I've wanted a popcorn hour for a while, but I never pulled the trigger because of some negative
stuff I had read. I've been looking at that new WD HD TV adapter, but it requires and external HD,
and can't be hooked up to the computer and adapter at the same time (i'm looking for something
compact and easily portable).
A friend suggested I just get a Mac Mini to use as a media computer hooked up directly to my tv,
and after reading about the mac mini, I must say I like the idea, it can play every media format
possible (which the Apple TV can't), and I get that awesome looking front row program with a
remote. Even at the lowest options (2ghz, 2gb RAM) it's overkill for a media computer. Couple
possible questions though:
1) I read about the possible refresh coming at the end of January, do you think Apple would
possibly put an HDMI out on a mac mini, or is it is almost definitely DVI and/or DisplayPort
only?
2) I'd like to store a lot of media in the computer itself, rather than hook up an external HD. The
mac mini has a 2.5" drive inside, so the highest I could upgrade is only 320gb, which still isn't a
ton. Is it at all possible to open up a mac mini and install a 3.5" HD in place of the CD-ROM
drive? Would there be any negative issues caused by this (heat, stability, etc.)?
3) Is it easy to network a Mac and a PC? My main computer is a PC, but I would like to be able to
easily transfer files to the Mac Mini from the PC
Thanks for any help.

Hey guess. So the ole blinking folder with question mark appeared with startup today. I inserted
the startup disk and booted from that and then selected the appropriate HD and everything seems to
be working well now.
is there anything else i should do to check my hd or anything? just to make sure everything is in
order?

Many people with OS X have the widget istat. I think this widget is very cool by showing you stuff
like cpu usage, HD temp and other stuff like battery health. Is there any way/chance of there being
an app for the iphone/ipod touch that would bring istat to the ipod touch? Is the stuff that it
does against app store rules?

It looks like HD recording capabilities for mobile phones may come sooner than expected. Aptina,
a division of Micron who manufactures mobile phone camera sensors, has just announced the MT9P013
high resolution 5-megapixel sensor which is also able to record 720p HD video at 60fps and
5-megapixel video at 15fps. True, there are already 8-megapixel
wonder phones out now, but how many can boast of HD video recording capabilities? Furthermore,
it’s already going into production in January next year so we can more or less expect an
HD-ready mobile phone out in 2009. Now that’s what I call a major upgrade to the already
technologically advanced mobile phone camera.

 Au moment ou j'écris cet
article, je n'ai que très peu entendu parler de ce logiciel.
Ni Accessoweb, ni Nowhereelse n'ont présenté VIPeers.
Même si le nom peut faire penser à un produit anglais ou américain, celui-ci
est bien français ( cocorico !). L'application est, en effet, l'oeuvre de Louis Choquel ,
connu pour ZSlide. VIPeers est un logiciel
destiné "héberger, transférer, partager...tout fichier, peu importe son
format, ou sa qualité - HD power !! en utilisant le Direct Download ou BitTorrent, sur toute
plate-forme : sites Web, Blogs, Forums, Réseaux Sociaux...". Je n'ai pas eu l'occasion
de tester le programme mais à l'heure où la loi DAVDSI fait pas mal débat, notamment
avec la "possibilité" de couper l'accès web aux internautes qui contreviendraient
à la loi.
Pour le moment, aucune réaction des autorités, jusqu'à quand ? car VIPeers
peut très vite être détourné pour télécharger films et
musiques...

Radeon HD 4870 équipée du système de refroidissement Direct Touch de la

Gainward, il n’en n’a vraisemblablement pas les performances puisque notre

Has anyone else tried setting up an encrypted drive?
Wow, what POS software comes with this thing!! It claims to be Leopard and Time Machine
compatible.
After installing "Freecom Hard Drive Pro" software, for which there is no updated version for OS X
since last year's version on the freecom.com support website:
- it enables the "backup" button on the HD, which, rather than triggering Time Machine, seems to
back up independently from TimeMachine. I stopped it as it was apparently copying stuff over to a
different location than Time Machine
- the only reason I bothered to install the software was to use encryption. After installing the
software, the manual instructs the user to press the "Encryption" button. This brings up: "you
don't have an encrypted partition set up yet" (good). Then click "Configure" / "Modify
Encryption":
"UNKNOWN EXCEPTION GETENCRYPTION" :eek:
From there it goes downhill!!
Freecom didn't notice this minor detail????????
Perhaps I am being too harsh and someone can come to my rescue with a good pointer? Please!!

Evening :)
I'm thinking about upgrading my hard drive in the macbook pro, like the ram it's 'special'
Does the hard drive have to be a particular type? or is their a nice little list i can choose
from?
Cheers,
Is it worth going for a SSD or just a bigger and better than the current one i've got?
(Just for the record, i've got the one that did not recently come out, the one just before it) haha
