And don't forget that sometimes a country has more than one official language, such as Canada.

A client of mine spilled a Diet Coke on her unibody white MacBook. I got the machine weeks after the event and after Apple told her it'd be $750 to repair. The machine would not power up or show any signs of life.

I took it apart thinking I'd find gunk on the parts and start by cleaning it up. So, I completely disassembled it only to find nothing gross inside. In fact I found no evidence of a spill. I did not take the top case apart - the keyboard and trackpad are still attached. So it appears that the spill was probably contained within the top case and didn't leak down onto the logic board.

I'm thinking about replacing the top case as I'm pretty sure that's screwed up. But, short of ordering one, reassembling everything and trying to see if that fixes it, is there some way to further troubleshoot?

Yes I agree. I have a thin logitech wireless backlit keyboard and its been on for 4 months and I haven't changed the battery. It is also charged via USB so it works even when it runs out of battery.

The issue is I have Best Buy credit and I need to know what to get. Is the Samsung going to be more powerful then the iMac refresh on Tuesday. I know there are differences between laptop and desktop systems but am trying to decide which to go.

OMG! OMG! OMG! A Blue Ribbon! Yippee! :):):)

Thanks for your votes folks! Congrats to all the winners! There were lots of great entries for this contest and I'm very pleased to have won. As xUKHCx knows, the blue ribbon is what everybody wants!

calderone, great entry. You have mad design skills. What a battle that was! If you ever make a keyboard with that button, sign me up for one.

Do we really need a smaller phone? Some are so small that they're difficult to hold now. I'd like to see one that turns off the car's engine as soon as you start to dial. :D

I still think they need to make a QuickTime device to play movies and music on the run. If it also has organising capabilities, all the better. Wireless communications would be a necessity, however.

location?

Open the Console.app in the Utilities folder. Bring up the context menu on each log listed on the left hand side and hit Reveal in Finder. It is perfectly safe to delete them all. Yes those logs will get MASSIVE. Afterward you should empty the Trash.

Okay !!

But do you think after 5 years of use it be more 15 GB the logs?

I just installed the Intel 320 (120 GB) and I must say that I'm amazed.. No set-up besides the TRIMenabler patch

That's great news!

Did you get the OEM or Retail version? I'm ordering the OEM version, but I don't know if I'll be missing any screws or anything.

(I don't need the cables to clone my drive - I'm gonna migrate my data files using Time Machine.)

thanks,

Bring back Jim Morrison with the Doors. Convince him he's playing in Miami again...

My Xbox was the same. I've heard Wii chips have a stealth mode too.

Good for them. Amazon is going to have to play by the same rules as everyone else.

The bigger issue though is whether tax breaks do any good. There's some evidence that companies search out the best deals and then jump ship when they find better ones.

VW and the state of Saxony in Germany are a good example of a long-term and mutually beneficial public/private relationship.

Why give a break if the company only has low wage, low benefit jobs? Wouldn't it be better to help provide financing and long term staying power if the company makes use of the graduates from your schools?

The short term mentality of so many American capitalists makes for a lot of wealthy gamblers but does nothing for the long term stability of American society.

Are either of these options possible?

1. He sends the iPhone 4 32GB to you, and you have to give the post office employee the iPhone 4 16GB in exchange for the one he sent you?

2. He refunds the 100au or so difference between the iPhone 32gb and the one he sent you?

Keynote @ Hour 2: Michael Jordan walks on stage spinning the MacBook Air on his finger...

Jordan makes more sense, but maybe the Globetrotters will help make up the entourage.

I think the name is dumb. I don't think they would link the product name to an easy to see banner. Obviously, the banner was meant to build hype or they would have just kept it covered.

They'll almost certainly do something cool with a wireless device, but I'm *certain* they won't name a machine Macbook Air. It doesn't even make any sense really.

My bed, pillow and quilt! :)

Now, can we teach wolves to bring down helicopters?

We can teach dolphins to sink ships, but they are both on/under water.

Teaching a wolf to fly might be the flaw in your proposal. :D

9to5mac thinks that it would be called the MacBook Air, so the name has to be right.

just go to finder and applications and move to the trash ?

Yes, that will get rid of the bulk of the app.

Windows is a typical masturbation operating system that constantly tries to satisfy itself (herself/himself?).

Windows 7 has many background processes that do things, consume CPU cycles and therefore nibble battery capacity.

OS X like most UN*X operating systems is behaving more orderly here.I would avoid looking at Activity Monitor for the rest of your life. :eek:

The i5 is much faster than a C2D. The GPU isn't any slower. That should answer your question about playing games.

However, I'm not going to help you lie. If your MB is getting so hot that it really is burning you, that sounds broken to me. Besides, what happens when you try to present a broken computer and they figure out it really works just fine?

Send them C.O.D. to AOL.

Export to Quicktime presentation, install Quicktime on PCs.

edit: kayjprod beat me to it.

This method has a lot of drawbacks.

First, it generates huge files. All transitions are movies rather than a slide that is just rotated by a graphics program.

Second, You loose a lot of control over the presentation. Flipping back and forth between slides, cursor control, animation timing, etc.

Third, The final movie never looks as good for some reason. Maybe it is just a matter of changing parameters somewhere but my files are huge and my transitions, slides, fonts,etc. don't look as high res or clear.

I agree that Keynote needs a freely distributable player like PowerPoint has. This would allow you to send the condensed slide-only file to the OS X or Windows user and he or she would have the same control and effects over the presentation as in Keynote. QT just isn't the same as the PowerPoint freely distributed player on Windows.

I haven't pre-ordered, but at this point do you think it will make any difference. I plan on heading to the Apple store at 6:00 am or so.

I reserved mine and I still plan on getting to the Apple store about 5-6am on Fri. :)
