Any Recent Anti-glare buyers can share their Views against Retina and Performance/Battery
Can some one Share their Recent Purchase of MBP or Retina MBP Performance, Battery Life, Anti-glare!!
I have the rMBP. Performance is incredible, especially with app launching. Power button to desktop takes about 12 seconds, and 90% of app launches happen within one "Dock bounce" (official unit of time in OS X ). These are the sort of things you notice, as opposed to CPU clock speeds. Very happy with the performance.
Battery life is great. It's about 5–6 hours if you just leave things as is, but if you grab gfxCardStatus, you can force the system to use the Intel HD 4000, which is a very capable graphics chip as is, and this'll get you 8–10 hours of regular use (backed up by Ars). And it'll run noticeably cooler.
Speaking of cooler, the rMBP generally runs warm under normal usage. It can get a bit toasty, especially if you kick in the nVidia chip. It doesn't get painful unless you're running some hard games; the fans can get loud as well. They sound like white noise, but you can definitely hear it.
Glare is still present, but you can look past the glare and still see what you're doing most of the time (unless the content is very dark to begin with). You can get the display bright enough to cope with almost everything except direct sunlight. Also, the Facetime HD camera shows rainbows on the screen of my iPhone when I hold the phone up to the camera. I see the same rainbows through polarized sunglasses, which means that the camera lens, or quite possibly the display glass itself is polarized. But don't hold me to that—just an observation.
@webv555: Boot Camp doesn't support automatic graphics switching—you're on the hungry nVidia chip the whole time.
Hope this helps!

Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?
No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:

iOS- Setting up Home Sharing on your iOS device

I have Windows 7, and I am being told that it does not support the newest Ai Illustrator, Are there any other alternate routes I can take to get adobe illustrator and photoshop on my computer? Perhaps an earlier version? Thanks! ~

According to this page, you can use it for CC:

Or you can buy CS6:

The only thing I see in terms of "toolbars" is a single strip with these options: "Most Visited," Getting Started," and "Latest Headlines." I normally know how to open toolbars that have been obscured: "view" to "toolbars" and then select. Except I don't have "view" to select...the toolbar that usually contains it is not there.
Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

I got the iphone 5 six months ago. The lock button broke two months ago so I went to apple and got a new one. My lock button just recently broke so can I go get another phone seeing that it is still within the first year? Or will they not give me another one seeing I already got a new one? I've had the phone for six months and the lock button has already broke twice.
There is no limit on warranty replacements.
As long as it is defective,not damaged -

Share the view wtih GAF and HTML
Hello All,
I have Benefits enrollement application to be designed such that the screen is shared with GAF and a HTML. The HTML is a page designed and will remain the same through out all the steps in GAF.
Please look at the picture attached.
The left part of the screen is a GAF component. The complete component is configured as required an working perfect.
The right part of the screen is a HTML. This will be added as a Freestyle UIBB with the WD Component and the Window details.
I am confused on how to bring them together on a single screen. Both of them are working perfectly fine.
Please let me know on how to solve the same.
Thanks,
Krishna.Hi Maupatt,
Here is an article I found using the Data View Web Part.

You can also use the content query webpart for this, but this is just for displaying content not for manipulation.
