What should Apple make next?
iPhone Landline? iMirror - although there's something like that called the Cybertecture mirror...
Here's a mockup of a touchscreen lock that would be pretty sick. even if it'd be something that prioritized looks over safety..

So Im a freelance Editor/Motion Graphics guy with no real understanding of RAID Controller Cards, or how they work.
As of right now I have three 1TB drives inside my Mac Pro, RAIDed together (stripe 0) using the OS. No Raid card.
The drives are all 7200rpm from varying manufacturers. (not sure if this matters.)
My questions is; is it beneficial for me to get a RAID card to control these drives vs. leaving it to the OS to handle? Any suggestions for me?
Thanks.

3 drives in RAID0 ? Yikes, anyone of them goes and your machine is out of action. RAID0 offers no fault tolerance as no drives in the array share parity info or are mirrored.
You would most certainly see a benefit in a hardware RAID solution, especially if you are going to switch to a RAID level with some redundancy, like RAID5 or RAID10. Also a true hardware RAID takes the processing load off your processors and memory.
If on a budget you could go with RAID-Z, it involves switching to the ZFS file system. RAID-Z1 apparently offers similar performance to RAID5. Read this thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1135718) for further insight.
I would get an SSD for the OS and use the 3x 7200rpm Disks in RAID5.
RAID5 is great for storing uncompressed video data and in your case would offer protection against a single drive failure.
or Just RAID5 with 3x HDD's and partition the RAID volume.
The most recommend cards right now are the Areca 6g 1880 series or the new ATTO 6G series. For your needs something like the ARC-1880-i SAS 6G RAID Controller would suffice if you don't plan to connect external RAID/Storage solution.
I would go with a 6G controller so as to take advantage of new fast 6G SSD's etc.
nanofrog is the RAID-whizz around here and I am sure he would be able to suggest something for you.

I'm wanting to try making some AMV's....those videos you see on Youtube taking a song and making a video out of clips from a cartoon...the better ones often get some nice lip syncing going.
What software would be good to look at for this kind of thing?
I have iLife 11...does iMovie give enough control for placement of clips? I have 6/HD stored somewhere I could rev up, since it had so much more features..has the new style iMovie started hitting parity?

The iPhone 4 was a failure at launch. The antenna is broken. It drops Internet connections and calls if held a certain. The glass claiming to be strong is weak sauce and the only good things on the phone are the cameras and screen.*
Am I the only one who feels this way?
Yep, think so :)
I also live in a rural area, and with my measly 1-2 bars of 3g, I rarely drop a call and get 1.1-2.0 mbps download speeds. My phone has been perfect.

For AT&T, if you have unlimited plan and add tethering, they drop you to 4GB and it cost $45.

i found this thread while looking for the solution to a similar situation. I too am looking for a phone with a QWERTY keyboard that does not require a data plan, but I also need a calendar that can sync with my mac computer. I don't care what calendar it is (google/ical/other) and and am willing to buy/download third party software, but am not sure about Bit Pim since fourm users' reviews seem mixed at best. I would like to stay with Verizon (cdma) if possible, but haven't found a phone on their network to fit my needs, so now I am open to any carrier. Any advice appreciated.
Well, I don't know about the calendar syncing, but the best Verizon feature phone is the LG enV3.

If we are talking cores contra speed, then it all boils down to what software you will be using.
For the server though, definitely go with more cores as it will be able to handle consecutive connections without trouble.

I didn't know you needed a license to be a fake Canadian Driver. (;
Yes, in fact, there's intensive testing involved before acheiving the honor of being a Fake Canadian Driver, it was quite difficult. But I'm more interested in going out for a beer or two while I'm in San Fran in Jan, Man.

I hope the extent of damage is minimal. Just think if a few key satellites are damaged. Some won't have a cell phone for a while. Maybe go without TV. ...The horror.
As far as more serious concerns, I'm sure the military has contingency defenses in case the system comes crashing down. :eek:
It's gonna be interesting to see.

I run a windows server at home with my movie collection and it has that uptime and then some.
In fact the only time it goes down is when the power goes out or I turn it off when I go on vacation.
On my acer windows 7 laptop, aside from going to sleep I haven't restarted it in months.

Just thought I'd post this. Not only are the Lyson inks better but their CIS system can cut 90% off the ink costs.
I could sure use something like that for my Canon i9900. :p
I checked their link and they don't show it. :(
But I bet the Epson crowd will love it. :D

These "sellers" on Amazon are already guaranteeing one, at a price:

I wish I can just go and get one for my videogame system collection, like I did for the XBox Halo edition - I just walked into a store. No eBay sellers to compete with, etc.
Now with "resellers" - forget it...:(

I suppose if you buy a lot of PSN games the huge console price increase from US to UK doesn't seem as bad.
How is the Lemmings game? Is it actually Lemmings at 3*6 pixels small or the **** stains on the PSP one? Can you use a mouse? Is it a 'best of' or a port of a previous Lemmings?
I love Lemmings :)

Try one of the other browsers such as Atomic or iCab.
I also use Goodreader for downloading files.

Nospot has always been my favorite on my idevices but just downloaded TetherMe last night($4.99) and has to be by far my favorite yet. Love surfing on my iPad now instead of the iPhone. 3GUnrestrictor is also a good one if you want to use FaceTime over 3G or download/update larger apps outside of wifi.
Ohhh AT&T hates you!

What is a good app for a newbie to create a webpage? I want something simple and easy, free would be a plus. I also have a simple knowledge of html.Well, sticking to the question at hand... I can't think of anything that is free, but for someone just wanting to make a webpage (and not spend hours, days, years to become a professional) I usually suggest either Create (http://www.stone.com/Create/Create.html) or Freeway Express (http://www.softpress.com/en/freeway/express).
When I just need to put up a page or two on my own sites I use Create. Otherwise I use GoLive and OmniWeb (for editing source code) as the main tools for creating sites for my clients. Plus Create shares a service that will convert rich text in TextEdit to html to be dropped into an html document later (saves a little time).

I have an ATT iphone and the Trim fits perfectly. I also run with my phone and it fits fine in my Belkin armband w/o removing the case. I also like that the case comes with a dock insert. So far it has been the perfect case for me

Drag the .app to the trash. Don't use cleanmymac, appzapper, appcleaner or any crap like that.
Ugh, I just bought CleanMyMac. Could you elaborate more why these products are bad to use? Thanks
Nevermind: I see someone just addressed my question as I was posting.
