You should have asked why nobody replied to this (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=15)

-oldest post without a reply- :rolleyes: ;)

I think what you meant to say was:


OOoooh! I just had this great idea for a reply you could send the guy in the OP :p

Hey Mvbalaj,

You're totally right! I did not even notice the correlation between WWF and the ads. It happens almost every time. I guess now that Zynga owns them they're spamming our backgrounds, as if the longer ads in the 'free' game weren't enough.

At least I know what it is now, and can kill it with SBSettings.

Yes, I wouldn't have got it if it didn't :eek:

Even before I ordered my mac I knew I would need extension cables for the ACD because I read posts on how short the monitor's cables were and also saw it in the local Apple store. I contacted Dr. Bott to confirm their mDP cable supported audio passthrough.

FWIW: I bought my Dr. Bott cables from here:

http://www.macproonline.com/Dr-Bott-Mini-DisplayPort/Displays/Accessories-for-your/-p8236146.html

I got it from Mac-Pro because (a) they were hard to get at the time (even Dr. Bott itself didn't have any, which apparently is the case even now -- just checked the 2m on their site (http://www.drbott.net/product/9378-MDEB/)) and (b) I found a bunch at Mac-Pro which is fairly close to where I live. Heh, the price there now looks a buck or two cheaper then I paid at the time!

Editorial: Many of the ads for these kind of cables are, IMO, incomplete since they also come with USB. So when they advertise the cable supports audio (generally they say "Audio and video passthrough" if they say anything at all) you can't tell for sure if the mDP supports audio in addition to the USB which of course supports audio. So what I do when faced with ambiguities is contact the manufacturers directly.

At least Monoprice, my preferred (first choice) place for ordering cables, is honest to say up front that their mDP cables don't support audio. They're a great place to order cables if the cables fulfill you needs.


thanks for your help. I just got a 2010 quad which i will upgrade the cpu to a hex in a month or so. I also got a 27acd .. nice monitor .. kinda miss the 30acd i used to have but decided to get the 27 instead. I have no idea why apple makes these cables so damn short. I might pick up a second monitor so i guess i will need two sets.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that adding hdmi to the box is more or less a marketing ploy rather than a necessity.

This is what alot of people believe but try and find a 1080p HDTV in the UK that can display 1080p from a source other than HDMI. All the major brands of HDTVs I looked at will only display a 1080p from HDMI although you can use component to display 1080i. Kind of defeats the purpose of buying a 1080p set though.

This is really excellent news. Thank you Apple.

:apple:

Physics. You haz broke dem

Very helpful, indeed.


I can't help you with this, sadly. Perhaps take it to an apple store?

I've got the iWalk videos if anyone wants them or wants to host them.

Also just added the leaked Quicksilver pictures, if anyone has any more information on where they came from feel free to edit the page.

already done. :)

I will try to avoid Macrumors and Engadget but it will be hard. I just can't wait!

I had trouble upgrading the RAM on my iBook the first time I tried too. Those screws are REALLY sensitive to the size of the screwdriver you're using. It HAS to be a #0 Phillips-type screwdriver, or it just plain won't work.

OJuice (http://www.ojuice.net/) is the authority on all things demo. Check out Nectarine (http://www.scenemusic.net/) for streaming scenemusic from the old legends and the new!

I am really looking forward to Renoise 1.5 final. I hope it takes them less time to release than between the last two releases. Looks really spiffy, though! Now if only it supported Audio Units...

Sorry to hear about the problem.

Might want to try Apple Store next time.

If you want a discount on a Mac, go for the refurb at store.apple.com
Refurb Apple products look like new, and has same warranty as new Apple products.

They both sound way too expensive for the specs involved. You should be able to find a DP 2.0ghz Powermac G5 for around $200-250 these days. An iMac G4 should not sell for over $100 imo, unless its the rare 20" model.

If you are short on cash but still want some power, look towards the higher end Powermac G4's. A DP 1.25 or 1.4ghz powermac will outperform the SP Powermac G5, and can usually be had for about $150.

Like the title says. It really REALLY depends on where you live for mac prices. I was shocked that prices where cheaper in Alaska before I moved here to california.
There were ton of great deals on Criag's List up there for gear, but down here close to Cupertino? Holy hell, you would think mac users are offering up their first born for a 1st gen 17' iMac G4.
I had to turn to Mac of all trades for a better deal. ( I do not work for them or are in anyway affiliated with them. But in my price range a few months back this single 1.8, now with a dual OWC from eBay was the best monetary solution to upgrade from my DA dual 533.

How do install lion on a external?

partitioning drives is not something i recommend.

i'm kind of wondering...did you buy a brand new computer, or was it used and therefore the drive is not formatted?

now does this work for downgrading any ipod or iphone?

Yes it does! You just need to download the ipsw corresponding to the model of your device. Other than that the processes is exactly the same.

Are you looking for a text editor or a WYSIWYG editor? If you want a text editor then i would look at Coda (http://www.panic.com/coda/) or PHPStorm (http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/). Both are pretty powerful IDE's for web design.

Normally I would agree, but since this is a used system, I think he's better off wiping and reinstalling the OS.

Sure. I'll go for that. But the questions was how many times is too much. Sounded like "clean installing, worst case scenario."

No love for SMF (http://www.simplemachines.org/)?

Congress appears to disagree with the President

You mean, the Republicans appear to disagree with the President.

Shocker.

And as a previous poster said, they are wrong. I'd love to know the marital status' of all of those supporting the DOMA. I wonder how many divorces they have between them.

How old is your PB - there was a battery recall.
Oh wow. Your real supportive of the situation :rolleyes: :p

I think the name is stupid. But then again I hated the name Macbook when I heard it and thought Apple would never use that name so what do I know? :o

I was part way through switching to Nikon (I'd bought a D300). I decided I wanted to get a camera more suited to landscape/studio so I figured I was safer switching back to Canon and the 5DII.

Over 18 months later, and I'm glad I did. I never thought it would take Nikon this long to release an affordable 5DII competitor.

I want to buy off ebay because I have ebay bucks and would like to avoid paying 3x the price at Apple.

Would this be the correct adapter to connect a VGA source?

The seller says to use the picture to decide. From what I can tell, that is indeed a minidisplay port and not a mini-dvi. Can anybody confirm from the picture? Thanks!
