I'd like to get a new 17" MBP and I'm wondering what the verdict is on SSD's... are third-party drives still a better option than the ones that come stock from Apple? If so, which brand/model is best? Also, what's the status with TRIM support and garbage collection in all this? Does Apple's current OS/hardware have either of these yet? If not, will Lion have TRIM support?
I have 4 SSD's.
A 256 GB OWC, in a 2007 BMB.A 64GB OWC in a 2008 BMB, both are mission critical, and I run my business with them.
I also have 2- 1.6 GHZ 4/64 11" refurb MBA's, that I am in the process of installing 360GB OWC Aura's in each.(one more to buy)
All OWC SSD's have performed as advertised, and have been problem free.
I have spoken with Hellhammer, and he has advised against the hack to enable TRIM on each, I
believe Apple supports garbage collection, on their own drives,but not others, but Lion will
support Trim, so I am waiting for Lion before I activate the MBA's
I have been very happy with all RAM, and SSD's purchased from OWC.:cool:

Everytime is slow for me. On top of that, I think it's pretty buggy. I tried to send some emails that were only like 3 sentences long, and I get an error saying that the message is too big! :confused:

Here's all you need to know Mcrain... a hardened weathered old-time farmer works his entire life, pours his blood sweat and tears into paying off his family farm, paying income tax on every cent he earned and property taxes on every square foot of land every single year... yet when he passes away and per his request, his farm passes to his only son, the government decides that they didn't bleed enough out of him. Before his son can have the farm, he must first sell off half of it to the highest bidder in order to pay off the tax man ONE MORE TIME.
It's a tax on accumulated (and previously taxed) income... period.
It's a new tax on the new transfer of the accumulated (and previously taxed) income. Big difference. (edit) Oh, and I already know plenty about the subject. Good try though.
(edit 2)
Fundamental misunderstanding... drives me crazy.
First, the estate tax is not a new tax, but an alternative to what would happen without the estate tax. What? Huh? Confusing? Ok, if you eliminated the estate tax, then there would be no tax at the estate level, but there would also be NO amount of the transfer exempt from taxation, and every heir would be required to include every penny they receive and declare it as ordinary income and pay a tax on that at whatever tax rate they are at. On the other hand, the estate tax simplifies the filing, provides a five million dollar exemption, and doesn't require heirs to mess with the paperwork.
Here's a wiki article you might like. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estate_tax_in_the_United_States

All that needs to be done is to have the Macs that are not part of the "original" all-in-one series (128k, 512k, Plus, etc.) moved up in the heirarchy so we have

I notice that the fingers in the diagram look small. A little research shows the average male index finger dip joint (last joint at the finger) is about 1cm long. Doing some quick calculations, assuming ANYTHING in the diagram is to scale, the device seems to be about 7" tall. The current Ipod is 4.1" tall. Also, the diagram shows the ability to add to playlist, which leads me to believe it is more than an ipod... perhaps I am completely wrong, of course
that reminds me.... does anyone remember when Jobs was previewing GarageBand PodCast maker? His Super Secret Apple Rumors?
�Hi, I�m Steve and welcome to my weekly podcast, Super-secret Apple Rumors. I have some pretty good sources inside Apple, and the next iPod is going to be HUGE, like 8 pounds � See you next week.�
Well... He's probably talking about something else.
Instead of 10,000 songs in your pocket it'll be 8 lbs in your pocket. Not too fun.

Interesting, I use Westpac (although I'm in NZ, not Australia), and I haven't had any problems whatsoever with Safari.
With both Mozilla and Safari (don't know about Firefox), there are undocumented procedures to enable a "debug" menu which will (among other things) let you configure the browser to lie about its identity.
In many cases (but not all), this is enough to make an unfriendly web site work. Many times, the site contains scripts that simply check a browser version, even when the actual page content will run everywhere else.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
I have tried that, and while some of the text attributes change the text remains garbled.

these sell for 1800 new... they also come with a $300 ipod touch and a $100 printer. i would be willing to offer 1500, but i dont really think it is worth more than that.

Apple Lossless Codec is a compromise between the small but lossy encoding of AAC or MP3 and the large file sizes of pristine AIFF audio. Apple Lossless provides full uncompressed CD quality audio in about half the space of the original file, answering the call by discriminating musical ears for a format that offered both compression and high-quality audio.
If I read your post right it seems that you are importing from your cds in either aac or mp3 and then converting those files to apple lossless. Unless you have a lot of space, not a lot of cds, and a really good ear I would not reccomend importing your cds to apple lossess. I import my cds at 192kps AAC and can't tell the difference between that and the cd.

Holy cow it was crowded there! I got there at 7:30 and the line was already a whole block long. I'll try and go back around 2 or 3 and check out the situation. If it's still crazy I'll just place an online order for delivery in a couple of weeks.

I never thought I'd ever hear this many people justifying a premium on a product. Apple has so much money right now they can pretty much do anything. If you think this is such a noble goal then when you buy your next apple product pay another hundred dollars to help their profit margins. Or so they can build better products.
And don't go looking for discounts or coupons, those hurt profit margins. Lets just raise prices.
this is directed at this whole idea of paying more and not just at the quoted post.
So many people start buying apple after their first product, if they lower the price so that more do this then in the end they may end up with more business.
I think that's a false conclusion from the data. People have been saying what you've been saying for the last 20 years, but the times they've been in the most trouble has been when they've strayed from their classic business strategy.

Don't underestimate the power of javascript.
I can second that... Most people underestimnate the potential of JavaScript. The software company I have a contract with at the moment writes their whole player software in JavaScript. It is jaw dropping what the guys do with "just" JavaScript!

I just got my BSE order today (bought it when they did 10% discount + free shipping). I got a open envelope and packing slip, no screen protectors. It appears they didn't seal the envelope when sending, because the adhesive to seal the envelope is unused.
Do you think BSE forgot to put them in there, or someone from the post office jacked em?
Has anyone else received an order like this?

Yeah, I clearly copied the "forum post" template, but that's obviously changeable. It was just a proof of concept, but if random visitors can't write to the 'Talk' page, it's all for naught anyways.
I just thought it might be an invitation for a random net visitor to contribute. That's the main issue facing all wiki's - not enough contributors.
