I am not sure what kind of PB you have but if it is 12" then you are maxed out (I think) I know that the 15" and 17" can have 2GB. Now if you have a 15/17" and want to max it out to gain speed I would not worry about it unless you are doing lots of RAM intensive things... If you are a TRUE multitasker and always have tonnes of things open then maybe it would be good. But what I would suggest is to open activity monitor over the next week and monitor RAM usage as well as page-outs to your hard drive to see if you are low on RAM. And remember that inactive RAM to OSX is just like free RAM so don't worry if most of your little pie chart is blue! If you are not low on RAM then adding more will give you no increase in speed. Good luck to you!

That's because I reported it to the Moderators asking for it to be moved here :p
Thx for that :)
Didn't really find the right forum right away.
And thanks for the answer, I'll have a look at the doc's you linked too.

OK, question . . .
I'm looking to get a 27" iMac. The "older" models are on sale and come equipped with a video card with twice as much ram. So I'm wondering, which of these will "appear" to be faster?
2.8GHz Core i5 Quad-Core
4GB (2x2GB) RAM
1TB 7200rpm Hard Drive
ATI Radeon HD 5750 1GB Graphics
2.7GHz Intel Core i5 Quad-Core
4GB (2x2GB) RAM
1TB 7200rpm Hard Drive
AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512MB GPU
I do mostly Photoshop work, compositing very LARGE files files. Am I going to notice any difference in performance between these two?
Thanks in advance.

These wrenches were shipped with the serial interface cards for the Apple ][ to mount the card and fix the plugs.

The iPod's Music Quiz game really is a pretty fun idea. We tend to think of games on a music player as just "extras," but this one is actually a great MUSIC feature! A fun way to you explore your collection.

Are you saying that DVDs won't play in DVD Player, or that they don't even mount on the desktop?

You cannot play BF2 on the GMA950 because it requires hardware transform and lighting, which the GMA950 doesn't have. Sorry.

it gets real dusty when working in my studio in the garage.
any recommendations for a keyboard cover, something clear.
also saw something somewhere for a cover that you put over the keyboard when closed and in transit...anyone know what it is... where to get one?
thanks!!

When you use Disk Utility on the Leopard installation DVD, can you see the Macintosh HD partition?

It was working perfectly fine jailbroken before the bad sync happened. I take it that it's safe to do a backup through ifunbox before doing a reset?

I'm pretty sure your wife has a 24'' iMac if it is from 2006. Given that, the screen alone will be a noticeable upgrade for her.
I have no way of knowing what kind of games she plays or what she uses logic for, but I would imagine that there would be a fairly noticeable difference.

Reset the PMU - exact same thing happened to me. My FP iMac would chime, the little white light in the corner would stay on, but then nothing would happen after that.
It's located underneath the computer, you have to take the metal shielding off the bottom and expose the RAM and Airport bays. It's in one of the corners, I can't really remember, behind the transluscent plastic stuff.

your probably right,
i love bf online tho
BF1942 still has pretty good sp bots, esp for the mods like BG42, FinnWars, DCxx, FH, SilentHereos, etc.. I'd deffinetly say go with BF1942 and there are a load of quality mods to expand the gameplay with (as there are on ut2004 but i prefer BF). I get so bored very easily with UT2004, though there where one or two mods that i liked for this, like Domain, Red Orchestra and Killing Floor...
But BF1942 gets my vote :)

You can use a shellscript to make it easier:
mount -t smbfs //user@server/sharename share
this wil require you the make a folder named "share" in the user folder
This wil also work, put it in login items if you want to log into it when you log on
tell application "Finder"
open location "smb://user:password@computername/sharename"
end tell
mount -t smbfs //user@server/sharename share
this wil require you the make a folder named "share" in the user folder
This wil also work, put it in login items if you want to log into it when you log on
tell application "Finder"
open location "smb://user:password@computername/sharename"
end tell

FWIW you can generally find a 2006/2007 iMac Core 2 Duo in full working condition cheaper than either a used mini or broken screen Macbook. ~$250-300.

I was very suspicious of this when I first saw it. But then I went to Ambrosia's website and it was actually there, so I downloaded it just for fun, even though I didn't really believe it. I had a feeling it was an April Fools prank. Then I read the comments on the review on macteens and my doubts were confirmed. I'm running it right now just for fun, though.
It's a very clever prank.

Hi
A couple of options come to mind, and the best solution I would recommend is to replace your router.
Option 1:
Purchase a device like a SonicWALL. I use them extensivly, and they have full bandwith monitoring and can even traffic throttle certain speed hogging applications. Not terribly complicated to setup, but understanding of networking protocals helps.
This guy costs around 350USD for a wireless edition. It is aimed at small business or for people who want to maximizer their traffic. I have a couple of friends who throttle Torrents and other P2P to only a max of 30% of their ISP performance. And the rest is for HTTP.
Option 2:
Purchase a linksys router and install DDWRT.
- There is bandwith usage reporting, not as advanced as the SonicWALL, but pretty good
- There is some traffic trottling capabilities, but to much.
Hope this helps somewhat. There are plenty of wiki's out their about the DDWRT solution

I have read a few places that people have been successful going up to 4gb of ram in the mid 07 mini but as per apple's specs the max you can put in is 2gb.
My question is has anyone upgraded their 07 mini to 4gb and did you have any issues running?
