  • Quote: Originally posted by bikertwin But think about it. By its very design, it should scale well. On the one hand everyone is complaining that they don't have quad G5s with dual 30" monitors. Well, dual 30" monitors is a *lot* of pixels to p…

  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross Let me tell you how they demo'd it. All of the machines they had around the booth (actually around the booth on both sides. The center was used for the demo and classroom.) were PM's. I didn't ask which, bu…
  • Just a nit, but the GM Building isn't between 57th and 58th street, but between 58th and 59th streets. I was pretty amused when I saw the Post move it a whole block south, since they really should know better. FWIW, the scaffolding is up to frame…
  • Bizarre. It's not as though the cat isn't out of the bag. There was a whole article in the New York Times about it on March 2, going so far as to describe the sample 40' cube that Harry Macklowe had erected between midnight and 6 AM so he could visu…
  • I think it will take a little over six months. The landlord is telling us the Fifth Avenue side won't be done until October 15. I've rarely seen work like this finished early, so I wouldn't be surprised if it pushed into mid-November. I'd think Than…
  • Here's a link to what the building owner is planning: Macklowe Properties

  • I've used Macs since 1984 (my brother bought one of the first ones when he was in college -- back when they came with an extensive animated tutorial and System 1.0). While I've had my ups and downs over the years, this is the first time I've gotten …
  • You mean to tell me that your friend works at Charles de Gaulle airport and opened a sealed box he was supposed to be unloading? And he still works there? I smell a fish.
  • If you rendered to DV (which is FCP's default codec) and you view the video without "high quality" enabled it will look blurry just as you described. There's an option in the Final Cut Pro preferences to show DV video in high quality even on slower …
  • I almost hate to do this (and I'm really not trying to be a troll), but has anyone looked at the Microsoft Research site recently? I don't think it's fair to accuse them of "ripping off" other people any more. Their focus on fundamental, blue sky, r…

  • ZoomView is a major improvement, no doubt. In fact, I've got it hooked up to a PowerMate, so when you spin the wheel it zooms in and out. It's actually quite impressive. I don't have any real-world feedback from my wife yet. We'll see if it works…
  • The areas you mentioned that are configurable in Windows (menus, title bars, task bar, and icon labels) are exactly the areas that need customization in OS X. The content of windows in most applications can be enlarged. E-mail software, web browsers…
