I am debating the purchase of a Mac Pro. I will buy three drives in addtion to the stock 1 TB. Furthermore, I like to take pictures with my point and shoot. Curently, I have around 10-12 GB of photos and less than one GB of videos. The plan is to buy an entry level dslr later this year, which leads to my question.
How large of a hard drive should I buy? Will 500-750 GB suffice? I will SHARE the hard drive with other saved data too. Is this a problem?
I know this question is subjective, but bare with me! I figure filling up a 320 GB drive than buying another drive will get old fast. Of course, assuming I take that many photos. Maybe the 320 is a good option? Nonetheless, all suggestions are appreciated.

That is not strictly true. The MS purchase of Apple shares was little more than a token gesture to show that MS still believed in the company.
Not really. Microsoft had no reason to show that they "believed" in Apple. The investment was a condition of legal settlement. See post #98.

For training you might want to go through the forum or the apple tech support forum, you'll get to see common issues and how to solve them. Try to think of the question they might ask you, but more importantly, put yourself in a place that you can answer those kind of questions. Think of more general stuff so you have your mind set to respond to precise questions. What is Apple to you? or what ever... Really, you can't think of everything they might ask you and have a canned response, how is that even an interview if you already know what you'll say. Be sharp and don't ********, if you don't know, say you're not sure and make an educated guess.
As for looks, I think you should just go there like you usually look, clean and honest. Be yourself, that's why they're interviewing you.

Take through view finder = fast
Take picture while looking at LCD = slow
This. Reason #435,681 why live view should not be on an SLR.

[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.

This is the vulnerability those security pundits have been warning was coming.
What would I rather do: Hack into Apple's servers to implement a legally very dubious unlocking service for $170 (which is obviously highly overpriced, because Apple could do the same thing for free if they wanted to) that might open me up to litigation from Apple, or create a website that collects $170 a shot from gullible iPhone owners, do nothing, and run with the money?

I've heard 2 different stories on the tickets @ Best Buy.
1 - They are not able to be redeemed until tomorrow, March 12th
2- They can be used after launch @ 5 PM.
Any ideas on what the official story is?
Thanks!

Any idea on store opening times and when's the best time to que up. Going to one of the stores in Middlesbrough, Stockton or Darlington.
I think I said it in the "Newcastle, UK" thread but I've been to the three previous iPhone launches at Darlington's O2 store and there's never been a queue before 8.30 for a 9am opening.
I can't vouch for the other two but Darlo might be an easy place to get a 4 :)

What router do you have? Some routers have built in VPN server support. If not, you can try EasyVPN for windows. I found a link here:
http://www.comodo.com/home/email-security/vpn-access.php
To find the Time warner search domain name go to your router's setup page. It should have a summary page and tell you your public IP address and also the search domain. If you can't find it, PM me, I'll help you out.
I have a dlink 655 which doesn't support ddwrt or have a default vpn.
i know my public ip and the search domain seems to be socal.rr.com
I downloaded easyvpn and set it up but am having problems on where to input all this information, its sure not as easy as the mac version.
Also I'm not sure how to PM you or I would, I just made this account and am brand new to these forums, pm me and I'll gladly reply!

Anyone know what the button 914 on the top right of the "vPod" screen is meant to signify in Figure 17? Could it be WiFi signal strength?

Why didn't you vote "yes?"
You so fundamentally don't understand the concept of taxes, I had to click other. What you make, after the price you pay to make that money (taxes), is yours to keep. Once you've paid the taxes that were due, the government can not, and should not, be allowed to cause you for forfeit that wealth.
Your fundamental misunderstanding of taxes makes me smile sometimes.

@Coleman2010 I am in the UK. Yes, $50/mo, PayPal. Drop me a line to optimumabroad at gmail and let's chat. Let's see if it works (I don't know how much bandwidth the App requires and whether it will work given the 100 msec or so RT latency, but it's sure worth trying).
Thanks!

They had all wifi blacks, and all but the 16 wifi whites. They had enough for all tickets given out, but that may be about it.

Sorry about late reply, crazy hours at work.
It shows that your only 22! language acrobatic funny rappers have more lyrics than the original hard core rappers?? what?
[snip]
Damn Need I go on to school you?!!! :D ;) :cool:
well i was more thinking about hip hop/rap in my own language ;) and in german it's sounds like hypocrisy singing about ghetto and the whole gangsta thing .. most are simply copying US ones
(i didn't knew a single rapper you mentioned, not interested that much, after all i'm more the rock'n'roll guy ;) so you would need a lot of cars to drag me into hiphop-school)
about age: try finding lots of (male) hiphop fans older than 20 over here... they are the exception and not the rule.. for me hiphop is still teenager music stuff simply because of the people who like it over here .. if you don't grew up with it you won't like it later

Agreed, but the latest nano is pretty poor, was surprised, seems very unapple-like. There is room for a good ultra portable small music player (gyms etc, I see so many ipods) and for them to please, please make a good quality headphone as standard, the ones that come with ipods (of any price) is pathetic. So, let's see what they do.
I bought a new nano specifically for the gym, I have a 160gb Classic that stays in my car, and an iPhone. Still love the dedicated for music iPods.
