I assume that you have the Mono set. If so, you have the better one (other than missing Abbey Road and Let It Be. As has been said many times they are better mixes and the differences are fairly significant in places. Due to the differences, it's easier to argue that you need the both.
I like the Mono set packaging, with the replica sleeves, but the stereo set packaging is also very good with better sleeve notes and the mini documentaries. The box set comes with all the documentaries on one DVD which is better than watching them individually on the CD's
Go on, you know you want to. :)
I don't have either, but I was wondering which set was better, overall I guess

I'm going to be pissed if there's no new iPhone.
However, I don't think Apple cares about me.
Well, you have over two months to work yourself up into a full-scale snit.
iOS 5 will be soooo good it will make the iPhone 4 feel like an iPhone 5.

Sorry, i'm being a bit extreme, but i wish Apple would hurry up and do something.
PCs are the competition and releasing an update of a product every six months, while the competition is constantly updating, isn't going to work for them for much longer.
I am shocked to hear you say that "Apples exists to compete with PCs and one of, if not THE major element of that is having the best/fastest hardware!" Apple exists to make money, and part of that means competing with pcs. But again, the motivation is the need to make money, not to compete with pcs for the sake of competing with pcs. Not all users want more power, ease of use is more important than some. I merely suggested that this is a complex problem that requires serious marketing, not simple, uni-variable analysis (eg. faster= more market share). WHere do you consider all the factors of buying a computer? This is why you can never say which computer is "best" At work my pc is tons better than a mac, because I can run ProEngineer (a solid modeling program). At home, my mac is best, because of imovie, itunes, the os, and .mac, etc
Why do you want apple to "hurry up and do something"? You can buy a pc if you want to.

I really hope Apple makes some changes, anyone who has developed or listren to developers knows what a stupid process this is to get an app approved.
What will actually make developers happy? Free run? I respect Apple's right to try to keep their platform within the guidelines that the determine. Apple isn't perfect but the Facebook developer did the right thing... He tucked his tail between his legs and ran... It's cool when people give up. (sarcasm intended) He's a developer, he's gonna deal with different platforms with different rules ALL THE TIME! Soon the internet will start "locking down," then what will he do? I think the Facebook app could be a lot better, I'm not claiming to be able to code it and what-not but the apps shortcomings can't be all linked to Apple's approval process. That's what I think this developer should have focused on: making the app as amazingly good as possible within the "confinements" that are in place.

more MP's ≠ better photos.
Yes, and that's why Apple is going to increase MPs from 5 to 8 but, obviously, it's "not about the specs".

For those that do not believe in a higher power or absolute truth, man, in and of himself, is the highest order of existence/being/evolution, etc.. etc.
Here, you are developing a misconception based on a religious perspective. Some unbelievers may see the human race as the "highest order", but this mostly arises from exposure to religious types who expound man as the last step shy of god (or perhaps just under the angelic host or whatever). Take theology away and humans are just one more species of animal. I think a great many unbelievers view humans as part of nature, not at the top of it, a "quintessence of dust" rather than a "paragon of animals".
Man's capacity for altruism, self sacrifice, and compassion are seen as proof of his independence from God. "See what we can accomplish on our own... we don't need God." In this manner all of man's action is an act of self glorification and self reliance.
"... we don't need God" is a statement that makes no sense. I can understand how you see it, that not accepting the existence of the deity represents a failure of character, because to you its existence and presence is obvious, self-evident and overpowering. Yet, without that view, "self glorification" is not meaningful, because we do not consider the "glorification of god" to have any relevance to what we do. We do what needs or wants to be done and we look at the world from ground-level, not through the lens of "cloud-dwellers". It is what it is.
However, on a spiritual level, I must recognize that scripture teaches us that our "good deeds" are worthless if our heart is not right with God...The Bible does not teach a theology of works. It's not about what you do, it's about your relationship with Christ.
Again, as I always say, this is ultimately an issue of faith and I completely understand that it can be hard to comprehend for some. And it is a subtle nuance to understand the difference between doing something because you adhere to a set of principles (right vs. wrong) and doing it because it is an outflow of your relationship with God.
No, I have been there, and I clearly understand, by remembering what it was like. I can honestly say, from experience, that what you are describing is indistinguishable from being delusional.
I'm very familiar with projection. I can assure you that is not what's happening here. I'm merely presenting what God has communicated to us through the Bible. Could it be that your skepticism and cynicism is a projection of something within you? Why don't you come over he and lie on this couch and tell me about your mother... ;)
I am not skeptical, that implies doubt. Road apples have a distinct smell, my lack of belief is the opposite of a shortcoming. My "cynicism" is based on observation and experience. I know what to expect from most religious people, as far as the context of their theology pertains to me or my interactions with them. These are not personal issues that require any kind of therapy.
This is why we have a problem. Both of us think the other's view is faulty. The unbeliever, however, would be ok with leaving the believer alone, except, in too many cases, the believer feels a need (or is directed by doctrine) to change the unbeliever's mind.
Well, first of all, "clerics" are not required for us to interpret scripture or have a relationship with God... Scripture stands alone as authoritative regardless of how I "feel" about it or what I "want" it to say. If I'm seeking to find an "exception" in scripture to justify my own position then my heart is not in the right place.
What you see in the text is what you believe to be there. What you have been taught is there. Yet, other sects, variants and opportunists find alternate meanings that serve their needs. This is history, past and present, for many centuries and over many belief sets (not just christian) and some of it has been extraordinarily ugly.
Unbelief, by contrast, does not get employed for justifying anything. How can it? There is no canon to point to, no heartfelt agnostic tenets to stir up, no sacred things to defend.

The iPhones 5 MP camera is better then the competitors 8 MP cameras. If they are on the same quality level with a new 8 MP camera it will be better then the competitors 12 MP camera.
Megapixel numbers are not as important as most people think.
People who are only in love with specs don't want to give the ipad its due.
The device works, because it is optimized for itself, i.e. hardware and software specs are integrated really really well.
It has a great price point and stressing over camera quality is ridiculous, as it is not a camera! Will it be better, yes in the next generation when availability and prices of 8 MP or more fit into what Apple wants to pay for it.
People also don't want to recognize that an ipad is not a laptop. We are IMO about 50% there, but until reliable voice recognition technology replaces a real keyboard, we have to wait.
I always have to laugh when I read about the next ipad killer.
The last ipad killer was actually the ipad2, and that with such a weakly underpowered camera in it.

2. You don't understand wives.

1. You and your wife must fight a lot and you just do it anyway.
2. You rule your house with an iron hammer

1. You have a relationship where you guys have enough money that neither one of you have to worry about negotiating purchases.
2. Your wife gets whatever, whenever she wants.
3. You only make one purchase for yourself ever 2-3 years.
Trust me in a marraige, it is never as easy as "I am going to buy this." Sometimes to keep the peace, you just gotta say "yep" and do what she wants.

Get married, and own a home or have a kid or two you would will figure it out.

Reading the reactions to iPod in 2001 were hilarious. It shows how far we've come in our trust of Apple, I'm not speaking as an expert. Now it seems like if Steve Jobs breathes we'll buy it. I am sad to see the iPod go I have 120gb and may have to upgrade before they go. I use every kb of mine.

It would be cool if they allowed made a touch screen iMac and allowed you to run your iOS apps in OS, like with the simulator included in iPhone SDK.
But if OSX and iOS merge, I am leaving apple forever. That would be suicide.

There seem to be varying reports of the serial numbers affected, and Apple's site seems dead right now. I'm hoping my battery IS affected, because I was getting close to ordering a new battery, as my year-and three month old battery is down to 25% of it's original capacity after 440 load cycles.
The site was up briefly and claimed 4-6 weeks for the new battery to ship. That's a LONG time to go without a battery.
don't worry 'bout that. they will send you a new one and then you return the battery - at least they did it this way with my battery..

On the last page of Part 12 I posted a setup that is located in my home office (mainly used by my wife). Different room.
I decided to update my own office (kind of) with a brand spanking new iMac which is replacing my late 2009 Macbook Pro.
Old Specs Macbook Pro 17":
2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM
500GB + 80GB SSD ( took it out before selling)
Nvidia 9400M + 9600M
New Specs iMac:
2.93Ghz i7
8GB RAM
1TB Hard Drive + (still want my 80GB SSD inside this baby, but difficult to do so!)
ATI Radeon HD 5750 1GB
So far, so good.
The speakers are also still there, but these are not shown in the picture.
This is an old/new comparison.
Mind the quality, but my iPhone 4 broke (will be replaced) on me so I used an old iPhone first generation.
I kept the iPad 64Gb Wifi.
Feedback is always welcome. :D
Just curious.. why would you put the iMac inside the window and block it entirely? Seems a bit odd
