  • personally, i think the major weakness of all traditional tablets is the screen. it's glass which means the possibility of expensive breakage. combine that shortcoming with the size requirements of a standard keyboard, HD & traditional I/O and e…
  • what i most want in safari downloads is the ability to name things before they download. a close 2nd is a way to see the progress of the download without having to locate the download windows. a bar graph down on the status bar would work just fine.…
  • Dj mixing is neat....if you're a DJ. personally, i'd be much more enthusiastic about the addition of basic CD label printing from itunes. that's something i can use with each and every disc i burn....
  • another idea..... if you have the latest version of itunes, go to preferences and check "use error correction when reading audio CD's". you'll find it under the IMPORT prefs. this feature is specifically there to deal with certain forms of co…
  • here are mine...in no particular order 1 ) aquisition - first rate P2P gnutella client 2 ) konfabulator - run free widgets to do just about anything 3 ) macjanitor - run OSX's built in maintenance with an easy GUI 4 ) clutter - it controls itu…
  • if you have the additional space, the cheapest thing is to move all your files. initialize the drive and put the files back. you'll remove the fragmentation for free....that it, if you have the time, space and patience. i don't know of a cheaper…
  • you'll find that your encoding settings can have a large effect on speed. if you're using Variable Bit Rate compression and filtering frequencies below 10hz...it can have a cumulative effect. even the kind and complexity of the music you're ripping …
  • personally, i can't stand those dell "intern" spots. what a bunch of snotty, pretentious bootlicking kids. just when i thought dell couldn't invent anything worse than the "stephen" character, they did. ugh.
  • steve the one thing apple can't be is boring. remember amelio?
  • yeah, it's great...until you realize that the box is loaded with DRM software that makes it impossible to take recorded tv programs and move them off the computer. yeah, it's integrated...but it's hobbled, and who wants that?

  • something else to consider....the price of a mac has everything to do with unit cost and margin. margin will have to remain more or less stable for now, because apple makes the bulk of its money on hardware. where there is realy room for improvement…

  • the imac has never been a gamer's machine...it's a machine that occasionally plays games. i can't speak to the performance of one board over another, but they've increased the VRAM by 400% and the new card draws 600% more polygons. isn't that enough…
  • i agree the top end is most desireable, but actually, i think the lowline has a lot to recommend it. it has the same processor & the same hard drive as the midline. the only two things it lacks are pro speakers and DVD playback. for $60 …

  • a little TIVO counterpoint.... i agree replay TV has some great features...but those features have generated the hatred and illwill of the entertainment industry... and sonicblue has multiple lawsuits to prove it. TIVO has taken a compromise p…
  • i like replay's features....and certainly i like the way that they've stood up for consumer's rights....however, the nail that sticks up is often the first to get pounded down. the RIAA has already hit sonicblue with lawsuits concerning commercial s…
  • i believe, if i'm not mistaken, that there is a way to "merge tracks" in itunes so that they play seamlessly. perhaps someone else can elaborate on the details...
