  • Quote: Originally posted by Mr Beardsley It doesn't actually use the second slot. The physical dimensions of the card are so large, that it blocks one of the PCI slots. Yeah, that is what I meant, just worded it incorrectly.
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacRonin Yup, it can run two 30" monitors through one card. Dual Link does not mean Dual Ports. Dual Link is the tech within a Single DVI connector on the video. Dual Link is part of the reason that this …
  • Quote: Originally posted by progmac As i understand it, Maya has basically abandoned their mac development, claiming it isn't profitable. It seems that Maya is more appropriate for hollywood-type stuff than modeling, but i could be wrong May…

  • For professional users, Softimage XSI and Maya Unlimited to name a couple. Granted Maya Complete accounts for a good chunk of Maya sales, unlimited is still missing. For the most part though, we have a lot of great applications.
  • This is not just with iTunes. OS X pretty much functions this way. For example, open and close a document in Word. Rename the file in the Finder. Now in your recent file list, click on the original file name. It will open you renamed file autom…
  • One for the time being. I wanna see how it works. I travel a lot and will love the hotel room wireless network!
  • iTunes 4.6 will be available sometime during the end of the week. Airport Express is something that I am totally stoked about. I know there are other products out there and you still have to manage your playlists in iTunes, but good things are t…
  • There have been a few really interesting suggestions. These are the things that peeked my interest so far. - Smart Mailboxes - HTML handling, not composing but forwarding - Much better Exchange support. This is to help switchers and users…
  • I am not sure if any of you use the Adobe Creative Suite, but Adobe now has a automatic update system within the Creative Suite that will update the applications through their own download manager. I am not sure if many companies will actually us…
  • Apple will be incorporating Rendezvous sharing for all their Pro. It is there in Shake and will be implemented slowly across the board.

  • I think the icons need a little work but it is a pretty nice browser. I like the draggable tabs! That is something I have been wanting in Safari since they put tabs in there.
  • I doubt it will be iTunes. Although iTunes now has movie trailers, those movie trailers are being cross promoted with movie soundtracks, so it is kinda logical to have them in there. If iTunes does end up having movies, it will change the sort of …
  • There are a few points that I want to bring up. Some have been mentioned and some need some more clarification. First off, Motion was developed by developers that worked on shake, rayz, and the first version of combustion. It is a sick amount o…
  • I don't know about any massive bugs in Word, but even the small things are annoying. There is a customize formatting palette option, and in that there is a slider for adjusting the transparency level of the Formatting Palette when it is inactive. …
  • I think it might just be you. Can you even access the Advanced Search page or does it not let you even do that? I was able to perform an advanced search with no problem. I was even able to access my Favorite Searches.

  • This is some pretty cool stuff. I can see somewhat of a future. It is a very tough thing though, because changing peoples habits is probably one of the toughest things to accomplish. No matter how intuitive it actually is, there is some serious…
