There's a lot of speculation in that Wikipedia article and very few citations of credible sources.
And then there's this...
Well, there's this (http://www.snopes.com/rumors/radio.htm). And this quote: "Company president John Hogan told the Atlanta Constitution that the list was merely a suggestion, 'never a policy or a directive.'" from here (http://www.lipmagazine.org/articles/featwishnia_142.shtml). Anyway, whatever.

Someone just pointed out that the Mac Pro logic board has two SATA drive ports marked as ODD SATA. We think it is for an Optical Disc Drive SATA connection. Blu-ray perhaps?
http://www.powermax.com/articles_reviews/article.php?id=33
Look at the "Fans removed!" picture in the uper leftThose are the 2 SATA ports on the 5000 chipset that Apple didn't use (there are 6 SATA ports.)
Apple notes them as future expansion...In addition, the Mac Pro has two unpopulated 3 Gbps SATA buses for expansion.Since they have a connector use a PCIe cover plate and convert them to external use if you so wish.

Photobucket, Flickr, etc. None of them accurately show the color in this photo as I see it straight off of the card. It's a lot warmer before the upload. Oh well:cool:

This message is addressed to the folks that say the new Nano is just like the Mini.
The new Nano, while sharing similarities to the old Mini, is a newly designed iPod.
Check here for a comparison:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/firstlooks/
Need to scroll down 2/3-3/4 way down the page.
For clarification, I am not saying that the new Nano and old Mini do not share similarities. But look at the size and shape difference. Also realize the new Nano is flashed based with more space (8GB model) than the original Mini with HD. Additionally, better display, longer battery life, etc. Sure they share the same connector. That is a standard on all models except the Shuffle.
Personally I think that the new Nano looks great. Looking forward to colors at the 8GB model level sometime down the road.

I like the frozen mud spray in this. framing is a bit off because that red on the left is a flag, annoying. Oh, and it's soft too, so technically a pretty bad picture I suppose, but I still like it :) Reminds me of days as a kid in the park playing football and sliding 10m on a tackle.

I hate subscription models almost as much as I do data caps.
Agreed. And I think this model has it's pros and cons. More cons though. I personally wouldn't mind "renting" Premier Pro and After Effects when a clients asks for a project done with those tools. Or if I were collaborating and didn't want to have to work with EDLs and XML files for cross platform work.
But renting the entire CS would be crazy for anyone that gets consistent work and has their own rig to work on.
The only times I've upgraded my Adobe software has been when I desperately needed to. I stole up to CS1, bought CS2, needed CS3 to escape Rosetta and was given a copy of Design Premium CS4 from my job. I am looking to upgrade to the Master Collection but I may just wait for CS6, the just spend my time with it for 4 years.
Haha, people still actually buy software from Adobe. The Internet is your friend people.
Don't worry about it. The guys who can't afford to pay for it and pirate it are usually the folks who just want to "hoard" it rather than use it. If they had any talent to begin with, they'd be making enough money with the tool where the cost of it would be meaningless anyway. ;)
KnightWRX is correct . . . . 100% in fact.
Your logic is flawed, kid. You need the right tools, BEFORE you can make money with them.
You are wrong . . . 110% wrong in fact. You are so wrong in fact that it hurts. Tools can't teach you how to design. Any goof-ball can learn Photoshop and Illustrator, but it takes a designer to design.
I tell this to my students now that constantly whine about learning apps, but never getting the concepts down, never thinking abstractly, etc.
And as for pirating (which I was into HEAVY), it's actually far better to just buy the EDU version to learn. It's yours, it comes with less bugs, and I am sure you'll eventually want to get paid for your work yourself, so why not pay the company that's helping you get paid?
Please don't tell me that anyone that actually needs the CS apps can't plunk down $450-$1000 for the EDU version, but will shell out $3000 for an overpriced Mac Pro?

The security-through-obscurity myth of OS X has long been debunked. Do you know what the most used computer OS in the world is? Linux. And there are very, very few viruses for linux.
The rampant virus ecosystem is a flaw in Windows, not an inherent fact of all operating systems.
Macs have a decent market share and a very large mindshare, but yet are still virus free (though there have been a couple trojans that fizzled out).

From reading these and other forums for years we know how many Mac/Apple haters there are out there. Don't you think if they could create viruses etc. for Macs to make them look bad they would!!!???

This would indeed be awesome for people like me who quite like the 3D stuff and don't get headaches with it.
But if they were to do it they'd have to make sure EVERYTHING that was in 3D was also in 2D so people who can't see 3D/don't like it don't have to use it.
I'd have though iPad 3 would have been a bit soon though?
Maybe iPad 4?

Why 1394b at 800 Mbps when eSATA at 3000 Gbps is available?
Apple missed the boat on the external storage front here....
I'm guessing you mean 3Gbps...
Apple likes firewire, they made it. eSATA is nice, but you can't daisy chain the drives. That's why I like firewire so much.

Meh -- there was similar consternation with the original Mac, LaserWriter and PageMaker from the professional printers. And as then, it still is at the end of the day just a tool. The real talent is in how the tool is wielded.
I'll take it a step farther. How many people have access to a pen and paper? How many people write professionally for a living?
The really disrupting thing to 'established' professionals is that they have tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars tied up in their gear and when there are sudden drops in the price of gear that means their investment takes a dump as well. In the grand scheme of things it's inevitable but that doesn't mean anyone likes it when it happens.

Apple has dropped the ball here. Now that most laptops ship with the same chips, Apple can't claim the "Mhz Myth" or anything like that. They will have to keep up to speed, no pun intended.

2)localized social awareness: discover what music people around you are listening to/what sites they're surfing on, etc (opt-in), would be a nice leap in the social network area (where Apple is a bit stagnating)
I can't see many people opting into that, at least the latter part.

I just installed ClickToFlash (http://rentzsch.github.com/clicktoflash/) on all my Macs and my browsing experience has dramatically increased 1000% for the better. No more intrusive pop-up ads, distracting animations, and more importantly, long-loading, resource-intensive, useless, gimmicky intros and gadgets... unless I specifically ask for it.
That is a testament to exactly what's wrong with the internet.
Having to have an app to do that.
Shouldn't be there in the first place.
And Adobe perpetuates it.

I also think that whoever has the remaining rights to this material realise that its shelf-life is almost up. In 5-10 years time, the broad appeal of much of this material may have less relevance to the average consumer and its perceived market-value may be far less.
That's not a comment on the merits of The Beatles' music; just my view based on many of the comments I read by what I am assuming are younger music listeners.
I'm 43, many of these songs are ingrained into my memory from childhood, but the only Beatles albums I would possibly be interested in are maybe 2-4 remastered CDs; I'm not interested in downloads at all. But to be honest, I don't feel that by not currently owning them that my music collection is lacking at all.
I don't know about that. I'm young and I love the Beatles. They may decrease in popularity, but I don't expect them to go away ever. Also, it is still quite common for popular artists to cover Beatles songs. Just do a search for some songs on iTunes.
Beethoven and Mozart aren't the most popular artists on the charts today, but their music is still very well known and loved. I expect the Beatles to be known and loved in 100 years. Practically everybody would recognize the opening of Beethoven's fifth, even if they didn't know it was the fifth or that it was written by Beethoven. The Beatles may not reach that level, but their music will be around. They are the most popular artists of this century.

Then how do you turn it off? If it's a feature I should have the option to change it back to how it was. It's pretty annoying and I'm surprised no one else is complaining about it. I understand how some people might like it, but you would think there would be the option to decide which one you want. Similar to changing the rotation lock on the iPad to mute, some liked it and some didn't
The fix is switching to android..... Because with my HtC G2 I can't feel it vibrate or hear it ding when I get text messages unless it's sitting on a table.
