Hi, I installed a 160 GB GEN2 Intel X-25M SSD in my MBP and was surprised to see in "About This Mac" that TRIM is indicated as "NO." The drive comes from a serial number set that should have the latest firmware. Am I missing something? I thought these were all featured TRIM...

Is the SwitchEasy screen protector high quality and does it resist fingerprints or attract MORE fingerprint? :confused:

Can't you contact the bus company and ask if they found something? I lost my telephone once on a bus and could retrieve it later from the headquarters.

Been about 10 years since I last spent a significant amount of time with Macs but I wanted to try OSX and it was time to get a new machine for my day-to-day computing chores (word processing, internet, finances, music, archiving, etc.). Didn't need to be powerful and I didn't want to spend a lot of money but I wanted something portable so I got an 800Mhz ibook. I couldn't justify spending another $300 on the 900Mhz model just to get the combo drive since I already have a firewire burner I can use at home. Besides, if I spent an extra $300 for that, I may as well spend another $300 and get a 12" powerbook. Then I'd be a long way from my cheap computer. ;)
It took just a few hours for my iBook to make a mockery of many Switch ads. I knew they were BS when they first aired but I was surprised to see so many contradicted in the first few hours.
My email didn't import properly. All of the folders are there but most of the big ones are empty or only have a single message. :P I also had a crash the first night. I came back to the computer and found a black display. At first I thought it'd just gone to sleep but the light wasn't flashing and the screen's backlight was still on. Then there were the drivers. I actually had to download drivers for my MP3 player and printer. The horror. ;)
But enough griping. I really do like my little iBook. It runs OS X great. The battery life is better than I expected (and I haven't even done any power-saving tweaking). I've got 60 gigs of space which is enough to carry everything I need and a lot of stuff I don't need. The airport card works with my old wireless gateway. I've been able to find software to do just about everything I did on the PC. The sleep mode is awesome. I still can't get over the recovery time. It's ready to go by the time I get the screen angle adjusted. After that initial crash, it's been rock solid. I've only rebooted after installing drivers and I think I've got them all loaded now. The next reboot will probably be for an OS update.
The screen is bright and the fan hardly ever comes on, even if the CPU is running at 100%. (I installed the folding@home client so I could see how often the fan would kick in.) Even with the CPU at 100% and the airport card turned on, battery life is still decent.
Okay, a couple more gripes. WTF is up with the one-button mouse? Yeah, I know. "Get a real mouse." I did. A nice cordless optical mouse. But that doesn't help me when I'm on the move. I don't want to lug extra stuff around. Why can't my track pad have two buttons?
And what's the deal with anti-aliasing? Why does everything need to be "smoothed"? Makes it look like I've got the display set at the wrong resolution. I put TinkerTool on there but it seems that some apps just ignore the setting and "smooth" the fonts anyway. Come on, Apple. Let ME decide how I want text presented on MY computer. Put a "none" option in there and make it stick.

Well, given how tiny the Nano is you shouldn't have any problem hiding it from him... ;)
Very funny! Alternatively, buy it for him and then use it yourself?

I have been having the same problems (seemed to happen when i upgraded skype). Could be the cause, but I have not, as of yet, found a solution..
Any one have any ideas?
Could always go back to an older vers of skype - but would prefer to solve the issue..
thanks

bringing back an old thread :D
any idea how to do these sorts of things for the system prefs pane of F@H? i would like to change the amount of CPU usage/cores if possible. i like BOINC so much because you can change everything, this F@H pref pane is so... basic..
well most people use the console version. it's really pretty easy to use, and gives you much more control over the pref pane.
sorry i know that's not much help. i don't use the pref pane anymore, so i can't help too much anymore. but if you can, maybe a screenshot of what you're not sure of?

I moved (renamed) it for you. Moving pages after they are initially created requires special permissions.
To imbed images, first upload them using the Upload file form. Note the destination filename that you put in. You can then imbed the images by including the following in your page (replacing Image.jpg with the destination filename that you specified):
[[Image:Image.jpg]]

Sooo... Can you do this over 3g, or just wifi?
You must be connected to a WiFi network to DOWNLOAD the shows.
Not sure if you have to be "connected" to anything once the shows are downloaded.

I purchased one from ifixit.com brand new about 6 months ago and it died a couple weeks ago. I went back today and they have none in stock. I checked on eBay and they have after-market ones that look like they will do more harm then good. Is there anyone else that sells apple parts?

I finally got the iBook in my hands... and here's what I did.
I first ran the hardware test.. and everything passed.
Then I planned on backing up everything to a firewire drive (just in case)
and then doing an archive and install...
Unfortunately, I couldn't copy his iTunes folder to the drive. In fact, everytime I looked inside that folder I get a perm. beachball- frozen.. and I couldn't force quit.
I tried making an archive of the folder.... no go.
I tried copying it from terminal... no go.
I saw that when it tries to copy that it hangs on 1 file... so I searched for it in finder and it froze the machine.
I then deleted the file from within iTunes.. but it still froze the computer when I looked in the iTunes folder.
So, I figured that I could use iPodRip to recover his tunes from his iPod... so I did the archive and reinstall anyway.
Before running it.. I ran repair permissions and repair disk from the install CD.
It reinstalled successfully- and the computer booted up ok..with his settings intact.

2gb Memory Stick Duo- �45
2gb SD- �13
Could do, or you could compare like for like products. Compare a hi-speed SD card which really is needed for video etc to a high end gaming MS Duo.
I get �28.99 for the 2GB Sandisk Gaming MS Duo (http://play.com/Electronics/Electronics/-/269/349/-/880408/SanDisk_Gaming_Memory_Stick_PRO_Duo_2GB/Product.html?searchtype=genre). SDs are cheaper for sure - I can't find a 2GB hi-speed SD one, but whether it's �13 or more (I'm guessing they level out at around �17.99) it's not the difference you portray it to be.

The desktop space is a small issue, solvable, but not pretty...
So, no one thinks the additional 150ish pixels of height is worth it, then?? (for the 23")
No question that for landscape oriented photos, the dual is great. (Assuming I do not have to 50%-50% the screens photo/tools. It's the height in portrait photos that drives me nuts on my current iMac17"...
If you go with Dell's 20" displays, or VESA mount your ACDs, you can rotate them to work on portraits. Works great. Then you have 1680 pixels high. (:

When you type in something short like G4 for example it turns nothing up. Why is this? Is G4 considered a common word? I think G4 and G5 should turn up results. There may be a setting for this.
