Best deal for RAM ?

Hi Mac Gurus. It's time to replace my 466SE Clamshell so I'm looking to Buy new MacBook .
As Mac user from '99 I know how important is ram for Mac to work flawlessly. Any idea wich internet store has best deals on MacBook RAM.
Thanks.
Dan.

I recommend OWC also, but for RAM they are a bit higher than others that are known to work.
I use Patriot from New Egg in both my first gen G5 iMac and my BlackBook and I have never had a RAM related error.
G.SKILL is another "known good" brand with many Mac users.

What is the best deal for iPhone 5s for my 13yr daughter upgrade from blackberry

I am looking for the best deal for myself and my 13 yr daughter to upgrade . She would like a iPhone 5s and I would like a iPhone 6 ,

My first thought would be to get you and your daughter a shared EE plan.
That way you have full control over your daughters plan with the ability to prevent her from buying more data etc. You would both get your own calls and text allowances, but you share just 1 data allowance between your handsets.
you would get just 1 bill a month as well with a shared EE plan.
The easiest way to buy shared plans is to either ring EE are call into your nearest EE store.

Best deal for Non-Retina Macbook Pro?

I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro (Non-Retina) in the next month or two, and I've narrowed it down to these three options.

Which one of these pages offers me the best bang for my buck? I currently am using a Sony that's about a year old. It has 8 GB of RAM, an I5 2410M at 2.30 GHz, and Intel HD Graphics 3000, It's a 14.4 inch screen. I use it for gaming, watching and streaming movies, word processing and productivity, and internet browsing. I'd prefer to have 8GB of RAM in the new computer.

OK. It was just that the one you had seemed like a decent machine already.
The prices seem so close that I would be inclined to go with the refurb i7 / 8GB RAM / 750GB storage model. But all the models have more CPU and disk space than you need for the tasks you listed, except maybe gaming where Macs are usually weak because of the graphics card. But I guess since you had an Intel 3000 graphics card the 4000 isn't a step back.
You can also save money by getting one of the 4GB RAM models and putting in a cheap non-Apple RAM upgrade yourself, ordering it from a place like OWC:
MacBook Pro 2012 upgrades
One note about Apple. I wouldn't buy refurbs from most companies, but the Apple refurb program is top-notch. They are like new, and come with a full warranty. I've had Apple refurbs that were 100% reliable, and "new" models I paid full price for that needed warranty service.

Best place for RAM?

Hi guys I was wondering where the best place to buy 2x 2gb ram sticks for my new mac book pro. I have seen some sites and was wondering why it was so cheap. Like I say some for 45 dollars. Thank you in advance for your time.

*Other World Computing:* _http://www.macsales.com_
I have purchased RAM from them for four different Macs and it always been cheap and performed flawlessly. You can get 2x2GB for less than a hundred dollars -- I just did it last week.

Best Solution for RAM issues

I am video/audio editing with ProTools 11 and my Macbook Pro says I am using too much RAM. Whats the best solution? Is there a way to clean out, delete, store things so I don't have to purchase anything except maybe an external hard drive?

Have less applications running at the same time.
Reboot more frequently.

Best Configuration For RAM Upgrade?

Hi, I purchased an additional 4GB (2x2GB) of RAM to go into my Mac Pro. I was wondering which Riser should I add the two sticks to, in the remaining 2 on Riser A, or the first two on Riser B? Also if I put them on Riser A, should I move the two sticks of 512 to slots 3/4 an put the 2GB sticks in 1/2?

Put them in the back two slots on Riser B (below the two installed in Riser A.)

What's best strategy for dealing with 40+ hours of footage

We have been editing a documentary with 45+ hours of footage and presently have captured roughly 230 gb. Needless to say it's a lot of files. What's the best strategy for dealing with so much captured footage? It's almost impossible to remember it all and labeling it while logging it seems inadequate as it difficult to actually read comments in dozens and dozens of folders.
Just looking for suggestions on how to deal with this problem for this and future projects.
G5 Dual Core 2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 2.5 g ram, 2 internal sata 2 250gb

Ditto, ditto, ditto on all of the previous posts. I've done four long form documentaries.
First I listen to all the the sound bytes and digitize only the ones that I think I will need. I will take in much more than I use, but I like to transcribe bytes from the non-linear timeline. It's easier for me.
I had so many interviews in the last doc that I gave each interviewee a bin. You must decide how you want to organize the sound bytes. Do you want a bin for each interviewee or do you want to do it by subject. That will depend on you documentary and subject matter.
I then have b-roll bins. Sometime I base them on location and sometimes I base them on subject matter. This last time I based them on location because I would have a good idea of what was in each bin by remembering where and when it was shot.
Perhaps, you weren't at the shoot and do not have this advantage. It's crucial that you organize you b-roll bins in a way that makes sense to you.
I then have music bins and bins for my voice over.
Many folks recommend that you work in small sequences and nest. This is a good idea for long form stuff. That way you don't get lost in the timeline.
I also make a "used" bin. Once I've used a shot I pull it out of the bin and put it "away" That keeps me from repeatedly looking at footage that I've already used.
The previous posts are right. If you've digitized 45 hours of footage you've put in too much. It's time to start deleting some media. Remember that when you hit the edit suite, you should be one the downhill slide. You should have a script and a clear idea of where you're going.
I don't have enough fingers to count the number of times that I've had producers walk into my edit suite with a bunch of raw tape and tell me that that "want to make something cool." They generally have no idea where they're going and end up wondering why the process is so hard.
Refine your story and base your clip selections on that story.
Good luck

I am considering a base 21" iMac ($1099 @ Best Buy) for home use. It would be my first Mac. Is the base model powerful enough for everyday home use and some light video editing or should I upgrade the CPU, Ram and to a Fusion drive?

Purchasing with the upgrades through Apple would add about $800 over the Black Friday deal at Best Buy. Just looking for some advice if I will be satisfied with the based model.

All models will do what you want. Upgraded models will do it faster than the standard models.
Just why are you thinking of switching to a Mac?

What is best practice for dealing with Engineering Spare Parts?

Hello All,
I am after some advice regarding the process for handling engineering spare parts in PM. (We run ECC 5)
Our current process is as follows:
All materials are set up as HIBE's
Each material is batch managed
The Batch field is used for the Bin location
We are now looking to role out PM to a site that has in excess of 50,000 spare parts and want to make sure we use best practice for handling the spare parts. We are now considering using a basic WM setup to handle the movement of parts.
Please can you provide me with some feedback on what you feel the best practice is for dealing with these parts?
We are looking to set up a solution that will us to generate pick lists etc and implment a scanning solution to move parts in and out of stores.
Regards
Chris

Hi,
I hope all the 50000 spare parts are maintained as stock items.
1. Based on the usage of those spare parts, try to define safety stock & define MRP as "Reorder Point Planning". By this, you can avoid petty cash purchase.
2. By keeping the spare parts (atleast critical components) in stock, Planned Maintenance as well as unplanned maintenance will not get delayed.
3. By doing GI based on reservation, qty can be tracked against the order & equipment.
As this question is MM & WM related, they can give better clarity on this.
Regards,
Maheswaran.

Best practice for dealing with Recordsets

Hi all,
I'm wondering what is best practice for dealing with data retrieved via JDBC as Recordsets without involving third part products such as Hibernate etc. I've been told to NOT use RecordSets throughout in my applications since they are taking up resources and are expensive. I'm wondering which collection type is best to convert RecordSets into. The apps I'm building are webbased using JSPs as presentation layer, beans and servlets.
Many thanks
Erik

There is no requirement that DAO's have a direct mapping to Database Tables. One of the advantages of the DAO pattern is that the business layer isn't directly aware of the persistence layer. If the joined data is used in the business code as if it were an unnormalized table, then you might want to provide a DAO for the joined data. If the joined data provides a subsiduray object within some particular object, you might add the access method to the DAO for the outer object.
eg:
In a user permissioning system where:
1 user has many userRoles
1 role has many userRoles
1 role has many rolePermissions
1 permission has many rolePermissions
ie. there is a many to many relationship between users and roles, and between roles and permissions.
The administrator needs to be able to add and delete permissions for roles and roles for users, so the crud for the rolePermissions table is probably most useful in the RoleDAO, and the crud for the userRoles table in the UserDAO. DOA's also can call each other.
During operation the system needs to be able to get all permissions for a user at login, so the UserDAO should provide a readPermissions method that does a rather complex join across the user, userRole, rolePermission and permission tables..
Note that f the system I just described were done with LDAP, a Hierarchical database or an Object database, the userRoles and rolePermissions tables wouldn't even exist, these are RDBMS artifacts since relational databases don't understand many to many relationships. This is good reason to avoid providing DAO's that give access to those tables.

I have just got a mini ipad and I am looking for best deal on a pay as you go basis, ideally useage up to 90 days

I have just purchased a mini ipad and am looking for a pay as you go connection, not a contract and would like something for up to 90 days. Can anyone advise me which is the best deal. I live in Falmouth Cornwall UK and some services are limited. I can get Three where I am and it seems I can get 3 Gbs for about £20 which lasts 90 days and I think I can get O2 for 90days, that is 5 Gbs for I think about £30. - though it seems that the coverage may not be great. Can anyone suggest any better deals or have any ideas please

The Everything Packs only include UK calls, text & data. So if you have no credit you won't be able to use it abroad. Once you top up you will be able to call & text from abroad, but no data for which you will need a Euro add-on.

Best choice for new RAM on nForce SLI Platinum

Quote from: dmostert on 06-April-05, 17:39:39
OK,
So it would then seem that going for the tighter PC3200 RAM is better that going for the more relaxed PC4000 RAM
It would also seem that the Corsair is a slightly better buy than the Kingston In general, which overclocks better Corsair or Kingston?
Thanks,
D.
Kingstone have a reputation for producing faster compatible memory to replace that found in HP, compaq's etc. Corsair do have a reputation for producing memory for overlockers. Note that dosn't mean memory which overlclocks, it means memory which overlockers can use to push the FSB harder and overlock the CPU.
This is really not a problem for AMD64 users. P4 systems have a poor memory peroformance, and hate running asych. You can push an AMD64 by running the memory asynch without noticing from my expericnace testing my system.
My current system is running at 305 FSB, 1/180 devisor for 275mhz. Everest benchmarks my latency at 43ns, read speed 7300mb/s, write speed 2800mb/s.

Question: Best practices for dealing with multiple AM configurations

Hello all,
I have a project using ADF Business Components and ADF Faces. I would like to set up multiple configurations for the Application Modules to support the following scenarios:
1). Local testing and debugging - using a connection defined in JDeveloper and AM Pooling turned off.
2). Testing and debugging on an application server - using a JDBC Data Source and AM Pooling turned off
3). Production deployment - using a JDBC Data Source and AM Pooling turned on.
It is no problem to create multiple AM configurations to reflect this scenario. In order for the web part of the application to use the correct configurations, the DataBindings.cpx file must specify the correct ones. I was thinking to have 3 different DataBindings.cpx files and to change the CpxFileName context-param in the web.xml file as needed.
My questions:
1). Does this make sense as an approach? It should be better than having to change a single AM configuration every time I deploy or test. Is there any easy way to keep multiple DataBIndings.cpx files in synch, given that we may add new pages from time-to-time? Alternatively, can we do some type of "include" processing to include just the dataControlUsages section into a common DataBindings.cpx file?
2). How would you manage the build-and-deploy process? For the most part, in JDev we would be using configuration #1. The only time to switch to configuration #2 or #3 would be to build an EAR file for deployment. Is this something that it would make sense to accomplish with ANT? I'm not an ANT expert at all. The ANT script would have "build-test-ear" and "build-prod_ear" targets which would swap in a correct web.xml file, recompile everything, build the EAR, then put the development web.xml file back. I'm relatively sure this is possible... comments?
3). Is there some other recommended approach?
I appreciate any insights from experience, or even just ideas or thoughts that I can test out.
Best regards,
John

Hi K,
Sorry for the long long delay in responding I've been traveling - and thanks for the e-mail tickler too...
To answer your question in short, I do think that ANT is the right way to go; there is an extra ANT task called XMLTask that I was able to download and play with, and it seems it would make this manipulation of the cpx file (or the xcfg file, for that matter) pretty straightforward. I don't have any code to post; it's just in the conceptual stage for me right now. I didn't see anything magical in JDev 11 TP3 that solved this problem for me either.
Having said all of that, it's more complicated than it might appear. In addition to the DataBindings.cpx file (stores, among other things, which AM configuration to use for each data control), it's certainly possible to programmatically access an AM (specifying the configuration either directly in the code or via a properties file/etc). I'm not sure what the most common use case for AM configurations is, but in my case, I have a Test configuration and a Prod configuration. The Test config, among other things, disables AM pooling. When I am developing/testing, I always use the Test config; in Production, I always use the Prod config. Perhaps the best way for me to do this would be to have an "Active" config and use ANT tasks to copy either Test or Prod to "Active." However, our Subversion repository is going to have a few complaints about this.

Best practices for dealing with Exceptions on storage members

We recently encountered an issue where one of our DistributedCaches was terminating itself and restarting due to an RuntimeException being thrown from our code (see below). As usual, the issue was in our own code and we have updated it to not throw a RuntimeException under any circumstances.
I would like to know if there are any best practices for Exception handling, other than catching Exceptions and logging them. Should we always trap Exceptions and ensure that they do not bubble back up to code that is running from the Coherence jar? Is there a way to configure Coherence so that our DistributedCaches do not terminate even when custom Filters and such throw RuntimeExceptions?
thanks, Aidan
