How To Make a Used Graphics Workstation More Attractive?

I'm in the process of upgrading to a more powerful workstation, and once I switch over I'll be putting the one I am using now (a Dell Precision T5400) up for sale on eBay.
My current machine is no slouch. It a dual quad core system and even by modern standards still well up there in power (it starts Photoshop CS6 in 3 seconds and scores over 10,000 on the Passmark CPU benchmark). It's a perfectly functional, reliable system; I just need even more power for some of my development activities.
I'm toying with the possibility of making it more attractive to potential buyers by putting a bit more money into a couple of SSDs for it.
If you were looking to buy a reasonably powerful Photoshop machine on a budget, which of these would seem more attractive to you? I've highlighted the differences in bold.
$1200 for:
Professional quality Dell Precision T5400 workstation, Dell keyboard, optical mouse
Dual quad core Xeon x5460 3.16 GHz processors (8 cores total)
16 GB 1333 MHz ECC RAM (4 x 2 GB FBDIMMs)
Drive C: 2 TB total (2 x 1 TB 7200 RPM hard drives in RAID 0)
VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 5670 1 GB DDR5
Windows 8 Pro, along with a copy of my Configure the Windows 8 "To Work" Options book.

$1400 for:
Professional quality Dell Precision T5400 workstation, Dell keyboard, optical mouse
Dual quad core Xeon x5460 3.16 GHz processors (8 cores total)
16 GB 1333 MHz ECC RAM (4 x 2 GB FBDIMMs)
Drive C: 256 GB (2 x 128 GB new OCZ Vertex 4 fast SSDs in RAID 0, boots up Windows 8 in under 15 seconds).
Drive D: 2 TB total (2 x 1 TB hard drives in RAID 0)
VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 5670 1 GB DDR5
Windows 8 Pro, along with a copy of my Configure the Windows 8 "To Work" Options book.
If you have another suggestion as to what I might add or change that would make it seem more attractive, I'm interested as well.
Would it seem attractive to say it will have Windows 8 already set up and ready to go? Or do you think people would prefer to install the OS themselves afresh? Also, I could sell it with Windows 7 instead of 8, as I do have a license for it; I just thought that having it be set up with a modern OS would seem more attractive.
Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Yes, if one follows the steps in my book it can be a powerful system. The desktop looks a bit austere without the Aero Glass feature, but Windows 8 actually is a fair bit more efficient than Windows 7, both booting up faster and running less stuff that uses resources all the time. My minimum yet fully configured installation has only 37 processes running.

HOW TO CHANGE THE USEFUL LIFE FOR MORE ASSETS AT A TIME FOR ASSET CLASS

Hi All,
Asset which is under Asset Class Support system-B700. Here every thing is ok but the problem in USE FULL LIFE which is come by default. It must be 4 instead of 5.   So can any body help me out from this how to change the Useful life in that Asset class. In that Asset Class we have the morethan 200 Assets. It was happend in Prdocution system so now the problem is where i can change the useful life for the asset class either in DEV or PRD.
       Also i want to know the information of How these assets are Uploaded into the system (Lsmw or etc). this is very urgent for me.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Siva.

Hi Ashok,
     Can i know the reason how it was happend. i mean instead of 4 years the system showing is 5yesrs any reason is there behind that.
Thanks in Advance.

How to make and use customised DataSource

Hi Gurus. If we are not making cubes for Inventory etc for which DS is already available, how can we create data sources in order to load the desired data in BW.means if Database fields are entirely different
kind regards
rajesh

Hi,
Customised extractors are called Generic extracters.
Usage:
1. When the standard extractors are not supporting the extraction what you need. If SAP does not have a standard extractor for your need to get data from R3, you would have to go for generic extractor.
2. If you create a custom object say by combining certain base tables in R3 say custom tables ZTAB1 and ZTAB2. These two tables are not SAP provided tables and there will not be any standard extractors. So cases like this you will have to go for generic extractors.
3. FI-SL requires generic extractors.
How:
You have to use RSO2 transaction and you can also set delta based on, one of the three characteristics such as timestamp, calday or pointer (a sequence no).
once you create it and activate it. The extractor will be available in ROOSOURCE - (table in R3 where all the data sources are available).
Steps
Log on sap R/3.
Step 1. create a table or view for generic extraction in se11.
Step 2. Goto t-code RSO2
Step 3. Here u have to decide whether to extract transaction data or master data attributes or texts.
Step 4. suppose if u have opted for transaction data,then give name in the column ex:ztd_m(data source name)
Step 5. select create button,this will take u to another screen.
Step 6. Here u have to decide from which application component u r extacting data.Ex: SD,MM,..
Step 7. in this screen u have to fill short disciption,medium,long( these r mandatory).
Step 8. then U have to Table name or view name which u have created in se11.
Step 9. I f u want to maintain generic delta then u can select generic delta in top left hand side corner.
Step 10. in next screen u have to give some field which is primary key.
step 11. here u to specify whether time stamp or cal day or numeric pointer depending on u r requirement.
step 12. then u have to specify whether new status for changed records or additive delta.
If u choose additive delta ,then u have to load data to infocube or ods object.
If u choose new status for changed records, then u to load data to ods object only.
Step 13. then save it.
Step 14. then logon to sap bw ,then replicate the data source then as usuall.

I have an ipad 3/32GB..I need more storage and not sure how to make better use of icloud and release GB

To add to my original question: I had a 1st generation ipad and 32GB was more than enough storage now I'm having trouble making movies, adding media, etc. I have bought another 15GB of storage on I cloud. Can I put all of my apps on i cloud?
I'm going to be taking an overseas flight and wanted to rent a bunch of movies but I'm not sure how to do that.
I would be grateful for any help
sherrislp

To answer your question, you could remove your apps and then download them again as needed. Your purchased apps are part of what is stored in iCloud and purchased apps do not count against the allotment anyway - As far as I know.
You would want to backup to iCloud before you delete the apps. If it were me, I would also back up and sync with iTunes - I still use iTunes and I back up to both iCloud and iTunes.
The suggestion that James made would be OK for bringing the movies with you on the trip .... But you need to be able to use WiFi in order to use the device and the way that I read your question, you want to download movies to watch on the flight. So that will not work on the airline flight. It would store the content for later viewing but won't work on the flight. That is my understanding of the GoFlex drive, but you would have to investigate it further.

How to make pages a graphics layout program

In the earlier version og Pages, you used to beable to choos wheater you wanted to use the program as a wordprosesser or a graphics layout program.
How do you make this desigation in the new version of Pages.

If you use the Help in the Help menu in your Pages you will find this
Create a page layout document
In page layout documents, every page is a blank canvas to which you can add text, images, shapes and other objects, and arrange them however you want. Some Pages templates are designed specifically for creating page layout documents.
If you're using a word-processing template, you can convert it to a page layout document at any time, to have more flexibility in how you design each page. For example, to add text to a page layout document, you add text boxes and type your content in them. You can then layer text boxes with objects, which isn't possible in word-processing documents.
Important: When you convert a word-processing document to a page layout document, any existing body text (text that's not in a text box) is deleted. If you want to save the body text, copy it before you convert the document, then paste it into a text box or another Pages document. Also, when you convert, all objects that are set to move inline with text (in the Arrange pane of the Format inspector) are deleted. All other objects are set to stay on the page and not move with text.
Convert a word processing document to a page layout document
You can covert a document at any time, but it's easiest to do it when you first open the word processing document template (for example, the Blank templates).
Do one of the following:
Choose File > Convert to Page Layout (from the File menu at the top of your computer screen).
Click Setup inspector , click Document, then deselect the Document Body tickbox.
To convert from a page layout document to a word processing document, choose File > Convert to Word Processing (from the File menu at the top of your computer screen).

How to make curved lines in image more smooth and clear

How do i make this clear its and image, i want to make the lines really clear and smooth

Quick and dirty:
Use Gaussian blur to soften the edges, (I used a value of 2). The use levels, and drag the black and white sliders towards thge center.
Much better to create from scratch using the rough graphic as a template. If it is a one off, then just stroke a path for the circular outlines, and use a layer mask for the break in the inner circle.
For the curved text, the simplest way is to use the type tool, and then the Create warped text tool from the Options bar, but I doubt you'd get a tight enough curve, so you'll need to use Type on a path. The easiest way to do that in this case would be to drag out a circular selection with the Marquee tool using the Shift and Alt/Opt keys, and then use the Make work path from selection icon at the bottom of the Paths panel. Hover the Type cursor over the path and type your text. If you use Center justified and start at the top, to keep it symetrical, but I just get it close, and fix it with Free Transform. The rest is straight forward. I used Areil bold for curved text, and Times New Roman bold for the center text. Use a custom shape for the Tick. If the tick is not quite to your liking, use the Direct selection tool (a) to drag the points to a better shape.
If you want to use this in a layout program like InDesign, save the layered document as an EPS file, which will be (mostly) vectored and scaleable in InDesign. You'd need to use Shape layers for the two circles to make it fully vectored.

If I add a new city in Weather on my iPhone in Chinese ( I had to add it using Chinese, btw), it shows as it is on my Mac. See picture below.
I also noticed that I can add that city again on my Mac again, in English of course. See picture below.
This happens in the other direction too. Adding a city on my mac in English, then it shows in English on my iPhone, and I can still add a Chinese version of that city.
This is weird to me, because usually this should be designed as the same model with two different views (same thing in different languages), not two separated models.
Please let me know if you know how Weather syncs data and/or how to solve this issue.

The behavior becomes even weirder if I add a city in one language on one device and then add the same city in another language on another device. Take the capital of France for example, I added '巴黎' (Paris in Chinese) on my iPhone (and it is synced to Mac), then I added 'Paris' on my Mac. To my surprise, the second entry shows as '巴黎' on my iPhone, not as 'Paris' (I now have two exactly same entries on my iPhone).
And after I add another city on my iPhone, the second capital-of-France entry on my Mac becomes '巴黎' too. ( I think this is normal, as things are synced to another device when updated on one device).
notes:
- This also happens on the other direction.
- This is not happening every time. Sometimes this bug shows up, sometimes not.
- I found this behavior long ago. I'm pretty sure this is not only for the latest versions of iOS and Mac OS.

Move the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> to the root of the other drive. Press and hold down shift as you launch iTunes and keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl where X:\ is the drive letter.
You should also consider making a backup of your library to an external drive.
iTunes will still want to store iOS backup data on the system drive unless you use the following process to relocate it.
Moving the iOS device backup location
Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up, or with Start > Run on older Windows.
To move the current backup folder from C: to X: (for example) type in this command and press <Enter>
Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
Where <User> is your Windows user name.
To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
If your preferred drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "X:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
If you have Windows XP then you'll need a third-party tool such as Junction to link the two locations together instead of the MkLink command. The source folder is C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

Oops-how to make full use of it?

Hi guys my question is,
I have used oops in abap mainly in alv, and for some other functions like downloading to an excel and stuff like that.
But how do I harness the real power of oops. How can i make my day to day coding better by using say global classes and already existing objects.
For example are there classes out there with methods to say calculate the accounts recievables? Get all the attributes of an inbound/outbound delivery. Get the details of a purchase order without me having to select from the PO headers and items and so forth. I have tried to study some standard code as well but I didnt get any hint from it.
Can anyone throw some light on it?
Regards
Sameer

How to make stationary video of performance more interesting...

Hi,
I need some advice from experienced FCPX users.
I was given about an hour of video of a performance involving a group of people singing with some dancing/movement. I am adding captions of the lyrics being sung because the audio captured a bit of room echo that made some of the words being sung less distinct. The video was shot on an unattended camera in a balcony overlooking the venue. So, I have sharp (HD) video of the performance, and the lighting is actually good. But the footage itself is a bit boring because the camera angle never changes, and the vantage point is distant enough that the action on stage only fills part of the frame, and there's a lot of extraneous space on all sides.
I tried using cropping in FCPX to zoom in on the action, which certainly gives me a tighter, more interesting view, at the expense of pixellation/blurriness.
I am still kind of a FCPX newbie and I'm wondering if I might do something with any of the other effects to make this footage more intersesting, calling attention to the action without degrading image quality.
Thanks in advance!

I'm doing this with some of my projetcs too: a 'general' cam, overviewing the scenery, but unattended.
Knowing this, I record in 1080; but I set up my project in 720 - which means, I can zoom-in by factor 3-4 without (almost) any loss! So, blurriness occur only when the cropping factor gets really high... under low light conditions, beyond 200% scale is not acceptable.
This way, I can perform cuts to 'two' angles from one cam: clip#1 shows a part of the stage on the left, clip#2 shows the right part; or, I do add a 'pan with grace' via Ken Burns.
What's really helpful in such situations is a 2nd ''free' cam - there you get close-ups, diff. perspectives, and 'neutrals' for cut-aways (faces, hands, feet, deco, lights). Knowing, this will be a single-stunt, I like to record before and after the show such stuff… Or, ask another person to take stills; any cheap photo/phone can take pics which 'fit' by terms of quality into any video. On a wedding I once had an 11y old assistent, who took (partly) surprising good photos! ...
May be, some other persons of the audience took stills, you can ask for? ...
Finally. why not faking it? Do you have material from any audition of the same show? Do you have a chance to record a 2nd performance, diff. place, diff. time? Just to get some 'intercuts'.....
Sadly forgotton film-theorist Лев Влади́мирович Кулешо́в 'invented' the socalled Kuleshov-effect: The audience does the 'montage' of a scenery in its head - two pics, totally unrelated, result in 'one'. Example extremé: you can do cut-aways to ANY audience-shot avail! Funny action+laughing people=one movie ... although the laughing people never saw the performance, nor shared the same room! (usual for audio: sit-com laughter from tape)
just as some suggestions....

How to make full use of Apple iCloud

As a MacOS X 10.7 (Lion) and iOS 5 user, I have free access to Apple's iCloud services. I have used iCloud successfully in rural Georgia under Windstream DSL but I find no mention of iCloud in my search of the Verizon support forums. As I plan to move to Florida and have arranged for Verizon FiOS Internet, I'd really like to get a better handle on whether and how Verizon supports iCloud. I have 30 days to cancel the Verizon account and make other arrangements if necessary. Thanks in advance for any information on this topic.
It appears that I will not be able to use Apple's authenticated SMTP server (smtp.me.com) and that I must instead use outgoing.verizon.net. Is that correct or is there a way to use yje iCloud SMTP servers?

So are you saying that Verizon blocks port 25? If so, I can use port 587 according to Apple's iCloud support document on this subject: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4002 I'll try that.
Short answer, yes.

How to make joins using different tables depending on inputs? Dynamic Query

Hi,
I have this situation:
- A form with a few input messages;
- Each input corresponds to a table on a DB;
- A user can search for information filling any input, one or more;
- With the inputs filled I have to dynamic create the query, execute it and show the returned lines on a table.
How I am supposed to do that? What is the right way to make it? Can I alter a VO query on runtime including from arguments?
Any light would be apreciate!
Thanks,
Marcelo
