this is definitely NOT a leopard issue. i'm not saying it hasn't gotten worse since the leopard upgrade, but i had this EXACT problem last year with my brand new MBP under tiger. i had to take it to the apple store 4 times and they sent it in twice …

I'm currently a film major and have been working with my glossy screen on my MBP, and I absolutely love it. I haven't found a significant color difference, and when you're working on a computer for an extended period of time during editing, its nice…

theres an even easier way to do it than that. theres a program called Handbrake that lets you rip a dvd file right into an mpeg-4 video. it gives you some nice options and is fairly easy to figure out. when it finishes up, you can use quicktime pro …

from what i've heard in recent months/years, magnets do a lot less to cpmputers than they used to. they used to do irreparable and very serious damage to hard drives and screens and such, but i've heard with technology improvements that its a lot le…

i got mine yesterday morning! it wasn't supposed to get here til today, but it came a day early, which was FANTASTIC. i love it. i got the lower end version with glossy screen and 160 gig hard drive. it was scheduled to ship in 3-5 days and it shipp…

bwahaha, i just ordered my new mbp! i went for the base model with glossy screen and 160 gig hard drive. with student discounts, it wasn't worth $500 dollars for the minor speed bump, extra graphics, and gig of ram. as much as i would love to have t…

i would also suggest the seagate drive. i have a 160 gb seagate in my pc right now, and it works fantastic. one of the great things about seagate is that the drives come with a 5-year warranty, where others only come with 1-3 years. so if something …

i did actually read an article in electronic gaming monthly about how apple was going to do this very thing. i was skeptical, but it seemed interesting. i have no idea where they got their info from, but it seems like it wasn't too reliable, since t…

i'm definitely buying one within days of it coming out. right now i'm using the PC i built last winter for my college stuff, and its a pain in the ass. a) its obviously a windows machine b) it takes up a fricken huge portion of my desk c) i neeeeed …

wow, thats pretty sad. a lot of my friends brag about having that, i'll just have to show them this now...

A friend of mine (well, i suppose boyfriend of a friend.... but o well) is one of the few people from Red Hat who is working on this project. He was telling my family about it this summer when we visited them in boston. anyways, the low price isn't …

holy frickin crap. didn't they just update the imac like 4 months ago?? i'm not sure anyone really saw this coming. the addition of PCI-e and DDR2 ram are good signs for the future, and the faster processors point to faster processors on the PMs to …

it may be too late, but to me, it seems like its simply a matter of it not finding the system folder. thats what the blinking question mark means... so i would think you could just boot from the cd, wipe the HD if needed through disk utility, then r…

there are hacks for idvd in previous versions to run third-party hardware, but i dunno about v.5. it may be easier and cheaper just to buy an external drive. i like lacie, personally, and they're reasonable, but if you think you can forge ahead on y…

Quote: iThink that the revA iMac uses so-dimms/ notebook memory PC66. iBet you could use up to pc133 ram in there and it would work fine.and if thats the case you could put plenty of ram in it. But then it has been a long time since iMessed with a …

to me, this kind of confirms the speculation that the high-end computers will be updated last. yeah, everyone basically accepts that as fact now, but technically nothing has been "officially confirmed." but with replacement parts via the 3-year app…

can't you just type some random, dangerous code into terminal so that the computer won't boot? every article about terminal i've read gives warnings about typing the wrong thing... so it won't technically "break" the system, but to the untrained eye…

i mentioned this in a previous thread, and i'm sure other people have noted it, but making a G5 mini completely contradicts the computer's original purpose. by introducing a computer in the 600-700 dollar range or whatever with a G5 would steal sale…

well, i think the mighty mouse WAS intended for default bundled shipping, but it seems likely that they wanted to test the market, see how it would do, and also allow time to find any bugs or things that people get pissed off about. i dunno how much…
