grawk Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 i assume there's no market for used laptop ram, especially for the standard size that ships with most laptops, so I save it for when I need to take my laptop to the shop, or for testing, etc. Quote

The Monkey Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I wonder if there will be a Beatles announcement. Quote
shellylh Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Today is a magical day, a package from magical Florida showed up. Quote
The Monkey Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Awesome! Let us know what you think, shelly. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I'm going to go out on a limb, and say, "magical"...? Quote

shellylh Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 Looking into Airport Extreme and Express recently, I noticed that the express has an optical digital out so you can stream (digital) wirelessly to it. Why in the hell did I not know this before??? My real question is: how is the quality? Right now I have a Mac mini wired directly to the ECD-1 via optical (used exclusively as a music server) in our office but I would love to put it in the living room and stream wirelessly (so I could connect it to the tv).

blessingx Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 x2. Have one running to a DAC for phones and another plugged into the back of some A5s. Quote
Smeggy Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 Pity it doesn't have a USB as well, that would be useful. Quote
The Monkey Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 I'm typing this post on my brother's new 13" MBP. There is a LOT to like about this machine. Very nicely done. I just wish it were a bit lighter. And cheaper. Quote

Have one running to a DAC for phones and another plugged into the back of some A5s. Thirded. I have mine running through the D/AC 1000 in my speaker rig and it's all good. Pity it doesn't have a USB as well, that would be useful. Agreed. (well, it does have usb, just not for audio.) Quote

n_maher Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 Isn't that your iPad? iPad != computer Quote
Grahame Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 iPad != computer Indeed, but it is lighter, cheaper, and you can type on it!. Don't confuse the monkey with such technical details. They are both shiny and have an apple on the back (and contain a CPU, running software) What more does he need to know Quote
morphsci Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 I'm typing on my iPad and running SAS with 8 cores and 16 gb of RAM. Works for me Quote

Grahame Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 But it is more an appliance (as a feature not a bug) The Geomblog: Could the IPad make computer science obsolete ? Would an ipPad (as thin client) and a Hackintosh > MBP for same / less cost? presuming you are predominantly a comsumer as opposed to a producer of content / work Quote
Grahame Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 Ok, so it's Turing complete. Now deploy an app of your own creation on it without the prior approval of Apple. Computer or Appliance? Quote
