Did I do the right thing?
I might actually buy it if it wasn't priced at $999.99. Wayyy too high for me. I want that Buzz Aldrin!!!

I'm pretty good programming in PHP and Javascript, but now I need something that allows me to create simple desktop apps. Mostly it will be for automation scripts, too much for Apple Script, but not complex enough to jump into Cocoa and Objective-C. Examples: Manipulating text files (sorting, dupe line checking, adding/cutting parts, splitting/combining files etc.), uploading a file to several different FTP servers, sending POST requests to a server.
I often hear Pearl and Python mentioned and I believe they are pre-installed on the Mac, but I don't know much about them. What's the main difference? Which one (or something else?) would be best suited for these tasks? Which one is easier to learn?
Bonus: What's a good site to learn for someone who has general programming knowledge, but is a total noob with those languages?

The Daily Telegraph disclosed in June that senior space agency scientists believed the Earth will be hit with unprecedented levels of magnetic energy from solar flares after the Sun wakes �from a deep slumber� sometime around 2013.]
Sometime around 2013? More likely 2012. 2012?!:eek::eek::eek: We're all gonna die! We're all gonna die!:p
So that's how the world ends; a solar fart in our general direction.:(

Well I don't turn it or my computer off either ;)
My iMac hasn't been off since I bought it in Sept 2010 and the keyboard is still on its original batteries - with 45% remaining.

I'll post it elsewhere when I get home. I have seen a number of very similar problems that seem to stem from bad wu's so I'll keep trying. It would be my luck though to have the first wu be bad making me think my set up isn't right.
yeah. let us know if you get it to work. hopefully your setup isn't bad.

I have Simple Mobile service. I had been told to disable the 3G option on my iPhone 3gs. Now I have a new iPhone 4. With Gevey, can I now use the 3G enable? Will my phone work on 3G network? Thank you!

I have an original iPad which is jail broken and has displayout installed. I picked up the new HDMI adapter from the Apple store and every app mirrors perfectly except for Netflix. With Netflix I get a red Netflix screen on my TV, however, the video only plays on the iPad.
All other applications including Air Video, ABC player, and Videos installed through iTunes play on both screens.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks

The OP stated iLife 11
There were multiple iPhoto updates for the version in the iLife 11 suite.
It's similar to asking 'what version of OS X are you running'- even if OP already said Leopard it would be necessary to find out what specific version he's running (for example, 10.5.2).

Download Dropbox... done.
Keep it simple to set up, it's free and works perfectly. I use it to work on docs from home, work, my laptop and my iPad.
Pay a little and get a lot more server space.
What he said
Dropbox rocks and the first 2GB are free with up to 5GB thru their referral program.
It basically sets up a folder with subfolders to sync to the cloud.
I went back to school last year and used dropbox everyday to sync files between my MacBook and Mac mini.
If I edit a word or excel file in class on my MacBook, dropbox automatically uploads the changes to the cloud. My Mac mini is running 24/7 and downloads the new edited version 10 seconds later 10 miles away from campus.
I set up my folders with their relative files in each, such as finance, accounting etc.
Sitting in class, I download my PDFs and power points from the schools server to my MacBook which instantly syncs to my home computer, works cross platform from your MacBook to your PC.
If you are all Mac, you can buy MobileMe. With the time capsule, and Back to My Mac, you can easily log into and control your home computer, such as reloading your handbrake or torrent queue. In Have both and find dropbox much better. I also have it on my iPhone and iPad.
Dropbox is what the MobileMe iDisk was meant to be, but much better and free.

hmmmm.
would be nice to think that they might introduce a load of new stuff on that monday!
don't know what the actual truth is tho.. can't think of any real reason why they would need to 'close' a part of their website..

I just installed the Intel 320 (120 GB) and I must say that I'm amazed.. No set-up besides the TRIMenabler patch
That's great news!
Did you get the OEM or Retail version? I'm ordering the OEM version, but I don't know if I'll be missing any screws or anything.
(I don't need the cables to clone my drive - I'm gonna migrate my data files using Time Machine.)
thanks,
nick

I generally advise people to avoid having their camera gear on a homeowner's rider anyway- the last thing you want is the HO insurance canceled because of a claim. Talk to any licensed insurance agent- Traveller's has a nice "personal professional property" policy, or just ask about an "inland marine" policy for your gear.

On a fully updated install of 10.4.3 on my latest rev iBook, I have never seen myspace freeze. I was going to use firefox until I found out that when I visited myspace in firefox CPU usage spiked. For some reason it doesn't do that in safari, so until that changes, I'm staying with safari.
But the point of all this was, I have no problems at all on safari.
I do not have WMP installed, therefore I get that plugin not found message, I just hit cancel, never once has myspace frozen on me.
That's probably why it's not frozen on you. The lack of the WMP plug-in doesn't cause nearly as many problems for any browser as it might. Firefox, Shiira, Safari, Camino--they all do it--since it's one place for all plug-ins on Mac OS X.
If I go to the profile pages of almost any of the Filipinos, they have literally hundreds of videos, one in each comment and they all play at once. It's possible to turn the things off or to stop the behaviour through settings but apparently, anything goes and if they don't see it, it's not happening. :eek:

Apple is not falling behind!
Okay so there chip technology is a little below the bar of the other generic drones.
But everything else there doing is way ahead of everyone else.

I am using this code to embed an MP3 file into a pop-up window (don't worry, I've got controls and the user actually has to click to start the song):
<embed src="mysongname.mp3" autostart="true" hidden="true" loop="true">
This works fine on IE and Firefox for PC and it works fine on Safari for Mac. The problem is that the song does NOT play on IE or Firefox for Mac! Any suggestions?
Thanks!

just chatted with a representative:
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Hi Robert Kaplarczuk,
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Thank you for contacting Monoprice Tech Support.
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): My name is Lacey H.. Give me a moment while I review your question.
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): How are you doing today Robert Kaplarczuk?
Robert Kaplarczuk: very good I'm going to be purchasing the new iMacs and had a question about the HDMI converter
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Alright, how can I help you with that?
Robert Kaplarczuk: it says that it goes in the mini display port which the new iMacs have
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Correct
Robert Kaplarczuk: however at the botom of the page it also says thunderbolt compatible which the iMacs also have
Robert Kaplarczuk: how is it t
Robert Kaplarczuk: hunderbolt compatible
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Correct
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): it it FULLY thunderbolt compatible
Robert Kaplarczuk: so it can be connected to the thunderbolt port as well?
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Yes, the thunderbolt port is a mini displayport, basically an upgraded mini displayport port
Robert Kaplarczuk: ok thank you\
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Robert Kaplarczuk: so basically any mini display port wire ordevice can be used in a thunderbolt
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Yes, thunderbolt is fully backwards compatible, however that does not mean it will give your devices thunderbolt compatibility if they have the previous displayport version.
Robert Kaplarczuk: thank you
Question guys:
What she mean by previous display port version? Does her explanation mean that certain devices do not have to have Thunderbolt ports only mini display ports to plug ihnto the thunderbolt port?

These are ok value for money options, try not to go with the OCz though if this article is anything to go by:
http://blog.macsales.com/9438-not-all-ssd%E2%80%99s-are-created-equal-the-story-continues
OWC, Micron\Crucial and Intel are the best brands and use the most quality components. With OWC being better than the Micron\Crucial which uses a slower Marvell Controller.
Thank you, another VERY IMPORTANT variable for me is to be able to upgrade the Firmware of the SSD over time, do you know if OWC provides that option ?, also do you know is the OWC SSDs have the TRIM option ?

I see you got FCP in your sig, i use Premiere CS5 and Photoshop you suggest the drobo would be good stuff like that? I have checked out the drobo before, they do look good. I just need something i can remote into and control when im away kick off downloads etc...as the server will be headless (no monitor)
The regular Drobo was too slow for HD video editing, but the Drobo S works great. It is not necessary as fast as a RAID-0, but I have had no slow downs or stuttering in FCP with the Drobo S.
