    2007wfp - worked, tried to check monitor type, now not working

    Got access (via work) to a A00 2007wfp - I nice screen that is considered "old" by the school. Anyhow. I plugged it in and it worked. I could see the OSD and appeared fine. Obviously, I wanted to see if it was the IPS panel by pressing menu and + as I turned it off. I then held them in as I...

    The New iPod ?

    Anyone think that the iPod Classic will be updated. I could see an iPod a little larger than the iPod Mini with a click wheel, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi for AirShare and flash memory of 120-200 GB. I would so buy this.

    2012 MacPro

    Geez what a stinker. http://www.apple.com/macpro/specs.html No thunderbolt, no native USB 3.0, lame graphic card released 2.5 years ago, no case redesign. The writing is on the wall.:mad:

    Why doens't Apple make a ruggedized iPhone?

    Almost every iPhone I see has one of those God-Awful Otterbox wrappers around them? The marketplace seems to be demanding it in their choice of cases. Seems like it would make for a much sleeker phone if it was made purpose built to be rugged. I know it will never happen, just an observation.

    USB Keyboard Output to Bluetooth Signal Converter ?

    Don't know what to call this - but I need something that will take the USB output from my keyboard and convert it into a Bluetooth signal. I've done several searches on it, but have yet to come up with anything that will do what I need.

    iTunes 7.4

    Thoughts? Just a warning, there are reports of 7.4 wiping out preview ringtones, and stopping iFuntastic. Upgrade at your own risk.

    2$ ringtones for iPhone

    Wow, thank God for hacks. 99 cents to buy a song and another 99 cents to use it as a ring tone. The comes under the heading of BULLSH**.

    Apple to introduce ringtone plan

    http://www.nypost.com/seven/08312007/business/apple__labels_pitch_tones.htm Great, if they also let you use your own music...but I guess that would take too much revenue from them.

    Oh geez... an iCar

    First, this is not a confirmation of an iCar, but it still begs the question...what if http://arstechnica.com/journals/apple.ars/2007/08/29/apple-rumored-to-be-in-talks-with-volkswagen-over-icar Apple could be collaborating with German car maker Volkswagen over an "iCar," according to the...

    Office 2008 delayed until 2008

    Here you have it http://www.tuaw.com/2007/08/02/microsoft-office-2008-for-the-mac-delayed-until-january-2008/#comments Can't say that I'm shocked, given M$'s recent track record with Vista and Office 2007. Call me cynical, but I wonder if this is to give potential buyers one less reason...

    Possible 6th Gen iPod interface

    Long story short - The following was a story about the upcoming 6th generation iPod (w/ interface video). Within hours, Apple legal attack dogs requested it be removed. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=332477

    Possible 3rd party apps on iPhone

    http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/19/iphone-says-hello-world-here-come-the-3rd-party-apps/ Don't know if this will pan out, but you never know. Of course, I'm sure if they got this to work, Apple would quash it, much like Sony does with the PSP, with a firmware update containing other goodies to...

    Leopard Upgrade Strategy

    I was going to make this into a poll, but it hangs when I try to. Oh well. 1. Install Leopard on day 1 2. Install 10.5 a few days / weeks after the release 3. Install 10.5 when 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 is released 4. Skip 10.5 / no upgrade 5. Hybrid upgraded; some machines upgraded, others not

    ZFS might/will be in Leopard...

    I looked at the wiki on ZFS, and 90% of it is over my head - so is this good, great, not a big deal? I guess the Jobs RDF will make it sound like the best thing since flash memory.

    Which is better: 1GB X 2 or 2GB + 1GB ?

    Forgive my ignorance, but from reading other post, it seems that you need two identical sized sticks of RAM to unlock the awesome power which is dual channel. On the other hand, there is the saying, “size matters”, which would seem to favor the 3GB option – but AFAIK, exclude the dual channel of...

    Superior display connection debate: DVI or ADC

    DVI won the battle…but to me the Apple Display Connector (ADC) made a lot of sense. In addition to the video signal in the cable, it also carried the power and a data connection. With DVI - its on separate lines of course, which makes for an ugly set up. Am I missing something here...

    New Displays ?!!?

    Well...that is what the current story is...and it will be dropped tomorrow http://www.looprumors.com/article.php?apple-product-announcement-tuesday,442033806 I still think they are the best looking thing out there - could go down in price by 20% - but they are still nice. I would be...

    Number of installs for a retail copy of XP ???

    Am I correct in saying that I can install my copy of XP (WXPFPP_EN) on as many computers as I want to, so long as they are not concurrent with one another. For example, can I install it on my intel iMac now, and then when I get a MacBook Pro in six months, then install it on that after removing...

    Dell 2407 vs. Apple 23 Cinema Display…

    I’ve narrowed my choices down to these two. The Dell is better in the features (i.e. more inputs, VESA compliant out of the box, warranty, size) as well as the cost. The specs on the Dell are also higher – but manufactures testing regiments are not the same AFAIK – so I don’t give the slight...

    Is there a print view in Word 2004?

    Just got a new iMac (before taking the MBP leap), and it has the so-called test drive of office in it. I’ve done my due diligence and looked for an hour on line, but with no success. This is all I want to do: I want Word 2004 to zoom to page width (no margins), and show images in the document at...

    Dell 1907FP: Samsung vs. AO panel (AO is trash, proof inside)

    OK, two weeks ago I ordered an Dell 1907FP, and got the Samsung panel. It’s great I guess - my last was a 1800FP from Dell that was over three years old. Now, I decided I wanted another, and my order comes in today – and its an AO panel. OK, have not heard many good things about it, but I tried...
