I like the design of these better than the G5, and I don't want to spend several hundred dollars more on something that I don't like as well.
I agree with you there, I ended up buying a 20" 1.25GHz iMac G4 a few months ago because I just couldn't bring myself to buying into the look of the G5 (I mean don't get me wrong, its not bad, I just love the G4's look). But you should know, assuming you buy the iMac G4 through apple.com refurbished, it really costs more than getting a refurbished G5 oddly.
Such as when I bought my iMac G4 three months ago, the refurbished G5 iMac was actually $50 cheaper and was 1.8GHz with 160GB compared to the G4 at 1.25Ghz with 80GB. So monetarily the G5 is a better deal, but for me I had to go form over function. :D Course if you go the ebay route you might get a better deal than apple offers so who knows in that respect.
So personally I say go for it. I honestly don't do anything really intensive on it but it does work flawlessly and have had no real problems with it. And since your not doing any huge video editing work, I see no reason you need all the extra speed, though the HD space would be nice, but you could always just get an external FW drive if you need it later.

Actually I have 3 T-Mobile phones, each has GPS for use in E-911. Its a new federally mandated requirement.
Unless a different e911 came out I don't think that's true. All e911 required is that positioning information was available - it didn't require a specific technology. It differentiates between handset and network technologies but accepts both.
GSM networks do it by cell tower triangulation, a network technology, not GPS, a handset technology.

If Michael Moore is gonna insist wealth is pubic domain, I want a piece of his mansion. That guy is not as rich as Bill Gates but he's still friggin rich.
As far as taxation, you can't raise taxes on the poor because they don't have anything. You can only raise taxes on the rich. And you can't stimulate the economy during a slump without spending, which is why taxes are needed. It's a crappy dilemma, not everyone is gonna be happy. I'd settle for taxing the rich too if I was a politician.

I once had a CRT that did that, very annoying. A noise doesn't mean there is a serious problem though, just don't switch it off put it on sleep.

I guess I should have searched first, but it didn't occur to me that anyone else would have proposed something this otw. :o
Maybe when I actually get my backwards compatible Xbox 360 and PS3, I'll be more willing to throw caution to the wind and give this a go. For now, I'll leave it for braver folk than I.

1. Apple officially announces that Boot Camp will be part of Leopard.
2. VMWare announces their product for OS X.
3. Microsoft kills VPC for Mac as it becomes pointless and sort of redundant.
After all, if they can sell the regular version of Windows to intel Mac users, why bother wasting money on something other companies are doing (VMWare and Parallels).
You want Windows on your Mac, use Boot Camp/buy VMWare or Parallels and then buy Windows like everyone else. No extra R&D funds/time required to enter the "Mac market", which thanks to Boot Camp is "all intel Mac users".
It's a simple business decision.
Yeah, this joke has been around forever. It originally was used when Windows 95 first came out. It isn't technically valid for NT, 2000, XP, or Vista. Those are just 32-bit (or 64-bit) OSes by a 2 bit company. :-D
Well, how about "Windows Vista: a 64-bit OS that can almost emulate a 32 bit shell running on a 16 bit extension of an 8 bit OS designed for a 4 bit CPU, made by a 2 bit company that can't stand one bit of competition."? ;-)

Does anyone have this sleeve for the 11" Macbook Air? I paid $39.95 for the Incase one from the Apple store and I don't like how tight it is and how you have to slide the Macbook in from the top. Then I saw on Speck's website the Pixelsleeve and it looks really nice. Is it hard to get the MBA in it? What is the inside of the sleeve made out of. Can anyone post some good pictures of it? I can order it off Amazon.com for $22 shipped with a $10 credit I have so I could save $23 if I take the Incase one back. I just wanted to get some impressions of it before I did it. Thanks.
I have a thread started about that sleeve for the 13" Air. I was looking at the TrimSleeve or the PixelSleeve Air. I was trying to decide which one to order. Judging by the pictures on the website and the way the air sits in the sleeve, it looks like the Pixel doesn't fully cover the air? I'm not sure. I ended up ordering the TrimSleeve. I really didn't want a neoprene exterior.

Yup. Multiple restarts.
Could it be the USB connection on the Hard Drive? I've seen before some portable hard drive connections are very sensitive, try moving the USB cable around a bit and see if ejects it. But as the other guy said take it back and get a new one.

Hopefully they will release Iphone 5 this fall. My 3gs is getting slow but it still works, could be the software but the overall design needs a refreshment.
I refuse to buy the Iphone 4 because it's about a year old now, to buy an Iphone 4 now is just plain stupid.
good example of my post :)

Completing my Final Cut project tonight. I have been down the last few days because for some reason F@H will suck away power from FCP, even tho it is not supposed to (same with F@H and Pro Tools).:confused:
Anyway, hopefully I will be back up tomorrow and booted in Windows with bigadv and GPU to make up some lost time.;)

Similar for me... I spent about four years with Sprint and now about three with T-Mo. I've been happier with the latter, although I was close to switching to Verizon or Cingular. And we've done that thread a thousand times...
Ditto here. I was a longtime Verizon Wireless customer (3 or 4 years), was with AT&T Wireless briefly, and now I've been going on 5 years with T-Mobile. Of those, I've been most satisfied with T-Mobile. In NYC, Verizon does have better coverage, but their customer service is atrocious, and the phone selection will always be worse since they're CDMA.
...but I would be happy with either T-Mobile or Cingular for the iPhone. I'm happy to stay with T-Mobile, but wouldn't mind switching to Cingular's rollover minutes. Plus it sounds like Cingular is well ahead of T-Mobile in terms of rolling out 3G/4G level broadband.

I know he wants a tv in the front lobby but I think he wants to be able to choose between the tv audio or music up there. In the back he wants to be able to play pandora from one of the macs to all the individual rooms with a volume control in each room. I believe this is new construction so there is nothing existing to go from.
Thanks for the help.

are you in the uk or ireland? it uses 220 power. I would not be able to comment on it I don't think it sells in usa we have 110/120 power.
I live in Italy, so no problems as we have 220 v power. What I was interested in is the quality of the device. At a first look it seems to me it is a firewire aluminium enclosure with a LG R/W optical drive inside (but I am not sure).
Best Regards
