no, it's cheaper than entering into a contract. over here, the cheapest you can legitimately buy an iPhone for is about £899 (£269+£35/month for 18 months). €999 is £770.

intel is currently supplying many 3ghz processors for the Mac Pro's, the Quad 3.0ghz being bespoke just for apple. but not for portables. as far as i know, you can't get a fast (you can possibly find a dogged old P4 3.2ghz knocking around) 3ghz cpu for a portable, the fastest is the 2.6ghz...

one of our more fundamental board rules is no discussion of any kind about anything illegal. i'm not sure exactly where this stands, but i'm pretty sure it beaches EULA, and so is illegal. sorry....

i know what chmod 777 does, what is this one? why is bad? does it change every file on disk to read and write for everyone?

chemistry geek, if you think the 4th gen earbuds are good, you really want to invest in some in-ear canal phones (Shure etc), or at least mid-ear canal phones if they seem a bit pricey (Sony MDR-EX71, i got mine for £20). the difference, even with the mid-ear canal phones, is astounding.

i'm also getting this problem...

the Mac OS, from version 10.0 onwards is a completely different beast to all previous versions. 9.2 was the last version of what is now referred to as the classic os. while most software was ported over to work with the new Mac OS X, a lot of games never were, old DOS-era games like Monkey...

it sounds like what you want, is Tiger.

Thank you! the other one that winds me up is MacIntel or Mactel. it's a mac. possibly an intel mac.

i have an iBook G3 700mhz, and a dual 1.8ghz G5. considering one is about 4-6x as fast as the other, the OS is virtually indistinguishable. this isn't to say that the G5 is slow, but that the OS is so well optimised that it runs *amazingly* on my old G3 (Tiger). that's the impressive part...

i want my entire itunes library. knowing that it is possible, but not available, taints any purchase of iP[od/hone]. i want a 128gb iPhone. i'm willing to pay for it.

my flakey airport problems have toally stopped. about a week ago. no idea. 10.5.1, just upgraded about an hour ago. not notcied anything... although it fixes something i had notcied, so should be alright.

yes. i'd wait for 10.5.3, or actually, not bother. the way i see it, it's keeping a new mac ahead of the curve, it's keeping itself ahead of windows etc, but if the way you work is not hindered by tiger, i probably wouldn't bother.

yup. you work faster if you've got more space to work ;)

think of ram like the top of your desk, and your HD like a cupboard/storeroom/drawers/attic. when your desk fills up, it's temporary, but when it gets really full of stuff, it's harder to work, so you clear it (OS X clears it dynamically for you, so you do;nt have to worry). you've just gone...

SuperDuper! is like a much more polished version of CCC, but comes as shareware as a result. it is better though, and is updated often.

with dodgy bloody programs from unsanity.org, mighty mouse i think it was called for cursors. although these seem like happy happy programs, and the creators maintain that they're safe, it is their installer environment that caused all the BSOD problems with leopard. use at your own risk.

you can quicklook a bunch of images in full screen, but this doesn't do the coverflow thing... still presents images quite nicely though
