Help me...does this look good?!?!?

Hey all,
I want a G4 to use in my music studio, have found one on ebay, does this look good to you...
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8792713494&rd=1&sspagename= STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1
If you can't access that, basically it's this...
Computer is in excellent condition, has been well loved and well upgraded:- 200GB hard disk (5400rpm) Dual 867 MHz, 1MB L3 cache per processor 1.25GB DDR SDRAM 16x DVD+/- RW (Superdrive) 4x DVD+ RW (original Superdrive) 4x USB 2.0 ports 2x USB 1.0 ports 2x Firewire ports Airport Card (WiFi) Ethernet Card 56kbps Modem Digital in/out for audio Again it is in excellent condition, well loved.
Oh and there is still 2 slots left for memory upgrade and 4 other slots for your other upgrades, i.e. more firewire, usb, graphics card, music adaptors etc. I used the machine mostly for video editing and graphic design and it handles everything I throw at it. It is a beast of a computer but sadly by job entails I have a laptop now I will also include all the software that comes with it.
Think it sounds good? What price do you reckon???
Thank you!

G4 I hope    

If you do decide to bid I'd keep in mind that it's the base model MDD G4 with a 133MHz system bus (the others had 167MHz). It's also one of the original models that got the nickname of wind tunnel as they could be fairly noisy, so much so that Apple under went a power supply replacement program using quieter fans, which may be an issue if it's intended for audio use. I'm not sure whether it's had the power supply replaced, but Verax also offered a noise reduction kit, which may give some indication of how noisy it can be.
I'm not trying to put you off though, but I'd keep the above in mind if you do intend to place a bid.

    EDIT: BTW, for some reason I can't change the core ration limits, they're gray now, did i change something I wasn't supposed to?
    Make all you changes in UEFI /Bios not clickbios, if those aren't there, you probably either have EIST disabled or Turbo Disabled. In some bio's you need to use the +/- keys on the number pad not mouse clicks to change them. If you are going to use clickbios II you need to enable making cpu mulitplier changes in the OS.

    With the Turbo method, all voltges are in Auto. You are correct in regards to a hard oc.

    Hello! I'm looking to purchase a Bluetooth. I'm really liking the LG Tone Pro. Does this work Good with a Iphone 4S?

    It should. I don't see why it wouldn't. It all depends on the quality of the headphones though. You should borrow one from someone who has it and test the headphones itself (music, calls, and other features)

  • Does this look sort of right?

    How do I create an object called myBook that would call the constructor that requires 3 arguments?
    Does this look sort of right in terms of making a conscructor?
    //Constructor
    setTitle(newTitleFloat);
    setUnit(newUnitFloat);
    setQuantity(new(QuantityFloat);
    calculateInterest();

    It's hard to know what you need w/out more information. But as a for instance, If I had a class with the following fields:
    class MyBook
        private String title = "";
        private double unit = 0.0;
        private int quantity = 0;
        private double interest = 0.0;
    }Then a possible constructor could be:
        public MyBook(String title, double unit, int quantity)
            this.title = title;
            this.unit = unit;
            this.quantity = quantity;
            calculateInterest();
        }Assuming of course that the class also has a method called calculateInterest().     
    It could be called like so:
        public static void main(String[] args)
            MyBook myBook = new MyBook("Tale of Two Skivies", 3.55, 5);
        }ps: please learn to use code tags. It makes your code much more readable.

  • New PC - does this look suitable?

    I'm looking to replace an old PC with a custom build:
    - i7-3770 3.4GHz
    - H77 chipset
    - 16GB DDR-1600 RAM
    - 3TB HDD
    - 256GB SSD
    - DVD Writer
    - On board graphics only
    - RaidMax Super Hurricane case
    - 500W PSU
    - Win8 or 7 64 bit
    - Card Reader
    I will continue to use a 30" (2560*1600) monitor.
    Does this spec look suitable for Lightroom / PSE and some basic video editing in Premiere Elements with plenty of headroom (I assume LR5 will gobble even more resources than LR4!!)?

    I would look seriously at a Xeon Quad processor instead of the i7 even if the Xeon had only 2.8 Ghz or 3 Ghz.
    Processor speed is not everything; you also need to look at workload, i.e. throughput.
    Don't be taken in for a "gamer's PC" - a gamer needs speed above all but the games have a relatively "thin" data stream.
    16 GB of RAM seems almost overkill; I have 12 GB and run Lr and Photoshop (+ a bunch of other programs) at the same time with no problems.
    I would replace the 3 TB drive with 3 drives @ 500 GB each. Keep in mind that with Lr that constantly reads and writes to and from the HD, the read-and write cycles build up. If you have only one internal HD it has to do all the read-and-write cycles and that can slow down your system, i.e. your RAM and processor have to wait for the drive to spin and do its reading and writing.
    But if you have 3 internal drives you are able to distribute the read-and-write cycles on 3 drives simultaneously.
    I'm not sure about your onboard graphics. When I looked into the specs of my new computer (now about 9 months old) I found that onboard graphics alone would not be optimal.
    Again, i think it's good enough for browsing the web and gaming. But photo editing, particularly if you have a camera with a full-frame sensor, i.e. large Raw-files, it's a different matter.
    I would not go with onboard graphics alone - my personal opinion. But then again, you can try it out, and - if there's a slot for it - get a graphics card later.

  • Trained for ADSL2+, does this look about right

    I got migrated from ADSLmax over to ADSL2+ about 10 days ago, and since then the line has been training. Please could someone look at the stats below and tell me if this looks about right?
    I changed from a HH1.5 to HH2.0. I was hoping to get about 19MBit/s, based on the fairly low attenuation, but it appears to have settled on 14.5MBit/s. I have left the router switched on without interruption for about 1 week now. It drops and reconnects about once per day, which I assume is normal during training. The noise margin seems to have settled on about 6dB, which I believe is fairly normal as well.
    Any thoughts?
    I suspect that this is probably as good as it gets for me, but would appreciate someone knowledgeable checking for me, thanks

  • Its working just fine but does it look good? Take a look and give me your advice!

    I got to say that this is my first finnished labview program, and  it's working fine, almost no problems. But i'm not that shure about
    this huge while loop with all its instructions. Normaly a while loop takes 1 ms to iterate once, but this loop takes more than one ms,
    I'm using another subVI to catch data up to 5 ms. / sample as output from measurement device to  the while loop in this Sub vi, and then from this sub VI i'm initializing the data value read from the Measurement device, to a global variable that i read in this huge while loop.  I belive that the subVI while loop iterates several times before the huge loop iterates once. Meaby thats why my graphs for the data are plotting more than one data at a time.
    Take a look and give your advice, it seems that all the measurements are well. And I don't really got problems with the program when running, exept from small delays when I switch the sample rates.

    I agree with Titou.
    Wow!  That's an eye-full. 
    There are some functions like setting audio On / Off that may not need to be in there.  Or do they?  You'd have to describe what the loop is supposed to do.  Same comment for the indicator display settings on property nodes.  Do you intend to turn them on/off a number of times during an iteration of the loop?
    You should "divide & conquer".  By that I mean, use sub-vi's that are function specific.  As mentionned by Titou, you should have a look at the development guidelines.   Basically, now that you have a working loop, you can improve it by creating some sub-vi's, revisit some items that may  not need to be in the loop.  As a matter of fact, you could create some control & indicators and maybe transform the loop into a sub-vi as well. 
    There are many Case Statements that you could convert to sub-vi's and that way, you could eliminate the global variables by using indicators and wiring directly to them.
    However, I would have to say that the value for "Write Flow Data" might become unpredictable due to race conditions.  Revisit how the value(s) are set for that one.
    But it does look like you had some fun doing this one.  Which is the most important thing.  To have fun implementing solutions with LV.
    Happy wiring!

  • Does this look right? (see photo)

    look at the connection piece for the power charger. The two end parts (and other places) are black. Does this mean I need to go to the Apple store to get this replaced somehow?
    in the past, I have experienced burning myself when I touched the charger...
    it currently smells really weird. it has a smell of metal (but stronger) along with the smell of something rotting.
    the computer has trouble charging. The charger itself works on my mom's Macbook2008, but not on mine. It works only about 33% of the time, and it is becoming annoying. Even when it is charging, one touch to the charger and I need to spend at least 5 min trying to get it charging again.
    This is a early2011 MBP. Are there similar problems out there on other MBP's of the same type?

    I would take that computer to an Apple Store or reseller to get it diagnosed just because of security, and it's dangerous to have the MagSafe in that status, more when you have problems charging the MacBook

  • Motion Project does not look good in FCP

    I am using FCP 5.0 and Motion2. I made a lower third title graphic in Motion. When I embed the clips back into FCP they look pixalated. They do not look as good as they did originally. Does anyone have a solution?

    Hey,
    Here's the result from last night. The quicktime file is good. It seems that Motion projects in FCP, even from rendered QT files, don't display their true image.
    My output this morning for my project is flawless. Even though the timeline looks horrible.
    The reason this seems to come up in this forum again and again, is probably that Boris 3D, FCP's titles, even LiveType, all display their true clean rendered image in FCP. Motion, however, doesn't seem to do that.
    My guess is that it hangs on to a thumbnail representation for FCP of the rough draught render that motion must create so you can place your motion project in your FCP timeline live. (you know, you can switch back and forth and update a motion project and it updates it in FCP. )
    It just doesn't say that anywhere that I was looking.
    So, if anyone else is creating Motion projects and importing them into Final Cut, be aware that what you see in Final Cut is not what is going to render in your output. It will be full resolution and without the alising that appears in FCP's timeline.
    Whew!
