not sure who down-rated this because its a good point, and one that i was going to bring up, to mention that amazon has already launched their service, so why is that not significant enough to mention in the original post? Amazon is a pretty big player in terms of e-commerce and the cloud. and yes, i believe they only allow content purchased from the amazon store to be stored on their servers...i don't see why apple wouldn't follow suit. it's the only way to guarantee the legitimacy of the content. this might be unattractive to consumers, but apple doesn't want you to download music for free from other sources. they want you to buy from them, for obvious reasons, so it makes sense that they would only allow itunes-purchased media to be stored on their servers, too. if you don't like it, tough noogies. but i guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
This was downgraded because it's false. Amazon allows you to upload your own music. As will apple, according to the allthingsd rumor (take that for what it's worth...it's still a rumor)

Well I'm a pro user and i welcome the new FCP and it's price.
I have a decent budget since I work for a corporation.
If I lost my job or decided to go on my own, $299 would make it easier to deal with than a seat with Avid.
Got it in one. I just watched an Indy Mogul episode and in the credits it was produced, presented and edited by the same person. She also interviewed people for a vox pop. End result looked good too. (http://www.indymogul.com/beyondtrailer/episode/BTT_20110415_1/scream-4-movie-review)
At the Supermeet presentation, the guy said "And it's only $299, which means you don't have to decide who gets a copy" (or words to that effect). THe last bit was drowned out by the crowd, but he meant that you no longer have to give everyone FCP/Motion/Color/STP/Cinema Tools if all they need is FCP.

W-CDMA is just an air-interface standard. It's not a mixture of anything. It was originally designed for the Japanese FOMA system and was subsequently adopted by the 3G GSM people.
It is a CDMA air interface, but it's unrelated to IS-95, the popular US standard used by Sprint and Verizon that's frequently called "CDMA" as if the terms are interchangable. It doesn't contain any GSM, and it doesn't contain any IS-95. It is, however, like IS-95, a CDMA system, and UMTS, which uses it, is a version of GSM.
Not exactly.
From Wikipedia:
"More technically, W-CDMA is a wideband spread-spectrum mobile air interface that utilizes the direct sequence Code Division Multiple Access signalling method (or CDMA) to achieve higher speeds and support more users compared to the older TDMA signalling method of GSM networks. W-CDMA is a competitor to CDMA2000."
And if you look at this presentation on page 9: http://www.ieee.or.com/Archive/diversity_in_3g/diversity_in_3g.pdf
you'll see that the W-CDMA standard did evolve from GSM and CDMA (IS-95).
There are a lot of other references out there too, but these are the 2 I have readily available.

Oh come on .. Well know why this was done. Just go read the post about when it was released. I could see this coming a mile away. Either a they would do this or b they would start doing the audits they talk about with educational purchases. There must have been atleast 50 people who blatantly posted about abusing the discount on a "public forum" and hundreds maybe thousands more who thougt of it. Lets say I owned a store and I saw a forum online where 50 plus people said they knew a way to rip off my store, do you think I would leave it vulnerable? I dont know ... maybe this is the reason or maybe it isnt but I think ts great they did it. Because now all the people who thought they could do this and thought its no different from walking in a store and walking out with out paying for an item, will have to mow a few more lawns or bag a few more grocerys and pay what the rest of the honest people out there will. I know I know I am sounding uber negative here but not nearly as negative as someone trying to justify stealing on a "public forum".

Guess what - now a bunch of people who were going to buy this won't buy anything and just wait. Great. You're so obsessed with calling it stealing - HEY - guess what - Apple still makes money off of it and last time I checked making $ is better than not making $. We even see legitimate edu customers getting shafted by this. One poor guy's g/f is now stuck with an e-machine. Yeah that's just wonderful. Is it stealing if you go to Amazon.com and get the $100 discount on the MacBook? That's all it is - a $100 discount (historically speaking) and apple is, in fact, in the business of 1 - Making $ and 2- Increasing user-base (which results in making money). Hurry hurry, quick quick. Grab a calculator. What is greater. 10%*899*1000(just a guess as to how many purchases would be made by people who otherwise aren't going to get a Mac) or 0*0*0. That's right - if you sell things at any profit margin to people who otherwise wouldn't buy anything you are still doing better!!!!!!!!!! Get an economic brain in your head - or better yet - grab some common sense and get off your high horse.

I tried some of the Boddingtons Pub Ale when I was in Canada a few years ago, rather different from the version we have over here.
I wonder if that is the same version we get in the states? I also really like Old Speckled Hen Ale also. I don't know if they are the same from across the pond thou even thou it says it is brewed there.

I swear some of these rumors are nothing but a mole hunting expedition by Steve and company to handle security leaks inside Apple. Considering some of the directors and VPs over at Apple have Intelligence Community connections, this does not surprise me one bit. Curious what those in the current IC are doing instead of these reindeer games.
then let's start something completely ridiculous and see if they react in any way. like say they're making a 7" tablet or an icar. and just see how far it actually goes.

Hopefully it'll fail hard and GM will be forced to design a proper EV and not just another hybrid.
:rolleyes:
It's exactly what it needs to be. The market is not ready for a full on electric vehicle. Range, charge time, infrastructure, cost, etc is not where they need to be.
The Volt offers people to never use gas, but it is there if they need it. It's just the next stepping stone to eventually getting off gasoline. The Volt can appeal to everyone once the price of the technology goes down. The Leaf on the other hand appeals to a more limited group of people right now because it can only go 100 miles on a charge with a long recharging time.

Hey guys, although I've been a daily reader of Macrumors (and its forums) for about 3 years now I've never actually posted anything before (mostly because my views and thoughts are usually already expressed by members).
Anyway, I thought I'd actually add my 2 cents to this thread.
Although I would love to see Leopard released in MWSF I highly doubt it. What you have to remember is that Apple has been getting a lot of press coverage this year from the media. More and more reporters are coming to Apple's Media Events so they don't need to release Leopard in MWSF to steal the thunder from Vista's release. All they need to do is give a spectacular demo of OS 10.5 with all the "secret features" either at MWSF or shortly afterwards at a Special Media Event. If these "secret features" are in any way revolutionary (or really really cool) the media will eat it up and will focus a lot of their Tech News on Leopard in relation to Vista (instead of Vista vs. Tiger like they did this year). Vista will look like its 4 years behind Mac OS just from a FULL demo of Leopard even if they don't officially release it till April. Apple can do the "secret features" demo, make all the press fall in love with Leopard and then spend the next 2 months putting the final touches on everything while the media talks about how superior Leopard will be to Vista. And on top of that they will be talking about the newly released iTV, iPhone, etc... so Apple will be getting a LOT of press coverage in the beginning of 2007. It will be Apple's year not Vista's so they don't need to release it early. I do think they will release it around end of February/early March though.

im hoping this quietly fixes the unresponsive home button issue.
Last time I had an unresponsive home button, I took it into the Apple store, they said "oh you have a hairline crack right here, see it?" I said, "no" because it was too small to see, but then they handed me a brand new phone to replace it for free. Solved my problem :)

Has anyone looked at where their Mac Pro is "assembled"? The one I bought last year is "assembled in USA". I don't know what factor labor costs in putting these together, but I'm sure it's more than China.
On another note, it would be nice for the middle user if there were an iMac level desktop that was as easy to upgrade as a Mac Pro. All we've really got is the "work station/server" level Mac Pro. The rest are not intended to be user upgradeable other than RAM. Would there be a market for something in the middle?

The coal plants are so efficient at burning coal and that there is a net reduction in carbon for electric cars. Gas cars, even the best of them turn most of the energy in gas into heat. The heat comes ou t through the radiator and the tail pipe. But coal plants turn most of the coal into power and not so much waste heat.
A net reduction?? Time to invest in a calculator there Chris. Driving your electric car does not cause a reduction carbon levels.
Although your mention of waste heat is an interesting one. Modern gasoline engines are about 33% efficient. Meaning 33% of the energy produced by the engine is in the form of kinetic energy - motion to propel the car. The remaining 67% is lost as exhaust emissions, and waste heat.
Gasoline electric hybrid cars are slightly better, around 36% efficient. Modern turbo-diesel cars are better still, around 41% efficient. And the most efficient internal combustion technology of all is of course the turbo-diesel electric hybrid. The newest generation of locomotive trains are turbo-diesel electric hybrids and achieve an enormous 51% efficiency! I have my fingers crossed that we'll soon see turbo-diesel electric hybrid cars.... all the normal sized concept cars I've seen using this technology have achieved in the realm of 100 miles per gallon. Volkswagen even created a small light weight 2-seater turbo-diesel concept that got in excess of 200 miles per gallon. This is technology that is available right now today- we just need the automakers to put it into a passenger car and sell it to the public.
