Turtle Tattoo Designs

I was browsing through the "April 2011 Desktops" forum, and I was wondering how people are customizing their backgrounds. I'm new here, so I'm still learning. For example, I've seen people with custom icons on their docks, and on their desktop, it shows the weather and time and all that. How can I get those? Thanks, and sorry for the noob question.

Here's mine. :)

it strikes me as very monty python-esque animation...I LIKE!

Who.. does... Arn work for?! :D Very cool, I like it. I actually feel like the image of Steve Jobs as Dr. Evil is good enough to stand on it's own without any of the other animation necessary at all.

Those ****** %}%^>&$s! How could they do this?!?!? :mad:

I'm with both sides on this argument.

Not the best Keynote I've ever seen, but then again, with such an impressive device like the iPhone (and I think most people are agreed on that), it would have been a very long Keynote if Steve had demo'd Leopard features as well. :rolleyes:

I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt, and wait for an announcement of another 'special event' in the near future. :) Hope so anyway.

Kind of a bitter-sweet day for me.

i just sold out and bought it, too. :D

How can you pre-order if the 2GB shuffle is not even on Apple's website?

Hey, the first time saw 5G iPod, I thought, why are they talking about a 5 gig iPods, when the current iPod is 30 and 60 gigs...

We all make that mistake when we first see that terminology...

Tell me you didn't...

still working on it, but this is how it currently looks...

It shows that I didn't check on that subject for a while... :)

Pretty cool:

Fantastic! :D

M-Audio sonica when I'm using speakers and whatever is built into my Logitech USB headset.

As a premium choice, I would be using an M-Audio Audiophile card, internal or external, as it seems to be the best of the bunch available for Macs.

I though this was an upgrade from Tweetie 1 and now i have to pay again for the same app :mad:

Not the same app, totally new app.

is there a way i can install itunes 10.2 without getting osx 10.5?

No. You should upgrade to 10.5 anyway since you use it as a file server and 10.5 has much better local networking capability and a built in VNC client to remotely control it from your other Macs.

For your needs 10.5 makes a lot of sense.

We can hope!

I wonder if there will be a critical point where enough states get rid of it so the rest follow?

No.

gotta be a first ... guess the losing bidders are happy

That's because, One) All the people you hear about are department heads, and when you're in charge of a segment of a large corporation you're typically a Vice President, and Two) Apple doesn't just throw people into a position as a filler. When you are put in charge of a division of Apple, you're there because you've done good things in the past and they expect you to be there for the long haul.

Yeah, but you hardly hear of a "President" of some department. It's like the two levels are VP and Senior VP. If there is a Vice, there should be a President, no? :)

ok. its now running from a 320Gb sata drive!

I left carbon copy cloner running all night to make the bootable copy.

I was a little bit worried about leaving all night as I could not watch the temps. I guess I'm just a bit worried I may have screwed up the thermal paste. But no, it survived showing 52deg when I checked this morning.

Especially because it's a file server you should be running Nap on it. Someone around the PowerPC forum here posted a link to CHUD 3.5.2 which is what you need for Nap to work on an MDD. I forget exactly which thread though. Your idle temps will be in the low 40's then.

When I used to have a dual 1.42 and dual 867 MDD I ran nap on both and also rigged a second 120mm fan on the back of the case. With the extra 120 on the back the same 867 model you have was down in the high 30's when idle and never higher than maybe 48C even under heavy load for hours. Used only as a file server though the CPU's will almost always be idle. Even a single 350MHz G4 would be plenty of power for a file server.

So to sum up.. using nap will help keep the CPU's even cooler than cool and give them many more years of life to power your file access.

And what happens if we don't want HDCP then?

Then you cannot display the "highest" resolution version of the media. Either none, or a resolution crippled version (ie 480p vs 1080i).

Here is a 30 second version for my actual entry. The other one is just for your Mac loving pleasure.
