Thanks but how do i do that without loosing that wonderful UI of mac? Even more so without inviting viruses, Trojans and the like.
Theres really no way to do it on OSX if they are windows programs. As long as you use a bit of common sense, you shouldn't have a problem with Windows on the Mac. Any virus, trojan, or malware will only affect the Windows partition, not OSX. If all you are doing is installing Android stuff on the Windows partition, you should be okay.

Nice. I was getting so annoyed at the guys in the tukwila thread talking about how cool they are.
I'll be there. 12:00 AM? I'm a black friday veteran but I think you may be overestimating things a tad. I'll be there at three.
I saw people setting up camp the night before at 9:00 PM. I don't want to be that far towards the end and besides I'm going to be working while camping out so it's win/win :)

I'm going to a university this year and I've saved up some money to buy either base model Air or iMac.
I'm going to receive a ipad2 from ma uncle and I was wondering if buying the imac was worth it bc its better performance.
Would it be alright if I take the ipad to classes and work in the iMac?
What I do in the computer are gaming, news, youtube, and music

I would wait. ...
2.4Ghz vs 2.0Ghz in the same line of processors isn't that big a CPU boost. the 2011 Mini will likely involve a move to Sandy Bridge which is a big CPU boost.
If the new mini gets sandy bridge it will be 50 percent faster then your machine at a minimum, more like 80 or 90 percent faster.

Yesterday I ordered my first MAC: MBP.
So im asking myself, if there will be maybe a "cheap" update solution to Leopard.
Some1?

I'll be doing the same probably. Just booked the day off.
Shame you can't get your place in the queue then go watch a film!

That's all fine and well, but I just want a version that doesn't require X11 and can print.

Yeah, give them a call. They are nice and reasonable... most of the time. Give them a story on how broke you are and that you need this very badly. lol

'Painfully Slow' a relative term of course, but is correct in the fact that you will always get faster performance from native hardware.
That being said, I thin going to '98 is a good idea. Not as much Eye Candy to emulate. You probably won't feel much speed issues if you are using Excel, or Word, though those are available in OS X BTW.
But if you wish games - not a good idea. That truly is painful, and not what VPC was designed for.
Personally, I only find the need to use a PC for a few Apps like Summation, Carpe Diem, TrialMax (Legal apps), and MS Project (though FastTrack 8 is OS X native)
What softwares do you need VPC to run?

I've been waiting for a reason to stop using MS office but I don't see that happening even with this update. I really want to buy iWork but I feel like I'd have to relearn everything and end up with an inferior program.
I think it is sad how much Apple pushes the fact that Macs can run MS office. It's a slap in the face. Seeing that iWork only has two apps it's understandable they don't mention it in the commercials.
Btw, what was the glitch with Calculator? How do you screw that up?

Hi. I need some help with a malfunctioning color stylewriter 2500. Whenever I try to make a test page, it just passes through the printer without printing anything. I've already replaced the ink cartridges. Any ideas?

Thanks everyone but no luck!
Use OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/), it's free and handles .ppt files great. It has its limitations but will serve your needs and you can't beat the price! :)
I tried this, and after waiting nearly an hour to download it and X11 from the apple website, i opened it and there was lot of error messages . i don't know what went wrong . i just uninstalled - even that didn't work, i had to delete the files myself which i hope worked.
but thanks for trying though!

I agree that you should delete the preferences first, but this problem it is also a sing that you have a damaged true type font on your system.
The hard part is to find it and remove it from your system, that should fix your indesign.
Illustrator does the same when a font is damaged.
Good luck

I would think the rendering would be a bit on the slow side, not the mention the lack of visual real-estate to get all the windows open thqat FCP uses with tools and whatnot.

Thank you for the quick response, Night Spring.
You were right - the only choices are to stay at 3.2 or update to 4.3.2.
However, iTunes would not let me restore from my 4.3.1 backup unless I update to 4.3.2. I guess that's logical since the newer 4.3.1 ver would have certain features (like folders) that are not supported by the older 3.2 ver hence the need to update first.
On that basis, I decided to take your advice and update to 4.3.2. Was stumped for a while when I encountered a "3194 error" but later was told by the service centre that it could be caused by Apple's server being shut-down (seems it happens on Sundays in particular). All's resolved now and I am currently doing the restore from my back-up.
Thanks again for the help! Now for the hopefully not-too-long wait for the untethered jb!

Yet another thread started by someone too lazy to do a search!
impatience and laziness.
In all seriousness, its more stupidity. It takes more time and effort to start your own thread and wait for people to answer than it does to simply google.:rolleyes:

Temp is quite normal (it's about 60 C). Card is dying slowly IMHO. At the end it will just stop giving video. I've replaced few 6600s with similar symptoms.
New thermal paste won't hurt ofc, but I doubt it will solve the problem.

5. Who is the other admin of Macrumors?
I thought that arn was the only administrator. This if the first time that I have heard of this subject. I will admit that I don't know any of the answers. Could someone PM the answer to #5?

I am selling an 8GB Apple iPhone. This iPhone was purchased as a refurb from AT&T on March 17, 2008 - less than 3 months old. I updated the warranty with Apple and it now reads:
iPhone
Serial #:YM724FK0***
United States
Limited Warranty
2. Warranty information about your iPhone
Our records indicate that your product is covered under Apple's Limited Warranty which is estimated to expire on March 17, 2009.
Your product is eligible for complimentary phone support which is estimated to expire on March 21, 2010.
The iPhone is in perfect working condition - there is some light scratching on the back of the phone, and an extremely small scratch on the upper-right quadrant of the front screen which is about 2mm long (see pictures). You can only see that scratch in certain lighting conditions - usually only when there is a white background on the phone.
Due to these slight scratches, I am willing to let it go for $300 + your method of shipping to wherever you may be. These phones have been moving on eBay for upwards of $600 in the past few days - they are coming down a bit now, but this is still a substantial savings.
Included with the iPhone is everything that came with the AT&T Refurb box, as well as a Power Support Crystal Film Set [not pictured]. There is one left - the first one got dirty and I had to scrap it, but the other one is brand new.
* 8GB iPhone
* Stereo Headset with mic
* Dock (still in original wrapping)
* Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable
* USB Power Adapter
* Power Support Crystal Film Set
On the off-chance that you live in Cleveland, I am willing to meet in person so you can check out the iPhone and pay in person. I work downtown in the warehouse district, so meeting in that area would be ideal.
eBay: hoehnen3 (196+ 100% positive)
heatware: mxpiazza (7 positive)
Also sold, bought and traded with many people on these forums.
Please don't troll, hijack, etc - post, PM or email if you are interested, if not, thanks for your time.

VPC is great for compatibility with easy-on-the-processor Windows programs (small database apps and the like), but if you want to play any sort of modern game, you won't get any kind of decent performance with VPC. I've heard of some people playing games from years ago with success, but as many will tell you, don't even bother to try .. it's just too slow.

If Michael Moore is gonna insist wealth is pubic domain, I want a piece of his mansion. That guy is not as rich as Bill Gates but he's still friggin rich.
As far as taxation, you can't raise taxes on the poor because they don't have anything. You can only raise taxes on the rich. And you can't stimulate the economy during a slump without spending, which is why taxes are needed. It's a crappy dilemma, not everyone is gonna be happy. I'd settle for taxing the rich too if I was a politician.
