Why does it take a media storm for Apple to open up on an issue ? It would be so much better if they more forthcoming and frank befoe an issue snowballs.
You are very, very negative.

I was still deciding between the Arndale and The Trafford Centre but I think that the Arndale will be a better option. 10:00 sounds like a good start time. First time I have queued on a launch day. :)

Meanwhile in the world of tablets, RIMM is having problems:
Earlier this week it was a breakout of sudden playbook death syndrome.
Users report BlackBerry PlayBooks failing to restart (http://www.infoworld.com/d/mobile-technology/users-report-blackberry-playbooks-failing-restart-992)
APRIL 25, 2011
"Some BlackBerry PlayBook tablets that Research in Motion released last Tuesday are suddenly failing to restart. Some even simply stop working while in use and do not restart. InfoWorld.com experienced this issue with its own review unit after three days of use, and moe than a dozen users have reported the identical problem on RIM's BlackBerry.com support site.
The initial reports began on the evening of April 20, one day after the PlayBook was released, though most users reported the problem after a few days of activity. For units experiencing this "sudden death syndrome," the PlayBook's indicator light double-blinks when turned on but the screen remains black."
Now the company can't deliver its phones and the CEO is having a hard time with questions about security:
BlackBerry maker starts to feel serious squeeze (http://www.brecorder.com/world/global-business-a-economy/12934-blackberry-maker-starts-to-feel-serious-squeeze.html)
FRIDAY, 29 APRIL 2011
"Research In Motion is starting to feel a serious squeeze. The BlackBerry maker is hemorrhaging market share and just warned product delays are hurting sales. The pressure is showing: its co-CEO recently stormed off a TV interview when asked about security issues. RIMM needs to compose itself if a new tablet and operating system are to keep the firm relevant.
Cutting estimates just weeks after issuing them hardly inspires confidence. The company warned hold-ups bringing out new handsets scared off customers. Those still buying RIM devices in the United States and Latin America are choosing cheaper, lower-end ones. As a result, earnings per share will actually shrink slightly, despite the booming market for smartphones."
...
Poor RIMM. I think the end is near.

nice. hey as long as you have permission to fold on those iMacs, we could use the points. the macbooks might not be worth it, depending on what they are used for.
as far as a PC vs mbp, that's up to you. but those new intel processors sure do seem nice. what kind of pc did you have in mind for building?
not a bad idea for keeping track of folding
Yeah I have permission to use the iMacs, they're my dad's and brother's, respectively, and they're both into helping out with this project, as my dad's father died of alzheimer's and my brother had cancer recently.
As far as the new computer goes, I will probably do one this year and the other the next, I just need to figure out which. The MBP would be a high end 15" i7 Sandy Bridge whenever those are ready. The PC would also be an i7 Sandy Bridge (2600k, probably overclocked a little) after the Sandy Bridge is ready again, with a GTX 570 most likely. Although I love building PCs I'm leaning towards getting a new MBP because I travel A LOT (literally half my year is normally spent away from home; I fly for an aerial mapping company) and I would really like to be able to play stuff like Civ V at good frame rates and would enjoy having a little bit more battery life for long airline flights. Not to mention the awesome cpu for compressing my blu ray collection and of course, folding. The kicker will be seeing how the specs for the new MBPs actually shake out, especially the gpu.

I am not defending Full of Win. I sincerely am not.
But some people should keep in mind that it's entirely possible to love a company's products while not liking part or all of the actual company or how they operate on given occasions.
It's very easy for some here to just throw out the term troll and hater just because someone isn't accepting of Apple's PR, etc.
Now go ahead an tag this with your "-1" too :)
Your point is quite valid, but this is specifically directed at Full of Win who has a long history of making anti-Apple comments here. It's certainly true that he might like their products and hate the company that makes it. His comments are so over the top, so factually slanted, that he gets criticized for it.
Either he is sincere, in which he might take the advice to heart. Or he is trolling, in which case he is already doing precisely what he set out to do, in which case nothing will change.

Added geektool scripts finally! I feel like my corners are balanced now. So many useful small apps too! Let me know what you guys think!

this looks awesome! does having these scripts on your computer slow it down it all?
if not, is there a tutorial to do this sort of this somewhere on this site? there used to be in one of the old desktop threads but i can't find it at the moment :(.

From what I read there is no difference between a paid and non paid version in way of functions. The only difference is that it eliminates the nagware.
right, i was hoping to get rid of the nagware poping up in the lower left portion of my screen.

Can anyone recommend an app that does with video what iPhoto does with photos? It should have a library of thumbnails, folders, search, the ability to display most video types, not just limited to QuickTime, ability to drag and drop files which create aliases, etc.
Basically iPhoto for videos. Oh yeah, and free (my guess is it ain't gonna happen for free.
This app: movie montage http://www.findleydesigns.com bills itself as iphoto for movies. (quicktime only I believe) It is a crippled free version but check it out.

I miss 4.2.1, it was really stable for me :(
I totally agree. My iP4 ran beautifully when I first bought it under 4.2.1. While each "upgrade" since then has brought useable features (Printing, AirPlay), the impact to performance and battery life has not been worth it. And I think the proximity sensor problem has returned as well.
Looked for a means to downgrade, but it seems risky and I'm not sure how my upgraded apps would work...

Android will be on more things by the end of the year. iOS is restricted to apple products. But we are already seeing the creativity that people are using android for. Being that it is open source and easy to modify and write on we have many things. Android now powers eReaders, TVs, Video games, and even a microwave
Is that supposed to be impressive? Apple is not in the appliances market, my friend.

4.3 and 4.3.1 has been a disaster. The animations are so choppy it makes it almost androidesque. I hope they actually fix it this time rather than just patching a jailbreak. I wish I could go back to 4.2.1 where the phone was actually stable and smooth.
I noticed the same after upgrading to 4.3.x on my iPad.
The UI is no longer as responsive as it used to be, and I also noticed there's a memory leak somewhere; not sure if it's caused by an application or the system itself is not reallocating memory properly.
Powering OFF and restarting it every few days keeps it running better, but I still feel it's slower than before. :mad:
