i have the rebel. It is a nice case with good accessories like a screen protector, but all the other stuff is not the best. When the case is laying on the table it wobbles making it hard to play games while taking notes in class... Anyways, it takes a while to get used to the grooves on the back but when you do, it feels normal. I dont have the other case, but i really like the rebel over all. It is quite protective too. I dropped it off of a desk onto hard floor and there was no damage to my ipod.

The iMac is getting ready to be refreshed. Should be sandy bridge processors. The mini will follow, since it uses the same parts, not long after the iMac. Your decision will depend on what your going to use it for.
The mini does not use the same parts as the iMac to be pedantic. The mini uses MBP parts. The iMac uses desktop parts.

I just did this yesterday. Tired of Lion messing up. I get the beta thing, just don't want to deal.
I have a 1TB drive so I just re-partitioned the drive while running and then installed SL into new, clean partition. Did the complete restore/install from the original disks that came with MBP.
Next, I did the Software Update thing then ran migration assistant making sure to NOT move Machine and Applications.
Restarted and then drag copied over the apps I wanted, settings that were missed and did new installs of everything else.
All told about a day (10-12 hours) and I am now SL and Lion on one drive in my MBP.
Worth it to do a clean install and not carry anything back. Move them later.

I called Apple about the battery and I told them that I had problems with the machine before. They said they would replace it. 2.4Ghz Multitouch hehe.

I am (was) working on a new guide for the "Macrumors" section,
http://guides.macrumors.com/Reply_with_multiple_quotes
when it was moved to the "Ugly Guides" section without warning, or without any feedback (HexMonkey).
When you do something like this on a guide someone has lots of time involved in, please be proactive and explain why, and offer an explanation on what needs to be fixed.
Thanks!

did you try plugging in the base station and then hit the reset button on the cable modem?

Let me guess- this was proposed by a Tea Party member.
Tea party fascists should be put up against a wall and shot! They would do this in my country.

This would be a nice feature and would fit with Apple's way of doing things.
Guess we'll know soon.
This guy seems confident though doesn't he? :p

It's too bad NBC pulled out. Now I'll just have to download pirated boxed sets of their shows already available in iPod format. Granted, I'll be a season behind, but I don't watch much TV to begin with. I just heard some of their shows are pretty good and wouldn't mind checking some of them out.

Hello all, I have recently received a iMac G5 for very cheap, I tested the machine and i have no display. The first 2 LEDS come on and the third does not. i believe the issue with it is blown capacitors, although im not 100% on this. I have never dealt with a capacitor issue so i'd figure i'd ask if that really is the problem, so it can be fixed. Heres an image of my iMac

Are the ones on the left needing replaced? Theres about 15 in the machine that look similiar, and few that look like whats on the right.
If this is indeed my problem, where could i get the capacitors that i need?

Doubt screen size has anything to do with it - I'm running three displays off my Mini without any lag (2 at 1920x1080 aka 1080p and one at 1920x1200).
Do you have the Mac Mini plugged into a port labeled HDMI/DVI that is perhaps handled differently by the TV? I'm thinking image processing on the TV might be the cause of the lag, but I'm not 100% sure.
I don't have one yet, which is why I was asking...lol...glad to hear it works great though.

no. but if you want better 'sound quality' then use a higher quality compresion (192 kbps instead of 128 kbps it makes a difference and sounds MUCH better than the 96 kbps that some mp3 players compress at). with 40 GB or the new 60 GB photo iPod availble you should have plenty of room for a better compresion.
I always rip to the highest compression rate, or uncompressed.. My problem with the ipod was that at loud volumes it distorted. The problem is with the signal-to-noise ratio on the device..
I'll look into the JBL Creatures... But I think I'm going to have a hard time replacing my THX 2.1 Klipsch speakers. I'm going to see how good they look alongside my mac.. I dont know if you guys have heard these speakers before, but they are amazing!
Thanks for the suggestions.

put it in "extend (bridge mode)" under connection sharing on the internet page.
then give it the same SSID and security settings as the main base.
your devices will automatically switch to the stronger signal as you move around the house. it will only appear once.
most large locations (like airports (not apple's devices, but the places with airplanes)) do this, and you never know.
that's only if you are using the same flavor of wireless (B,G, or N) on both units, if you are trying to create separate G & N networks, still use the bridge mode but give them different names. (up to you if the security settings are the same or not)
Thanks for the response! I currently have my base station and express setup in WDS mode, but I find that when that speeds are drastically slow when connected to the airport express. I assume this solution would resolve the downgrade in speed?
Update: Just redid my airport configurations and wireless through the bridge is much faster now. WDS officially stinks!

What about investing in ARM Holdings or Intel stocks? Since Apple shares are incredibly high right now, thus difficult to afford, would it be wiser to invest in their parts? ARM is expected to be in iPhone 5, and presumably in iPad 3 and the next iPod... and all of those items sell extremely well. We can only expect them to sell even better as Apple increases their user base through Verizon and as they enter China.
Anyone have stocks in either ARMH or Intel? I am considering investing. Thoughts?

Pages is perfectly fine for word processing, which I know from experience as I been using it for that purpose every day for nearly two years. Most of the people who say otherwise either haven't learned to use it or would have preferred that Apple produce a Word clone. Some of are very happy that they did not go that route.
