I have a 2.7ghz G5 and 4 months after buying it i'm now finding it a little sluggish. I've just done an xbench and it on average scores 106 compared to a 2ghz G5 (at 100) !! The finder is having problems changing between windows and I get beachballs randomly with simple tasks. Personally I blame 10.4.2 and perhaps dodgy crucial memory.
I would freshen up your system when 10.4.3 is released, maybe do a clean install. Consider a new graphics card ?
Then If you want to wait for the next best. Wait for an Intel Powermac since graphics cards etc are likely to be better aswell as speedier processors (although I expect most software updates to intel won't be free)

Not sure if this thread should be in the iPad Hacks section tho?

I wish you well with your eMac. How soon will you purchase? Hope that you will be getting extra RAM and AppleCare.

I concur!

Hey guys, so i've noticed that other computer forums have kind of a marketplace area of their forums. I thought this would be pretty cool if there was one on Macrumors, but I looked around and couldn't find one (if there is one I apologize for making this thread) so I thought i'd suggest it.
Also I wasn't sure exactly where to post this thread so if a mod feels like there is a better place for this posting you're welcome to move it there.
Thanks.

Chestnut St. will probably be the easiest one to line up at, Stonestown is indoors and lining up there sucks. Stockton St. (Flagship) will have way too many people...

Not only has AC gotten more efficient, but the drag coefficient has as well. On a highly aerodynamic vehicle I'd think any little increase in drag would be a lot more significant than on something like a truck or an SUV. I mean, if I leave the tailgate on my truck up that's a huge amount of drag. But that's normal for that vehicle. I wonder what it would do to the gas mileage if my wife drove her Civic with the trunk open all the time.

I got my development job from learning PHP, once you start being able to hook into databases and write "real" functions (something that imo javascript isn't much good for) then you can do some really cool stuff :)
I agree with this. I did web design work for years and never learned how to write javascript from scratch. I would find a script online that was close to what I wanted and knew enough about coding syntax in general to be able to modify it to fit my needs. I think making dynamic web pages that are easy to maintain is more important and php is an easy language to learn to accomplish this.

Lots of good advice for Wordpress here and don't get me wrong I love Wordpress. But as it's a company website and not going to be a blog doesn't anybody think that a CMS designed for business like Drupal or Joomla would be more appropriate?
Rather than having to go into heavy CSS editing the available templates may be more suited without modification.
Just a thought

Week 1: Read Python; familiarize self with scripting language semantics/syntax
Week 2-4: Learn PHP; obviously begin with what you learned from Python and build from there. Start to look at object-oriented PHP materials.
Week 5: Begin SQL query writing; queries aren't so difficult if you know your PHP material well. The better at coding you are, the better your query writing will be.
Eventually, you'll want to get into content management systems and MVC frameworks - this, outside of object oriented programming, is the biggest mountain to climb, but it is well worth it in the long run as all of your hard work will pay off. These two things will take a long time to learn so don't fret if you don't understand it all from the very beginning.
Also, like someone else said, make sure your design is consistent across different browsers. Since you are learning, you're probably looking at a lot of divs and what not. Divs are nifty, but browsers don't agree with them 90% of the time. This means grabbing a copy of Windows, downloading Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, and 9 to make sure everything looks correct. This is one of every designer/developers biggest complaints and why Internet Explorer is hated beyond words.

If you're a student, have you checked out Apple's educational discounts? I think they were selling the 667 and 800 Mhz models for about $1,900 and $2,400, respectively. I paid about $2,600 back in January for a 550 Mhz. :(
yeah, they did! Unfortunately I waited till the end of September (AppleExpo Paris...) when the $200,- promo went out, because I thought new PBs would come out soon:(
...as we now know, they didn't and I have to wait till January or later to pay more for features I don't need (Superdrive, IMHO more heat due o overclocked processor to compete with intel Mhz...)
But maybe I will be suprised because by now I set my expectations so low...:D

Gotta agree with you there... I heard about this story via word of mouth from an acquaintance. I searched for it, and "The Blaze" was the top and most reputable looking story.
Here is the Star Tribune (http://www.startribune.com/opinion/otherviews/119508364.html?page=1&c=y) piece if it will put you at ease
You do realize that the author of the opinion (the article is on the opinion page of the Star) piece is part of a very conservative, right wing think tank, don't you?

I know you're probably after a SIM free one, but o2 have loads in stock... I managed to nab one on day 1 from Southampton Apple Store, they didn't seem to have any stock problems either!

Wow, that really hurts to be that guy.
I never actually clicked the link or read the article,
but by scimming everyones responses i gather
it was pretty tuff for the college student.
Truly, a damn shame.

Yep, the MacBooks are due for an update. Not sure I believe the black rumour, as Apple has so many 13" laptops now. But I'd be very tempted to get it.

In pro apps such as FC, Maya, C4D Quadro is unbeatable (of cards available for G5).
