I bought a refurb 27" 2.8 i5 Quad Core, 4GB, ATI Radeon HD 5750, 1GB memory in the last month. I called Apple yesterday asking if I could swap it out for one of the new models and they gave me the ok. So now I'm looking at the base 27" 2.7 i5 Quad Core, 4GB, AMD Radeon HD 6770M, 512MB.
Is there going to be a major difference between the two video cards? I'm not sure how much better the 6670M is than the 5750. Dropping half the memory sounds like it could take a hit in performance. I was thinking of jumping up to the 27" 3.1 i5 Quad Core, 4GB, AMD Radeon 6970M 1GB, but I'd rather spend the cash on a 2TB HDD instead since I've almost maxed out my 1TB.
I'm not a heavy gamer. Mostly Civ V, Starcraft, Diablo III when it hits and the Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic MMO via bootcamp when it releases. I'll probably throw in a few other titles here and there as well. Other then that I use handbrake a lot, Pages, and iTunes to stream to my AppleTV 2. I also do some minimal video editing on it as well.

Absolutely...I run 10.4.2 on my old Sawtooth 400 Mhz G4 which I use as a web server, while I do my graphic production work on my Dual G5. It definitely helps if you have your RAM slots maxed out. I have 1GB in mine and the beachball still spins sometimes. OSX 10.4.2. is a bit of a RAM hog.

Run hardware test.
What monitor/s and how are they connected?
Cheers
Hadn't thought of running a hardware test. Thanks.
I am using an 22" Viewsonic LED connected via MiniDisplay Port/MiniDisplay-DVI adapter.

I heard that Apple was scheduled to release them a month back, but they got stuck somewhere overseas in outbound shipping or something. It's probably somewhere else on here that I heard it, but I forget where.

If you do wind up using either iFunBox or iPhoneExplorer, you'll need to add/download "afc2add" in order for them to work FYI

Does it work with the mini Ipod? Would like to know how useful it would be for the Mini Ipod Owners.

That was an April fools joke, if you didn't already know.
Where is it still the 1st April at this time of the day?

If you delete them from Events, then they are gone for ever. It sounds like you need an external drive.

IMAP doesn't sync contacts - you can use your exchange setup to sync mail, contacts, and calendars (and I believe notes, not 100% on that one), is there a reason why you wouldn't do that?

Hi, Im a collage student who is taking the plunge and buying a mac in the summer when i get the money. By then i will already own an iPad 2 so the portability doesn't really bother me. But was looking for a good computer to have for things that aren't that great on the iPad (i.e. essay writing). I don't own any other the things expected to be with a mac mini (keyboard, mouse).
Anybody owned both and have a preference or can recommend either a mac mini or macbook. :):)

Miss the old typefaces, namely this one, Apple Garamond.
Ahhh, the amusing thing is that its still used on corporate notepaper (at least if you look at the letter sent after the lost-iPhone-4 calamity - its right there in Apple Garamond).

The guides category needs some better organization IMO.
We should decide if we want almost everything in sub-categories or most of it just in the guide category itself. I think having it half-half just confuses users and makes articles harder to find.
We should use the distinction between subcategories and the actual category to distinguish between more "important" and less "important" guides.
In an attempt to make the Mac Beginner's Guide more prominent I added a sub-category but I don't know whether this would be the best way to go about it, so before I do anything else I think we should talk about how we want to organize this category.
So feel free to delete the subcategory I created until we figure something out.

Nothing is listed, even though a device is plugged in.
Try another device. repeat system profiler check.
I had a similiar problem with an external hard drive. Would not register, then plugged in an apple mouse to same USB port, it registered.
My solution was a reboot, then the system recognized the external drive.

You could always fashion up a lap table of sorts for the laptop to sit on. Maybe some flat wood or something and fire retard it :p

She left it unplugged for a day or two and it started to work again. Not sure what the problem was but I guess it's working fine now.

I think people are having their MacGasms a little eary.
Usually they wait for Steve to walk out on stage with his Keynote Remote before they have their first MacGasm.
