How does the MP3/M4A sound played in iTunes compared to played in Quicktime and opened in Audacity?
Well this is interesting. I opened all three (QuickTime, Audacity, and GarageBand) to compare the quality of one song. Now, all of a sudden, GarageBand plays the song normally without altering any sounds. You'll have to take my word on the fact that at one point it did convert the song and remove bass, which is strange, but it now works as it should! :D
Thank you for all your help, everyone!

After reading that, it makes me want my mac that much more even though I've been dieing and loosing sleep the last few days waiting for my new ibook. I used my brothers powerbook a few weeks ago and it sold me instantly. So now HOPEFULLY tomorrow if im lucky I'll get it but i doubt it. The best part about it is that I've been using crummy windows machines for all my life and it will feel good to finally use a mac.

Say what you will about the Zune - I had one 5 years ago and it did something mindblowingly advanced that the iPod/iPhone/iPad still cannot do - wireless sync.

Exactly. Not exactly a shocker considering the considerable price drop to some reasonable figures.
Not just the price drop, but performance improvements as well. I had an orig. MBA, and it was a piece of s***. My new MBA is a pretty nice machine. Nice enough I sold my iPad to finance it.

Hi everyone,
I have Logic Express on my Macbook Pro but now I need a keyboard/speakers etc to be able to use it. I have no idea what to get - to be honest I want the cheapest possible just to get started as money is tight at the moment.
I'm a keyboard player so eventually I'd like a keyboard with weighted keys but it doesn't have to be to start with.
So: what keyboard? speakers? anything else?

Hi, I will not be camping out, however I am disabled and wonder if their nwill be a (special Line) for people that have disabled (PLACARDS). Also, does anyone know how long the pre reservation lines will be and how fast they will move, base on like (person #43) who is in line? Also, my reservation says 7 am, but could there be like a 1000 customers in the reservation line at 7 am? I'm just trying to get a (CLEAR UNDERSTANDING) of how long I will be in line because of my disability. Please let me know from past experiance.
thanks, purplestigers:apple:

... of capturing - storing - the raw stream of h.264/mpeg2 hd movie data on your harddrive and editing it with any HD capable movie application, I would say yes.
But playback, no way, if it is 1080i/p material. For that you need a G5 with at least 2GHz just to be on the save side. 720p is possible without framedrops on any G4 faster than 1Ghz, I think, with lots of RAM included.
Encoding DV into h.264 is taking ages right now with pure processor speed, even in PC land.
E.g., I myself can capture mpeg2 transport streams from my cable tv via ethernet to my iBook G3 500 Mhz without any problems. I can edit it, store it, transfer it, but playback is always choppy as hell on that machine. Only if I transfer it to DVD, I get perfect playback, but only because Apples DVD player app does use hardware accelerated mpeg decoding from the graphic card.

Bring it on. I need something new to replace my 3G 40GB iPod (last of the black and white screen). I wish the new iPods had a setting for that, so you could make all the menus black and white and only have photo and video play in color.
Anyway getting a black 2G Nano next month. But that's for the gym and snowboarding!!! And wouldn't you know it, it's snowing today!

I can't believe it!
I've just read though 100+ post after finally watching the Stevenote and I can't believe only two other people have commented on Steve's shirt!! A buttoned shirt in place of the turtle-neck, why?
In related news why does anybody button a shirt all the way without a tie? (Why do we even have ties anyway??) and what posseses a man to wear jeans with no belt?? Women can get away without wearing a belt, just, but if jeans or trousers have belt loops forchristssake wear a ***king belt. Wrong, wrong, wrong!

If you want to write a 2D game and you're familiar with Objective-C then I think you want to be using the cocos2d framework. I've found "Learn iPhone and iPad Cocos2D Game Development" to be a valuable resource.
thanks for your help seepel, yes I have searched and have seen cocos2d is very good for 2d games and also had seen this book and go buy it:)
and about this book? IOS Learning Game Programming: A Hands-On Guide to Building Your First iPhone Game
Anyone know?
good?
should I buy? to understand cocos2d I buy a book or just this? Learn iPhone and iPad Cocos2D Game Development

both working and finsifhed look crappy. I think your right with the workflow idea though, just have to try and not spend time fromatting in word also...

I am looking for some good headphones because my cheap in ears have broken. Again. I heard skullcandy's are good. I found both of them for 28 dollars and 32 dollars on overstock.com. I plan on listening to rap and hip hop and techno with a little rock. Which one should I get? Opinions?

It's true for any 3rd party RAID controller. It's also true for software based configurations (SATA or SAS ports + software and system resources).
Setting the boot device has nothing to do with it.
Boot Camp + RAID = DO NOT WORK. Period. :(
So keep Windows and OS X on a single disk each (or BC a single SSD attached to the ICH), which isn't a problem. Remember, stripe sets don't improve random access at best, and can actually create a performance penalty over a single disk when using SSD's.
You seem to have misunderstood me. Sorry, should have been more specific. This time I wasn't asking about booting off a RAID0 etc. volume or installing both OS on a RAID volume as I understand boot camp does not work with RAID volumes.
I am just trying to wrap my head around why if I would have 2x SSD's (one with Win7, the other OSX) connected to the Areca controller in pass through mode (not raid) would I not be able to select the drive to boot from upon startup or in the worst case from within OSX through the startup disk utility?
Or say if I have one SSD connected to the backplane SATA2 ports via backplane cable and the other to the Areca controller in pass through mode, what methods will be available to me for switching between the operating system I wish to boot from ? e.g. Can I call up a boot menu holding the option key during startup and select to boot from the SSD with Windows 7 or must I first log into OSX, open startup disk utility and select the SSD with Win 7 as the drive to startup from next time? or is this managed through bootcamp?
As for mounting the two SSD's and connecting power to them what is your opinion on the MaxUpgrade kits like the below, they don't have any pics etc. Do their power cables take power from the backplane cable and splice off into multiple SATA power? if so do you think there is data cable to connect the one SSD to onboard sata2:
MaxConnect for Mac Pro [2009-2010] Models
Disk Drive Mount (CNC Machined Aluminum) for the Four 2.5 inch SATA drives in the Optical Bay
iPass /MiniSAS Cable from the PCIe Controller to the Optical Bay 1 meter - to the Areca
Power Cables for the Four 2.5 inch SATA Drives
Mac Pro's with Third Party RAID Cards (with MiniSAS Connector)
Is the battery backup module T113 worth getting for
the Areca 1880 to protect against power failure or is it not that vital
if one has a good UPS? I suppose an UPS does not protect against
internal PC failures, accidental shut downs etc. But the Mac Pro
seems to be a reliable machine.
