Help Me Explain

Cut a long story short, I recently sold my Power Mac G5 on eBay.
Buyer has contacted me requesting a refund based on the "fact" that this revision of Power Mac G5 has a 500 GB limit on storage capacity. He is basing these claims on this spec page on Apple's web site:
<http://support.apple.com/kb/SP96>
"Support for up to two internal Serial ATA drives; 500GB maximum system capacity"
I've tried to explain to the buyer that there is no storage limitation for SATA controllers, that the specs page was written when 250 GB drives were the maximum size available. So far I'm not getting through to him.
If there anyone out there with the same rev a original Power Mac G5 that is successfully running more than 500 GB of internal storage, please put your hand up and help me out.
Even if you don't have this computer, I would appreciate your input. Do you believe this is a real limitation or not?
Thanks in advance

Sounds like 'buyers' remorse and looking for an out, any out, to back out of the deal, rather than based on specs or logic or.... argument.
The only limitations for 2003 PowerMac G5s:
no support for native command queueing
or spread spectrum clocking - which came later.
They support SATA 1.0 specification and SATA only came out in spring '03.
A lot of people were even caught off guard by inclusion of SATA (not known for jumping on new technology).
ATA-5/6/7 specification for 48-bit LBA covers "large" drives, but there may be a problem with 2TB drives is all.
The G5 1.6/1.8/1.8DP show slower SATA bus bandwidth and don't take advantage of some drives, even though they still 'work.'
Read the Wiki Serial ATA specification
The 640GB WD Caviar (Black/Blue) are excellent in all models.
So are 1TB models and you can include the 1TB (Black/Blue/Green).
What are they planning to use anyway? 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda 7200.11s?
WD 2TB RE4 model?
10K VelociRaptor?

Can Anyone help to explain why character \ is used in Route pattern.

Can Anyone help to explain why character \ is used in Route pattern. also if you could explain *11\+1.289201XXXX ?

Well, I think the proper characterization would be that the design is based on a loose interpretation of RegEx. For instance, the asterisk "*" is typically used as the directive for zero or more occurrences of the preceding character. In the UCM dial plan, the * is a valid digit and someone decided to avoid the nastiness of escaping asterisk every time it is needed. On a related point, in standard regex build the "?" is used for a 0 or 1 match. In UCM, the "?" is 0 or more (so, it is like the asterisk in that way).
That said, I get your point. Someone says "hey, we need wild cards" and the likely place to start pulling examples is RegEx.

Open GarageBand's preferences, and under Audio/MIDI set the Input popUp menu to the iMic. You can also set the Output popUp to the iMic if you have headphones plugged into it, otherwise set it to Built-In.

thanks.
sorry, maybe i only insert pieces of the codes and its vague...ok, in this source code...what i dun understand is....i have cut and paste the sections of codes which i dun understand as below..
bcoz this codes are passed down from my seniors who had graduated...and my task is to explain these codes in the form of a report without me having any background on programming...i tried asking some frens...its either they dunno or forgotten...this is my last hope...thanks again...thanks..

Printer needs output as an .ai (.pdf won't work): please help me explain

Hello, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have this client who is a great client but for various reasons their print vendors for packaging are incredibly special. I've begged them to change vendors, but it's not going to happen. Their paper printing vendors are fine (great actually), and the packaging vendors I use with other clients are fine, I think it's just because they are using the absolute cheapest vendors.
The situation is that I use InDesign to create packaging (boxes, plastic tubes, labels, the whole bit). It's much more efficient for me because for their specific stuff, I use master pages, character/paragraph styles, update linked graphics, etc. This sort of thing is possible in Illustrator via other tools, but I strongly feel InDesign is a much better solution. When I'm done, I export a CMYK PDF (sometimes spot, but either either way, it's a clean, tidy PDF). I'm pretty comfortable with my settings for this as I don't have trouble with any other vendor.
The problem is that my client is getting emails like this: Is it possible for you to send me the true vector files in either .ai or .eps format?
I could take the PDF into Illustrator and outline the fonts, and give them one huge, extremely messy package of AI files (and I'm sure they're on Illustrator 8 or something), but the client will need changes after the proof, and there are a lot of files here, so I have to do this, and redo it, etc. Not to mention this client is WAY over budget.
So, what I'm begging for help with: I've been trying to google for something that explains why a PDF is a better file than an AI file for this purpose and why they should be able to use PDF, but I'm coming up with very little. So far I have general Adobe and Wikipedia articles (which covers raster vs vector), but I haven't found any info from a third party that explains why printers should be using (or at least able to use) a PDF to generate plates (poly or otherwise).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much.

I actually hadn't thought of that (actually, hardly ever think about .eps anymore). It's a good point though.
In CS4 (don't remember previous versions), I can export these just as easily as a PDF, but then I still have to outline the fonts, zip up several files instead of just sending a PDF, etc. It's 10 minutes, if that; but this is happening consistently with their packaging vendors. I'd rather educate their vendors than do work-arounds for them. I'm not trying to be a jerk about it, but if they don't know a PDF can be just as "true" a vector as an AI/EPS, the problem isn't just outdated equipment, it's a lack of seriously basic pre-press knowledge.
I was sure adobe (or someone) had a nice article on why a PDF was a better solution, but I'm having a hard time finding it. More than a work-around, I'm really looking for general information for them as to what a PDF is (versus AI/EPS). Then I can at least tell my client that their printer requires me to do extra work, and I'll just bill out for my time. It's a nominal fee, because these work-arounds aren't that elaborate, but sooner or later my client will do the math and realize that it's in their best interest to find a better printer. I know a lot of great printers right now that are hurting (although sadly, none of them do packaging), I'd much rather see work go to printers who make an effort to stay educated about their industry.

Help me explain the need for RAM? Please???

Hi, I work on a G5 in my new job as a 'Mac operator' (I'm in pre-press). At first I thought this has to be one of the original G5's that had issues, because it is pretty slow for a G5. So I decided to check the profiler and see just what my little Mac is made of. I must say my jaw hit the floor and my two co-workers were probably thinking I had just had a stroke.
Without further ado, the specs:
CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (2.2)
Number Of CPUs: 2
CPU Speed: 1.8 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 512 MB
Bus Speed: 900 MHz
Now you see why I need help? I have to wait for Quark to draw palettes ALL the time. I'm usually running InDesign, Quark, Illustrator, Photoshop, Suitcase, Thunderbird, Acrobat (the real one), and connected to FTP. Switching apps takes forever. I told my supervisor that it needed more RAM and she said, 'we can burn some stuff off and give you more room if you want'. So that's what I'm dealing with here. Anyone explain it for someone like that??? PLEASE? I've now dubbed the G5 "Smalls" - as in, "You're killing me, Smalls!"
Thanks so much for any help that leads to Smalls and I getting more RAM.

You don't have Universal Binaries yet. That hurts a lot. And the programs you use love memory, and Rosetta needs a GB too.
Your Mac would run some of those programs faster than Windows box IF you were to use Boot Camp, install Windows XP, and the windows versions.
There are some sites with benchmarks of programs and comparing MacBook Pro vs others.
www.hardmac.com
www.barefeats.com
www.xlr8yourmac.com
512MB of memory is minimum of what OS X requires. Most users found 1.5GB to be the 'sweet spot' for general purpose.
CS2 gets along fine with its own 3.5GB, and best with 7-8GB of memory - as OS X uses memory cache first before needing to use scratch.
You can show them how many swap files there are. just do a Finder Go To (command shift g)
/private/var/vm/
that would be one way. Monitor real and virtual in Top and Activity Monitor.
Monitor disk usage.
Ask for a 150GB Raptor!
Quark is coming along with a new UB version. CS3 is still about 9 months plus away.
You really really need a G5 Dual or Quad Core, with support for more drives and 8-16GB RAM.
there is no reason NOT to max out the RAM in your system!

Need help understanding Explain Plan from 10046 trace

Below is a query and Explain Plan from a 10046 trace shown with trcanlzr.sql.
In the explain plan I don't understand what's happining at line ID 10 and 11. Specifically, is the result at line 11 rowids from lines 12 & 14? and then what? Are those rowids somehow used in line ID 10?

INDEX UNIQUE SCAN CAT_TYPE_CODE_UK 3/3 [+]   [+]   The NESTED LOOPS operation (ID #11) has two children, ID #12 sometimes called the driving source, and ID #14 the inner loop. ID #14 is executed once for each row returned by ID #12. The results of ID #11 are then fed to ID #10 which performs an INDEX RANGE SCAN.
Hope this helps!

We do need the actual DMP file as it contains the only record of the sequence of events leading up to the crash, what drivers were loaded, and what was responsible.
We prefer at least 2 DMP files to spot trends and confirm the cause.

Help me explain to someone the difference between a laptop and an Ipad?

She keep comming up with these wierd questions? I know the difference but I'm having trouble explaining it to her to make her understand.
Thankx

a laptop can do everything her desktop can, including printing, keeping lots of folders with stuff in them, working on Ms Office, Databsess, playing flash games etc...
The ipad is meant to look at data. Books, pictures, videos, web pages, email, and listen to your ipod, of course. You can add programs, but they are normally not as functional (limited to some degree) when compared to desktop equivalents. There is a good spreadsheet, presentation program and word processor, however they are not the full programs as on her desktop.
The ipad is better for use around the house, when not needing to create complicated documents, print etc...
A typical night can be using it to see whats on the Tv that evening, finding nothing (no big surprise there), letting my 4 y/o play a game or two (usually shape matching or letters/shapes/numbers), reading a few pages of whinnie the pooh to him in his darkened room as he falls asleep. Then, since nothing is on tv, running the netflix app to stream a movie to it sitting in your lap. Head ot bed, reading on old Sci-Fi book from the 50's that was one of the 30,000+ on gutenberg for free, the backlight dimmed so as not ot keep my better half awake. Around midnight (good book , couldn't pout it down), plug it in to charge and see it still has over 10% battery left.
Hope that gives her something,
Jason

Please help me explain to my IT Department

I will be taking training very soon on RoboHelp 8 for Word and I need to talk to my IT department about what they need to do with the files I generate (in regards to placing them in our web application). Anyone have any suggestions on anything?

Hi there
In addition to what others have said, I'd be double-checking the training. Where are you attending training where RoboHelp for Word is offered? All the training I'm aware of is for RoboHelp HTML.
I think what Colum stated applies to RoboHelp HTML with the linking. I'm not certain RoboHelp for Word works in this manner, as Word is the editing environment.
Cheers... Rick

Help me explain this String Comparison Bug!

<%
      String strGender = rs.getString("gender");
      if(strGender.equals("male"))
           out.println("1");
      if(rs.getString("gender").equals("male"))
               out.println("2");
      %>In theory, the output should be "12". But guess what, only "2" was printed. I spent hours of debugging because I was supposed to use strGender.equals but the results only ended up in frustrations. So I made experiments, and the direct comparison of rs.getString was the result that worked.
Can anyone explain to me why?

You know what is weird...
the strGender already worked without me changing anything. All i did was eat my dinner, returned after 30mins, then it worked.
Not the first time I encountered this problem.
