Benefits of QUAD2.5 over DUAL2.7 for MAYA6.5 Unlimited

I am currently running Maya6.5 unlimited on a dual 2.7 with Dual 19" monitorsand let me tell you it is amazing.
The thing is though that my partner also needs the computer to run other intensive apps, but not as intensive as maya. So two highpowered computers are important when we near our deadline. So i was wondering if anyone knew if the quad would run maya better and by what margins, or should i buy another Dual 2.7 givin that money really does not matter.

Well
u will have 4 processors instead of 2
a HIGH END workstation graphics card.. VERY imp. I believe for maya? I think the quadro 512mb would be sweet!
faster RAM plus more of it!
bigger Hard drives (minor detail)
so YES
as long as u do not need PCI-X or regular PCI for Cards, etc.. since PCIe (new one) has minimal devices available for it

    Very important is the span column paragraph property which allows to span several columns in a text frame or to split a column in several sub columns.
    Very important is the tag feature, which is also important for creating PDFs with unlimited access.
    A lot of problems with footnotes and page layout have been solved due to a better text engine. Up to CS5.5 it could happen that a footnote could force a page be empty when a document was opened.
    With CS5 rounded frame corners which are editable were introduced.
    Object Styles have been completed since CS3.
    Content tools to create linked content were introduced. You need only to change the original content (text or image) and all linked content will be updated as any other link. The linked content can be in the same and in any other document.
    Since CS5.5 it is much easier to anchor frames in a text flow with the little at the top of a frame symbol.

  • Looking for help with respect to configuring MS Exchange server to handle attachments over 10 MB for forwarding to Salesforce (Email-to-case).

    Looking for help with respect to configuring MS Exchange server to handle attachments over 10 MB for forwarding to Salesforce (Email-to-case).
    Problem - SFDC does not create cases from emails that have more than 10 MB of attachments. Our clients will not go-live if their clients cannot send in emails with attachments over 10 MBs
    Potential resolution - Configure MS exchange to strip off the attachments(if over 10 MB) and store it in a public folder, forward the email to Salesforce (so the case gets created or the email
    is associated to an existing case), the client should have some way to know if the attachments were stripped off and should be able to dlownload the attachments and continue with case resolution.
    Any help is appreicated!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    From your description, you want to achieve the following goal:
    Configure Exchange to filter the attachments if the size is over 10 MB and store it in a public folder, and then forward the email to Salesforce.
    Based on my knowledge, I'm afraid that it can't be achieved. Exchange can filter messages with attachments, but it couldn't store these attachments on public folder automatically. Also, I don't see any transport rule can do it.
    Hope my clarification is helpful.
    Best regards,

  • Creative in the dock over driver issues for older cards and upsetting consumers please read!

    To Who this may concern at TOP LEVEL AT Creative's Board It's come to my attention to a very serious issue From Creative,and the story starts from here.
    I have just required the Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card so looking to install the latest drivers from CREATIVE'S UK WEBSITE. So I look into the date which is 9/4/200 on Creative's website. However I did abit more investigating into the issues from other consumer's from passed half soaked drivers that Creative are supposed to put right with their half asleep development team(what a joke!!).
    AS I did more research? on this issue on the forums and hardware websites, it came across to my attention on a Brazilian I. T. Expert called Daniel Kawakami (surprisesurprise and I don't suppose Creative know anything about him other than trying to kick him the balls for his work to help others with their sound cards very good PR work Creative well done!!!!).So armed with all this information and believe me I have gone into alot of reading in the forums about the issues,and yes Creative Board Of Directors you are entitled to your Copy Rights,for now !!!
    So I find out more about this super hero Daniel Kawakami? to Creative's miss givings to put right the Drivers for Consumers let down by Creative, I came across one of the driver updates for the Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card done by Daniel Kawakami, and Bingo most consumer's now have a working drivers by him.
    So for all the hard work and precious time this Daniel Kawakami has done for Creative Consumers(including me) YOU SELFISH CREATIVE BOARD OF DIRECTOR'S go and kick him the face, so I will say this to you what about his rights as a creative product consumer? ,his driver copy rights and on top that his right to put things right that your team cannot put right in the first place. This is the EXACT PEOPLE WE NEED IN THIS HIGHLY COMPLICATED IT INDUSTRY, so what do you do you try and do, you bin him.
    So Creative I am going to ask some questions and I EXPECT YOU TO ANSWER THEM with me as a CONSUMER OF YOUR PRODUCTS(customer is King not you!!)
    1. The drivers you realised on the 9th April 200 are working drivers for the Audigy 2 zs for windows 7 ultimate.
    2. So how can you convince me that they are working?
    3. At the moment I can only trust Daniel Kawakami's? working drivers, since he has had over whelming praise for his work.What makes me think I can trust you with your drivers.
    4. Your Drivers came out on the 9/4/200, Daniel Kawakami's Drivers came out on 9/4/200 its too close a call,since your development Team are too lazy to put things right, how can you convince me that you did not copy his Drivers into your download Driver website(I would not be surprised if you did, as it would certainly be a cost cutting exercise ,and taking away his copy rights for all the work he has done for nothing!!!)
    5. Are you going to treat customer and consumers better service and support? in the Future,and that includes me,and 3rd party developers like Daniel Kawakami .
    The concussion to all of this, there are lessons to be learned by you Creative for your mis givings and the treatment of customers passed and present and especially the appalling treatment of Daniel Kawakami ,this guy deserves far better for his talent. I Have one message for the President Of Creative ,don't you EVER think you can scare me as a customer and also as Registered? disabled deaf person ,and for that reason I have far more powers you will ever have. For what I have read I am so angry and dismayed when someone like Daniel Kawakami is only trying help others ,but to be treated in this way.
    It is only right for me to post this ,because You Creative have hurt? alot people and that includes me. I look forward to the comments and p.m.(if I get any) And Daniel Kawakami? I hope you do read this and all the best for the future ,keep doing what you do ,and once again Creative you should be holding your heads in Shame.
    Regards Jonoace U.k.

    !!! Creative jamais vai responder.
    At seria justo se Creative viesse a publico falar de sua incapacidade e que at onde as placas Audigy funcionariam em Vista e ?7.
    Mas por?incompet?ncia, pois nem suas novas placas funcionam direito, se era para vender est? mal.
    Problemas de memoria superior a 4 gb e tantos outros que Creative no tem respostas;
    Drivers de Daniel e Pax so alternativas, mas que tambm tem muitas limitaes.
    Sinceramente acho que esta na hora de Creative vir a publico fazer um relato srio, e descrever claramente as limitaes de sua placas colocando um ponto final emexpectativas frustraes eeng dos.
    Chega a ser vergonhoso que placas onboard como realtek funcionem melhor que placas Creative;
    Realmente, antes era um sonho e orgulho possuir um produto CREATIVE, tornou-se um pesadelo e uma vergonha.
    Mas enfim o que fazer, apenas esperar um momento de honestidade por parte de Creative.
    Flavio Kern - Audigy 2 ZS
    Creative will never respond. So it would be fair if Creative would publish his inability to speak and that even where the plates Audigy would work in Vista and 7. But by incompetence, since neither her new adapter works right, if it was to sell is poorly. Problems of memory above 4 gb, and so many others that Creative does not have answers; Daniel and Pax Drivers are alternati'ves, but which also has many limitations. I honestly think this time Creative come publico do a serious story, and describe clearly the limitations of your cards by putting an end-point on expectations, frustrations and forgeries. It is shameful that onboard realtek cards like that boards Creative work better; Actually, before it was a dream and pride have a CREATIVE product, became a nightmare and a shame. But anyway what to do, just wait a moment of honesty from Creative.

  • Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

    Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

  • Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

    Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

    Thank you Alan and  know you are right. I really can do all I need with my netbook and ereader and do not need the ipad. I think I just wanted something new and felt I may enjoy using it a lttle more than the netook. But it would be a waste just to buy one when I donlt acutally need it  And, donl't think it is worth the extra money for me the get the 4g wireless capability since I doubt I would really need it often.
    I may treat myself to the Ipad for the color, touchpad and fun to use but it is very expensive considering how little it will do for me no more than the things I want it for. It woudl be and expensive luxuray, I can do without. I actually  need t learn how to use more of the function avaiable first.  Maybe I should take up playing games and learning to take digital pictures so I can at least load them. If I could learn to do that and take a decent picture, I could start selling back all the "stuff" I have purchased on ebay. haha - I do have a nice doll collection, I would like to sell. I just do not have room for anything else. That was the primary purpose for the Kindle Ereader I bought and enjoy so much,
    But, I will hold onto the thought for a while and see how it goes and what other comments I get, If I think I cannot live without it, then I will have to rethink which one to buy, I coud get the 32 g if I did not have to pay for the 4g wireless. And, if I knew I could get help to teach me how to use and enjoy all the functions, I would give it more serious consideration. My granddaugther got one for Christmas and that was what got me interested in it. I love the size of the screen and it had good color and was fast. She even had an application where she could write her notes and it would convert into typed words. That was a neat feature, If you could print it?
    But thanks again for your comments and I will check later to see I get any other feedback.
    Sunny:)

  • Aperture shared over a network for viewing with Front Row?

    Aperture shared over a network for viewing with Front Row? I can view iPhoto from my laptop or desk top but I cannot find a way to share Aperture over the network.

    If tested to work with other MacOs versions, this should be a main FAQ listed on Apple's Support website for Aperture and/Mac OSX.

  • Working in illustrator the page just shifts over or up for no apparent reason

    When I'm working in illustrator the page just shifts over or up for no apparent reason. It goes up, down to the left or right when
    I'm in the middle of working. I've been on the phone with the geek squad and they are not helpful at all.  Has this ever happened to anyone?
    Any idea why and how I can make it stop. It's so annoying and driving me crazy. Please advise it's beyond annoying.  Thanks!

    I think this has been brought up here a couple of times and IIRC always had sth. to do with a graphic tablet. Do you have one? And of course the usual stuff: system version, Illustrator version etc.

  • Can anyone beat this? now waited over 9 months for...

    Can anyone beat this? now waited over 9 months for BT to fix my BB

    I have thanks, I was just answering 06jpearce
    This is what I wrote:
    Over 9 months and 20 openreach appointments and my broadband is still not fixed.   They have tried the "put up with it or we will just say your line is too long and we will stop all broadband service" about 3 times now, but when I point-out my next door neighbour is with TalkTalk, and their BB is fine, and also point out I've had much faster BB for years, they back down.
    My speed has gone from 2Mbps to 384Kbps, and every time the phone rings the broadband disconnects.
    I am an IT engineer that works from home and about 5 times a day I have to tell my customers that my BB has dropped out and then I explain that I've been waiting 9 months for BT to fix it.
    Also I used to set up my customers on BT Broadband but obviously I haven't been doing that for the last 9 months. 
    I'm sure that the fault is in the old aluminium cable that Openreach don't want to touch (in fact that is what the last engineer told me) .
    When you add up the cost of all these engineers calls, and the loss of business from the bad name you are getting, it would have been far cheaper to replace the cable.
