just chatted with a representative:
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Hi Robert Kaplarczuk,
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Thank you for contacting Monoprice Tech Support.
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): My name is Lacey H.. Give me a moment while I review your question.
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): How are you doing today Robert Kaplarczuk?
Robert Kaplarczuk: very good I'm going to be purchasing the new iMacs and had a question about the HDMI converter
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Alright, how can I help you with that?
Robert Kaplarczuk: it says that it goes in the mini display port which the new iMacs have
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Correct
Robert Kaplarczuk: however at the botom of the page it also says thunderbolt compatible which the iMacs also have
Robert Kaplarczuk: how is it t
Robert Kaplarczuk: hunderbolt compatible
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Correct
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): it it FULLY thunderbolt compatible
Robert Kaplarczuk: so it can be connected to the thunderbolt port as well?
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Yes, the thunderbolt port is a mini displayport, basically an upgraded mini displayport port
Robert Kaplarczuk: ok thank you\
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Robert Kaplarczuk: so basically any mini display port wire ordevice can be used in a thunderbolt
TS - Lacey H (Level 3): Yes, thunderbolt is fully backwards compatible, however that does not mean it will give your devices thunderbolt compatibility if they have the previous displayport version.
Robert Kaplarczuk: thank you
Question guys:
What she mean by previous display port version? Does her explanation mean that certain devices do not have to have Thunderbolt ports only mini display ports to plug ihnto the thunderbolt port?

Oooh, I think I remember that vaguely...But four channels was the best. You had to use up two channels at a time to actually get the sound out of both speakers. But some of the music was *amazing*... Ahhh, good old 8-bit Ensoniq guts. :)
i still listen to old school mods.. i love this music. there are so many wonderful artists out there that people have no clue exist.

I'd say the $1999 model with the i7 3.4GHz upgrade is enough. Purchase RAM from a third party like OWC (http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2011/DDR3_21.5_27), $50 for 2x2GB, $100 for 2x4GB. You could do the latter and end up with 12GB in your system and that should be plenty. I don't think you'll in anyway need 2GB of VRAM.
(I'm assuming Pro Tools has no problem with hyper-threading in the i7)
I'll have to check into Pro Tools, including whether I can transfer my Windows license to Mac, which I doubt - so I may end up going with Logic.
Excellent suggestion on the RAM - that must mean it has 4 slots, need to install in pairs and I don't waste what ships with the machine? And the i7 sounds like a good choice too.
Thanks for the advice!

Just do a 7 pass secure erase (35 if you are super paranoid and have some time to waste) using disk util from the boot up thumb drive.

Hi all,
I've sold my sgs i9000 and switched to iphone 3gs and i am more than happy now. iphone ui is really so smooth and things are cool. I recommend to switch to all android users that got fed up with bugs and lags.
I've purchased few apps yesterday and i wonder what happens if i switch to iphone 4 (or ip5) in the future? Will i have to re purchase them again?
Not at all. As long as you sync/backup your iPhone you'll be able to move them onto your new iPhone at any time. They are linked to the Apple ID that purchased them.

Is that done just by going to accounts, unlocking the lock, right clicking the name and selecting the home folder -- and I presume just making sure it's the same folder that is selected for SL?
System Preferences > Accounts > Click the lock and type your password > Right-click the user and select "Advanced Options..." > Home directory
You just select the same folder as in SL. If your username is Steve, then it would be Macintosh HD/Users/Steve, assuming Macintosh HD is the volume where SL is installed.
Also, given my setup (SSD booting and running SL with my apps) what is the best way to install Lion? I have the dmg. file, so what would I do to make sure I don't wipe out my SSD situation?
Create a new partition to the HD (e.g. Mac OS X Lion) and when installing Lion, it will ask you where do you want to install it. Select the volume you just created and that's it. You don't need to boot from the DMG, just open it while running SL

How exactly does that work? I replaced my own battery when its life went to poo.
So, Apple will replace a dinged up CD MBP for a brand new MBP because of short battery life?

Worked for me, sent to my gmail email address. I didn't use the form, just hard coded the variables on the email script.
You're a star! I just tested it with my hotmail address and it works but its not going to my other email which it needs to, any ideas?
Its not even landing in the trash...

I generally advise people to avoid having their camera gear on a homeowner's rider anyway- the last thing you want is the HO insurance canceled because of a claim. Talk to any licensed insurance agent- Traveller's has a nice "personal professional property" policy, or just ask about an "inland marine" policy for your gear.

Great advice!

Hey guys!
Well, I've been a long-time reader of the forums, but I haven't done hardly any posting as of yet. I decided that it was finally my turn to post up a review of a case that I just got for my iPod Touch 4.
Now, this is my very first review, so please feel free to ask all the questions that you would like, and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge.
Also, I am at work now so I can't include photos, but I will make sure to add them into this original post as soon as I get home.
So, the case that I purchased was the "Melkco Leather case for Apple iPod Touch 4th" sold by carrymobile.com (link here (http://www.carrymobile.com/scripts/main/viewitem-A1ITO4LCFT1BK-ITO4.html))
Pros: I really love everything about this case! Specifically:
-It feels really durable. I feel like I could throw this thing accross the room and it would be fine
-The magnetic-snap is very good quality, I don't feel like it would ever come undone without me deliberately opening it
-The ports are open, so you can charge it, plug in headphones, hear the speaker, and record voice with no issue (I have tested these)
-It looks super sexy! I love the leather with white stitching, I think it looks fantastic. It's not too bulky, but enough padding that my iPod feels protected
-Design: I'm not sure if it was planned like this, but you can fold back the front cover all the way back and snap it again, and there is enough of a gap there that I can slide my 4-fingers up to almost my palm, and the iPod stays with no fear of it slipping. I do the same when it is in landscape mode (for playing games, for example). I don't feel like I have to grip it, it feels like it just molds to my hand. I will attach pics later on with exactly what I'm talking about.
Cons:
-This is a very small issue, but you cannot charge it while it is snapped shut. I recognized this before I even purchased the product, and it doesn't bother me at all, as the flap still stays down, but it must be unsnapped
-The cameras are just a little bit blocked. The hole on the front (for the Facetime camera) is just a LITTLE bit too low, so you get a black shadow on the top of your pictures unless you really tug the case up or push the iPod down
-The same issue on the back, only this time the case itself kind of gets in the way, unless you raise up the iPod just a bit
Again, with these two issues, I was prepared to deal with this, as I do not use my iPod very much for taking pictures.
-The only other con was the belt clip. Everything about this case feels top-notch, except the belt clip. It felt very cheap, plasticy, and I did not want to use it. The thumb depresor does not work well, and I even had the part attached to my iPod just fall out (after I screwed it in tight) and my iPod fell to the ground. I have not used it since then.
Well, I'm sorry if this is too long or too short! Please, ask questions, and I will post any pictures up as soon as I get home (1:30 am EST)

I want to buy a zip and jazz drive USB or firewire 400 if they have SCSI aswell it would be a plus. Are all jazz and zip disks the same? I want these to access some old disco from like 1999.

How likely is it that Apple is holding back the groundbreaking new features or GUI changes?
I myself think there won't be any GUI changes from the developer version, but maybe some new features that make people go "wow".
As I am new to the Mac I would like to know what's the experience with previous Mac OS launches. Does Apple wait for the final version with the big changes?
