I would prefer to see Apple connect with an EVDO carrier... Apple Airport extreme cards with EV-DO?
Thank god they got rid of cingular, or visa versa... TOO SLOOOOW. :D
But T-Moblie and Cingular are rolling out HSDPA which is even faster than EV-DO.

That's still far out in the future.
I guarantee you that iLife '11 and Mac OS X 10.7 will be delivered via CD/DVDs.
I don't think it is as far as some people may think. There are already good examples of similar systems. In the UK, most TV Channels deliver content online. The BBC were first (i think) with iPlayer. They offer their HD content via iPlayer as well.
I am sure BT made some complaints initially over the extra demand placed on them. However, the other channels followed and BT had to suck it up.
There will certainly have to be a period of transition. Especially for countries with less developed infrastructure.

Subtotal $98,711.00
Just keep in mind that $50k of that price is the support contract. :eek:
I'm not sure what you'd be doing with a single XServe (and 14.9TB of storage) that would require 24/7 1-hour response service from Apple, but hey -- whatever floats your boat. :cool:

It will be only useful to me if it doesn't require a constant Internet connection (as is the case with Google's solution).
Roaming costs are ludicrous, and I need navigation most often when I'm abroad.

I work at a small embedded software development house and I am moving my entire team to Macs (MBP). We do mostly Linux-based development and we are using Parallels on the MBPs to run Suse Linux and then using X11 on the Mac to have a single unified desktop.
I hope in a couple of years to have the whole company moved over. You should see the interest from the other teams in how we are using Macs (and if they can join my team!).
I could not have done this if it was not for Apple's Bootcamp and Parallels and the Intel switch.
The world is changing!

stretching ear lobes is fun!! im at 8 right now, going up to 2 in a month or so. ;)
OOoooowwwww...... (well, it looks like it hurts!)
but I have no idea of what those numbers mean...
also , I don't think I have the look to get away with stretching my lobes. :p
nope, plain vanilla 2nd set of holes. For studs. Because wearing 2 sets of hoops at once looks a little .... not my cup of tea, I can't get away with it, either. :p
got pics of your ear? :)

I'm suprised nobody has mentioned 3 TB drives, you can get 7200 RPM 3TB drives for $179 or 5400 RPM 3TB drives for $149 these days, why not reduce the number of bays you need by ~50%.
It doesn't sound like you need incredibly high performance given that it's for archiving video and your internet uplink is only 1.5 MB.
You didn't mention your budget, if it's on the low side, I'd go with a Linux NAS, you could build the whole thing for under $4k.
$335 20-bay SATA chassis http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811219033
$300 for 2x Intel SASUC8I 8 port SATA controllers
$80 for 4x SFF-8087 cables
$500 for a Mobo, RAM, CPU
$2100 for 14x 3TB 5400 RPM drives @ $149 each
$150 ~800watt quality power supply
$150 misc cooling fans & wiring, dvd drive
Run it RAID-6 with 2x hot spare on Linux. If afpd meets your performance expectations, you're good to go. I have a 10x 5200rpm 2TB RAID-6 linux NAS media server on a 3 or 4 year old low end athlon x2, I get 250 MBps on reads with software RAID-6. afpd is single threaded and will likely be a frustrating bottleneck for writes, it will hang during writes while it syncs to disk periodically. The above config would have no problem saturating gig ethernet during a read and come close to it during a write. Using it as a SAN via iSCSI may allow for higher performance, although you'd need to bounce incoming connections off another server.
So thats your low end, look into redundant X-Serves with DAS arrays for your high end (or EMC if you have a few hundred grand to blow).
Keep in mind RAID is not a replacement for backup, if you are not going to backup to external media at least consider a filesystem with extra space and snapshots, and maybe a second identical server you can replicate to. A higher quality chassis, redundant power supplies, hardware RAID, an X-Serve w/ DAS would be nice steps up.

Hello kind folks of MacRumors.com-
I am wishing for help and advice deciding what type of hardware to purchase for a 30TB server. It must meet the following requirements:
• 30TB RAID (Redundancy important for backup purposes)
• Remote Accessibility in that I would like to be able to pull files from it anywhere that I have an internet connection.
• Macintosh friendly– it does not need to run OS X Server, it just needs to connect without hassle to Macs.
This will be used for at my office for archiving video. We may want to use Final Cut Server to sort the files in the future. I have been tasked with building this setup and am hoping for suggestions from one of the brightest communities on the web. :D
Your time in responding is much appreciated.

I wonder if the only reason the % has gone up is because of a higher number of people shopping at places like Dell.com. Apple has yet to offer a real reason to shop online rather than shop at a store, so while PC buyers flock to online purchases Apple buyers stick with regular stores since theres no point to shop at apple.com unless theyre out of stock.
Although those kids probably arent very conerned about finding the best price online.

I'd like to know if it will run on my last-gen 24 inch iMac (The cheaper 24 inch), before I commit. Portal 1 runs fine (without any fancy stuff).
Anyway, the whole idea of a FPS where you don't quite 'shoot', is brilliant IMO. Best game ever :)
I think it means "Fast Portal Selection".

I'll still use the mac pro so that would be 5 systems.
Heat is a problem for me too so the overclocking will have to wait a while and a new build will have to wait a couple of months.
oh ok. yeah 5 systems is quite a bit. i think for right now 4 is my limit. so for me to get anything else, i'd have to sell something. but we'll see. i'd love to build a 6 or 12 core system

No iP5 so just to keep the torches and pitchforks at bay Apple "releases" the same thing just with different lipstick. LOL!
Sadly, there's plenty of folks that will lap this up.
And why is this to be "sadly?" People buy phones all year around. Grow up.

Garmin is finally finished with their Training Center (http://garmin.blogs.com/my_weblog/2006/12/to_mac_owners.html) program for the Mac. It will be available on CD at their booth and downloadable from their website in late January. I would rather not wait until late January, so I'd be happy to paypal someone a couple dollars to ship a CD to me if you happen across the Garmin booth.
Thanks!
Thanks!

The larger and more popular Apple becomes as a company, the harder it will become for them to keep such a tight lid on what we're not supposed to see. From the first iPhone to the last, look at their ability to keep their unreleased projects away from the tech blogs. It will only get worst.

You know...i have been a silent observer on this site for years. I never have ever signed up for a user name because i enjoyed reading different people's perspective, and felt it was best for me to just not get involved...but this has changed recently.
The apple community has changed with the increased popularity. Where as it was once a small group of evangelists fighting for apple to succeed, it is now half of the old order, and half of some sort of new "apple better not have any flaws in anything they produce, and everything they make had better use the best hardware on the planet, or else they suck and i am ditching them for microsoft/google." The fun seems to be leaving the building. I remember a lot of quirky apple products from the early days, including the macintosh. Can you imagine that apple had a computer that you couldn't expand the memory on?? can you imagine?? what would happen if they released that today...i swear people would threaten to sue apple for false advertizing because apple told them it was a good product, but it didn't meet exactly everything they want.
The antenna issue on the iphone 4 is a perfect example. I hear everything from apple should give away free bumpers to "steve jobs is a horrible ******* who stole my money, and handed me a tin can with a string on it in exchange"....come on now, people. Please.
Due to my line of work, i have encountered several iphone 4's in several midwestern states, and in several apple stores. Can you, if so inclined, reduce the signal to the phone by bridging the gap between the two antennas? Yes. Does it result in a horrible catastrophic failure of every feature of the device every time you pick it up? No.
The responses of "i'm just going to complain about dropped calls until i'm blue in the face, or apple resolves the issue, and i'm going to continue holding the phone in my left hand, without a case because that's how i've always used a phone" is akin to saying "i'm going to continue to fall on my face every time I take a step in my new air jordans because i've always worn sandals, and never had to tie my own shoes before, so i will continue this behavior until nike issues a fix so i don't keep falling on my face."
