Does anyone know which will be faster, an i5 2.5 ghz with a cheap ssd and 8gb ram or a standard i7 2.3 ghz
Does anyone know which will be faster, i will be using it mostly for garageband and tv/movies and occasionally games.
Any responses appreciated
James
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Get the Mac Mini with the faster Processor, then upgrade the RAM and maybe even SSD yourself.

I am considering an IPhone5 which I want to "tether" to my laptop and Ipad. Does anyone know which network works best. TMobile tell me that they will only tether upto 1GB of data, will this be sufficient?
I have the AT&T family plan for use with my laptop, iPhone an iPad with 6GB per month. I tend to use the tethering far more often with the MacBook Pro than the iPad (mine has cellular) and I don't think I've had any month where 1 GB would have been sufficient for tethering. Do they have a plan where they will let you pay for additional tethering? If so I would go to at last 2 GB.
Or look into AT&T. -
Hi I am building a website using iWeb's white template. I can't write HTML, so can't change the index, but would like to repeat it at the bottom of my pages. Does anyone know which typeface Apple used? Presumably it would be 'web friendly' for use as described above?
Arial
PS. You can see it in the source of the published page where it says new NavBar etc...

does anyone know when will iphone 6 be avalaible in stores for pick up?
Probably once demand has died down a bit.
Best thing to do would be to contact the store you wish to buy from and see if they have any information for you.

Does anyone know which software can remove a logo from a video as well as subtitle in it. Thanks
Watermarking like this cannot be easily removed (which is the entire point of including a watermark). You would probably have to go through the video frame by frame, editing out the watermark and subtitles by hand, and then it would take a lot of work to try and reconstruct the background to not just leave a blank spot. It's not worth the effort unless you wanted to use such a video professionally, and then you would need a licence after obtaining of which you probably could obtain the original footage without the watermark.
If you really want to explore this, though, see:

Does anyone know which companies use VirtualBox for Product QA testing?
Hi guys,
I am doing Software QA testing and currently looking into using virtualization tool.
Does anyone know which companies use VirtualBox for Product QA testing?
I know there are alot of companies using VMWare, but have never heard of any using VirtualBox?
Help me out with the list. Does Oracle ever use their own VirtualBox for testing their own range of products?Well, Oracle uses internally more & more VirtualBox and we see more & more companies using VB instead of VMWare.
Very similar, maybe VB better in memory management

Does anyone know which font this is?
Does anyone know which font the word Compton is written in?
A good site to help you identify fonts is: www.whatthefont.com
You'll have to cut the font you want it to check out so that it's in an image by itself.

Does anyone know how to display (in LabVIEW) the memory use during execution of an image and data acquisition VI to predict when it is time to cease the acquisition to prevent the program crashing?
I am acquiring images and data to a buffer on the edge of the while loop, and am finding that the crashing of the program is unpredictable, but almost always due to a memory saturation when the buffers gets too big.
I have attached the VI.
Thanks for the help

Yes, but it is absolutely critical to delete all existing preferences after upgrading to 10.9.

Hi.
Does anyone know ifs it possible to play Spotify on the IPhone through both Airport Express and Apple TV?
Whenever I click either/or it just changes the speakers rather play through both?
Cheersto transfer audio to an airport express the device needs to support airplay unless your samsung tv's manual clearly state it does support it then it don't
appletv can't get audio input into it the optical connector is output only same with the hdmi port -
ok, so i bought a imac 27 about 4 months ago, and now they release a new one! ****... So my question is, should I sell this one (which by the way is the i5 2.8 with 1 gb 5750 and 4gb ram) and buy the new imac 27 i5,or keep the one i have and buy more ram. I mostly use my computer for photoshop cs5 and illustrator cs5 for graphics out put as well as surfing the web and music.
Please give me you thoughts on what I should do!! Thanks lot!The new iMac is about 25% or so faster than your current iMac(comparable model would be the 3.1ghz version). There are a couple of things that you will benefit from such as the dual Thunderbolt/Mini Display ports/ which may help with multitasking. The video card in the new iMac again the comparable model being the 3.1ghz is a lotttttttt better than the current one that you have. So thinking of the long run those few things may be beneficial for you to upgrade(but it depends on what is important to you).
I had the 2.93ghz i7 version that I just bought in March this year and I turned around and sold it about a week before the new iMac's were announced. I got about $1600 for it, yeah I took a loss but to me it was worth it because my new iMac performs that much better. Now keep in mind I went from i7 to i7...3.4ghz i7 with the 2gb video card. Now I have dual thuderbolt/mini display ports. I have noticed significant gains in my video editing and also in my gaming. So to me it was definitely worth the upgrade!
One last thing, I would not have sold my 2.93 i7 and then bought the 3.1ghz i5, the big reason is because HT(hyper threading), it's only on the i7 model(3.4ghz)... If you take a look at some of the bench marks on engadget, maclife, macrumors, macworld, ****Barefeats.com(they really get into benchmarking)*** you will see charts that will help you make a better decision.
In closing I would say look into it, if you can get a good price out of your current iMac to put toward a new iMac then do it. Like others have mentioned to you, tech changes and Apple will change the tech in these machines next year or do a speed bump later this year or so. One last thing if you go from the 2.8 i5 up to the 3.4 i7, you would definitely see the difference (HT is a must especially for programs that utilize it. You can go to my youtube channel(mob1278) and take a look at my geekbench results.... my 2.93 i7 scored around 10500-11000(8gb ram)...my 3.4 i7 scores from 12700-13000 with 4gb ram....so yeah as you can see big difference. Basically the 3.4 i7 would perform similar or just under a 2.4ghz 8core 2010 Mac Pro which runs you about $3500 with no monitor.... it's your money spend it how you want....and Lion is only going to push it even more when it is released!
