trying to create a streamline experience is bogus.

It is my understanding that the jailbreak from Comex used proprietary Apple code that would have landed him in legal trouble if it was released to the public. This hole was patched in iOS 4.3.1. While I haven't heard any news about others working on the jailbreak, I'm sure that there is work being done.

Now the Mac app store is up and moving along with Apples own iLife suite apps, would people prefer buying them separately from the app store. or buying the retail box. ?You ignore a third alternative--purchase a digital download from a third-party developer. Most developers, including Adobe and Microsoft, have their mainline applications available for download. Rarely ever do I purchase the "retail box." Why? Ask yourself how many users have lost their distribution discs for this or that software package.
If you want to purchase a package and then sell the disc on eBay, then I can understand your dishonesty. For the honest among us, the disc and its packaging are not needed in most cases:

i think you should slow it down, and maybe pause a bit longer at the end. It rushes - i don't get the chance to absorb it. Maybe him drawing a comma might help convey the million idea. I do like it, but i prefer your existing one - it uses timing really well.
Yeah I know it goes quite rough, I've been working on it as I'm typing now. I know this is very rough so, I'll finish the good one in a bit.
Glad you like it though ;)

[QUOTE=Raid]I've noticed in the last day that all the links on the left and topics on the right are now in italics (and they maybe bold as well). I use opera & explorer here, and I'm not sure how it looks on safari, but it's hard to read on both of those browsers.[/QUOTE

Well I was going to try and post a screen shot, but today it looks normal for IE and Opera... did you change anything? :confused:

But I've never had a problem with the logo...it's playful, artsy, and somewhat "cheeky"...which, to me, is just right for MacRumors. So, no logo change for at LEAST another year...if ever.:D

We use something very similar for a site I 'm consulting on, if I understand correctly.
We take aerials with a Nikon D200 that has a GPS hooked into it on the aircraft, so every image has a GPS stamp in the EXIF.
Those images get loaded into an SQL database and a bunch of PHP scripts that match the images with a Tele-Atlas map - each location gets loaded up and given its own page depending on location - one main aerial image, a map with a crosshair showing the location, weather based on zip code.
This sounds like fun for iPhoto.

i think what you are trying to do would be a symlink between the folders... you can google how to do it or look on these forums for tutorials.

I am more of a design guy at heart but have been helping my company do some web over-hauling of our sites. We have been using simply Photoshop-made buttons for our links.
Question: Can someone check out this site (http://komotion.com/examples/elements/buttons-and-links/). I am wondering if the buttons on the top leading off the page are made strictly using CSS/HTML, or if there is a photoshop template behind it.
From what I can gather on a few other CSS Button tutorials there may be a blank photoshop template behind it and the CSS can stretch it and add the text? Am I way off base?
Thanks for helping me handle my code ignorance :(
EDIT: Forgot about the mouseover glow... Is this done strictly through CSS or do you need an "after" state image?
