here's more http://www.tuaw.com/2011/03/24/ipad-2-jailbreak-imminent/
No idea what this means but i think it's good lol
This would be a tethered jailbreak, correct? I certainly wouldn't risk it on an iPhone, but I might could get by with a tethered jailbreak on an iPad. At least until an untethered one comes out.

[QUOTE=MacRumors;12429717]Image (http://www.macrumors.com/2011/04/20/apple-reports-best-non-holiday-quarter-ever-with-5-99-billion-profit-for-q2-2011/)
Apple today announced financial results (http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/04/20results.html) for the first calendar quarter and second fiscal quarter of 2011. For the quarter, Apple posted revenue of $24.67 billion and net quarterly profit of $5.99 billion, or $6.40 per diluted share, compared to revenue of $13.50 billion and net quarterly profit of $3.07 billion, or $3.33 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Gross margin was 41.4 percent, compared to 41.7 percent in the year-ago quarter, and international sales accounted for 59 percent of the quarter's revenue. The numbers represent the best non-holiday quarterly revenue and earnings in Apple history, just missing last quarter's $6 billion profit.
Apple shipped 3.76 million Macintosh computers during the quarter, a unit increase of 28 percent over the year-ago quarter. Quarterly iPhone unit sales reached a record 18.65 million, up 113 percent from the year-ago quarter, and the company also sold 9.02 million iPods during the quarter, representing 17 percent unit decline over the year-ago quarter. Apple also sold 4.69 million iPads during the quarter.Apple's guidance for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 includes expected revenue of $23 billion and earnings per diluted share of $5.03.
This quote for some reason does not show up.
That margin is truly ridiculous. Great for stockholders but really bad for consumers. A 41% profit margin, they could sell their $1000 computers for 800 dollars and still make the industry average profit.
With that kind of margin don't say they don't cost more than they should. But people still buy them because to them, they can be worth every penny.
I'm not saying that they are overpriced by definition because people still love buying them and it is the market who sets the actual value of an object. But they could lower their prices quite a bit.

One thing i found strange was that for example. Is that if I email my Mum
and her name is Wendy. Now if I put in Wendy and add the email to
sender it wont send.
But I have to type in Mum has I have that in my address book and then
attach to sender the email will send.
Dont know if your doing that for example.

A Mini is also not a bad idea.
1) Get a refurbished one to save some bucks. Max out the RAM yourself - save bucks over Apple doing it.
2) Add FW external HDDs for storage. They can be used on a Mac Pro or an iMac later on.
3) With the money saved on the Mini, you can get a high quality monitor. Also transferable to a Mac Pro or an iMac later (as a 2nd monitor). A good monitor can used for several to many years comfortably. Imho, it's better to produce better photos (because the monitor is accurate) and wait some extra seconds, than to get a faster computer but put out photos with inaccurate colour.
4) Start investing in the SW tools that you will want/need. These are also transferable to a new system.
5) When you finally spring for a fully loaded, 24 core, 512MB RAM, 72 TB Storage, 4 graphic cards, 4 Thunderbolt ports iMac Pro Supreme Tower all of the peripherals and software moves too.
It's how I got started. A small Mini with a 23" ACD. Everything I bought to go with it also had to work with a (future) Mac Pro. Eventually I was working with Photoshop files that were approaching 1GB, on a Mini with only 1GB of memory (the days when opening a Mini involved spludging).
There was a lot of HDD thrashing. I was afraid that PS would crash, so I saved often. It took so long to save a big file, that I could go out and mow the lawn or do the dishes while it thrashed away. I got a lot of housework done that summer. Ironically, that Mini never crashed. Not once.
Eventually I got my current Mac Pro, and it was like moving from steam trains to warp drive. All the peripherals and SW moved too, so the only cost was the Mac Pro itself plus the extra HDDs I added at the time.
That Mini then got hooked up the TV where it served up all of our music throughout the house, and movies to the TV for a couple of years. I've upgraded that Mini to a newer one but the first one still works, and I keep it as a spare.
Nah... I just feel sentimental for it. What a workhorse!
Thank You for sharing as that is what I am thinking. I will buy 1333 ram no matter the machine I take home. I saw several refurb minis a few days ago, they were $500 or so.

Hi all,I recently took a lend of a copy of Panther from the office to spruce up my old g3 imac. I no nothing really about macs in general have worked with PC's for 15 or so years. The problem being I turn of the imac hold down 'c' the imac reads the CD for a while them stops and continues to boot from the harddrive. I clicked on the cd and opened it and all I see is a file called mac osx10.3.sit I then opened this using stuffit and then i see another file named something similar to the original. I then opened this and get an error message the application that created this file can not be found. What should I do? I cant ask any one in the office about this problem as Panther was installed by an engineer who came out to update our 2 or so imacs.

Yes. Switches do not strip MAC addresses like routers do.

If server side programming isn't an option for you, another option is to add a unique id to all your pages (<body id="homepage">) then use that in your CSS to style it differently. I prefer the server-side approach myself, but I'm a developer.

Hi,
Ok, i know this site is by it's nature about gadgets, but for me it's all about the carrier.
I've had 8 different carriers in the last 10 years. Many of them have merged/
changed names/gone out of business.
When i see people complaining about their carrier, it's always about coverage
dropouts. Folks, ALL carriers will have SOME dropouts, especially if you live
in a challenging physical terrain.
What i found more aggravating is how obtuse and unresponsive these companies are. This is an area of modern commerce that is barely regulated.
Politicians have been lobbied to allow a wild west mentality for an industry
that has insinuated itself into most of our lives in just a short time.
I've had carriers routinely sneak in extra charges. Representatives have no
compunction about lying. I don't know about you, but i don't have time to
audit my bill every month with a magnifying glass.
Each carrier was worse than the last. The most annoying thing? Being
put on hold for 40 minutes, than disconnected. This is intentional. They don't want to be accessible.
Finally the last time i switched i did a search to see which companies had the least complaints. Although the billing practices overall in the industry
are atrocious, i've had the best experience overall with my current carrier.
This trumps any pleasure i would get from having a phone that integrates
well with my macs.
The only thing worse than crappy cell phone companies would be someone that thinks the government could make it better. What motivation does the govt have to make cell phone compainies better? Votes. That's it. Votes. The only motivation that government has. So they'll promise you that they'll make it better. You'll vote for them. They'll spend money regulating whatever you think needs regulating. They'll create a branch that costs some upzillion dollars. Cell phone companies will be forced to comply with some ridiculous something or other. They'll up your bill by placing a charge on it called the "rsoo tax" to pay for it. The cell phone companies will all still treat you badly. Vote with your feet. Keep switching carriers. Don't blow your cash on idiotic features for idiotic prices. The companies will comply and compete for your business.

If they put it on that is a huge plus. I ordered something similar were you have to spray and squeegee. It ended up in the trash after 15 minutes :confused:
I recently purchased and installed the black icarbon with much better success. I like the look and feel. It has a bottom cover as well but I did not take a picture of that.:apple::D

I think they removed it, but according to Andrew Welch (president of Ambrosia Software), "Everything that was free in the older, free WireTap continues to be free in WireTap Pro. You can use it to your heart's content to record AIFF recordings, and never pay for it." If you use other features, an unregistered message is dubbed over your recordings until you register.
Hey folks! Hex Monkey, could you give a link for this quote? I downloaded wiretap pro, but all the documenatation provided suggests that one can only use it for 30 days for free, regardless of what file type one's using...thanks!

Vim.
Old school. The best editor for working close to the metal.
When I first started programming in the early 90's I was a Windows dev in a Solaris shop. The unix guys could cut code many times faster than any Windows dev. You don't need a mouse. You just need your keys. In fact I'm just getting back to programming after a 9 year absence and I'm using vi with Tcl, Java and Javascript.

Four stars.
This song is very dynamic and has a lot of elements.
The strongest points are the intro and the the bass or baritone guitar at the end, a very nice touch.
The use of restraint without launching into an extended Dragonforce or Joe Satriani showoff solo was a good move. The prudent use of double bass on the drums was good as lesser bands would over do the double bass drum beat.
The background vocals added a good touch as I thought the lead singer was a little weak, thus my overall rating being 4 stars instead of 5.

... of capturing - storing - the raw stream of h.264/mpeg2 hd movie data on your harddrive and editing it with any HD capable movie application, I would say yes.
But playback, no way, if it is 1080i/p material. For that you need a G5 with at least 2GHz just to be on the save side. 720p is possible without framedrops on any G4 faster than 1Ghz, I think, with lots of RAM included.
Encoding DV into h.264 is taking ages right now with pure processor speed, even in PC land.
E.g., I myself can capture mpeg2 transport streams from my cable tv via ethernet to my iBook G3 500 Mhz without any problems. I can edit it, store it, transfer it, but playback is always choppy as hell on that machine. Only if I transfer it to DVD, I get perfect playback, but only because Apples DVD player app does use hardware accelerated mpeg decoding from the graphic card.

Almost certainly the bottom case is wrong - that is why the heatsink screws have nowhere to screw into. There are 3 bottom cases - you need version 2.
I suspect you have v1 or v3. Check the part number - should be in the bottom left corner of the optical drive bay. The part number for the bottom case for your model is 815-9744.

Love how you can just come up with a chart and say anything these days and not have to back it up with numbers (done all the time for both iOS and Android)
"For this year�s report, Flurry once again leverages publicly available market data in the news, released by companies such as the NPD Group (e.g., Gamasutra�s Behind the Numbers series). We combine this data with our own estimates of game category revenues from iOS and Android devices"
so they do not even have actual sales numbers for iOS/Android - I use a report like this at work to justify anything and I think I would get fired on the spot :rolleyes:
