I was taking an after-school course and I didn't hear anything until that finished at 4PM. My Mum was waiting for me outside in the car and as soon as I got in she asked me whether I had heard about what had happened. I said that I hadn't and she said that two planes had crashed into World Trade Centre buildings. I remember thinking, what the hell are the World Trade Centre buildings? I honestly hadn't heard of them before 9/11. I can also remember sort of shrugging it off, I didn't think it was as major then as it turned out to be.
So, we got home and my Dad was watching Sky News. I saw the pictures and literally couldn't say anything for about ten minutes. I quietly made my way upstairs and got changed out of my school uniform and then returned to sit with my Parents for the rest of the night watching various news programmes, truly shocked at what had happened.

I keep reading about MacRumors members running into each other at Target, Best Buy, etc. Since this is a huge forum, full of individuals with a shared love for Apple products, I thought I would throw this out there.
Have any of you members met each other in order to make a trade that is mutually beneficial? I ask because I have a brand new, unopened 32GB Black WiFi only iPad 2 that I bought from Target on Wednesday. I haven't opened it because I'm hoping to find a white version with the same specs.
Anyone within 50 miles of Champaign, IL (61820) have an unopened white version and looking to get the black version. If so I would be willing to meet and do a straight up swap somewhere in the middle of our locations.
Chances are slim, and I won't die if I have to wait but I thought I would take a shot. Also, if Target takes back iPads that are opened and don't charge a restocking fee then I guess I could just open the one I have and use it until I find a white version. Anyone else using this tactic?

:( Wouldnt this mean they will try break 4.3.1 instead hence a longer wait? :( I hope not...
I sure hope not. Plus I updated to 4.3.1....I hope that wasnt a mistake.

I don't think it is laziness as much as it is impatience. After the news that Comex jail broke the iPad 2 there hasn't really been any news or reason why the jailbreak hasn't been released yet. I know, from googling, that he is waiting to package it a little better. But following the various twitter accounts there really hasn't been any news.
My advice, just follow the blogs and they will let you know in a timely matter.

Hi there - I have been trying to get CS5 to draw some dashed lines for me around an arrow. I have been trying with Path shapes and Marquees.
I know how to use brushes to create a dashed line of sorts, for example, when you want to simple have a brush to draw a line across the page.
I also know how to use brushes to with paths, right click and stroke path.
But what I can't get working is to do it with any finesse. For example, if you want a nice dashed line around an arrow, the effect isn't particularly appealing using the above methods. Where the dashed line breaks for the gap, the angle of the break isn't angular to the shape of the arrow. By adjusting the scale didn't approve things.
If I use a small square brush with even spacing, the effect around the arrow isn't particularly appealing, it seems uneven and doesn't produce the long line short gap effect.
Any experts out there? Here are some failures:

Dasshed lines should be more like this:

Well, I don't have a removal story to relate, but I do have a large (probably about 4 inches long by 1 inch wide) black tattoo on my ankle that I desperately want to rid myself of. I definitely plan to have it removed at some point in my life, but I simply can't afford it right now. I'm hoping the treatments will become less expensive and more effective in the future.
So, jywv8, your story leads me to believe that my worst fears are true.... that tattoo removal is ultra-expensive and takes a long time. Is it painful too?
Anyway, good luck with the whole thing. I checked out a couple of sites on laser removal, and it honestly made me jealous to see those tattoos disappear like that! I'd give anything to just make mine go away!! Isn't it funny how stupid decisions you make when you're 17 can affect you the rest of your life?? :)

One hour prior to opening the count was 870 people in line for iPad 2.
this is you guys, right?

So the article mentions backing up your Library as a new feature included in iTunes 7. I don't really see it anywhere, anyone know what they're talking about?
Obviously I could just copy the library and folder myself (since I keep the library consolidated), but it would be nice to know how to do this directly from iTunes.

Yeah, sorry. Those too.:)
Thanks :) It would be sad if only Intel-chips could enjoy this.
With +- 80% PPC-users it would be a bad move from Apple to.

The US signed the treaty too.
Clinton signed Bush unsigned.:rolleyes:
I think in 2017 wars of aggression will come under the treaty,something that would have seen both Bushes,Blair,Clinton and many others hauled in front of the court.

Well everyone is predicting a few month delay. This is going to mess with my 2 year upgrade plan. Do I upgrade later or upgrade earlier...
Later.

ACD doesnt have HDCP now in anacronistic.I can't buy a display if i can't use bluray o ps3.For you when NEW ACD can come out?
So in theory Apple wont release Bluray until they release compatible displays. We could be waiting a long time before we see Bluray as an option then on Macs!

It's a mid 2010 MBP. I'm not sure what factors might be at play so I'll just list what I was doing before I tried turning it off. I turned the notebook on about 3 hours ago, the Internet works intermittently since my router is dying but while it was working I tried visiting macrumors. Halfway through loading the page the I lost Internet so I tried plugging it in directly to the modem and I realized the bar that contains the airport and battery was non responsive so I shut it down.
Right now, as it has been doing for the past hour, it is stuck at the blue shutdown screen. The little rotating loading thing is still rotating. Should I just wait for the battery to run out or what? Any help would be appreciated!

The iPhone is likely to be 10 times more successful than the iPod and he wanted to share the moment (introducing his/Apple's greatest achievment so far) with family.
What would you say? "naw, mom, why don't you just stay home for this one. you can catch the live feeds on macrumors.com...."
yeah. i didn't think so.

I had a 10% off coupon for buy.com, so I just bought it off them - I'm assuming that you already sold your iCurve anyway, cuz I would've rather bought it from you than from buy.com!

Growth stocks don't generally pay dividends. Dividend paying stocks are a safety move, trading dividends for share price growth, and are meant to attract investors. Apple doesn't need to do that.
Be happy with the insane growth.It has a 315 billion market cap, it's not "growing" to $1 trillion, sorry. Apple is a mature company.

We will see something similar to what happened last Fall? - Apple holding an event in september, then a couple weeks later another invite goes out saying "One More Thing..." like last year. and that event will be mid october or something?
Or are we done for the year?

Mine in the only 5ghz network
you are aware that the 5 GHz signal deteriorates over distance, though ? in a dual-band environment, wireless clients tend to connect to the strongest available signal which, given the right conditions, more often than not is the 2.4 GHz band, which is prone to interference.
also, there may be closed (hidden) networks nearby that tools such as iStumbler (http://www.istumbler.net/) won't pick up.
you might want to experiment with the radio channel your TC is broadcasting on - you may find a channel that will work better for your network.
finally, there are other sources of interference (see the article i provided the link for) that you may not be able to overcome (power lines, electrical railroad tracks, and power stations for instance).
in the end, the only reliable form of networking is a physical ethernet connection, however, i'm using powerline adapters quite successfully in my network.
good luck !

Hi. I'm a freelance designer...I guess I'm still just starting out. The holidays always make me think about trying my hand at designing prints for wrapping paper and gift bags. Most wrapping paper designs seem like something a competent designer could do with relative ease in Adobe illustrator...simple yet fun 2D vector designs of snowmen, snowflakes etc. I was wondering if anyone out there has tried this and if it's possible to successfully shop your designs around to manufacturers? Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Phil
