MacBook Airs:
extremely portable
slower processors than the iMac
SSD is faster than the iMac's traditional hard drive, but less storage capacity
memory can't be upgraded after purchase
no Thunderbolt ports
iMacs:
not very portable
faster processors than the Air
traditional hard drive is slower than the Air's SSD, but has more storage capability
memory can be upgraded after purchase
has Thunderbolt ports
Either machine is capable of photos and videos.
The iMac is going to have a faster processor, so it's going to be faster at CPU intensive tasks, like converting/export video. For me, I don't do these tasks often.
The Airs have the solid-state drives, which are insanely quick. This can make the Air feel like a faster-overall system when doing normal daily tasks, like surfing the web, email, iTunes, etc.
There's really no clear-cut answer. You're going to have to figure out if you need something portable or not, and if you want a Mac with a faster processor or a faster hard drive.
For me, the slower processor of the Air was outweighed by the very fast SSD. I'll gladly wait longer for the Air to complete CPU intensive tasks that I do a few times a month in exchange for doing the tasks I do daily much quicker than any other Mac I've ever used.

Hi all, please bear with me.... :o
We have individual iTunes libraries on our PCs and can access them via each other's PCs and iphones and stream to our Apple Express in the Living room and that's all good.
I'm now looking at getting the rest of our CDs ripped and stuck on a shared hard drive and that's all good too!
I did rip (using EAC) a shedload a while back and have somehow ended up with a folder full of albums-some in WAV and some in FLAC.
I have now seperated the albums into "FLAC" and "WAV" folders in a folder called "EAC Rips".
Here's where my brain explodes...
We're not audiophiles and I'm happy to keep the existing music (on our PCs, in our iTunes libraries) in whatever format it's currently in (which is a mix of MP3 and Apple Lossless).
We've only recently got the Airport Express and we love it and it's rekindled my desire to have all our music available and selectable to stream to it.
As I say, we're not audiophiles, so a 1:1 copy (quality wise) is not a priority.
Having said that, what I'm thinking of doing is (if possible), convert the albums in the "EAC" folder to Apple Lossless and then stick it in my iTunes library and then carry on ripping the rest of our CDs into a format that you guys suggest.
The other thing that makes my head spin is tagging!
I really didn't realise there was so much to it and I always assumed that as long as you had the Artist Name>Album Name>Song Title that all was good (how wrong I was!).
The reason I say that, is that last night I dabbled with converting...
I added an album to iTunes last night that I didn't think was adding, (the album in question is an album that was ripped using EAC to WAV), but couldn't then see it where I would expect (alphabetically).
I then realised that the tagging had gone haywire somewhere along the way, as I found the album right at the bottom of my iTunes library (in iTunes), with pretty much the artist name/album/song title all in the artist name column!
So that's why it "wasn't there" (alphabetically) in the iTunes listing when I scrolled down looking for it.
So-getting back to my question...

I don't really understand the co-location services
I always got the impression that this was something that was driven by the service providers rather than the customers. Compared to even the cheapest 1U and blade rackmounts, the Mac mini works out better on the triplet ratio of CPUs, cost and cubic feet.

I have bought from all of those stores and have found that THIS MAN (http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kyle-baccus/4/50b/728) is the apple parts expert.
I can't even begin to explain how much Kyle has helped me.
grassrootscomputers should also be in the hall of fame.

i used to do a lot of traveling and my PSP kept me
if you're into old school, i got a lot of play out of the Pirates! remake for the PSP and it's at bargain bin prices now.
I second the vote for pirates!. It nice and mostly open ended too, so if you get bored playing game of it, you can play it again and have different results if you will. The other game game for my psp i have enjoyed a lot is burnout legends, nothing like crashing cars, plus i find that the psp controls lends itself out well to racing games.

I agree on this one for fresh mac users picture can help me more then text :) but joke aside nice guide
The issue with pictures is that you can't take screenshots while installing AFAIK. Sure I could use a camera but that might start to be tricky. Besides, Lion will be out soon and it would require a new guide ;)

I find often times the store makes the bundles. Pisses me off to no end. I do not mind if MS throws the game in for free but like you I hate bundles.
I know with the Wii it was the stores making the bundles making you buy all the extra games for it. After that I have noticed that they tend to do it more and more often so people will just settle and buy the bundles.

Glad to see such a quick update from Apple for us Windows users.
I can't save I've had the brightness issue, but did have the head phone issue which was an easy fix by downloading the newest audio drivers.
But thanks Apple....

Hey I'm looking into buying a preferably new Macbook or Macbook Pro. I need one soon as I'm moving out for my freshman year of college. The two things I'm mainly concerned about is 500+GB, and 4GB Processor. I was wondering what might be some good places to begin looking for the right laptop.
If buying new, from apple.com with the edu discount, or an apple store with the edu discount...

I've been checking the refurb page for months now. Don't worry about a deal disappearing and never coming back if it's a current machine. On the other hand, if you're talking about a machine that's 1 or 2 revisions back, then the chance that it'll pop up later again gets slimmer and slimmer.
A good deal on a refurb iBook IMO is the current 14" iBook. It's $1099, versus $1299 for the regular price and $1199 for Educ. price. Been eyeing that for about a week now. Maybe if my money situation changes soon I'll pick it up.

My question for discussion would be: 1) would you consider buying a used LCD monitor off of ebay?
...No! No warranty, no guarantee of condition.

If you're in the UK, your best bet will probably be Crucial, as they run a UK web store. Crucial sells the proper modules with Apple-approved heatsinks.
�235.19 inc. VAT for two 4GB sticks (8GB kit). Not exactly cheap, but really, it's only about 10% more than what I would pay for the same thing in the States, after I factor in tax (which Crucial charges in my state), based on the currency exchange rate.
http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=Mac%20Pro%20%288-core%20Xeon%205400%20Series%29%202nd%20Gen.%20Early%202008&pl=Apple&cat=RAM
OWC and Trans Intl are always cheaper than Crucial, ASSUMING you live in the US. But the shipping and customs would kill you as a UK resident and they would cost more than Crucial in the end.
As said before, FB-DIMMs are expensive and chances are, they'll probably never decrease in price, but perhaps even increase over time.

I hear a lot of confusion about this. I don't know why TechCrunch said what they did, but by all accounts, there is no golden master right now. This is just a developer preview. After this there will (probably) be betas. And after that there will eventually be a golden master or two.
Right. Adobe and other big software manufacturers need at least > 6 months to optimize their software (much more than just InDesign and Photoshop) for the new OS. Apple probably wants to optimize Lion for Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Bridge#Ivy_Bridge) (via Intels Mac OS X compilers (http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-software-development-products-for-mac-os-x/), not just via the GCC), which means that we will see Lion GM/RTM in January/February 2012 and Lion final in March/April 2012. This would make more sense, because it reduces additional development costs for Apple, after Ivy Bridge comes out.

Now this is looking different. I'm not sure why this would have changed. The finder windows are clear.

Also, the CPU keeps running between 30-90% even though there are no applications running (other than activity monitor). Related or no?
