Basic differences between G2 and G3

hey, is there a breakdown anywhere of the basic differences between G2 and G3?
i've tried looking but everything i've read seems to single out the podcast features of g3 which to be honest, don't really do much for me, since i would be using it mostly for music.
Are there substantial differences aside from the podcast features that would justify the upgrade? and if so, any idea where i can read about them?
thanks in advance.
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

there also some more differences as compare to gb2 is the ability to do music composition for your edited imovies and one more thing if you change your track to sound efxs you can drag audio files into your onscreen keyboard or your musical typing on your assign key to do music composition which gb2 dont provide last time.

hi,
like -> used for refering existing data elements in data dictionary or in sap
type -> used for refering existing data types in sap.
types: used for creating used defined structure of tables which has fields from more tahn one table.
diff b/w types and type in creation of internal tables is that when u create a table with types then u can use same for work area creation also.
ex:
TYPES : BEGIN OF t_vbap,
vbeln1 LIKE vbeln,
posnr LIKE posnr,
kwmeng LIKE kwmeng,
netpr LIKE netpr,
netwr LIKE netwr,
werks LIKE werks,
matnr LIKE matnr,
arktx LIKE arktx,
END OF t_vbap.
data: itab1 type t_vbap
        wa_itab1 type t_vbap.
when type is used then u have to create a defintion of work area for another time when internal table doesnt have headr line as
ex:
DATA : BEGIN OF t_vbap OCCURS 0,
vbeln1 LIKE vbap-vbeln,
posnr LIKE vbap-posnr,
kwmeng LIKE vbap-kwmeng,
netpr LIKE vbap-netpr,
netwr LIKE vbap-netwr,
werks LIKE vbap-werks,
matnr LIKE vbap-matnr,
arktx LIKE vbap-arktx,

Basic difference between WAS and Netweaver

I justwant to a know a basic fundamental question. What is the basic difference between web application server and Netweaver. I am always geting confused in these two terms. Can anybody please explain?

Hi,
NetWeaver is:
An application and integration platform that unifies people, information and business processes
New technical foundation for all future SAP applications
A replacement for BASIS framework
A platform that is based on Enterprise Services Architecture (ESA); SAP hopes to release future product offerings in compliance with ESA
NetWeaver is NOT:
A product or a language
A replacement for SAP R/3!
A marketing strategy
The SAP Web Application Server is the technical platform for SAP NetWeaver, providing the complete infrastructure to develop, deploy and run all SAP NetWeaver components, the mySAP Business Suite, customer- developed applications and 3rd-party J2EE 1.3 compliant applications.
SAP Web AS fully supports both the proven ABAP technology and the open source internet-driven technologiesJava and Java 2 Enterprise Edition, also called J2EE.

What are the Basic Differences between Oracle and MS-SQL server Database?

Hello,
anybody pls Guide me about the Differences between Oracle and MS-SQL server Database.and also IBM Databases also
Regards,
Balaram

SQL Server only works on Windows-based platforms, including Windows 9x, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows CE.
In comparison with SQL Server , OracleDatabase supports all known platforms, including Windows-based platforms, AIX-Based Systems, Compaq Tru64 UNIX, HP 9000 Series HP-UX, Linux Intel, Sun Solaris and so on.
The SQL Server advantages:
SQL Server holds the top TPC-C performance and price/performance results.
SQL Server is generally accepted as easier to install, use and manage.
The Oracle Database advantages:
Oracle Database supports all known platforms, not only the Windows-based platforms.
PL/SQL is more powerful language than T-SQL.
More fine-tuning to the configuration can be done via start-up parameters.

Basic difference between stateful and entity beans???

Could anyone please explain the basic diff between stateful bean and an entity bean.as per my understanding,stateful beans are extensions to clients.they perform a job of a client and they r not persistent.also their state goes off when the server crashes or the machine is reeboted.while in contrast,an entity bean can retain its session coz' they represent a persistent field in the DB.What i have seen in few books(O'reilly,etc)where a session bean can insert some values into the DB,which means it also represents a persistent object in the DB,which contradicts the statement that "stateful session beans dont represent any persistent object in the DB".Could anyone please elaborate on this.Thanks in advance.
Jameel

Thank u very much crackers for ur valuable
suggestions.I'll throw a different one in here for free: clarity of writing is a highly-valued and useful skill in a software professional. This is especially true these days when concepts need to be clearly explained to a variety of technical peoples from all over the world. And then there's the other side of the coin: Management.
You have to get your thoughts across in a very precise manner and, unfortunately for those who have to learn it as a second lanugage, English seems to be the overall preferred medium. Which makes it even more important to use "correct" English in written communications. If you don't, your credibility diminishes and you appear to be (horrors!) unprofessional It's not that much harder to type "you" than it is to use a single letter. Besides, most people that "pay by the byte" appreciate the clarity, as well (as I've seen on Usenet, by way of covering my ass).
Now, back to our regularly scheduled post...
Is this wat u were trying to say if i
understood u correctly.Yes, the EntityBean is directly related to the data being persisted: in this case, a database table. So, using your example from below, the DB table would have two fields: a VARCHAR 'Name' and an INT 'Age.' The EntityBean would have corresponding fields/properties/variables, String name and int age.
"WHICH BEAN (Entity
or Sateful Session) SHOULD I GO 4???"No easy answer. The best one is: it depends. On what? It depends upon what you're trying to do with the data, how it's presented/manipulated, load requirements, environmental requirements, caching strategies, and about another dozen or so other high-level requirements.
My personal preference is if I need caching and the number of EntityBeans actually in existence is pretty "low" (another nebulous and arbitrary value, depending), I'll use a StatelessSessionBean as a Facade (search for "patterns" here in the forum), with the persistence in CMP EntityBeans. Which is influenced by the fact that I like playing with CMP. ;D

Difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package

Hi experts!
Could you tell me what is the difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package?
Tkanks
Gabriel

Hi,
Basic difference between Export and Export from Fact Table is
In standard package "Export" : We can perform this function when we are online and we have adequate amount of data to be exported. We can run this package eg: weekly or monthly. Here we use u201CExport Packageu201D to pull the data
And in the administrative package "Export from Fact Table" Mostly it is used to do the backend data loading basically bulk data , also any formula logic has to be implemented on the data in that case we use the administrative package.
Hope this helps.

Difference between view and window ?

Hi All,
Can you tell me a basic difference between view and window , maybe you can correlate your answers with concepts of HTML.
Rajeev

Hi Rajeev,
A window is a place for displaying your views. Your view is not available to the outside world. View is available only to your component. However, your window is an interface view, which can be displayed in other components.
A view contains your UI elements. It has a layout (a window does not). A window contains embedded views.
In the window, you can define how navigation between views takes place (by creating navigation links).

Any basic differences between AT&T and Verizon, & other questions

I am thinking of buying an iPad mini with retina display (32gb). This would most likely be the only iPad I would ever own. I would use it mostly at the house with wifi, but would like to have one with cellular for when we travel in the US and Canada, and for when the electricity goes out. We currently live in a location where both AT&T and Verizon are viable options, but sometime in the next year we hope to move. The state is rural and mountainous, so as we drive around, my spouse's iPhone (with an AT&T plan) often loses service, but so does my Jitterbug phone, which is not tied to any one carrier (as far as I know). A phone can get a signal in one locaton, but then lose it a few feet down the road. So, there is no way I can choose between AT&T or Verizon based on coverage because both are options right now and there is no way to predict which one(s), if any, might provide service to wherever we end up moving to. Therefore, I'm wondering if there are any basic differences between AT&T and Verizon (or any other of the possible carriers) in what they offer or how they work or what they charge and so on that can help me decide which one to choose since it is my understanding that once I pick one of them for an iPad, that decision can never be changed without purchasing a new device. (e.g., I had read somewhere that Verizon does not allow for voice and data at the same time, but since an iPad is not a phone, is that even an issue?) Also, will the iPad work if there is only regular 4G or 3G service? And will a cellular iPad work without signing up for a data plan since I expect to start with only wifi and then add a data plan later? Thank you.

Alfred DeRose, Thank you for answering the second and third questions. Judging by what you wrote, I am assuming there are no differences between what AT&T and Verizon offer that affects iPads, other than looking at coverage area and the cost of "pay as you go" plans. And, as noted, coverage is not something I can base a decision on at this time. So, I either flip a coin to choose between AT&T and Verizon and hope the result is the right one after we move to wherever we end up finding a place to live, or I continue to wait for another year or more until we actually find a new house before I buy an iPad (or maybe a Kindle Fire HDX 8.9"to save money, but I think I've probably settled on an iPad mini retina 7.9" despite its smaller screen). That does not move me along the decision-making process at all, but it is what it is.
Greatcall has not answered my question about what carrier(s) the Jitterbug Plus phone uses. If, in fact, it uses just the Verizon network, I will try to pay better attention to any possible differences in service areas between that phone and my spouse's iPhone as we travel around the state to see if that helps at all. But coverage is so location specific here that I don't think it will.

What is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM

Hi GURU'S,
what is the basic difference between Hyperion Planning and HFM and when do we choose them.

On a high level the difference is this:
1. HFM is best for global collection (collecting data from scattered entities), group consolidation and for easily structuring financial reporting (mainly consisting of financial data)
2. Planning is best for modeling your business, starting from a demand forecast and arriving to capacity planning and finally to financial statements, by utilizing business drivers (non-financial data like volumes, prices, productivity rates etc)
Of course, differences may be analyzed at several levels down to technical, but the discussion may turn out to be too long, yet adding little value to the question: "when do we choose the one over the other". Bear in mind that your requirements may turn out that you need both.

Difference between BAPI and RFC?

Difference between BAPI and RFC?
also where to use BAPI and where to use RFC?

Hi,
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
Reading instances of SAP business objects
GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values, for example, company codes and material numbers.
The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved and returned to the calling program. The instance is identified via its key. The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method. BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed so that they can be called several times within one transaction. For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction, the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2. After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
Change( )
The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.

Thanks,
P PrakashI think oracle document do not talk about the Difference or No Difference between IS and AS. So i feel this is not a question that need to be pointed to the document.
To OP
Basically as others said there is no difference between them. They are just gramatical representation.
For example when i create a standalone stored procedure i tend to use AS and when i create a procedure inside a package i tend to use IS. Its just the choice you can make.

Difference Between BAPI And RFC in ABAP

Hi,
i want to know difference between BAPI and RFC in SAP,
can we call SAP GUI screen from NON SAP System Using BAPI.
Reg,
Hariharan

Hi Ravishankar,
The difference is not importat while you understand the concept.
I think, RFC is the protocol for calling functions from external systems in R/3.
I understand like BAPI a series of complet functions that SAP offers you for use and model a business use.
But if I need program a function that can be called for external system i would call it RFC_NAME, because is a unique function that makes a single task.
In other words, the difference i think is about work idea more than another thing.
RFC
A remote function call is a call to a function module running in a system different from the caller's. The remote function can also be called from within the same system (as a remote call).
RFC consists of two interfaces : A calling interface for ABAP Programs and a calling interface for Non-SAP programs.
The RFC Interface takes care of :-
- Converting all parameter data to the representation needed in the remote system
Calling the communication routines needed to talk to the remote system.
Handling communications errors, and notifying the caller, if desired ( using EXCEPTIONS paramater of the CALL FUNCTION).
BAPI
BAPIs are standardized programming interfaces (methods) enabling external applications to access business processes and data in the R/3 System.
BAPIs provide stable and standardized methods to achieve seamless integration between the R/3 System and external applications, legacy systems and add-ons.
BAPIs are defined in the BOR(Business object repository) as methods of SAP business object types that carry out specific business functions.
BAPIs are implemented as RFC-enabled function modules and are created in the Function Builder of the ABAP Workbench.
The most critical difference btwn BAPI and FM is that BAPI can be wrapped in Business objects whereas RFC cant.
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types.
