Go look at Pages; Word's been the "standard" for years and Pages can write Word documents. I'm sure if Lasso, Numbers, Charts, etc. will also be able to save in Excel documents. I believe AppleWorks can, and if this is a step up, and since the world has moved a little more, there should be no problem with Excel and Apple's new application.
Sorry, but Excel running on Windows (and to a lesser extend, Macs) is by far the standard, and for good reason. It runs wonderfully, on fast and horrendously slow computers.
I've been using Google Spreadsheets to some degree, and while it's kinda cool with the whole online thing, it's slow, lags, and not as good as Excel. Nobody's going to go to a class to learn Google Spreadsheets, they're going to learn Excel in school.

Oh really? Care to enlighten me then grand wizard. You show me sources that broadcast in the deep color realm (30,36,48-bit color depths), and THEN you show me the displays that support that color depth. Why do you think there is such a big argument amongst displays/component manufacturers on the merits of HDMI 1.3. If Anthem, the maker of my $6500 Statement D2 video processor, didn't feel it was necessary to add 1.3 support, then I think that's a pretty good indication of the progress of deep color support. HDMI is the same exact thing in terms of video transport as DVI - smaller connector, with a different pin mapping.

8-bit(24bit) is plenty, for a long time.
...and besides, this discussion was about DisplayPort and it's usefulness, when we already have HDMI. Maybe you don't know so much about topic discussion.
I thought that this thread is about ACDs and I believe that they are primarily used other than watching broadcast tv.
There are already displays with xvYCC and it's gamut is so big that 8-bit colors will show banding. 8-bits are enough for ntsc gamut, but not bigger.
Next versions of bd / hd-dvd specs will include xvYCC and h.264 broadcasts will probably use xvYCC also in the future.
ACDs are also used a lot in professional video post production and there is need for more than 8-bit colors. Also high quality photography needs more than 8-bits. All DSLRs have had deeper color depth than 8-bits from day one.
8-bits is enough when display's real contrast ratio is about 300:1, but when we already have displays that have contrast ratio way beyond that, there is banding on a carefully profiled display. 256 brightness levels just isn't enough. That's why sdi has had 10-bits for a decade.
So there really is need for more than 8-bits with displayport or any other way. Even average consumers will notice that within a lifetime of a new ACD.
When I buy expensive high quality devices like displays, I want them to be high quality at least half of their life, not just now.

Interesting question. I do not know the answer.
Can you process only the chapters with one ratio and then the others, and then use iMovie to put them together?

But this card is not weaker !
Much faster and that is why i Dont understand Apple to take the Radeon 9k.
You need ot to build a new card you need to build a flash rom that the card understands the Mac system its not so difficult !
See Terratec the ship Mac os drivers for der PCI sound cards drivers and flash rom and you can use terraec soun cards !
So simply same on graphic cards exspecially Nvidia cards

Never. Return your iPad 2 if this will prevent you from enjoying it.

I'm in need of a new camera. I'm currently using a Canon Powershot A630. I've had it for 5 years now, and it's served me extremely well. I love the image quality. Unfortunately, it keeps turning itself off now when I go to take a picture. It's been dropped, and I fear I damaged something.
I'm looking for a new point and shoot camera that takes quality pictures. I'm not interested in a DSLR due to cost and portability. I'd ideally like something a bit smaller than my old Canon. I'd gladly go for another Canon. I'd like it to take an SD card. Some degree of optical zoom is a must (I think that goes without saying). I'd really like a camera that still has a viewfinder. I'm a freak like that, I know, but in sunlight it's too hard to see LCDs and I want some way to work without one.
I'd really like the camera to have a geotagging feature. This would be awesome with Places in iPhoto.
Price range: sub $300.

Good photos, but as usual they need a 30" screen to be able to see the other half of the images...
Looks like a fun time was had by all, one year I'll have to attend one of these meet-ups.

Hello.
I was wondering if someone can help me make up my mind if i should buy the macbook 13" i5 core or the i7 one.
I'm using my laptop for gaming and school.
The game im mostly playing is Heroes of Newerth, so i hoped that someone could help me pick which one i should choose - and if it's worth the extra money buying the i7 Core.
Greetings :apple:

Buy OS X 10.2 it's still cheap...

Unlike the cost of trying to buy OS X 10.1 which included OS 9.2.1 and is the reason for the higher cost.

E911 on GSM phones is handled by triangulation at the towers. GPS is not a component common to most GSM phones and certainly not a part of the standard (E911 wouldn't work with older or imported phones if they relied upon GPS.)
I think GPS is, IIRC, built into IS-95 ("CDMA") in some form, as phones have to have some idea of where they are for the system to work (GSM is more "I can hear a tower, I'll talk to that. Ooops! It's complaining I'm too loud, I'll lower my power level", that kind of thing. Very laid back and easy going. Nice.)
Actually I have 3 T-Mobile phones, each has GPS for use in E-911. Its a new federally mandated requirement.

I don't recall off the top of my head whether it's in /var/log/kernel.log or /var/log/system.log, but when the system boots back up, it provides a previous shutdown cause as an integer, and that integer can be used to point you in the right direction. There's not actually a list that's publicly available, but I might be able to find what it means for you.

They sounded pretty crappy. I might just have good ears--I can tell the difference between CD and vinyl--but that was an unacceptable loss of quality. I ended up re-ripping everything.
Some people notice these sorts of things. I used to download MP3s from Napster (remember Napster? :p) and make standard audio CDs from them. I could then rip the CD into MP3, and I couldn't tell the difference.
The other day I was listening to some 192k MP3s and they sounded fine. Then I listened to a proper CD, then back to the MP3s and they suddenly sounded terrible! I guess the "purer" sound of the CD made the MP3s sound worse or something.

You can try it and see. In theory it should work.
