There is a distinct lack of robot owls in these Clash of the Titans screenshots.
Could someone please explain the ConOps of this plane to me. Near as I can tell we'd have to have them operate out of Japan and Europe with a large air refueling fleet to keep the planes airborne 24/7 , fighter/jammer aircraft cover to protect it, and an army of well payed contractors to roll around in the piles of cash this system represents to Boeing and NG. This system would require SAC-era flight plans with the planes circling near hot spots ready to fire the laser at a moments notice. And unlike SAC, Slim Pickens doesn't get to ride any bombs.

We should just go back to the Sprint and Spartan systems.

Don't worry. Home appears to be a giant advertisement for Twilight and the wireless keyboard for the controller. At least according to all of the flat surfaces in Home.
I could not get the update to work on my 1.5GHz 12" powerbook 10.4.9. Software update would crash in the middle of running the update. I already had been planning to do an Archive Install to fix some kernel panics. After the Archive Install the update ran fine. The powerbook did reboot twice as others have noted.
Just use Terminal or X11 and > the results of ls into a text file.

ls . > list.txt

and then open the text file. It's a UNIX box, use the command line.
It's basically an Airport Express for video the way I look at it. I was hoping it would have video in ports so it could be used as a DVR. When I get around to buying an HD TV I might pick up an AppleTV.

It's lowest supported resolution is 480p, right? No 480i for those of us stuck in the Stone Age?
The over the air music service is only viable if Cingular has a 3G network up and running in a good number of major US markets. I doubt GPRS/EDGE has either the bandwidth or speed to support a music download service running at the same time as normal data/voice usage on the network.

The CDMA carriers can do music services because they upgraded their 1xRTT networks (at least in a good number of markets) to EV-DO, which can handle the bandwidth and are fast enough so downloading 4MB music files is bearable.

I'm supprised T-mobile didn't launch a service like the Cingular one. They could try to leverage their HotSpot network to get around the lack of over the (cellular) air ability.
I've had good luck with Missing Sync 2.0 and my old iPaq rx3115. Never had a problem with Missing Sync itself. All problems have been with PPC2003 2nd Ed. on the iPaq.

Just upgraded to Missing Sync 2.5 . I cann't get iCal to sync properly with the iPaq. Looks like a pointer arithmetic error as Missing Sync whines about an out of bounds array. But 2.5 has been out for less than a day.

I thought we weren't suposed to post obvious mac rumors a la the whole iSight/Cinema Display thing?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
