Yea - all I'm saying is that given the impossibilities that are there from the technical side, that we as users can get close to accurate colour. 15 years ago it really was a pig in a poke, a lucky dip with the crts These days we can get damn close.…

Yep - that's why we always monitor output with a broadcast monitor for video. It's why PS has had a CMYK preview for years for soft proofing. It's why fcp and other video editors have over on whites, chroma and under on blacks. It's why there's a h…

One of the other things I fooled around with was in Display prefs>Colour Tuning this display using expert mode, ahem, was giving my eyes a better result than in the past. Default gamma of 2.2 - but really a nice picture. Hit 1.8 and it blows out.…

Big fan here of Life Proof cases on iPads. Not on phones though. I take my iPad 2 to sea and use it as a chartplotter. This frees up my combo unit to use as a sounder only without having to hop between screens or use split screen. Pretty much bullet…

I had a flounder around on the base model 27 iMac. Beautiful display. Opened up Pages with the blank A4 template, changed it to A3 at 100%. Used the default of 11 point text. A little small for my old eyes but legible and smooth as. Changed the zoom…

@ Soli Yep - iPhone 6+ doesn't really challenge for screen real estate but it's kinda right on the cusp of where consumers will spend their money. I said before I love the form factor of the mini but I put a higher value on the size of a full iPad. …

lol. Good riposte ! I don't own a mini - but have used several. I really like their form factor and still do. They are limited though, because of the form factor, not the dpi. In airports they're perfect. On planes theyre not so good - Id rather wa…

OT - I was over in Brisbane just a couple of weeks ago. I'd never been to that mall at Chermside. F me that Apple Store there was rock'n. Seriously there around 50 blue shirts with customers about 5 - 8 to the genius. Just amazing. Per sq m, easily …

"Have they done a Yosemite hack yet? I too have a 1,1 as my desktop, upgraded it to 10GB RAM and put a GTX550Ti in it this year. Runs everything I throw at it, still just on 10.7 though." Yep - Theyve been busy ! Mavs hacks have been out for over a…

ahh - thought it was something like that. I'm going to hack my MacPro 1,1 to run Yosemite next week. There's still some life in the old girl yet !

yea - that's the missing link right there Soli. It would make it so easy. I put in a pos system for a client not so long ago using magento for shop sales. Used ecwid for another client. Still have to Pfaff around with card readers. It works but a l…
