Actually I think that all intel macbooks ( including pro) 's airport card is 802.11g and draft N... the problem is that they cant advertise it, because n is still in draft status at IEEE... so you can't really say hey this is an N... because N doesn't really exist as a satandard ( making a standard is a lenghty process takes about 5 to 6 years for the whole process...) if anyone has a draft n wifi router, please try and check the conection speed on you mactel macbook.. would be good to know if this is just a rumor, or if its really a fact.. i know i read it before buying my blackbook.. but alas.. i dont have a n draft router...
When the Airport Extreme came out it was before G was approved, they later flashed it up to the standard because it was close.
There are many Pre-N routers out there. All you have to say is 'Pre-N' and you're good to go.

I'll buy that for a dollar! :D
I will buy the MBA when it gets a backlit keyboard. I really like the small, light form but need to be able to see the keys in a dark room (or stage). The sales guy at the Apple store just told me to "crank the screen brightness and tilt the display down to light the keys". :D Yeah, uh no, the last thing I need in the dark is a brighter screen.
Also, it would be nice to get Thunderbolt I/O and (really dreaming now) higher capacity/cost effective SSD storage.
I think when you get a decent amount of SSD capacity without a huge price jack MBA sales will jump even more.

And I won't spend extra money on another handheld when I have the iphone and it does have enough games that entertain me (in depth games too though maybe not the latest and greatest).
That's a personal choice. Your definition of in depth is subjective. Mileage may vary.
I think you miss the problem here isn't that people will pick the iphone over the handheld for gaming. Of course if they are just picking a gaming device (and they don't already have an iphone or android), they are going to pick the one designed for gaming that the games they want are coming out for. But that people who might have picked up a handheld for gaming find that the iphone or android they already have is good enough for portable gaming (in some ways better. For example since it is my cellphone, my iphone is with me everywhere so gaming anywhere I want, which is the biggest point of a handheld, it is also smaller and I don't have to carry all the games with me, they're all on my iphone so they all go with me wherever I go. Yeah, there are trade offs, on some games the controls are not as good, but here is the thing. They are good enough, at least not bad enough that I feel I need to buy another handheld just to get the better controls).
That's fine, your not/no longer a gamer. What you do is called killing time.
And here is the bigger problem, smartphones attract enough business away like this and have less people using the actual handhelds, they also attract developers. You might find new games being made for the smartphones that people can't get for the other devices as there is more money in the smartphones... and in the end, the best gaming device is the one that has the games ;).
A sad possibility. Touch will never equal tactile feedback.
Nintendo and Sony need to prove that their devices are so good that it is worth buying them *as*well* as the smartphone the person already has. Nintendo is trying with 3D. Sony is trying to have console like games in a small portable device (I'll say I'm much more interested in Sony's offerings. But I've never been impressed with nintendo's game selection except when I was really young. I really do not get the Mario love here or why people think Mario is any better than Angry Birds, they're both (at least traditional mario scrollers and the racing games) cheesy time wasters that I wouldn't say have all that much depth).
I highlighted your problem in red. This is why IOS games are good enough for you. You've lost your gamers edge. This statement alone is proof of your non gaming affiliation. Since you imply that you are 'older" perhaps you attention span for the more in depth games is just not there anymore.
Compare Angry Birds to Mario? Cheesy?

thanx jiminaus,
when i typed
which perl
/opt/local/bin/perl
i tried to update that with macports, macports failed to do that.
so now,when i type
which perl
/usr/bin/perl
and when i type "/usr/bin/perl -V" it says that "useithreads=define"
so we are ok now.
but, the command "perl -V" instead of "/usr/bin/perl -V"
it says /opt/local/bin/perl: No such file or directory
so, could you please tell me how i can point to the perl implementation installed in /usr/bin/perl instead of returning me the macports location ?
thanx a lot

The company will concentrate on putting Zune software onto mobile phones such as those running Microsoft's Windows operating system...
So, now Zune software is gonna compete with Windows Phone 7? :confused:

you don't need to have cablevision subscription to use this? i.e. being a customer
You do have to have an account, therefor a customer is required. OR if you have friends/family and you could use their account.

At least in this case, they got the data from the operator as they clearly said it. IIRC they got about a month worth of texts because they said there was something like 500 SMSs between the suspect and the victim. And yes, in this case the actual content of the SMS was stored as well, not just the date and number.
Again, this is Finland, not US, but I would still say they store them for more than a few days.
I understand that any retained data can be subpoenaed, but this would contradict the notion that text messages are not stored for more than a few days. Like you mention, it's two different countries being compared. Ever hear of a similar case in the U.S.?

I wish Apple would revert the green timeline to the old transparent one. I know the green has been here since Lion's first build, but still. It's pretty ugly.
I wish they'd get rid of the stupid star-field background

there is no buttons in finder to copy, cut & paste! :( I can not find them ! where they are ?
You can find them in the "edit" menu in Finder. OS X doesn't allow you to "Cut & Paste" files, however, so the Cut option may be greyed out.
If you want to move files, best way is to drag them or CMD+drag them to move to another drive

I dunno. I tried to add something to the wiki and it didn't work right so I got scared and deleted what I added. I'm just gonna stick to editing wikis and not starting new topics.
Hey.... someone put up a page titled "Arport Extreme" and I moved it to "Airport Extreme." Looks like it automatically redirects. So we could do the same thing with "The Dock" and "The Trash," no?
EDIT: Okay, fixed "Dock", "Trash", and all the pages linking to them.

its a high school based server...the classes would lose all their work
Sarcasm?
Is that important data now or not?
If it is, backup the server before updating to 10.6! And even after the update, keep backing up the machine if you want the classes to keep their work if your hard drive or machine dies.

"(edit) in the import settings it is set as ''Store files: in the aperture library'' "
Which means that Aperture has created masters in it's own library; and is not referencing your original files for it's masters.
Personally I do both; I have Aperture manage in the Aperture library - but I still keep all my original files as backups - AND I have backups of those on yet another drive.

6 Pack???!!! That's CHEAP!
I charge at least a case of 12 or a nice bottle of Rum.
haha most of my friends are either students and/or in bands. So a 6-pack is about all they can afford. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice sick pack I charge (no poverty $1 for me!)

I posed this on another forum and got nothing back...I'm hoping someone here knows how to remedy this problem. Thanks! :D
This is a question I've been meaning to ask for a while. My internal modem, when I first got my iBook, made the typical dial and handshake sounds when I would dial a connection. I can't remember when it stopped, but it no longer makes a sound when it is dialing.
I'm running an iBook G4 12" 1.2 GHz with 768 MB RAM.
Does this have anything to do with a modem script (I read something about this and it mentioned a modem script, but I don't think it solved the issue for the other user). I checked the settings for the modem in the Network preference pane. The radio button for Sound is set to On.
It might have happened to me after the Tiger upgrade as well. I'm not sure. Could it be a Tiger issue?
Any help anyone can provide is appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm not aware of any income "tax" on your accumulated wealth. Any such tax would not be an "income" tax.
The only thing you've succeeded in doing is proving that it's YOU who knows nothing about taxation. How about I list just ONE tax on accumulated wealth?

I would wait. ...
2.4Ghz vs 2.0Ghz in the same line of processors isn't that big a CPU boost. the 2011 Mini will likely involve a move to Sandy Bridge which is a big CPU boost.
If the new mini gets sandy bridge it will be 50 percent faster then your machine at a minimum, more like 80 or 90 percent faster.
