I installed Bodyguardz, both front and back.
It was pretty wet at install, I used many solution, but apperently not enough.
It was dripping and I had to clean my desk.
Most of the bubbles will dry up in a week. Some small ones will take a 2-3 weeks, but eventually they'll be gone.

I'm freakin sick of the ITMS. :mad:
I love iTunes and my iPod, but purchasing music that can only be put on an iPod is crap. There may be a better player out later which I want to go to and then *poof* my ITMS purchased tracks are crap.

It's (significantly) cheaper.
It's better.
'Nuff said.
Hmmn, have just tried 3 times to buy a PIN through Alltunes...card declined all 3 times, they SAY. Funny but it works everywhere else, including iTMS.
will be checking my bank balance JUST IN CASE!
So, it's NOT better in my experience.

Thanks for the review! Have to say I'm a little disappointed that they overlooked the light sensor. Seems like the case is otherwise just what I am looking for, but this is a serious flaw.

Using the whole page whould be pointless. There's lot of stuff there that's irrelevant to Mac users. We could make one of our own, but keep it a bit simpler and just have a link to Wikipedia for the more technical stuff (for those who is interested).

At the very least, resolution independence is no worse than changing the display resolution. If you change the display resolution, the monitor is simply doing scaling automatically to match it to the native resolution. However, it's scaling the entire screen as a single bitmap. This is why the screen looks blurry if you run at anything but the native resolution. (Note: This is with LCDs.)
With resolution indepence, at worst you do the same type of scaling in the OS. However in this case, the scaling algorithm affects only one app, the algorithm can be updated, and it can be better than the one used by the monitor.
And now they won't have to.
I guess we'll agree to disagree, and wait to find out. We already know that Apple knows that scaling things up will result in a loss of quality, or else they wouldn't be rebuilding all their graphics.

One thing I've noticed is that DW8 seems a tad bit slower at rendering then MX2004, could be just me but I've noticed it so far. Flash 8 font rendering THANK GOD!!! - I love the new anti alias settings for the fonts but I still haven�t tested whether they fixed the pixel font problem (blurry text if its not on a whole pixel number like 425.3 or 425.8 instead of 425). Flash 8 Video Encoder - Easy to use but the power lies in Flash 8 when you import the .flv video. Haven�t tried Fireworks 8 yet I�m not a big FW fan and prefer Photoshop.

1) do dual monitors use up more RAM? if so...
Nope. Memory for graphics is based upon the amount of physical memory in the system. I believe less than 4Gb reserves 128Mb for video, 4Gb and above reserves 256Gb RAM.
2) how much RAM is a safe amount (im buying aftermarket), if i want to run iTunes, Google Chrome, PS CS5, AI CS5, a lot of the time at the same time?
4Gb of RAM is safe, but 8Gb of RAM costs $80.
3) is the Core 2 Duo capable of that?! And if i got the 2.66 GHz over the 2.4, would i notice the difference.
Yes, but i don't think you'll notice much difference in proc speed. The Mac Mini ships with a 5400rpm notebook drive, so you'll find more of a performance improvement from going to a 7200rpm drive, or a hybrid SSD/HDD storage device.
4) Last but not least, if i want to use it mainly as a windows machine, and boot it from windows, how much should i keep for the mac partition.
You probably want 20-30Gb. AFAIK, Apple don't release updates for EFI and other hardware related stuff via Windows, so you will need a usable Mac OS X installation available for that.
Also, can you change how much each partition gets later on? if so, how?
You can backup, repartition and restore. You can't do it non-destructively as far as I know.

I tested this with another free app (Overstock)
1. Synced my wife's iPhone 4 which has Overstock 1.8 with her iTunes account
2. Copied app to shared user folder
3. Logged in as her on my iPhone >settings>store
4. Installed newer version of app over wifi on my phone (Overstock 1.8.1)
5. Synced my phone with my iTunes account - Overstock app shows up in iTunes
6. Disconnect iPhone from computer and delete app from phone
7. Delete Overstock 1.8.1 from iTunes app window
8. Drag Overstock 1.8 .ipa to iTunes app window and drop in
9. Re-sync phone to iTunes and Overstock 1.8 installs onto phone
10. Disconnect phone and app is installed and runs fine
Side benefit is app requires wife's password to update so for the Optimum app it will be impossible to update it and break the VPN again.

Well... you could just go into photoshop.... and use the Paint Bucket tool to make your own color... save a jpeg.. and drag to make it your desktop. What color are you looking for?

Thanks for the replies. I could probably do this and create little swatches but I was hoping there was some button I could push or something I could do to make it bring up a color palate so I could just choose any color at a moment of whimsey. Seems strange that the OS would limit you do doing such a simple thing.

"Top News: Steve Jobs Taking Leave of Absence"
My apologies if someone has already posted this, but I'm getting increasingly irritated by this new 'feature' on the main page.
When something was important (like his leave of absence or a countdown to an event), that space was used for that purpose and removed when it was no longer relevant.
Now, you have a permanent space for it and it's almost like crying wolf. When something important really needs to go there, most people will likely ignore it because you've had the same "Top News" there for weeks.
I could go on, but I think you got my point. Leave good enough alone until a true redesign.
Thanks,
theheadguy

Do you know by any chance on how swapping sims work withe official unlock? Do you have to connect to iTunes every time and new sim is inserted or can you just swap sims on the fly?

I blush, and thanks.
Just make sure that you let us know what it is you do end up with!
A Mini is also not a bad idea.
1) Get a refurbished one to save some bucks. Max out the RAM yourself - save bucks over Apple doing it.
2) Add FW external HDDs for storage. They can be used on a Mac Pro or an iMac later on.
3) With the money saved on the Mini, you can get a high quality monitor. Also transferable to a Mac Pro or an iMac later (as a 2nd monitor). A good monitor can used for several to many years comfortably. Imho, it's better to produce better photos (because the monitor is accurate) and wait some extra seconds, than to get a faster computer but put out photos with inaccurate colour.
4) Start investing in the SW tools that you will want/need. These are also transferable to a new system.
5) When you finally spring for a fully loaded, 24 core, 512MB RAM, 72 TB Storage, 4 graphic cards, 4 Thunderbolt ports iMac Pro Supreme Tower all of the peripherals and software moves too.
It's how I got started. A small Mini with a 23" ACD. Everything I bought to go with it also had to work with a (future) Mac Pro. Eventually I was working with Photoshop files that were approaching 1GB, on a Mini with only 1GB of memory (the days when opening a Mini involved spludging).
There was a lot of HDD thrashing. I was afraid that PS would crash, so I saved often. It took so long to save a big file, that I could go out and mow the lawn or do the dishes while it thrashed away. I got a lot of housework done that summer. Ironically, that Mini never crashed. Not once.
Eventually I got my current Mac Pro, and it was like moving from steam trains to warp drive. All the peripherals and SW moved too, so the only cost was the Mac Pro itself plus the extra HDDs I added at the time.
That Mini then got hooked up the TV where it served up all of our music throughout the house, and movies to the TV for a couple of years. I've upgraded that Mini to a newer one but the first one still works, and I keep it as a spare.
Nah... I just feel sentimental for it. What a workhorse!
Thank You for sharing as that is what I am thinking. I will buy 1333 ram no matter the machine I take home. I saw several refurb minis a few days ago, they were $500 or so.

I want to stick my iphone 4 on a stalk mount which plugs into a console power source in my car and I want the thing to charge my iphone 4. I see numerous charging stalk mounts for older iphones, but, they specifically state somewhere in the description that they DON'T charge iphone 4's. It's been nearly a year since the 4 was released. What is the problem?
