How fast of processor?
Im looking to buy a new mac book ro pro not sure yet but just wondering how fast of proocessor i need. im gunna use it for school , movies, photos, music, internet games, and some fairly big store bought games but wont play verry much.
Hi lookingformac: I think I would respectfully disagree with the other respondent. I would get the lower speed processor (You will not see a speed difference in "Real World" use). Spend the money you saved on the processor to max out the ram.
Happy Mac computing

How fast/well does GB2/3 run on a Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor Mac Pro
never bothered to ask this before but it finally came to me.
Does anyone who had G5's ( Quad-4.5gb RAM )& who now own the Dual Core Mac Pro souped up notice major improvements in how GB2/3 operates? i mean as far as:
1- speed
2- allowing for more midi tracks/audio/loops/etc
what is the difference with the new Dual Core MACS in terms of how GB works? and therefore why should someone invest in the Mac Pro?
i.e. will there be a major speed bump with ilife from a Quad to the new intel dual cores?I did not ever have a PowerPC Mac nor I have a Mac Pro (which is 4 core, not 2), but anyway GB as of version 3.0.4 is not optimized for multiple cores. This means it will only use 1 core of no matter how many you have on your system. This said, it should anyway quite a bit faster on a Xeon Mac Pro than on a G5 PowerMac, but not sure how faster. Also the number of audio tracks you can have mostly depends on the hard drive speed, even a week G4 CPU can do like 40-50 stereo tracks if the drive is fast enough.

How fast is your MB Unibody 2.4 fan when watching Hulu?
When ever I watch any flash based video over the web my fan goes 6000+. Is this normal? How fast is your fan?
I sold my 1st gen MacBook and bought a MacBook Pro because of the same problem. I have a 2008 aluminum MBP now with the same graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor) as yours and my fans stay at 2000RPM when watching Hulu.
Your fan may be running high because you only have one fan compared to mine having 2, and the interior of your unit is smaller than mine, thus causing more heat buildup.
FWIW...My 1st gen MacBook Air's fan runs 6000RPM when watching Hulu on it.

How fast does a macbook battery usualy drain?
I'm just curious how fast is typical for a macbook battery to drain each time you use it. I got a replacement batter b/c my old one was a dud. This one has drained 10% (100% to 90%) in about 35-40 minutes (constant use). I'm not saying that's abnormal, I'm just curious what normal is.
Gracias!
P.S. Screen is turned on medium light and bluetooth is off (however, wireless is on).That sounds good. If your battery drains like that you could get 4 or 5 Hours out of it. If you take good care of it you should have no problems. It is OK to leave your battery hooked to the charger most of the time. The only time I unhook mine from the charger is when I calibrate. Have you calibrated your batteryyet? You should calibrate every two months or so to keep the battery fully functioning. If you use your MacBook infrequently, it’s best to re-calibrate the battery at least once a month.
The following links have good information about the MacBook and the care of it's battery.

How fast does a while loop executes
hi how fast does a while loop actually checks its condition??
depending on the processor speed??
anyone??Sorry I write that wrong,
heres how it should be:
public class whileLoop{
int time, time2;
time = System.currentTimeMillis();
public timer()
while //watever//{
time2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
time2 = time2 - time;
system.out.println(time);
class use{
whileLoop a = new whileLoop();
public void main(String args[]){
a.timer();

I have bought a Movie (20th century fox dist) with a digital copy i can download to itunes. everytime i try to redeem the code, itunes say's "session timed out, try again", no matter how fast I try. itunes help/support is no help. anybody had a similar problem and resolved?
I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/ -
PCI 6110 Digital I/O, How to and How fast?
The max the board can run is 5MS/s. There are Digital and Analog I/Os. I want to run Analog and Digital I/O with different speeds, analog @ 1.25MS/s and Digital at ? (don't know how fast it can go). I think I can achieve it by using PFI pins, but I am not sure. Could those be used as timing signals for Digital I/O?
And again, what is maximum Digital I/O speed that can be achieved on the board, which simultaneously samples analog inputs too. Any buffer problem (On-Board (8192 Samples!)) or RAM problem?
Attempt to solve any of these Questions are appreciated.dhruvish,

How fast does Apple produce new RAW files for new cameras? I want to buy a D7100 wich is not supported in the present version?
Jeannot7 wrote:
I'm interested in seeing who gets the D7100 support first? Apple or Adobe!! I will go with the one that gets it out first.
FWIW,
Adobe keeps a quarterly release schedule for RAW updates. The current Lightroom 4.4 RC expires on 5/31/2013 which typically is an indication that the official release will be close to that date. According to the current list of new supported cameras, the Nikon D7100 is not slated to be supported (but that could change on release).
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lightroom4-4/?tabID=details#tabTop
The most likely time frame for Adobe support of the D7100 will be sometime in August or September 2013 (although there will probably be a Lightroom 4.5 RC available prior to that for testing purposes). -

How fast text search field in Oracle without using Intermedia?
How fast text search field in Oracle without using Intermedia? Thank you, Paul.
yes,it is overriden in VOImpl
public void executeQuery()
setQuery((new StringBuilder()).append(selectStmt).append(" order by ").append(getOrderByClause()).toString());
OAApplicationModuleImpl oaapplicationmoduleimpl = (OAApplicationModuleImpl)getApplicationModule();
OAApplicationModuleImpl _tmp = oaapplicationmoduleimpl;
if(oaapplicationmoduleimpl.isLoggingEnabled(1))
OAApplicationModuleImpl _tmp1 = oaapplicationmoduleimpl;
oaapplicationmoduleimpl.writeDiagnostics((new StringBuilder()).append(getClass().getName()).append(".executeQuery").toString(), (new StringBuilder()).append(" Query:").append(getQuery()).toString(), 1);
super.executeQuery();
But I have extended VO and substituted the VO . In the substituted VOImpl, instead of executeQuery(),I have written
public void customExecuteQuery()
setQuery((new StringBuilder()).append(selectStmt).append(" order by ").append(getOrderByClause()).toString());
executeQuery();
Will this work,or do I need to do any changes?

How fast is Macbook Air 11 inch wifi?
Hi
I have a Macbook air 11 inch 2015 and Asus ac87u router.
I alway getting 867mbps when i connected to the router, I thought AC could go up to 1gbps+.
How fast can the macbook air go?
Thanks1Gbps is a theoretical speed - you aren’t going to get that speed and what you are getting is among the fastest I’ve seen. There are several things that bring you below the theoretical speed which includes inference, congestion, how far you are from the router, the number of connections to the router, and network ‘housekeeping’.

How fast is Mathscript compared to calling a c program using Call Library Function? In general, Labview is pretty slow in executing itterative algorithms. I get around this by writing these algorithms in C and calling them from Labview. How fast will Mathscript be compared to calling C code.
We don't currently have any benchmarks now in this regard, so we can't give you a quantitative answer right now.
Nonetheless, MathScript, like LabVIEW itself, is compiled for
efficient execution. MathScript execution is fast when the algorithm is
dominated by computational complexity. However, loop overhead and
scripts that are not vector- or matrix-based will decrease the
execution speed.
We'd be happy to take suggestions for any specific benchmarks that you'd like to see--please let me know.
Sincerely,
