Hi,
Planning to go to lakeside apple store? anyone else planning to go there? what time?
I'm planning to go there by 4 am. called up lakeside, they said they might open up the doors at 7am for the center? but dont know which entrance would be open first and will people be queuing up at the main entrances?
anyone has got any more info on this?

Thanks. Is there a particular reason it did it though?
Who knows? I wouldn't worry about it, unless it happens frequently.

does it make any sense that only real places in tarrant county to get apple stuff are southlake and the bestbuy in grapevine? wouldnt it make sense for bestbuy to put them in somewhere else?

OK.
Well, first off, you cannot have both OS's on the RAID card. OS X would boot from the card, but Windows will not. This is why the Windows disk must be attached to the ICH (it's been tried unsuccessfully with multiple cards from different brands).
But with this configuration, you will be able to use the Boot Loader built into the MP's firmware to select which OS you want to boot (still have to set the OS X boot disk under System Preferences). Windows is done during the installation process (you select the disk location, and that gets set in the Boot Loader).
Take a look at Apple's Boot Camp page (http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/) for further information (How To Guide).
Assuming you mean to use the ICH for the Windows disk (backplane connector that's meant for the empty ODD bay), see above.
To access the Boot Loader Menu, hold down the Option key during startup (brings up the installed OS's), and select which one you want to use.
The kit includes a means of getting power to the disks (connects to the connector on the backplane board <one with the PCIe slots>, where the drives normally connect to <both power and data to the ICH>). So you get up to 4 of these (part of why you need to pay attention to the part number you order from MaxUpgrades).
It's meant to get up to 4x HDD's attached to a 3rd party RAID card (includes all the parts needed to do this, such as cables and custom trays that are shallower in order for the cables to fit).
In short, it will do what you need (has been used successfully many times). Just make sure you order the right part (both system's model year as well as the disk count - it's not hard, but do pay attention or you may get the wrong one).
Ideally, run both. So if the budget allows for it, get it.
BTW, make sure the UPS uses a pure sine wave inverter, not a stepped unit (i.e. SmartUPS series from APC). There are another type beginning to ship (PWM based steps = more of them, so it better approximates a sine wave). But for about the same cost, you can get a true sine wave unit in the refurbished market if you look.
Thanks.
So I have now upgraded the Mac Pro with 2x X5690 and they work great. Only thing concerning me is the temperature for processor A is like 6 degrees higher when idle (B 28, A 33) and up to 12 degrees celcius higher when stress testing in Prime95 in OSX. Using iStat, it unfortunately shows only the average temp for all cores on any one CPU and not temp for each core. Is these anything available for OSX that will show all core temps?
I doubt it's a case of heatsink having poor contact with CPU due to thermal grease having gaps etc. Because the temperatures are still in the norm, it's just that CPU B is really cool. After about 15 min in Prime95 it sort of averages 63 for CPU B and 72 for CPU A and these 1366 chips can safely do 78/80 as far as I recall.
Not worth remounting you reckon ? I applied even amounts of MX-4 to both chips and covered their surface entirely.
Also I understand bootcamp does not work with RAID volumes but is there a utility available for OSX that would allow me to partition my 4x 3TB RAID5 volume as such: 4TB HFS partition and the other 4TB in NTFS. I want that RAID5 space to not only be available to OSX but also to Windows 7 that will be installed on the other SSD.

I just got my BSE order today (bought it when they did 10% discount + free shipping). I got a open envelope and packing slip, no screen protectors. It appears they didn't seal the envelope when sending, because the adhesive to seal the envelope is unused.
Do you think BSE forgot to put them in there, or someone from the post office jacked em?
Has anyone else received an order like this?
I just received mine and no such thing. Just email them. They have a really good support staff.

A. Which version of Xcode?
B. What kind of file are you pasting into? .cpp, .mm, something else?
C. If you disable syntax coloring, does the problem disappear?

Wow, and nobody could have seen this one coming. Proof that the demand is low: I've never even seen one!
Well just another failed product by microsoft.
No, I'm pretty sure Apple canceled the Zune.
This is all so funny. Almost as funny as Apple's total failure in the server market. Remember? They recently cancelled the Xserve product line and they even quietly retreated from developing a standalone server version of OS X. Did you guys laugh so much about that, too?
So, now Zune software is gonna compete with Windows Phone 7?
No. The Zune software is for Windows Phone 7 what iTunes is for iOS.

Fairly unique item
I doubt there is a market or book price for something like that, you would just have to put it on ebay and let people bid how much they want for it.
you might get $20 for it, or $200

Why European mobile service is better.
Almost everyone gets free incoming minutes.
Yeah, and you also let the person calling you pay a tarriff up to four times the rate of a fixed line call. Calling a mobile number can cost five times as much as making an international call 20.000 kilometres away. Ever wonder why Europeans don't use their mobiles to make voice calls? :)

i was in class when the first plane hit, but we were unaware that anything had happened. while walking back to my dorm room, one of my friends had a radio and was listening and said that the pentagon had been bombed or something like that had happened, they weren't quite sure. i was just like wtf? about five minutes later i got to my room, flipped on the tv, woke my roommate and started waking everyone on the floor. and we just sat there for the rest of the day. the remained of classes were cancelled.

in washington dc. differential equations class.
walked outside at 9:40ish to people rushing to leave town, national gaurdsmen and policemen driving hummers around- general confusion and terror.
spent the day looking for a red cross station to give blood- the red cross building was already closed.
watched the smoke from the pentagon from my aprtment.
terrible day. not something i'll ever forget.
