Well, that was my point...
It's equivalent to a 2 year old card. If you buy a top end desktop card today, it will last you 2 more years for sure, but the iMac has a 2 year old card already.
It's not a big deal to me because I know Diablo 3 will screen on a 6970M and there isn't really that much worth getting excited about. Worst thing is that in 2 years, you'll have to run at 2x AA instead of 8x AA or turn down the resolution.
With a Top Moblity Card such as the 6970m I have no fear that i will be able to run Witcher 2, Skyrim, MassEffect3, or any other game that will be released in the next 1,5 years at at least High and 1080p...with no AA of course.
I dont understand why one would waste GPU power with AA; max. AA i use is 2x.

It's not just a mall store, Apple is nothing like any other mall store. First no mall stores offer full benefits & retirement packages to there employee's only managers and above. Second the benefits and hands on training is incredible and they use you and train you so that you will be ready to work at 1 Infinity Loop or Maden, NC at the billion dollar facility. Plus they give you all the training in the world to be a teacher, educate another, work for other companies using Mac products and the list goes on and on. Yes they have an intense application process but once you're in with Apple you connections will never seise to grow. The atmosphere as well is fun, exciting and different than any other store.
It's still a mall store to me

The only reason I have two partitions is because of the Panther beta - I didn't want to install it over Jaguar and then go through hell to get it back again if Panther was too buggy (which it is).

Single player. Gameplay aside, I'm a huge fan of a good story. Games, books, films. Multiplayer stories just seem non-existent.

I have an issue where imported video will not have a poster-frame, but instead multi-color vertical lines. It wouldn't be till I explicitly set the poster-frame that it would show. Maybe or maybe not this is addressed in the update.

I also got what I wanted; 32gb White on Verizon.
I was about 80 something in line and was out of the store by 5:55. I'm impressed who quickly the sales were handled.
Love my 1st iPad and the smart cover is sweet!

Easily 125+ people here. 16GB 3G both carrier are already "gone" according to apple people.
Line is 3/4 around the building now, back to the Wachovia Bank entrance. Gotta be 300+, easy.

I was first one activated!
Staff at the Apple Store were great! Well executed. I was first one in the store and was out with the phone in less than 10min

I have a 15" PBG4 1.25ghz and am having some screen artifacts show up. Everything is running fine otherwise. I haven't used this machine at all in months and I'm trying to clean it up to sell it. Any info would be helpful.

Spymac's been a joke ever since they added the 1GB email. The community's almost evaporated since then, and it's being kept alive by a few trolly spammers.
It's amusing that they initially launched their products as an exclusive range, but now they're more than likely overstocked with a pile of overpriced stuff, the prices are affordable.
The Spymac appreciated by so many disappeared a good while ago. The eventual demise will not be past time.

AP says no. :D
Again, proving my ignorance...
"AP" is what? "Associated Press"? Or, I mean, "Associated Press?"
No, I don't - that looks like I'm using "Associated Press?" as a phrase.
I'm so confused. I think I'll just speak my posts from now on and supply the link to the audio file.
No, wait, I'll have to record them with my iSight... otherwise, I'll not be able to do the "air quotes". "Air quotes." Dammit....

AppCleaner will uninstall every part of a program, including the oddball things that don't get uninstalled when you drag it to the trash.
No, it won't.
Thanks!! That works awesome!!
Actually, it doesn't.
u can also use Appzapper.
That's not any better.
AppZapper, AppCleaner, CleanApp, TrashMe, and similar apps do not do a thorough job of removing all files/folders related to deleted apps. I tested several of these, using Skype as the app to be removed. Of 17 items to be removed:
AppZapper missed 13 items
AppCleaner missed 11 items
AppDelete missed 8 items
Hazel missed 9 items
I also tested AppTrap, CleanMyMac and a few others, but don't recall how many items they missed. All left files/folders behind. In most cases, they remove .plist files and a few others, but leave behind much larger files and folders. (you will find a discussion of these tests in the thread linked below)
One app that I would not recommend, based on the number of complaints that have been posted in this forum and elsewhere, is CleanMyMac. As an example: CleanMyMac cleaned too much (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=709930)
The only effective method for complete app removal is manual deletion:

I've been carefully monitoring the processor loads on my c2d macbook (the black one) to see what kind of processor I would be needing if I buy an air. The decision is really between the 1.86 and 2.13
My loads are:
1.03 .93. 87
These are with chrome and itunes and terminal running along with ical and the likes. nothing too heavy.
Any advice on which processor?

The simple answer is that if your company is not making enough money to pay a trademark attorney, you don't need a trademark... these are business protections, and without revenue you have little to protect.
Even if you did pay for a trademark, it does not appear you would be able to protect yourself in court (a potentially far more expensive process)... this means that your trademark would soon be invalid because if you do not actively protect your trademark, you lose it.
The high cost of some of these processes can be seen as a deterrent to trademark squatting... not that much different than the people who buy up domain names hoping that someday they will be valuable.
In terms of your specific company (r.e. your PM), because of the strong possibility that many other entities share the same name, I do not think that you would be allowed to take ownership or copyright over it.
