I see people talking about just buying an Air and returning it. What exactely is the policy if they buy online? Are these people paying restocking fees for simply returning an Air??

Hi Everyone
I purchased this laptop for a bit of fun and to have a play with a mac being a windows man but liking the feel of the mac my problem is that the OS is in Dutch and there dosen't seem to be a way of changing it i have tried installing OS7.5 again but accidently made it launch as a text file and carn't seem to change it back.
I have a copy of OS9 but need more memory to install it (not easy to find at the right price).
If any one can help with any of the above i will be very greatful

Why did this make it on macbytes?
Some piece of software getting a revision to v0.11? Am I missing the newsworthyness of this? does everyone use it or something?

hi
Does anyone in the forum have experience with the 2 monitors I listed.
Both are under 350.00, much less than apple cinema display.
Samsung LED from newegg
viewsonic LCD from amazon
Will be using with 13" i7 macbook pro.
Will be using mostly photoshop, nothing crazy.
please if you have one of these monitors let me know.
thanks in advance !!!!!

Lacking really they have a good back catalog if you browse they have everything from the 80s He-Man to the matrix and pirates trilogy and new relases like train your dragon and Karate kid i think this is actually a little better than the PSN store now.

Are there any other options besides a $99 software? That's a little pricey for my budget.
Not that I know of ... good comes at a price.

His asking price is too high. As others have pointed out, you can get a much better one completely new for not much more than he wants for his used one. In fact, if you wait for a refurbished one direct from Apple, you can get really close to his price and still get a much better current model.

the education "version" is the full retail version. no need to be snappy.
Wrong Zach. Apple's educational versions of their Pro software have "no-commerical use allowed" EULAs.
This is now sold, no thanks to the thread-crappers and FUD-spreaders.
Thanks to all others who contribute positively :)

thank you , but still the same result no matter how often i even show windows that ati catalyst thing or how often i let it run windows is totally refusing to see that there is a ati x1600 inside and still using a standard vga driver for a 16mb card
not even on a hackintosh i came across such problems neither on my gaming rig's which obviously run windows natively
or do i think to difficult
update :
YES i did think to difficult , after reinstalling OSX and then windows7 via bootcamp and not even try to install any downloaded drivers windows 7 updated the ati x1600 from alone after running windows update , now even windows 7 is using the native resolution :)
and windows 7 is actually really speedy compared to snow leopard , can't beat tiger which runs on another partition but still a huge improvent over windows vista which made me switch to linux back then
now i got a real all in one computer.. Mac OS 10.4/Mac OS 10.6/windows 7/LINUX (mint,debian ,fedora,red hat)all on separated partitions and all OSes work natively

Upon reading various google searches, it appears some users hack in firmware into their ipods, couldn't one simply take the older firmware of the 5/5.5g video and place it into the 6g classic?

Yes, of course. You are essentially asking if one computer can access files on another computer in the same network. This, obviously can be done very easily. The time capsule, will not store any of this information.
Now if you want to ask how this can be done or how this can be prevented, that will be determined by the security on the machines.

The CPUs bench pretty close to the same.
Late2009 - i7-860 - 5,566
Mid2010 - i7-870 - 6,101
Mid2011 - i5-2500 - 6,469 (This CPU is 3.3GHz, the iMac i5-2500S runs at 2.7GHz.)
http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html
There are no benches out for the i5-2500S in the iMac yet, which runs at 2.7GHz so the closest for right now is that i5-2500 at 3.3, when you factor in the downclock they probably bench right around the same.

lol, your welcome. It's a great machine. Really upgradeable. I mean, seriously, even 5 years from now, I think if I put in a 512mb vid card, 8gb of ram and two 400gb (or larger dependent on tech then) harddrives, something tells me it would at least keep up ok. I mean, look at the B&W G3 towers, those are still pretty capable and I don't feel that they are at all as upgradeable comparing them to other computers of their era, and comparing this to computers of it's era (memory wise.) Of course, you can't upgrade the processor on these boxes though.
**edit**
Actually it'd be like comparing to the G4 tower lol, even better.

To all,
Just bought a G3 700mhz and a G4 tower 450mhz. They aren't terribly slow but slow enough to where I want to clean them up a little bit. I have the free version on cocktail and XSlimmer (which only allows up to 50mb of defrag capabilities).
I know that Macs "never need to be defragged" but I am just wondering if there are free tools comparable to XSlimmer?
Im running 10.4.11 so would running a software update help out at all?
Just wondering, thanks to anyone who answers.

All but wmv3, which is unfornatley used a lot these days. So you'll be stuck with WMP9 for a while... :(
Thanks for the correction. Needless to say I don't use the app much, I try to stay away from WMV and MS in general (except for Entourage, I'll give them that much credit) ;)

I've upgraded my Beige G-3 as far as I think it can be, to OS 9.2.2 and I would like to be able to run the OSX Panther I bought. Any tips?
Also, can't Apple come out with an upgrade "kit" for all of us who have kept the old dinosaurs running all these years??
Thanks for helping this newbie to the forum.

Hi,
Before anything..this is my first post. Hi and thank you to everyone that reads.
I`m having a problem with iWeb SEO Tool with one of my sites ( the one that is published via FTP, the other ones are in process, not yet publish). I publish it to a folder, with the purpouse of editing title tag and adding google apps etc, and the publish it via SEO tool. When i look for the publishing folder in my desktop and try to open it with the SEO tool the software crashes.
To see if it was the software i try opening one of my other pages that in not yet published on a FTP and it worked fine.
When i look for the site`s file and open one by one of the files that it let me open inside the publishing file it works but it seem that is managing mi site`s files as independent sites (a world simbols appear besides each site`s page).
If there is something you can do for me let me know please.
Thanks in advance.

Well, we won. 14-13 over a semi-rivalry team. I had a pretty good game, threw for about 180yds, a TD pass, but could have been WAY WAY better.
First drive, I threw a 40 yard pass to a kid with great hands, hit him in the end zone, in the chest, and he dropped it. Next drive I got my left shoulder separated, but it went back in. Hurt really bad, but i sat out a series then went back in.
Came back and threw a 66 yard TD pass to the kid that dropped one earlier. It was crazy, it was a quick play action pass, with the tight end over the middle running a seam. Right when I did the fake, a linebacker came up to sack me, I jumped up and threw the ball, my buddy snagged it and took it to the house.
So it was 7-7 at half. My shoulder was dead, but it was numb haha. So first drive I threw a fade to our star reciever, he got it for about 50 yards. We were down on their 20 yard line, I threw a corner to the same kid, he dropped it in the end zone for another TD. Next play we ran a pitch to the runningback, he fumbled.
A few series go by, we score when our RB breaks loose, so its 14-7. 3 min left in the game, they score, but miss the extra point. 14-13, their D shut us down, they got hte ball back, went for a 40 yard field goal, we blocked it, won.
Crazy. Here are a few pics that hte local paper took...
