I would really like to see what the difference in size between the new nanos and old nanos is. if it really is 52% smaller, which doesn't look it from the picture, I will definitely consider picking one up. has anyone seen any side by side pictures of the new and old nano?

I don't know why so many people are against 3D. It sounds like people who say "Get off my lawn!!" Sure, 3D isn't fully developed yet, but even the 3DS is pretty neat and adds a whole new level of gameplay and immersion. It is surely the next level of tangible UI.

It's called a World Wide Developers Conference for a reason. It's not New Apple Hardware Announcements Conference. Get over it.
Wait a Second! "Apple Hardware Announcements Conference". Brilliant Apple can charge $1500 for people to come and watch Apple announce new hardware. Of course at that cost the hardware they announce would not be included.
Some how I doubt that many people would pay that much.

agree - apple needs a thin and light 12" laptop or similar.
Where is my 2 lb Apple laptop? Sony has one. Panasonic has one.

I wonder if this is a specific to X86 hardware... Does this effect ppc based hardware?
These options have always been there, but I'm not sure they're sufficient to divert this type of exploit (assuming it exists/works, since people are arguing fervently that it's a hoax). The way I understand it, a WiFi device looking to join a network is doing active sensing even when it will only join preferred networks -- this pretty much must be true, since it can join a preferred hidden network, which is not itself broadcasting its availability. So the problem comes when a malevolent entity responds to the ping that the WiFi card puts out. I'm not sure just telling your computer to not join open networks would make any difference at that level. For instance, in analogy, with the BT exploit, one was not required to pair with the device propagating the virus -- just be discoverable.

Have you ever been involved in the deployment of a multi-million dollar online store?
Have you ever walked backwards across the Sahara desert? That's an equally irrelevant question.
They put a link into the international stores. That isn't a complex update, and the amount of money the store generates doesn't make a difference.

In other news, Adobe Systems Incorporated feels that an income of $775M is just not adequate enough for their regular money pit parties. While I cannot/do not condone piracy; Adobe definitely knows how to alleviate a pirate�s guilt on the issue.

I worked in radio at the time. That list was fake.
I'm sorry; the list was real (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Channel_Communications). It wasn't an official ban per se, more of a suggestion, sent by Clear Channel Communications to stations they owned.

Man, Apple keeps getting lower and lower. First Walmart, now this?
The closest apple store to my town (population 48k) is over a hour away - we have two radio shacks. How is this low? an elitist much? This is great! - Ipad 2's are the same price everywhere, except AAFES where its $10 cheaper and tax free. - Now many people can save their hard earned money as gas approaches $4 a gallon under this administration. Besides some people have radio shack credit cards -and earn rewards. They may prefer to buy from there.

This is not a hack at all.. unless you have SSH ("Remote Login" in Sharing prefs) on and the attacker knows your password, they can't do crap.
Now, by all means I'd like to see proof that this hack can actually exploit a user's system without SSH on and without knowwing their password, but from what I've seen I wouldn't think so.

All of the stores in Atlanta are out.
Apple is opening at 9 am and the lines start at 7:30 but people are camping out since 4am.

Is it me, or is the internals of the Mac Pro not as sexy as the internals of the PowerMac G5? It just doesn't feel the same.

Being a professional myself I remember having those fears a few years ago. In fact we lost a large client because one of the employees thought that her high school son could do the same level of work that we did. If that were true I would say shame on us, in reality the client came back to us a few months later when the kid couldn't actually produce the same level of edit quality and creativity that we do.
This reminds me of one of my early clients. A radio station that asked me to do a promotional video for a certain price. I told them that I couldn't do it. I didn't have the time, the skill, nor the resources to pull it off. I also told them that there weren't too many I knew in the production field that would do it for the lowball price that they were offering.
They saw my work and wanted to hire me for the job, so I just took a chance at accepted it.
It was my first foray into professional video editing . . . it ended in disaster. Thank goodness I had a contract at least. I say though because even as a well versed college student I still recommended the station to go find a professional to do the job. I had classes, projects of my own, a steady job and girlfriend to mind. I didn't even have a car to get around NOR a decent camera to shoot with.
There shouldn't be too many 16 year olds taking real work from real professionals. There aren't too many 25 years old amateur editors or recent college grads taking work from me now . . . and the work they do get I don't want.

Let's just wait to see how long it will take for Apple to supply an update to fix this problem. I'm betting it won't take long.
Edit: seems it's already fixed.
Edit 2: It's a USB wireless card hack? Oh wow, ALL THE MACBOOK USERS ARE IN DANGER! RUN AWAY! :rolleyes:
Edit 3: in other news, putting your Macbook in the oven at 300 celcius for 5 hours WILL BURN IT! APPLE HARDWARE IS FLAWED! :rolleyes:

So far I have yet to see an official confirmation from a reputable (read "not-rumour") web site.
The "confirmations" flying around all seem to be the rumour sites referencing each other.
Until I see iLounge or MacWorld get an invitation I won't be getting my hopes up for an secret-Apple-ninja-attack event.
Whilst I agree I am more hopeful given the density and consistency of the rumours. But we have been let down before, so tonight and a week from now will have me glued to the Mac in anticipation.

All Mac OS packages sold on their own are upgrade kits.
Under the EULA you can only run Mac OS's on Mac Hardware and all Mac computers come with the OS. So what you are buying is an upgrade.
Under the EULA you cannot buy and install a Mac OS for a computer that didn't already come with the Mac OS.
ALL Mac OS's sold on their own are upgrades.
In other words, you can only run OS X on a Mac, because all Macs ship with it.
But you can buy OS X 10.4 and install it on any Mac sold in the last 5 years. You don't need 10.1, 10.2 or 10.3 installed in order to install 10.4, and I imagine 10.5 will be the same.

On the last page of Part 12 I posted a setup that is located in my home office (mainly used by my wife). Different room.
I decided to update my own office (kind of) with a brand spanking new iMac which is replacing my late 2009 Macbook Pro.
Old Specs Macbook Pro 17":
2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM
500GB + 80GB SSD ( took it out before selling)
Nvidia 9400M + 9600M
New Specs iMac:
2.93Ghz i7
8GB RAM
1TB Hard Drive + (still want my 80GB SSD inside this baby, but difficult to do so!)
ATI Radeon HD 5750 1GB
So far, so good.
The speakers are also still there, but these are not shown in the picture.
This is an old/new comparison.
Mind the quality, but my iPhone 4 broke (will be replaced) on me so I used an old iPhone first generation.
I kept the iPad 64Gb Wifi.
Feedback is always welcome. :D
And here I thought windows were only for looking out of :rolleyes:
I like your idea more.
