So the Demo came out this week. I played a game using 'Game Flow' and actually really liked it, I played as the Jets, so I have a feeling the OC will be different with Manning, but being told the play through the headset is really awesome.
I tried to run the Wildcat once with it, and it seems that like in the NFL, the game has found out how to effectively stop it from gaining big yards...
The only irritating thing with it so far is in kicking, I managed to get squib kicks and onside kicks pretty much nailed in 10, but with this new control system it seems a bit lacking in terms of determining accuracy.
Locomotion seems cool too, with Greene picking up a nice 15yard TD and a 30 yard run because of leaning away from defenders :D
All in all, I'm looking forward to it's full release and hopefully if other Macrumors people play it, setting up a league.
The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the fact that the USA gets it on my birthday, but I have to wait 3 extra days :(

I already have a mid-2009 13" and 15" MBP and an iPhone 4 GSM and was considering handing off my 13" MBP to my sister and moving to an iPad and more mobile devices.
I have no idea why but Verizon iPads don't seem to be moving much in my area of Georgia (no idea why). I have the option of going out and getting a black 16gb, 32gb, or 64gb at my local PeachMac the last I checked availability a few hours ago. I checked yesterday too. They're either getting a ton of Verizon models or they aren't moving them.
Anyways... I kind of considered the Verizon iPad as an opportunity for the best of both worlds. iPhone 4 with AT&T bands while having the option to use Verizon 3G whenever I need it. Anyone else done this?

don't worry about the custom option, simply type in the width and height you want for your new document, the app will then realise that this is a custom size.

Well, we won. 14-13 over a semi-rivalry team. I had a pretty good game, threw for about 180yds, a TD pass, but could have been WAY WAY better.
First drive, I threw a 40 yard pass to a kid with great hands, hit him in the end zone, in the chest, and he dropped it. Next drive I got my left shoulder separated, but it went back in. Hurt really bad, but i sat out a series then went back in.
Came back and threw a 66 yard TD pass to the kid that dropped one earlier. It was crazy, it was a quick play action pass, with the tight end over the middle running a seam. Right when I did the fake, a linebacker came up to sack me, I jumped up and threw the ball, my buddy snagged it and took it to the house.
So it was 7-7 at half. My shoulder was dead, but it was numb haha. So first drive I threw a fade to our star reciever, he got it for about 50 yards. We were down on their 20 yard line, I threw a corner to the same kid, he dropped it in the end zone for another TD. Next play we ran a pitch to the runningback, he fumbled.
A few series go by, we score when our RB breaks loose, so its 14-7. 3 min left in the game, they score, but miss the extra point. 14-13, their D shut us down, they got hte ball back, went for a 40 yard field goal, we blocked it, won.
Crazy. Here are a few pics that hte local paper took...

i was in a very similar situation as you, and ended up getting the MBA and very soon i'll be getting the 27 inch imac. personally. it depends on whether you want 1 system or 2. personally, i didn't mind having 2 machines (transferring things between them every day or so), and got both of them. having just the 15 inch mbp and the cinema display limits your gaming performance, and the macbook air is a very capable product. i'd spring for the 128gb, 1.86ghz, 4gb ram mba, and wait till the imacs are refreshed in a month or so. i'll be getting the lowest end 'bigger screened' imac.
nothing compares to 27 inches of screen real estate... ;)

Hello. Pretty much what title says.
Got to work this morning. Tried reloading facebook. Wouldn't...got on justin.tv app. Wouldn't load anything..
Restarted plenty of times. Turned off/on 3g. Same with Airplane mode just to see if it would do anything. It worked for a second after I did this. But then back to not.
I just installed the new firmware too so I'm wondering if that could be a reason?
Any help would be great. Thanks.

Just saw that Ati released the new low cost 6670, 6570, and 6450, anyone know if you could possible put these in a 1,1 Mac pro, of course after flashing using Zues or from a PC?
no.

Ok, so no worries with the BIOS not liking say, a 500GB hard drive?
Yep, you could even get a 750GB if you like.

Hey guys,
I want to play online with my Mariokart DS game but when I try to connect it says 'No access point in range.' My wifi connection from the router is clearly on, since I'm on the internet right now on my laptop. Also, I can access the browser & nintendo DS Shop on the Nintendo DS's home screen just fine. So basically the Wifi works on the DS console, but it won't work in the game?
Have any of you had this problem? What do i do?
Thanks, all the best ♥
Running my DSlite with Mariokart connected fine for me last time I tried, running it through my home connection as normal.
The one thing I would check would be the in game online settings - try re-searching for an access point and set it up again and see if that helps. The standard 'turn it off, then turn it back on again'...

The ATV was not outputting 1080P so that is something to consider.
What does a 720P encode played via iTunes look like? I never tried them back to back, but I never noticed a difference between ATV & Mini playing the same file. In fact I'm now using 3 ATVs and mini is just a headless server I VNC into occasionally. The minimal loss in quality that comes with not being able to do 1080P is more than made up for in the simplicity of the ATV IMHO.

The WGS 95 is somewhat collectable - the Mac II a little less so. I personally like the Mac II because it's one of only two '020 machines (the LC being the other), but most other people don't seem to care. Anything in a Quadra 900 form factor tends to generate interest - especially the WGS line since there aren't as many of them.
The X factor will be shipping - neither of those machines will be inexpensive to ship. I'd recommend heading over to the 68kmla (http://68kmla.org/forums/) site and see if anyone is interested.
Thanks so much for the info. I will check that site out, I have never heard of it. Unfortunately I am not eligible for the marketplace here, when I find some time I will take a look. I just threw out a bunch a few weeks ago :/. As to the workgroup server, how much are those worth? Are they still worth anything around $100? Thank you!

Can't help you much with garage band, I use Logic. However, just stick with it. Once you catch on it is a very rewarding experience. For plugins I recommend iDrum. It is fun and fairly easy to work around. There is even a version of it for the iPhone. http://www.izotope.com/products/audio/idrum/ Once you have all that down upgrade to logic and you will be blown away by all that your mac can do.;)

I've seen them from time to time elsewhere in very limited quantities, but they are usually a bad deal. Apple refurbs come with the full factory warranty same as a new Apple. I assume they go through very high quality testing, and are repackaged as if new.
Other refurbs are essentially used computers that some third party has tested in some way, with a very short warranty that has to be handled through them. Often original accessories and CDs are not included.
But if you really want that, you can look at Powermax.com, themacstore.com, and occasionally buy.com.

I have one with identical specs to the above. It had XP Pro installed on the hard drive but that either failed or has a loose connector. New HD would be pretty cheap. $50, shipped.

Hi all, Just recently received my NX5E and I am on the look out for a decent pair of headphones to monitor sound out and about on location. Looking for a set that are a good all round purchase, being able to cope with mainly filming outside in potentially noisey environments.
Price isn't a huge factor however if I can get a really good set for less than �150 it would be ideal.
Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.
Regards,
Nick

Thanks for the replies, I will take a look at Linksys.
I have discovered that when closing the lid the latch that holds it closed will only catch approx. 1 out of 5 times and the lid will pop back open. Searching around the net I found that others have had this problem and apple will replace it. So today I will hopefully get my second new 15" in as many days. Oh well, I have to go back for an airport extreme card anyway (forgot that last night).
You know, you never find these kinds of little imperfections on wintel machines.
