Yes, Parallels and VMware are better products, but that is not the point. Has no one else noticed the number of products Microsoft is canceling for the Mac. I do not believe that Microsoft sees a market for the Macintosh. This of course is purely a business perspective.
I for one think Apple will be taught a lesson in respect. The only logical solution is to kill off Mac Office universal binary support. If they want to run on the Intel platform, they can run on emulation.
It would not be much of a loss if Microsoft decided to pull the plug. Don't think they haven't taught about it. A three percent market share or 19 million desktop users does not even come close to the numbers that still use Windows 2000, never mind Windows 98. I of course don't wish this to happen, but it is one logical outcome.

Great figures, especially for the PC sales.
The desktop is coming to an end. I'm not surprised - the current 2011 laptops make even better desktop ( exclude Mac Pro ) replacements than before... the graphic cards is the weakspot though.
If Apple sold just over a million desktops, I wonder how many of them where Mac Pros ( so I wonder how long until Apple ditch those :-( ).

This 'll probably vary by the local culture by country, but I live in a country where sim locking has been illegal until recently,(so we're not used to cheap smartphones with expensize contracts) while in the US traditionally most phones were/are simlocking offered "subsidized" by a carrier.
If you' re used to a cheap subsidized phone(with expensize carrier contract), you're less likely to pay � 700 for an iPhone 32GB(though since I choose my own carrier it's cheaper in the long run.
I do think Apple should ofer sim-lock free iPhones worldwide, but if you can get cheap subsidized Blackberries,Androids,Nokias,... it's not the smartest move commercially.

I'll be down until Time Warner comes and installs road runner in my house. I hope they come and install quick! Sucks as my 2gb data plan eats up quickly :(
Should have my rig up to full power again. :D

not irrelevant to many others. a lot of people use it for trips through the country where they take pics of buildings, scenery. there are even enough professional uses like scouting out the locations for a new golf course, new hotels, camp sites, movie set locations and many more.
there are already other solutions for it though.
you just have to have the time between your GPS device and your camera in sync. there are programs that map the automatically the pics to the gps location via the time when they where taken. sony has a dedicated gps but in priciple it works with all of them.
seems that technology is then just integrated in iphoto. sounds neat.
What I'm thinking here is that the GPS is integrated into the camera. So when you take a pic, the GPS coordinates are recorded in the metadata so you know where it was taken.

I got it from the Fantasy Factory event that Rob Dyrdek hosted on Thursday. No I did not go myself :( but I have a friend that went and he said they had lots of copies for everyone that attended. I tried all week to get me a early copy but no luck.
Any of you get a copy early and want to play? And if you did get it early, how? Maybe others wanna get it early
I'm not a big fan of Halo, but I'm pretty sure it isn't meant to be released worldwide until the 14th or something...
When Halo 3 was released, someone somehow got a copy of it the day before it was released. They went on Xbox LIVE with it (on the same day) and they were banned until December 31, 9999. I suggest you be careful until the 14th...

G'day Guys,
I have been having a look around for a solution to my slow network problem, with no luck. Hopefully somebody here can help me.
I have 2 mac pro systems I use for audio and video work. They are on the company network which seems to be 10/100 and a little slow. When I am transferring large files between the two machines (which are on opposite sides of the room) it takes forever because the speed is limited to 100Base-T and not 1000 that the computers can work at. This is no good. I need speed. Can I run a private network on the Ethernet 2 sockets for transferring data between the 2 computers? How can I set it up so that these computers will always choose this private network for transferring data? Will this work when transferring data for Qmaster jobs?
As no other computers will need to be on the network, I assume it is as simple as plugging the two computers together with an Ethernet cable and making sure they can see each other. The hard part is making sure they always use this network and not the company network.
Ideas anyone?
Cheers,
Chris

I agree with everything Talmy has said apart from the resolution. It isnt low resolution. In comparison to a 27" ACD, or 27" Dell Ultrasharp, yeh ok then its low. but Full HD resolution is good enough for you uses. I know an entire Design Company using AutoCAD and Alias, there isnt a single monitor there with better resolution than Full HD because they dont need it!!
For that price its pretty good!!

I'm basically looking for a list of your favorite apps, and what they do.
Games i have are fruit ninja, angry birds, sonic, and street fighter. All of them are fairly popular so nothing new there.
I use weather HD for weather, iFitness for workouts. I think iFitness is no longer available though.
Then just the apps that came with the phone, text/safari.

Yeh, some manufacturers are making it harder to Root, but Root DOESN'T equal Jailbreak. The Android os (speaking on 2.3) has built in hotspot, built in widgets, built in moving backgrounds, built in customizable screens, built in facebook, built in lock screen custimization, built in keyboards, systemwide voice activation, etc. There are things that people want to jailbreak for, and in Android OS you don't have to ROOT to do any of that.
yeah, i totally understand what you're saying. android definitely does a lot more straight out of the box than the iphone does. but i guess for me, if i had an android device i'd really like to be able to flash some really cool builds and kernels a lot of the guys at xda-dev release (like we all used to do in the old winmo days) that way i don't have to worry when the manufacturer quits releasing updates after ~6 months and i get stuck on an old os. i just hate the fact those manufacturers are trying to prevent that type of community from doing their thing. i don't think its what google wanted android to be about.

It would be better if Apple concentrated on getting IPTC metadata stored in the picture file itself and made iPhoto aware that IPTC comments etc. actually existed. currently Mac OS X and iPhoto are somewhat retarded in their ability (i.e. inability) to handle this type of info.
I certainly would find that more useful than Google maps integration.

They are supposedly not taking new orders until they can clear the backlog. By then who knows what Apple will have done. Somehow I do not think Steve is amused.

All I really need is the ability to tag a photo using Google Maps/Earth. It would be nice to have it tagged when I take it, but if I'm able to use an integrated iphoto/google maps to tag photos, and then be able to integrate the photos into google maps/earth, that's good enough for me.

You could use a markup editor like Textile or Markdown.
There are also things like HTMLarea that add the buttons and make it look almost like MS Word.
