That article is very good but it's directed mostly to manufacturers and industry standard setters rather than end-users.
Unfortunately, it's a bit tricky. After TRIM Enabler came out about a month ago I did a secure erase. Nonetheless, the other day I ran Stellar Mac Data Recovery to undelete a file and it found a LOT of old files (almost a GB worth) that I think pre-date the secure erase. I might try a more "scientific" test when I have more time.
I plan to pass the MacBook Air down within the family when I get a new one, but I agree manufacturers need to get on the ball.

I just bought a used IMAC g5
Can re-installing the OS too many times on a imac g5 , add wear and tear to the HARDDRIVE?
also, when you erase and re-install your OS does it take from the amount of GIG space, versus just leaving it alone and deleteing all the files manually?

Bose makes the best speakers for computers and they work with the Mac and I-pod. The best thing is their price--less than $100 (right around that price). They come with the subwoofer builtin, making them easy to move around. They are called Media Mate. They come in a few colors that definitely match the Imac or any other Mac color.
As for which computer--I say stay away from the Ibook. They have a logic board problem that still is not fixed--I know I've gone through 5 of them already.

Odd..
Did you change the machine id on the other installations? Are they all in seperate folders so the data files dont overlap?
I've never seen that error from the log..

having owned every mac mini from 1.66 c2d to a 2010 2.66ghz .
you need to upgrade if :
1)you game a lot.
2) If you want dual screens of 1080 p
3) if you are a handbrake freak
4) if you want a 27 inch hi end led screen with 2500 by 1400 resolution

Happy New Year, MR.
I'm making a new start and would like to pursue a passion of mine that's been put on the burner for some time now which is music production. Is there a relatively cheap intermediate level USB keyboard that I can get to learn programming music on? I don't want one of those 108 keys that span across my desk but more a mini one. I'm into progressive/deep house music.
Thanks

Top-line iMac or base-line Mac Pro?
Hey guys, I'm a video editor that works mostly with RED footage in Final Cut Pro and After Effects. I'm also a gamer running Bootcamp and Steam. I'm currently working on a 3 year old Macbook Pro and looking to upgrade by the end of the year. Here are my choices, I'm wondering if a new top of the line iMac will outperform the current base model of the Mac Pros for gaming and video work... or if the Mac Pro is the way to go.
27" iMac
3.4ghz Quad-Core i7
2TB Serial ATA HD
AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2GB
$2,304 (Student)
Mac Pro
2.8ghz Quad-Core Xeon "Nehalem"
2TB 7200 RPM HD
ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB
$2,614 (Student w/ no display)
I plan on buying RAM (and Mac Pro display) elsewhere so I did not include it in the specs. Thoughts? :)

I never moved any system files and never would. The only things i put, or tried to put, on the external was 1 sample library for elektrik piano and the saved songs in my garageband folder. thats it.
I guess this drive is just either faulty or way too slow to meet my needs. I contacted the company about a refund/return ..we'll see

I'm not being snotty...
I'll be snotty for a moment...
Designers can get overly focused in on fonts. I know, because I was once. I have spent waaay too many hours searching through font libraries, trying to find the perfect typeface for this project or that. All the while creating crappy design because I wasn't paying enough attention to the hierarchy of information, letter spacing, kerning, leading, composition, scale, contrast, rhythm, color scheme, negative space, photo selection, or photo color correction. There are so many more important aspects of design than font choice. I could design with nothing more than Helvetica and still create compelling design.
My suggestion... get yourself a handful of workhorse typefaces, and work on those other aspects of design. It will do far more for your work than the latest font ever could.

Makes me wonder if I should go somewhere else instead.
It means you should be lining up now lol.
I think any apple store will be safe for launch day. Even if its a long line, I think they'll be good with large quantities for the weekend.

My wife and I are going to San Francisco in November. I thinking about taking the BART from SFO to downtown. Mainly I would avoid the hassle of driving downtown plus I would save on rental car costs and parking costs. Once we get downtown we won't really need a car.
How do people feel about BART?
Is it safe and reliable?
First off read this (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=149771) (first post). I personally have never seen that happen, but I feel you should be aware of that.
In my experience BART is fairly safe. Just don't leave things unattended; keep them under control at all times. Like always have your bag on your lap and a strap or something looping your arm just incase. I've taken my iPod on BART before and never had a problem; although I was a bit nervous at times. Since your only going from SFO to downtown SF it won't take that long to get there. Just got to be alert and just use common sense with certain things.
As far as reliability is concerned - well for the most part they're usually on time. But there have been occasions (more than once) were they were delayed, and that can be bad especially during the evening commute home when you want to get home.
But all in all, it's safe. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just use common sense: don't show anything valuable, keep that stuff in a pocket or bag. And just be alert in general. I mean I've even taken naps on BART and never really had a problem. And BART does have it's own police unit.
Hope that all makes sense. If not post back :)

Nope. A pillow (by definition I believe) is a cushion, which a MBP is not. I guess you can say it qualified as a support.
Nothings stopping you from putting your head on it. I'm sure it could take the load, but i would recommend just getting one of those heat pads.
Or use it for spooning.

OK, someone recognized the abbreviations and proved that the graph is accurate (provided the context I noted was absent). ...
Arguing that the graph cannot be parabolic based on it being hand-drawn is a moot point. Thanks to KingHuds for the explanation.A screed based on fallacious assumptions. We are not all constrained by the limits of your mathematical knowledge. Nowhere on the graph is there an x. Neither is there a y. It was clear that those three regimes of \eta were important.

I used the V400 for a while. We didnt get a long to well. It was fine, the battery life was fine for me. Nothing un reasonable. 3-4 days is what I got. I seemed rather slow n sluggish at times. It also scratches very easier. Then my backlight died on it. ( Just one day went out.) I went into Cingular and they gave me a new one on the spot.
I was done with the phone though, and bought a V600 at the same time. (sold the new V400 on ebay) It much more durable IMO opinion.
I've since bought a V3.
All in all its a good phone. Nothing special IMO. but solid.So you would recomend the v600 over the v400 as far as battery life and quality?

You can install Snow Leopard client from a USB stick. You can google for instructions on how to prepare a USB stick.
A clean install of Snow Leopard would be ideal unless you're moving from an old Mac and would rather not setup and configure everything again.
I just read the thread on SL vs SL server in the OS X section, Basically if you have to ask the question you should just install the client OS.
I'm making my USB SL client stick as we speak So I can do a fresh install
Thanks for the Help

Understood. In the future, you can add the editing template to an article while you're editing it to warn others not to. Usage is as follows (this automatically adds your name and the current date & time):
Thanks for the added clarification and understanding. I (as usual) overreacted, but I could tell (from your first reply in PM) that your intentions were not hostile. I will remember to use the editing code next time I post up a new guide.
Thanks again for the assistance, and I have learned some valuable wiki experience that should help avoid these types of transactions in the future.
Your help, understanding, and patience is greatly appreciated!

I agree with what some people have said however with the delay of 4.0 for the ipad I would not be surprised if they end up having this feature within its native photos apps.
For someone like Steve who is so over everything it would just surprise me why they would have delays with no reason, there must be an end game reason as to why or else people have to start loosing their jobs.

if you get a google voice number (FREE) and download that app on your ipad you can use that number to text.
I have google voice on my iphone and ipad and use it to text because it is 100% free!

How many times did you try the jb and what were you using? Pwnage or greenpoison? Just because the jb fails once doesn't mean that it was a disaster. Try the jb again.
Tried it with Greenpois0n and it failed so I tried it with Redsnow and it worked. It's tethered, but thats no big deal as I rarely ever turn it off. But now what do I do with the host file? I deleted what I added and now it looks like this. Is this correct?
