I'm in need of a new camera. I'm currently using a Canon Powershot A630. I've had it for 5 years now, and it's served me extremely well. I love the image quality. Unfortunately, it keeps turning itself off now when I go to take a picture. It's been dropped, and I fear I damaged something.
I'm looking for a new point and shoot camera that takes quality pictures. I'm not interested in a DSLR due to cost and portability. I'd ideally like something a bit smaller than my old Canon. I'd gladly go for another Canon. I'd like it to take an SD card. Some degree of optical zoom is a must (I think that goes without saying). I'd really like a camera that still has a viewfinder. I'm a freak like that, I know, but in sunlight it's too hard to see LCDs and I want some way to work without one.
I'd really like the camera to have a geotagging feature. This would be awesome with Places in iPhoto.
Price range: sub $300.

Interesting read here. With the Superbowl approaching, I always like to hear the other news surrounding the game. This is about the power of a Super Bowl ad and how some sponsors have done post-air. Check it out (http://www.tvnewscheck.com/article/2011/02/02/48838/is-a-super-bowl-ad-worth-3m-ask-godaddy):
Since its first Super Bowl ad in GoDaddy has gone from single digits to nearly 50% of market share in domain-name registry. On average, the site says, it has picked up 5 percentage points of market share within the first 48 hours after a Super Bowl ad. It posted almost $1 billion in revenue last year.
The attraction for advertisers is playing to an audience of about 100 million people all at once. The 68 spots were sold out by Fox in October, an indication that companies are more eager than ever to appeal to the masses. Last year, some spots remained unsold until six days before kickoff.
Please feel free to link similar Super Bowl news you find interesting.:)

I guess that just kind of describes people's love-hate relationship with XP.
It's a work of creative genius! :D

This isn't new, EXIF has location tags for a while; but most of the existing solutions only record location and altitude, not azimuth. I think I've written here before explaining that if only a camera included azimuth tags (and of course the already-recorded zoom and lens size tags) a company like Google could harvest the web for images and build a virtual world with QuickTime-VR like technology that would allow one to virtually visit and travel through anywhere on earth, if somebody had taken of a picture of the right spot. You have issues of lighting, seasons, etc, but if people set their cameras' clocks this can be handled too. Actually if you have GPS the clock can be set from the GPS signal, so that's better too.

We watch carefully for any fraudulent use of Dropbox public links and will suspend suspicious links when they are detected. Links that use up more than 10GB/day for Basic (free) accounts and 250GB/day for Pro (paid) accounts are automatically suspended.
10GB/day bandwidth transfer for basic accounts, that's pretty impressive.

Hi all,
So I have that other thread regarding which, between a G4 iMac and G5 Powermac, I am going to possibly purchase, but I'm a little uneasy about the lack of OS discs. Googling and Craigslisting has a plethora of people who have discs for purchase, but isn't it kind of machine-specific? Where or how would I go about having a safe backup in the event I need/want to reinstall OSX.4? I looked on Apple's site as well and couldn't really find the answer... I realize as I'm getting closer to purchasing an older Mac for my theatre's playback system, not having the install discs if something happens makes me nervous!
Thanks for your help!

A great place to grab Jag for cheap is OWC, or eBay.
Jag never shipped on DVD-ROMs, unless they are the system restore discs, and even then I believe it was CDs.
The Wallstreets are a nice machine if you have enough RAM and a big HD in them. And if the person who sold you one didnt really screw you over by selling you a dying machine. -.-

I have a friend with a similar machine where I think the graphics chip is getting flaky -- replacement logic boards are surprisingly expensive, though I found a couple places that will fix it mail-order for around $350 US. Apple might even fix it for around that price too. I'll be interested to see what you come up with.

Yes.
Once you flash the card with the EBC firmware, and the desired disk on the card has been selected as the boot location in OS X, it will boot (array, JBOD, or pass through).
So I decided to go with the Areca 1880ix-12 since word on the internet :) is it outperforms the latest offerings from ATTO. Does it come with an 8088 cable as well to connect external storage solution or just the 8087 internal?
Also with this MaxConnect HDD adapter solution for 3rd pary RAID should I go with this one with no miniSAS cable:
MaxConnect BackPlane Attachment for Mac Pro [2010] Systems
4 pcs of MaxConnect RAID Attachment (4 Disk Drives)
2.5 inch Form Factor Disk Drive - SAS/SATA
3.5 inch Form Factor Disk Drive - SAS/SATA
Mounting Screws for the Disk Drive
Or this one with miniSAS:
MaxConnect BackPlane Attachment for Mac Pro [2010] Systems
4 pcs of MaxConnect RAID Attachment (4 Disk Drives)
2.5 inch Form Factor Disk Drive - SAS/SATA
3.5 inch Form Factor Disk Drive - SAS/SATA
Mounting Screws for the Disk Drive
MiniSAS Cable for the Controller
I presume the Areca controller already comes with an 8087 miniSAS to 4xSATA header cable, do I still need the miniSAS cable that MaxConnect are including in that latter package ? In general do you I need any other accessories besides the ones that come with this MaxConnect pack to connect my 4x SATA HDD's to the controller ?
As for flashing I'll take your advice and do it through firefox, the older version too and not the new 4 that just came out. So it's browser management\flashing utility is available irrespective of whether the card is flashed to EFI yet or not? Considering that it would by default be with BIOS I presume this to be the case?
Thanks..

When the first plane hit, I was shaving in my bathroom. As soon as it was on CNN, my roommate yelled for me to look at the news. When the reports of the second plane hit, I was standing naked in my bedroom, dripping wet, razor in hand. Then I called British Airways to find out what the deal was (I was supposed to be on a plane out of Atlanta to Edinburgh at 6:30). At the time, the airports had only been closed until 5:00, and I was told my flight was still on, and to go ahead and hop in the car and drive for 3 hours. Drove to Atlanta, turned around, came back. Made about a dozen phone calls to let everyone know I was still in country and alive and well. Rescheduled the trip for the following Tuesday, and spent the next two weeks trying to hide my American accent in the UK.

I would like to throw my hat in with this...
In scotland, there's loads of people called mac and macintosh. ;)
Nice Try. But hardly prize worthy.
Now if you had sold your children on the black market for a mac pro and a 30" ACD - that might be considered really fanatical ;):p:D

Yeah that sounds like an issue. ;)
I thought it might be something to do with the mapping since the cheatsheet said command and you were saying control. Modifier keys across Windows and Mac have always been a bit funky.
Maybe it just needs a good cleaning? How old is the keyboard you ruined? You might be able to salvage it with a trip through the dishwasher. Put it in the top rack, don't use soap and turn off any heat options. Then let it dry for 3-5 days. This isn't a good trick for modern membrane keyboards but works wonders on older keyswitch style keyboards.

Yes with Game Center this has the chance at competing with 360 and PS3/steam etc and now that Unreal engine is ported to the iOS Gaming on the i Devices have no where to go but up.
You're not on Twitter here, sentences!
Right. No I don't think they could compete. Maybe in the casual market but then it would be up against the Wii which I don't think anyone can do just yet.

oh ya, could someone explain what they mean by "gapless playback"?
On CDs (or any other physical recording) sometimes artists have one song run right into another - you know it's changed because you're familiar with it or you happen to look up at the CD track counter and see it go from 3 to 4 but the music hasn't stopped. Digital tracks had a bad side effect of putting a break between tracks. Gapless apparently knows when the original recording intended no gap and then replicates that on the iPod / iTunes replay. This breakthrough also available on cassette tape. :rolleyes:

Hey, I forked over my $20 on 12/31 and still haven't received my link for ad free home page. I though maybe it was the holidays causing the delay. Maybe Arn is runnig some big scam. :D
