Differences between the current base station, and previous gen

Besides the 802.11n, what are the features that Apple added to the current gen AirPort Extreme Base Station from the 802.11g (UFO style) ones? I ask because I'm looking to replace my router, and being a poor college kid, if the new one doesn't offer enough, I'm just going to get a an older one used.
I don't particularly need the 802.11n, as I don't have any devices that can take advantage of the technology. Thanks for your help! I hope to give some points soon.

Time Capsule is the only Apple-supported TM backup to a NAS.
Time Machine backups to AirDisks (e.g. USB HDD attached to Extreme) is unsupported, but has been successful by some. As well, once you decide to move any old TM backups (HDD connected directly to the Mac) to an AirDisk, you cannot continue backing up to your previous TM backup. The format it saves to vs. a local HDD is different. The folder structure you see becomes a sparsebundle/disk image via the AirDisk.

    This should mean a fairly significant increase in range with the new model.  I would imagine these changes would be consistent with the Time Capsule as well.

  • Difference between SAP-CRM 2007 UI and previous version UI.

    hi,
    anyone knows the differences difference between SAP-CRM 2007 UI and previous version UI.
    anykind of links or files are helpful.
    regards.
    raman.

    Hi,
    actually quite a late response and I think all the rather technically focuses comments have already been given, incl. the link to a really good slide deck, that explains all the technical architecture details on what exactly we did.
    From an end user perspective some other statements on what we did:
    (1) From an information architecture and visualization perspective we acted based on feedback from our customers in the last years, which led to some restructuring of the screen, e.g. moving the navigation bar from the top area of the screen (horizontal) to the left hand side --> sounds simple but users tend to have problem seeing thing at the top of the screen. We also decided to arrange the information for e.g. an account or an opportunity not in a tab oriented format. Again usability tests in CRM had shown that users often find it hard to see and understand that tabs contain additional information. We now show the details in assignment blocks below the header information in a scrollable format. Vertical scrolling is a behavior of a screen that most users know from their internet experience. Those are just two exampels of what we did in this area
    (2) We also have put a large focus on well known web behaviors, like drag & drop and personalization in general, knowing that on the one hand side, no matter what standard UI we deliver, users tend to adapt it exactly based on their needs and wishes. So you will find really easy to understand personalization options everywhere in the new CRM Web Client UI. To achieve this we used lots of web 2.0 techologies that enable especially these easy interactive capabilitites.
    (3) Finally, and this relates directly to the arguments mentioned in (2) we focused as well on really easy UI configuration. Again, in every customer project user interface changes are made, to adapt the SAP default to the customers needs. here we invested a lot to make the 60-80% most common UI changes done in projects as easy as possible, that even non-technical people can generally do it (like Power users).
    Hope this clarifies some arguments what from the users point of view has been done and what the advantages are.
    When you follow the same link as mentioned by Nadine above, you can also find a presentation UI Concept, which explains all the details rather from a users perspective.
    Best regards and enjoy the new UI ..and every feedback is very much welcome, only with your feedback we can improve the solution even more.

  • Is there a difference between the Ethernet WAN port and the other 3 Ethernet Ports on a Time Capsule?

    As posted previously, my time capsule will not set up properly because I get an IP address conflict pop up window.  Is there a difference between the "Ethernet WAN Port" and the other three ports on the back of the Time Capsule?  I may have the DSL modem hooked into the "Ethernet WAN Port".  Thanks.

    it depends what you want to achieve and what configuration you have on your DSL modem/router.

  • Differences Between The Asus P67 EVO And Pro?

    Anyone know of the differences between the Asus P67 EVO and the Pro?
    I want to buy an Asus P67 Pro Motherboard today, but there are only 2 left at Fry's and they are both open-box returns and the other Fry's has only 6 left and ALL are open-box returns.  So I'm thinking there may be an issue with the Pro's?
    Is the EVO just as good?
    On the Asus site specs, it seems the only differences are:
    (and I'm not sure what any of the following means)
    -On the Pro, the PCIe x16-3 slot shares bandwidth with the ESATA12
    -On the EVO, the PCIe x16-3 slot shares bandwidth with the ESATA3G and the PESATA3G
    -The EVO has dual LAN's
    -The EVO has a CMOS Switch
    -The Pro has the "System Panel" Q-Connector
    Adobe seems to be heading towards allowing 2 video cards.
    Would the EVO limit me if this happens?
    I notice there's only one EVO on the PPBM5 site in the upper realms (Novak). 
    There seems to be more Pro's.
    I don't plan on doing huge overclocking, maybe minor.
    Components to be used:
    -i7 2600K
    -Corsair Vengeance 16GB
    -Corsair AX 850 Watt Gold
    -EVGA GTX 460 1GB Superclocked
    -OCZ Agility 3 SSD 120GB
    -Seagate Barracuda 3GB Storage
    -Seagate Barracuda 1GB for Exports, Page File, Previews, Media Cache
    -Seagate Barracuda 3GB Storage in  Acomdata Samba External Enclosure for Backup
    -WD My Book 3GB External for Another Backup
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks Guys.

  • What is the difference between the 4th generation ipad and the ipad 3 with retnia display?

    What is the difference between the 4th generation iPad and the "New iPad with retina display"? i don't quite understand. are they stilll the same size or would i have to get a different case?

    The 3rd and 4th generation iPads are the same size. The 4 has a faster processor, and a little better iSight camera for FaceTime. The 4 also has the lightning connector so your old cable will not work with the iPad 4.
    You should always check with the manufacturer of the case to see if it will fit. You can probably do that on the manufacturers website.
    This might be of some interest to you.

  • What is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function

    hi,
    what is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function module.

    Hi
    BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
    A BAPI is remotely enabled function module ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
    You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
    A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access. Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
    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.
