  • the last thing we need is for Apple to act as a record company. let them run the store. they do that well. let everybody else worry about dealing with the artists.
  • you can use pretty much any type of display with a G5 right out of the box. all include dual head video cards with one ADC and one DVI connector. they also include a DVI-VGA converter to hook up standard VGA displays. in short, you'll be able …
  • simple. e-book readers suck. high cost, crappy screens, high weight, etc. etc. books are not like music. they are an active medium, not a passive one. an mp3 player makes sense, becasue you'll often want to switch around what you're lsiteni…
  • Quote: Originally posted by CubeDude They standardize computers in education but not curriculims. Idiots. truly, this alwasy bugged me. the annoying trend for teaching "real world" skills. teaching a kid how to use MS Word does nothing,…
  • doomed to failure. just like everything else Buy.com has ever touched.
  • risk? it's hard to say. but once you load an image from a site, your IP address is in their logs. most likely, anyway.
  • actually, you're partly right. the grey background has a hex value of "#666666", a standard gray shade. the name of the gif is due to the fact that M$ uses many different background colors on their pages. the file name is simply to signify whi…
  • anybody have any firsthand info on this? if so...

  • Quote: Originally posted by BuonRotto Have any info on LivePicture? I'm not familiar with it. Live Picture was essentially an image editing app based on proxies. you would edit a low-res proxy of an image, while the app maintained a list of …
  • Quote: Originally posted by medialab It bothers me that they are adding so little new content to the store that this "exclusive" qualifies as news. There should twenty times this much new activity. When the store launched with 200,000 titles it…
  • if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around, does it make a sound? that's adobe premiere.
  • Quote: Originally posted by bauman Really? Isn't it just an extra command in the firmware that prevents the boot into OS 9? But, I don't know how this would fit into Apple strategy... no, there is a mobo difference between the two lines…
  • well, there's another reason why you can see everything all at once... so the EMPLOYEES can see everything and everyone at once as well. that's just damn smart retail.
  • Quote: Originally posted by GardenOfEarthlyDelights Didn't SGI make notebooks? I thought I saw a couple, in the 4 minutes I watched from the movie, Congo. well, i wouldn't call the SGI things notebooks. more like luggables. and they never off…
  • i think somebody ran across that a bit early. when you click "renew now" it just takes you to the .Mac front page. Apple hasn't offically announced anything yet, so just wait. besides, the absolute earliest anybody has to renew is October 06.
  • hmmm... for $40, i think i'd just buy another dock. thanks, but no thanks.
  • dreamweaver is fine and dandy, until you run into a problem and something doesn't work. then you're SOL. they tend to generate so much garbage code that it's tough to track down errors. and don't even get me started on imageready. i've alwa…
