Oh, and back on topic, some kind fella has put the images up here: http://www.ckelley.co.uk/neowin/tigershots/ so I thought to thank him for it we should suck up all his bandwidth.

So, are you saying I shouldn't believe the writing you quoted?? Anyway, I will believe it for now, as it seems to prove that I was right, and that the name 'Aluminum' was given to the element by it's discoverer before the name 'Aluminium', and that your statement "...but they ALL agree that...

I hate to burst your bubble, but no. http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/content/elements.html also read: http://59.1911encyclopedia.org/A/AL/ALUMINIUM.htm You'll also get other sites that prove me right, and you wrong, when you google for the following terms: aluminum aluminum original...

Although, in the case of 'aluminium', it was actually the rest of the world that added the 'i' so that it fitted in with other elements such as 'magnesium', 'calcium', 'helium', etc., and 'Aluminum' was the name given to it by it's discoverer. Although, this thread has got me wondering why we...

I ordered mine with 1GB ram. It wasn't a hell of a lot more for the extra ram, so I thought I may as well. I'd never get a PC again with less than 1GB of ram after seeing the difference it makes, and so I thought I'd apply the same to my mac (even though I know there are great differences...

Well, I've ordered one. My G3 iBook (one of the white ones) is getting very old now, and not really designed to be the desktop machine I've been using it as, so I've been waiting for a new Apple for a while. I was just about to buy a PowerMac when the iMac G5 was leaked, and as I was...

almost had what?

Any ideas as to why? 2.3ghz XServe?

I think it looks great, and I'll be ordering one later this week. I was away at the time of the launch, so I was unable to smugly link to this post I had made: http://www.macosx.com/forums/showpost.php?p=316119&postcount=3 I was actually amazed when I saw the pictures of it - it is...

They could simply say "the reason for the higher prices in the UK is that there are higher licensing costs" that's not really pointing the finger and saying "its not us, they are the ones giving you the shaft!", it would just be an honest response that explained the situation. Although, it...

With computers moving from the study and into the lounge, and innovations such as the new cinema displays and the new iMac G5, I see an online movie store being a great idea.

I don't know why people keep trying to come up with reasons to try and justify what Apple are doing, if these were the reasons, then surely Apple would have stated them themselves in their defense. What they said however was: “The underlying economic model in each country has an impact on...

I think it means "if you are a label that has signed up to sell music on the iTunes music store". It seems to have nothing, nothing at all, to do with Apple signing up bands. The rest of that page all seems to be about iTunes' Affiliate type programs and deals. (Oh, and I think it...

But you can move your notebook around, or you can move things around your notebook. I may try the speaker thing, I can believe it could affect the speaker whilst next to it (as it would interfere with the internal magnets) and might affect the sound, but I'd dount it would do any permanent...

An odd way to admit you were wrong (in saying "definitely not possible") but never mind. I also doubt it would have a powerful enough magnet to damage anything (unless you take your computer apart and rub it against the components), most computers already have a few magnetic components...

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

It's quite possible that Apple (or more likely one of their component suplliers) have worked on making an efficient vertically mounted drive since the current iMac was released. Things do change; progress is made.

ahem: Link (though I don't think it will work because Apple seem to have strange website where uou can't usefully link to products): http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=M9314G/B

ha ha. I understand the basics of how permissions work, but I guess I must have missed the advanced permission course - probably through doing some more worthwhile course on programming or something. I don't really understand how they become 'broken' in OSX though, or how, or why, fixing...

mi5moav strikes again! Oh, and I think the iPods do already have a cheap mono speaker (thats how it makes the clicks and stuff), they just need to let you play sound through it! Though, you can get some small external stereo speakers pretty cheaply.
