You're right. I was more thinking about the process in making it translucent.
For some reason a translucent image is made by changing its "opacity"... I dunno why they don't call it "translucency" lol.
I think you mean you're :p

I use this site for my conversions.
$400 = �225
$500 = �282
So yeah, you're right.
I used the conversion widget that is included with Mac OS 10.4 and get the same thing (see, dashboard has its uses)-

Agreed, but the latest nano is pretty poor, was surprised, seems very unapple-like. There is room for a good ultra portable small music player (gyms etc, I see so many ipods) and for them to please, please make a good quality headphone as standard, the ones that come with ipods (of any price) is pathetic. So, let's see what they do.
I bought a new nano specifically for the gym, I have a 160gb Classic that stays in my car, and an iPhone. Still love the dedicated for music iPods.

uganda? no thanks and unchecked from iTunes connect. that government needs to be focusing on some serious social growth before worrying about getting an app store. i wonder if the ugandan government will prosecute those who download gay-themed apps along with the others for so-called "attempted homosexuality". :mad:
why did apple sponsor "no to prop 8" in california but give uganda an app store? what a joke!

My brother was a pc fanatic and so did my dad. until 1 day my brother was fed up with repairing all ours pcs and finaly bit the bullet after he talked to my cusin who loves macs. he brought 17" i mac (not the intel version) i think the g5 one this put my brother in a lot of deph but he always say it was worth it. I started my gcse 2 years ago and needed my own pc for course work so my dad and brother piched in to buy me my own pc. it work for a week or so and started chrashing i cope for this for 2 years until i finaly plucked up the courage to by a mac by this time my brother had bought another mac and my dad got the old 1. so i got the best 1 i could but with out going crazy i got a 24" intel imac. I love it so much ive had it for 2 months now and not had it chrash once macs are 5 times better than pcs. There is only 1 side which took me so long to make my decision that was my games, i have to say it is a bit disapointing the amount of games for macs and it take ages for games to come out on macs after they have been released for pc if they come out at all im having problems getting my old games to work on windows vista on boot camp i think that just shows how rubbish microsoft realy are

I have one. A camera would really come in handy, a microphone would be nice for recording music ideas and speakers would be great for sharing videos and music (I use in-ear headphones). I know I could get separate devices for cheaper but it would be nice to have everything in one.

why do u hate the magic mouse so much, i love mine, only thing i dont like about it is the battery life, that sucks
The lack of a physical scroll wheel with detents will always deter gamers, especially those that need precision scrolling (i.e. switching between weapons).
As for battery life, use Sanyo Eneloops. I get about 3 to 4 months a charge out of those, and that's at 60 hours a week of use.

As with all Apple computers purchased just before the release of a new OS, a drop in disk will be found in older models still on shelves after the release and you will be given an opportunity to get a free or severely discounted copy of the new OS if purchased in Apple's determined timeframe. I bought a Mac Mini about 30 days before Snow Leopard came out and was able to get SL for free.

We absolutely need more than 8 bits on the pro end.
I think that within a year or two even consumers will be demanding more picture quality. Even cheaper displays are beginning to have more contrast and wider gamut than crt's used to have. With new displays consumers start to see PQ problems with older content. This leads to demand for higher PQ content. Here in Finland, sd-dtv was generally considered high quality with older crt's, but when hd-lcd's got more common, people started complaining about artifacts.
And maybe even smaller movie companies start realizing that they need color management...:rolleyes:

Does every rumor point to the iPhone? Come one people...there's nothing to see here. More and more cameras are including GPS recievers. Especially high end digital SLRs that pros use.
This is just a natural extension of increasing the amount (and quality) of the metadata that is tagged and collected with digital images. The recent updates to iPhoto and Aperture allow for Aperture to use your iPhoto library as a source.
Aperture also has a new export plug-in API to allow for connection to third party services like Flickr and iStockphoto. Google maps will be next. Then, look for these same or similar plug-ins to make their way down to iPhoto in iLife '07.
I'm just as excited as the next guy for an iPhone but come on guys...this is getting a bit much.

And? They are still losing marketshare. Apple is growing much slower than the market. And yes Android ships more *phones* than Apple ships *total* iOS *devices* (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad) per quarter (40 million Android smartphones compared to 33 million iOS devices).
Again google ships nothing at all. Show me data indicating a single quarter where a major version of Android was shipped on 40 million compatible units and then you can start making iOS comparisons.
THis whole concept of iOS and Android being the same kind of thing or worse iPhone and Android being the same sort of thing is beyond absurd. There is no way a reasonably informed person buys into it.
Billions of dollars in App sales versus millions of dollars in app sales is all you really need to care about when we discuss platforms..

Google ships not a single phone. It provides a free OS (from which it makes little money) to handset makers that sell phones. None of those handset makers sell a phone as popular as the iPhone, and all of them combined do not make as much money doing so. If one is comparing iOS (all devices) to Android (all devices), recent data suggests iOS is the more widely used.

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but I just saw this (http://xlr8yourmac.com/archives/oct02/103002.html#S14660) article yesterday at XLR8yourmac.com
Info on Non-Pioneer Superdrive in recent iMac G4s (DVD-R/-RW plus DVD-RAM?) About a month or so ago I had heard that some new iMac G4s had non-Pioneer DVD-R/RW drives - a reader with one of these just sent an email with more info:
" Hey Mike ...
Just wanted to let you know that Apple has changed the SuperDrive in the latest shipping iMacs. I just bought a 17" iMac LCD straight from Apple's Developer Connection (we're Select developers at work) and I was surprised to see that Mac OS 9.2.2's Apple System Profiler identified the drive as
-------------------------------------------------------------------
DVD-R/CD-RW
Driver version: 1.4.8
Mac OS partitions: 0
Removable media: Yes
Vendor: HL-DT-ST
Revision Number: D02D
Product ID: DVD-RW GCA-4020B
Apple disc burning: Supported
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Depending on who you believe, "HL-DT-ST" is either Hitachi or GoldStar in Korea - I'm not sure which.
A few Google searches revealed that this drive does DVD-R, DVD-RW *and* DVD-RAM! And, supposedly, the CD-R burning speeds are 12x, which is apparently faster than the previous Pioneer SuperDrives. (I can't personally verify this myself, not knowing the specs of the Pioneer A03/A04)
(Pioneer DVR-104/A04 and 103/A04 have a 8x/4x max (CDR/CDRW) burn speed rating.-Mike)
The only place I could find on the Mac Web that mentioned this new development is a 5-day old article on MacWelt.DE, the German Mac site.
Regards,
- Greg E"
About a dozen readers wrote in reply to this post mentioning LG or Hitachi links, etc. - another iMac G4 owner sent info from the label on the drive:
"FYI, I'll read off the label on a superdrive taken out of 17" iMac delivered approx. 3 weeks ago (yep, I've opened the iMac to take a closer look):
H�L Data Storage
CD-RW / DVD-R/RW DRIVE
MODEL No. GCA-4020B
DRIVE REV. A1
manufactured SEPTEMBER 2002
Hitachi-LG Data Storage, Inc.
(...), Tokyo, Japan
MADE IN JAPAN
I tried to look up tech. specs of this GCA-4020B on the web, but got nowhere so far.
Cheers,
