    Syncing a Blackberry and os x?

    Thinksecret claims team has been fired or moved to different departments. I own Aperture but can't get over the hardware demands. A DP 2Ghz G5 5GB ram and an X800 graphics card: Aperture is still a little sluggish!

    newer video cards on the way?

    Can anyone tell me if newer ati/nvidia cards are on the way soon? I just got a copy of Aperture and while it runs fine it gets extremely bogged down once you apply more than 5/6 adjustments to an image. My 9600XT 128MB card is more than likely the problem as Aperture relies heavily on CoreImage...

    Why wma?

    Just read this morning that HMV (high street chain that controls 25% of UK cd sales) is going to launch their own digital store. They have chosen wma despite the fact that this will lock 75% of their market out. Perhaps others can help but I'm stumped as to why online music stores go with...
