Happy Birthday!
How about you ask for Apple Store gift cards in the amount of the Classic and see what transpires in September/October?

People are getting way to desperate and inpatient for the iPad 2 JB. My only regret is I didn't hold on to my first gen, but hey, what are you going to do?

I have a friend with a similar machine where I think the graphics chip is getting flaky -- replacement logic boards are surprisingly expensive, though I found a couple places that will fix it mail-order for around $350 US. Apple might even fix it for around that price too. I'll be interested to see what you come up with.
Yes -- I posted on the Apple flat rate $350, out of warranty fix it plan. I was using it to get the logic board replaced on my 2006 original core duo mbp. They started the transaction for me in the apple store at the genius bar, and apparently the only real requirement is that the laptop isn't badly physically damaged or liquid damaged. You could probably start the process with applecare representatives as well, even though you're out of warranty.
They estimated 5-7 days to turn it around for me. After 10 days or so they were still waiting for the part. When I called they expedited it, then after another two days, just offered me a 50% discount on a new mbp.
I happily took them up on their order, and they set up a CTO 15" mbp for me at my request. Ended up saving over $1000 off of the full price. A very nice turn of events that, given how scarce those old logic boards appear to be, may well end up happening to you as well. If not, it's a fairly cheap repair, all things considered.

Tempted - what boot loader is on it (what firmware was it when it was out of the box)? What week number is on it (4th and 5th digits of the SN).

I havent gotten my ipod yet.. but i will be soon, so i am trying to upload my CDs on my powerbook in itunes. I was wondering if someone could explain to me what apple lossless is in general terms and how it works? I am still kinda new to Macs so could you explain it fully. I noticed that after I imported my CD, I would go to the advanced menu in itunes and selected convert to apple lossless... it then converted my files. I went into my music folder that holds all my files and i see that i have 2 of everything I converted with apple lossless. The file extentions are the same sooo... what is going on here. I would like to know also if converting my songs to this format will allow me to have more room on my ipod???? What is the positive and negatives of this converting? I just need someone to explain this whole apple lossless idea to me and what it does. Thanx in advanced! ;) :)

Time capsule is meant to be a backup drive...Did you delete all your music off your laptop as soon as it was on your TC?
Thanks for the tip and yes, that's exactly what I did. Macbook Air has a tiny hard drive and I was running out of space. I will need to buy another 1TB hard drive to backup my TC going forward!

I don't know anything about ATA passwords, but one of the expected new features of Lion is whole disk encryption. You might as well wait for that and get it free with the OS and supported by Apple.

Isn't that the one I gave you that fried your HP laptop, if so not very wise to pass it on to somebody else... :rolleyes: .
Considering you gave me this after I got my iBook, no it wasn't :P

My colleague has one and I have to say that I am impressed by the Zune. It's as good, if not better than any portable media player on the market and I loved the brown shell. The problem is that Microsoft doesn't know how to play from behind the competition, especially with a device that only serves one purpose and can't really be improved enough to catch people's attention. It was a silly decision to jump in the market so late in the game. Apple's market share in this sector was insurmountable.

Someone on the 68k Macintosh (http://68kmla.net/forums/index.php?sid=9757cfe5acee5202175ed5f07f335739) forum might be interested. Lots of retro computer guys there are on the lookout for older systems even if they are PPC.

In other words, they are preventing you from using alternatives (with your own personal property) so that they have the opportunity to rape you for roaming charges, over and above the services you are contractually obligated to continue to pay for over the term of your contract. That may indeed be a big reason why they don't want to do it, but that doesn't make it right. It's your property. You ought to be able to use it with any carrier you choose, regardless of if you are still under contract. The contract should only determine what you pay them and for how long, and what service they will provide to you over that period. It should not determined, over and above those terms, how you are allowed to use your own property.
You pretty much covered the high points. :)

Hmm, my title may be a bit misleading. I do understand Thunderbolt (I/o, 10 Gb's per sec, etc). However, some people have noticed the Thunderbolt port is the EXACT same as the mini display port. Whaddup with that? Does that mean, my old iMac with a mini display port is different than the coming iMac with a mini-display-port-renamed-thunderbolt? The ports are the same, it looks like they just renamed it.

Wow, thank you so much for find this for me!
I e-mailed Apple Store Shibuya few minutes ago. I hope it will go well!

ok, but you do realize its "iPod", and not "IPod"; right?
I think in an ad trying to be consistent with apples designs should at least be capitalized properly.
I was trying to keep mine distanced from the official versions - so comics sans and the 'IPod' are my own quirks.
