  • I heard somewhere that the slots were particularly tight in the Macbook, and that this non-conductive stuff was being used to make installing the RAM easier. David

  • Sure, but all everyone is going to remember is something about Core and Duo. 2 and Duo meaning pretty much the same thing will confuse many.

  • It seems like many, if not all 24" iMacs have these issues. Many won't notice/care, but I did notice three problems with two machines: 1. 'Gurgling' noise coming from power supply when asleep/off but switched on at the wall. 2. Whine/buzz fro…
  • We all can quote at least five technologies that were a 'good idea' in the past, but never made it. I'd love it for your prediction of the Mac Pro kick starting EFI to be true, but as it only really makes a difference for the Mac Pro, and Vista see…
  • I thought that in spreadsheets, the Return key will confirm the entry into the cell and move on to the next cell below, whereas the enter key will accept and stay on the same cell. David
  • I don't know about you, but a Meleena special edition Zune doesn't sound that enticing... David
  • Let me be pedantic - it's actually a (1920x1200)-(1/3) - you might want to try one of those 'unsticking' programs/videos that flashes different colours quickly. David
  • Very irritating, I know - but they probably won't take it back because of just one dead pixel. I would say that if there is anything else niggling you, that now is your chance to sort it out, and getting a pixel perfect replacement would be a bonus…
  • My bet is the same as the minis - bump them to the next core duo up the ladder. I don't think the plan has ever been for the consumer portable to have the same CPU as the pro one, but that has been the case for years because of the G5 powerbook pro…

  • Ultimately, so far all the movie studios are not using HDCP, so I don't see what the problem will be with installing a Blu-Ray drive in the second drive bay and using your current non-HDCP monitor. David

  • More importantly, what is the quality of the analog line out? If it's good, it'll save me from having to get a standalone DAC. David
  • What changed?
