Thank you all for the info. I've been rendering some 3D landscape movies and doing some AVI conversions for the past 6 days and so far no problems. It's also why "sleeping it" is not an option, most of the time it's working on something. But it's no…

I considered a Mini for a while but then found a deal on a used iMac and picked that up instead. But no matter how "cool" the Mac is, I can't seem to get away from my AMD PC. It's gotten to the point where I do all my Torrenting, movie watching via …

I use Firefox on both my PC and the Mac and refuse to waste time on anything else. I'm surprised that Apple would push Safari onto Windows users. Is that a first step to drafting PC users onto Macs?

Didn't the question of his successor come up during yesterdays share holders meeting? I also think that Jobs is the brains and the balls that got Apple to where they are now but there must be someone there that Jobs has been grooming just in cas…

Wow, you can open a company just patenting random crap and then sue people once they actually have a product doing it? I love this country. Their website really does just say they 'hold patents' and nothing else. It's impressive. I also like …

Well, Netlfix got one more customer out of their change. I've got a 40" LCD TV hooked up to a WinXP machine and I'm going to try this Watch Now feature. I was also getting tired of Blockbusters "Long Waits" and I'm hoping this won't be an issue for …

OK. So given that we 'know' what format is going to rule next, how long does a standard DVD have left? 5 more years? less/more?

Well, all I know is that my Toshiba HD-A3 player has some sort of handshake issues with my Sony Bravia LCD and it's pissing me off. I chose HD just before Christmas as I was looking for an upconverting player and thought that it was OK to spend just…

I had to exchange my 5th gen. iPod video after a day of ownership due to some video playback problem. I got it as a present in White and I did not have a receipt but the Geniuses behind the counter agreed it was a dud. When exchanging I asked if I c…

I got a yearly subscription to a magazine I've read a few times, MacFormat.

Isn't this simply because the common folk that buy Macs today that get it cause it's easy to use and it just works at the same time lack the technical knowhow on downloading illegal content off of the web? Or could it be that all of Torrent or ot…

Hi, I'm also new to my iMac and have been looking for a reliable torrent solution for Mac as well. I found that all of the above mentioned software gets throttled by my ISP. I noticed it after no matter what file I chose the download would hover …

Sure enough it was as simple as installing Mac OS drivers. Coming from Windows that's nothing new but I haven't had to do a thing for the iMac so that had me a little spoiled. Works perfect now. Thanks for the help.

I went with Kingston 2x 1gig Dual Channel memory and it works just great. Thanks for the reply.
