Garage Band for ISO vs. Mac Air - what are the differences?

My husband and I are trying to decide whether to purchase an Ipad 2 or a Mac Air for our daughter who wants Garage Band. She's a fairly good pianist and likes to compose. Money is an issue - so we are wondering if Garage Band on the IPAD 2 has the same functionality as on a MAC Book Air.

Though they share the same name and general screen appearance, there are differences in functionality and connectivity.
The big difference is the iOS (iPad, iPod Touch & iPhone version) has a touch sensitive screen with what are called Smart Instruments that go a fair way to meeting the needs of the creative musician. A Midi controller keyboard ( ie M-Audio 49key) can be attached via a powered USB hub and a Camera Connector Kit. This gives a pianist a familiar playing interface. Kids absolutely love GarageBand on both the mac and iOS platforms and like ease of use.
Listen to this example of what can be achieved with just the iPad:

That said, the MacBook Air and GB has more instruments, loops and edting funtionality.
Hope that helps.

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

The NEW macbook Pro and Air are EXTREMELY close in form factor
The newest macbook Pro is essentially a larger macbook Air with Retina display and options for speed in increasing prices up to an independent graphics and quad core processor.
both Air and new Pro now have PCIe SSD and permanent RAM.
The Air is the lightweight portable form factor, fast to boot and shut down, but with longer battery life than any of the macbook pro in 13"
Now the new macbook Pro and macbook Air are extremely close in form factor and nature.
both have 802ac wifi
both have permanent RAM, no superdrive
both are slim profiles and SSD
The only real differences now are (in the most expensive Pros) faster processors and quadcore processors and top end model autonomous graphics.
....and of course the retina display
both are now "very good for travel"
Other than features the form factor of the Air and Pro are VERY close now,....so now its merely a matter of features and price more than anything.
You need an external HD regardless of what you get for backups etc. Drop into an Apple store and handle both and make your choice based on features, such as Retina or non-retina, .... both at a distance now look like the same computer.
The Pro weighs more, ....but nowhere near what it used to just a month ago on the older macbook Pros
The NEW macbook Pro is a different creature entirely than the older macbook Pro, .....the new Pro is thicker than the Air, but id frankly call the NEWEST Pro a "macbook Air with Retina display" , or
Maybe a “macbook Air PRO with Retina display”
Instead of Air VS Pro now,.....its really a smooth transition from Air to pro without comparing say, 2 different creatures, now its like contrasting a horse from a race horse.
Either one in 8gig of RAM (preferably)... the 4gig upgrade costs very little, the I7 you will notice only 15% faster on heavy applications over the I5, and NOTHING on most APPS.....I5 has longer battery life.
As you see below, the non-Retina 13" AIR is 82% of the Macbook with Retina display in resolution
there is no magical number of pixels per inch that automatically equates to Retina quality.
http://www.cultofmac.com/168509/why-you-might-be-disappointed-by-the-resolution- of-those-new-retina-display-macs-feature/
A huge internal SSD isnt a game changer for anything, you need an external HD anyway
what you WONT READ on Apple.com etc. is that the larger SSD are MUCH FASTER due to SSD density
"The 512GB Samsung SSD found in our 13-inch model offers roughly a 400MB/s increase in write speeds over the 128GB SanDisk/Marvell SSD"

What are the differences between the Apple 64GB iPad Air with Retina Display and the Apple 64 iPad with Retina Display MD512LL/A 4th Generation

what are the differences between the Apple 64GB iPad Air with Retina Display and the Apple 64 iPad with Retina Display MD512LL/A 4th Generation ?

The iPad with retina display only comes in the 16GB version and it has the A6 processor which is a step down from the Air model. Having said that, I stream movies on my iPad 3 with retina and it has the A5 processor and the movies stream just fine as does everything else that I do on the internet.
If 16GB is enough storage for you, the $100 savings compared to an iPad Air model is a fair amount of money and that might sway me if I was just worried about saving some money. However, that's not my style. I always go for the largest capacity that I can afford and the faster processor if I have the choice.
Having said that, if it were me, I would select the 32 GB iPad Air. But in spite of the information that you provided in which you want to base your decision, only you can be the judge of what will be best for you, and remember that you cannot add storage capacity to the decide later. You can purchase external WiFi drives if you need the storage, but to me, that takes away from having the really small footprint and portability of only having to carry the iPad around gives you.

What are the differences between Turn in Final Timesheet and the other option: Send Progress for Selected Tasks?

Hello,
The resource filled his/her timesheet in PWA.
Now :
What are the differences between Turn in Final Timesheet
and the other option: Send Progress for Selected Tasks?
Thanks

You are partially correct and partially wrong.
Turn
in Final Timesheet sends
the timesheet to the Timesheet Manager for Approval
but task update always goes to Status manger of the task. Taks manager you can see in MPP(insert status manager field then check)
Yes
after approval progress will be available in MPP as well as in Projectweb app as % complete .
Send
Progress for Selected Tasks
Send progress of selected task to status manager after approval update will be available in both MPP and Projectweb
app as % complete.
In Send
Progress for Selected Tasks Timesheet
Manager doesn't receive anything in his Approval center
because all the update directly go to Status manager Approval center.
Here you have to understand
that there are two role Timesheet Manager(for timesheet approval) and Status manager(for task
actual approval)

Hi Experts,
What are the differences between ECC5.0 and 6.0 new GL functionality.
If we want to implement IFRS, I think New GL functionality is very helpful, but why sap is recommending only for ECC6.0 new GL functionality, Eventhough this functionality is available in ECC5.0.
Best Regards,

There are many jre exe files: what are the differences and which I choose?

Having some problems, that I will describe in another message, I was looking for the latest jre.
I saw that on www.java.com there is 6 update 1, whereas on www.sun.com there is already 6 update 2. So, I would like to know when an update is made available on www.java.com and through automatic updates?
Also, I saw different names, and I would like to understand in an exact way what are the differences:
jre-6-windows-i586.exe;
jre-6-windows-i586-iftw.exe;
jre-6u1-windows-i586-p-s.exe;
jre-6u1-windows-i586-p-iftw.exe;
jre-6u2-windows-i586-p.exe;
jre-6u2-windows-i586-p-iftw.exe;
I understand that te iftw part means the it is a small download, only the setup module. But why there are some files that end with "-p", some with "-p-s", sm with "-i586"?
Thank You

The question mark icon on the dlls indicates that LabVIEW is unsure of
the location of the DLL, or is unable to locate the DLL on your
system. This can happen if the DLLs do not exist, or if the "Call
Library Function Node" just specifies the name of the dll, and not the
entire path to the dll. IVI and Instrument driver VIs will
typically not supply the entire path to the DLL, whch would cause the
question mark icon to appear.
If your application is working properly, then you should ignore the
question mark in the dependencies list. If your application is
broken because the DLLs cannot be found, they are installed with the
following drivers:
ivi.dll is installed with the IVI compliance package, which is available at the following link:
Drivers and Updates: IVI Compliance Package
You should also install the latest version of NI-VISA, which is required by the IVI Compliance Package:
Drivers and Updates: NI-VISA
ag3325b_32.dll is installed with the your instrument's IVI driver, which can be found below:

What are the differences between iPod 2nd and 3rd Generation models?

Hi:
I have a couple questions about the differences between some of the iPod Touch models:
1) What is the difference between the *2nd Gen 8GB iPod touch* and the *3rd Gen 8GB iPod touch?*
2) What are the differences among the *3rd Gen iPod Touch 8GB* model and the *32 GB and 64 GB models* (other than the memory differences)?
Thanks!

none, really.
2) What are the differences among the *3rd Gen iPod Touch 8GB* model and the *32 GB and 64 GB models* (other than the memory differences)?
the 32 & 64 GB models have advanced hardware components. 32GB and 64GB Touches gain 3GS specs - roughly 2x faster, with more advanced 3D graphics for games that capitalize on OpenGL 2.0 - and features like Voice Control.

What are the differences between ESB 10g and OSB 10g

Hi,
I'm newbie to OSB 10g. I have installed OSB 10g.
I came to know after Oracle acquired BEA, the ALSB is renamed as OSB.
I'm curious to know what are the differences between ESB and OSB.
If there are many differences, please post any links which provide the required information in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Udaya

the 'old' esb has been renamed to mediator and is now only used as component in your sca application.
the two service buses can't really be compared since the osb (former alsb) has way more functionality in it.
Oracle gave it it's own place in his soa portfolio and the old esb can only be used als mediator in your sca application.
On top of your sca application you could use the OSB to complete your architecture design.
the difference between both.
esb (now used as mediator) can only be used in your sca application
in here you will use it mostly for routing/transformation, and there is some functionality for assign/java callouts conditional routing
the osb is complete product with a lot of functionality in it. Everything you used the old 'esb' for can be done in the OSB and with a lot of extra's.
routing/transformation/service call outs/java callouts/transport virtualization/security/and more and more
you should read the guides of the OSB to get an idea of everything it can do for you.

What are the differences between Logos and LogosXT?

What are the differences between Logos and LogosXT?

Logos XT is a networking middle-layer maintained by the LabVIEW Network Technologies and Security group. Logos XT provides a thin layer on top of TCP/IP to simplify some common network tasks.
The underlying foundation for NI networking is called Logos.
I believe that the basic idea is Logos is what is going on behind the scenes at the base level and Logos XT lets you build your own networking protocols on top of Logos. Logos XT would be used if you want to make your own networking protocol instead of using TCP/IP or UDP.
