Either way, I like current technology, so I don't worry about updates after 6 months. I replace my computers every 6 months, and my phones as well. This was one of the reasons I defected from Apple's phones, got tired of waiting for a one-a-year product cycle for a phone that wasn't even the latest and greatest technology.
wow, that explains your attitude then. Apple has never been interested in catering to technology fetishists like you, and never will be. why don't you go post constructive comments on Android forums instead of negative ones on Apple forums?

I already heard this news about AT&T... alot of sources have already reported AT&T stores won't have any iPhone 4's on launch, but my question is regarding Apple Stores. KRON reported Apple Stores won't have any available on launch day for walk-ins. I doubt this is true, but wondering if anyone else has heard this?

I'm sitting here in Starbucks watching my friend install Leopard on his MacBook Pro. I will be buying mine at my school for $69. Horray for being a student!

I don't understand the huge mess part of your comment. You can always display things at a size that is comfortable for you. It was when screen resolution was fixed that everything was a huge mess.
With fixed resolution a designer never knew if his product was going to be displayed at 640X480, 800x600, 1280x1024, widescreen, etc. etc. Now a designer can design at a suitable resolution and the user can scale to a size that is pratical for them.
It is a good thing people. Don't worry.
Ah, but YOU'RE missing the point completely. As resolutions inscrease the interface can scale up because it is resolution independent in 10.5. Web pages are NOT resolution independent for the most part. Photos, graphics, interfaces are not. So, when you're looking at your killter 3000x2000 monitor yes your icons and OS interface can scale up and your photos will look very crisp BECAUSE they are vector or have extra resolution to draw from. Websites on the other hand will be fixed at 800x600 or whatever and unless you want them to be miniscule on your screen as they are shown pixel for pixel, they will have to be blown up in some way.
So the res independence IS a good thing and just fine UNTIL the monitor resolutions go through the roof for the same physical screen sizes.
There are too many things outthere that are desinged WITHOUT the independence. Icons inside nearly every application for example. All kinds of stuff. My guess is that this won't affect too much too quickly. It just addresses some issues with the current interface on high screen monitors.

I'll be down until Time Warner comes and installs road runner in my house. I hope they come and install quick! Sucks as my 2gb data plan eats up quickly :(
Should have my rig up to full power again. :D

I'm not buying the iPhone 6 timeline.
The 5 rumors make some sense, so as to not piss off the new Verizon owners who couldn't wait for the 5 to come out in June. However, assuming the 5 isn't slated to begin production until October, why would Apple release a new phone 6 months (or less) later? That will just piss both AT&T AND Verizon users who upgrade to the 5. I can't see them ramping up production for a phone with a 6 month anticipated life span.
Well it is important for them to actually try to get more competitive in hardware. Right now the iPhone 4 is far from being the best smartphone in terms of specs. The android phones coming out every other week are leapfrogging each other with better hardware and stuff.

Actually yes lol, I'll dig up my MBP box and show you (just got it a month ago).
Aw, then that's bad news for the ACDs... but perhaps good news for new MBPs? :D

VPC is great for compatibility with easy-on-the-processor Windows programs (small database apps and the like), but if you want to play any sort of modern game, you won't get any kind of decent performance with VPC. I've heard of some people playing games from years ago with success, but as many will tell you, don't even bother to try .. it's just too slow.

i changed my system font. if anyone needs help changing the menubar font let me know. Original can be found here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=11388367&postcount=153)
Could you PM me what you did to change the fonts? I checked out Wowzera's guide but Wowzera had taken down a certain file, and that was ages ago I checked.
Thanks,

Going from 2mb Ram to 4mb Ram is only $100. VERY much worth it in my opinion. The CPU upgrade is more debatable. And I'd go for 256gb on the SDD (128gb is a bit limited for today's standards if you plan on storing music and video).

My OOP is pretty good. I'll take at look at some literature this week on asp.net and sql server. Looks like a fun learning curve. This gig apparently is only going to be part time, so I doubt the app will be that big of a deal unless the people hiring are complete idiots. anyway thanks for the help.

Three things to try
Right click and run as administrator.
Compatibility mode, try xp sp3
Cpu affinity to 0 - may not be necessary
Mine was locking up on the updating image step but one of the first two fixed it.

Sorry to be so cruel on your first post.
Comic Sans?
IPod?
Yea. It was actually deliberate, even the 'IPod" - i wanted to toon it up a little but, give it a few extra tweaks, to keep it from being too close to the real thing, and just to add my own goofy touch.:)

I just joined MacRumor's seti@home team.
I had communication problems when I tried to connect to folding@home,
but when I have a few minutes, I'll give it another try.
When it works, the Verizon NationalAccess cardbus card is great!
Original core duo mac mini, powerbook g4 (1.67Ghz). Someday I'll load the boinc client on my dual core G5, emac G4, and G4 mini. But not today.

I'm freakin sick of the ITMS. :mad:
I love iTunes and my iPod, but purchasing music that can only be put on an iPod is crap. There may be a better player out later which I want to go to and then *poof* my ITMS purchased tracks are crap.

It's (significantly) cheaper.
It's better.
'Nuff said.
Its also illegal in our country.
You've definitely said enough.
