I am leaving the mac world :( I just got a HP computer with a slow celeron and 256 memory. My parents though need a more powerful computer, their 233 mhz beige isn't cutting it. So i am giving them my eMac and using the HP still macs hit intel. This is not going to be fun.
Why don't you give them the HP and you keep the eMac? Just a thought... or couldn't you have bought a MacMini for the low cost of what you paid for an HP?

Thank you all so much for your help in this.
So I won't be giving it back with risk but should I just get a refund?
If I C.O.D it back to him, he will have to pay the $650 back to me before he gets his 16gb back. Even if he was legitimate, who cares, I'll have my $650 back and nothing lost and a new iPhone from a reliable source to gain.
It's only $100 or so more for a sealed 32gb (remembering this is AU pricing), so it's still cheaper than directly through Apple.
The reason I went with this guy is well, I went a little Apple crazy. I wanted an iPhone so badly I wasn't thinking.
If I get my money back, one thing I've learned is, if it's through ebay to always use Paypal and have a listing. That way I am protected no matter what.
So, hands up who thinks a refund (if it will happen) is the best course of action?

Why don't you run the computers as the columns and the specs as the rows? That way it's a 'side by side' comparison.

He died from a wound to his right calf?-- that a chicken inflicted?-- in two hours?
My thoughts exactly, I could see him dying from infection, but not in 2 hours.... There must be more to this.
Do you think there was more to it � maybe fowl play was involved?
All I have to say is ROTFLOL! :D

I have a package design project in my design class and was wondering if anyone had any good ideas for packages that need to be redesigned. You never really realize something is poorly designed until the new one is released. I have looked at many good designs but can not thing of a product that needs a revamp.
any ideas would be appreciated

I was using my case till I bought a Zagg Invisible shield and the case wouldn't fit around the shield, so I had to get a new case, no big deal though.

A certain company is trying to shift product udpates away from major Expos. They've found that the lack of orders directly preceding an expo, as well as the expo dates not agreeing with major edu buying schedules have made this a bad idea.
You can expect to see new software releases at all Apple expos, and sometimes product introductions, but I think that will be it in the future.
This allows for a more consistent sales pattern, and keeps you guessing as to when updates arrive.

Reinstalling the OS even once is so unnecessary, it's difficult to conceive of reinstalling it so many times that your hard drive would be damaged.

Thank you for your advice and help. However, because this particular iMac G4 didn't look so good, I am no longer interested in it. I did, though, buy an iMac G5 17" (1.8 GHz with Bluetooth Keyboard & Mouse) for $328.95. Earlier today, I tried to bid on a iMac G5 with an Intel processor that was running Snow Leopard. I lost by $5.01! :( I wanted that one so badly!
Out of all the iMac G5's I looked at on eBay, this one seemed to be the best of the bunch for a reasonable price. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=300545329931&si=BD2wv5BIwqV4v6oXYLbzvgBPDXY%253D&viewitem=
Though I did buy an iMac G5, I did find these REALLY, REALLY nice iMac G4's running Leopard. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190526970385&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I had the 400 iMac DV SE, and I just put in a 500MHz w/ a better grphx card (was on the 500mhz mobo) and it runs like a charm. Just get the mobo off eBay and there ya go! ;)
so you brought the 500mzh motherboard and just stuck it in, and it worked fine cool

1) Yes.
2) No, but know, that the TM backup is not an image like CarbonCopyCloner (http://www.bombich.com) or SuperDuper (http://www.shirt-pocket.com/superduper/superduperdescription.html) are capable of doing.
But the OS version on the MBP and the backup should be at least the version the Mac mini comes with, which should be 10.6.6.
Also take a look at rsync or ChronoSync if you want to use both Macs and want to have the data in sync.

You are quite mistake, this second preview is near feature complete. It needs some polishing, but for the most part it's nearly ready to be shipped.
Sorry, but it is nowhere near ready to be shipped. It easily needs another 3-6 months. It's still buggy, has performance issues and many features are still missing.

I actually wasn't videoing at the photo shoot, I was taking pictures. I did edit the video though.
Ugh! That cameraman was awful. Far too much twisting.
As for you editing: Yeh was v good. I thought there were to much fades for the beach shot. They worked on a few of the shots, but when both shots were panning/zooming they felt wrong. Other videos were good :)

It's been a while since a console release, but they do those to this day.
The GameCube I manage to find at a store that decided last minute to not sell bundles. My friend found one for their kids at Christmas from Best Buy who decided the week before Christmas to sell them by themselves.
The PS3, XB360, and Wii were all sold as bundles when they were released (I managed to go back to the store I got my GameCube from and they made me at least buy an extra controller or game - compared to other stores which made you buy extra controllers and 2 games).
