I thought they had gotten the heat down on the newer faster PowerBooks.

What type of income could one expect if you worked full time at an Apple store? Not that I am really looking to leave my job as school tech, but it would be an awesome job.

Everyone says how short it was. And yet it took me about 10 months to finish :D
I played it incrementally - due to having a load of other games - and thought it was great.
......
The sound is probably the scariest ambient soundtrack I've ever heard.
.....
Same was true for me, I played it one chapter at a time. Also, I forgot to mention that a pair of Sennheiser HD600 headphones (connected to my sony 26" XBR lcd hdtv via component) helped more than anything to immerse me, so I recommend high quality phones or surround sound to create that 'seal' that locks in all Condemn's juicy pulp and keeps everything sane out. Also, over an hour of tweaking the visual settings on my TV really paid off (more so than with say, Perfect Dark Zero or COD3). Less of an FPS than an FPHS, control in Condemned with the 360 controller was perfect, so I hope some shareware dev has figured out how to use those with macs.

Camino 0.8.2 is here...
Cool. With Firefox having a tendency to go braindead in its 1.0 release, it's nice to have a stable Gecko browser for testing things.

As I understand it, the issue of using music in your wedding video has nothing to do with breaking DRM, but instead with violating copyright. Even you get the music off of a CD, it would still be illegal.
That was a poor example, I admit. The wedding video situation is fairly complicated, depending on whether you're selling the video (which doesn't seem to be the case) and on the manner in which the song is used. If the song is played in the background by a DJ and it winds up in your video, there's not really an issue. Putting it in in the editing process would fall under fair use for private viewing, but because it's something you're sending out, I can't say off the top of my head whether this is also fair use. You are protected under the law for making mix tapes and CDs, even if you give them away in small numbers. If you make a wedding video and send out two or three copies, I believe this is still considered private viewing. If you send out the video to more than a handful of wedding guests, then you are redistributing and have to obtain permission.

Ok, if you were aware it was a handspring then you should have also known that the handspring visor is incapable of OS upgrades and therefore couldn't possibly be real.
It also brings up the question, if you knew this, then why on earth did you post it?

Is the 9000 Pro just more memory than the 9000? Why did apple replace the 8500 on the old machines if the 9000 is slower? Also, wasn't the GF4MX the chip above the 8500 in the Quicksilvers?:confused:

I will apply for a job @ an Apple Store (the nearest one is basically on the way to where I'll probably be going to high school) as soon as I can, but I've heard some of the guys in there say they've never heard of Apple hiring anyone under 18. :(
I'll probably try for it, but I also don't know how I'd feel about working in high school. I want to focus on academics as well as friends in high school... sounds horrible, but.... haha.
I just don't want my energy sucked into something that may hurt me and stress me out more than help me.
EDIT: Okay, it's summer and I can't sleep so I'm on here waayyy too late, but I just found a part-time Mac "specialist" position online that says "Typically requires some High School education. 0 to 6 months of retail experience preferred." So... I'm thinking that means under 18 would quite possibly work?

I read about some new F@H developments this morning on slashdot.
PS3 (http://folding.stanford.edu/news.html)
"...we will likely be able to attain performance on the 100 gigaflop scale per computer. With about 10,000 such machines, we would be able to achieve performance on the petaflop scale." screenshot (http://folding.stanford.edu/abeta-PS3.jpg) video (http://folding.stanford.edu/abeta_2spu_test02.avi)
ATI GPU (http://folding.stanford.edu/FAQ-ATI.html)
"We are beta testing the ATI GPU client software internally at the moment and will likely announce an open beta in four to five weeks (end of September)."
"Which GPUs will be supported? We have not made any final decisions on this issue. However, our software will likely require the very latest GPUs from ATI (especially now that the newest ATI GPUs support 32 bit floating point operations). Previous work of ours used NVIDIA GPUs as well, but we have now concentrated on ATI GPU's as they allow for significant performance increases for FAH over NVIDIA's GPU's (at least at the current generation). Our GPU cluster has 25 1900XT's and 25 1900 XTX's. We find a considerable performance increase of 1900XT's even over 1800XT's, due to the architectural differences between the R580 and R520 GPU's. Our code will run on R520's, but considerably more slowly than R580. We're very much looking forward to trying out R600's."
Intel on Mac (http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=14182&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75)
"Coming soon.... 2-3 weeks...
(typed from the intel mac devel box)
p.s. the v6 client won't be as elaborate as planned, but it will be universal. v7 will have all the goodies."

Keep us posted on what changes. It could be for more than just the Cinema Displays.

I plan on buying a new Intel iMac in the next week or so, and have a few questions.
1) Will the folding app run on the Intel chip fine? I figure it should, considering it's written for Mac OSX and not for individual processors, but just making sure.
2) More importantly. Since the iMac has a dual-core processor, will it run as if it's got two processors, or as one?
Anything else I should keep in mind? Will the iMac stay cool? My old Cube used to heat up like mad, but I figure that the Core Duo's have better heat management...
Thanks!

I didn't notice the user id of the thread starter xrhajj. I mistakenly got the idea from your d-link and ipod attachment statement that you wanted to transmit files with BT. I've been waiting to listen without wires for sometime now:) that's why I bought a T68:D sorry

I'll be interested to see how the MacJeep turns out! If I had a �2k-�5k sitting around I'd definately do it to my car!
What I'd really love is totally dashboard integration, dunno how a touchscreen panel would look like in my little corsa! What I have right now is the standard Vauxhall integrated stereo system, with buttons to control volume and change tracks on the steering wheel.
"Total Integration" would mean being able to use a touch screen, but also being able to use the buttons on my steering whee.... Although I would be just as happy removing the entire centre console and replacing it with a touch-screen! Some funky GPS would be great too :)
