I know this is a creative board, but what do you think about the iriver h10 2

Iri'ver just came out with a 20GB version of it's h0 jukebox player, as well as a GB flash version and a 6 GB version. This thing has all the features of the micro, voice recording, no line in, but fm radio etc, etc... and it views photos on a color screen. It's priced 50 bucks less than the ipod photo, although it doesn't have the ability to display slideshows on regular tv with music in the background, and, if it's the same as the h0 5 GB, it's going to be compatible with subscription music services... any thoughts?

First thing I think of when I hear iRi'ver: $$
And I'm pretty sure it will support PlaysForSure which is needed in all subscription based services...

Firewire is dead. But what do you think about this idea?

I know that the firewire port is saudered onto the logic board on my computer and I use to use it all the time but I was connecting my 12" powerbook to a powermac G4 through target disk mode and I accidently plugged in the firewire end in the powermac upside down. I had the other end alreay plugged into my powerbook and since then I got my firewire port has been unresponsive. I also got the ozone smell of death which made me wonder if the smell is the computer chip that controls the throughput of the firewire port or the actual firewire port itself? Because I use to use firewire a lot and so I am very sad to see something that I did, kill the port.
I had 2 hard drives and dv camcorder and my ipod and of course a firewire hub so I could plug it all in simultaneously. So what I am willing to do is take apart the computer and try to sauder on a new firewire port but now we are back to my original question, is it the port or computer chip. One thing I do know is that my ipod will still get charged even when its directly connected to the computer but nothing will mount.
If anybody has an input on my dilemma please feel free to add to this.
Thank you, Kenny

Hi!
I had coffe all over my 12" powerbook and was forced to resolder much of it to get back my ethernet, firewire and usb. Here is what you'll need to care about when you decide to open the machine:
The keyboard assembly is held by 4 screws, 2 of whose are hidden under function keys F1/F2 and F11/F12. Remove caps by gently lifting up their LEFT side.
Heatpipe assembly must be removed too. I managed overtighten one of screws, and part of it which is soldered to the mainboard got loose. Don't do that.
Almost everything else must be removed, which involves many different screw lengths. Keeping track of them somehow helps later when you put everything together.
Don't start the machine with any components (such as hard drive or screen) disconnected. Hardware identification takes ages to perform and will confuse you, because machine appears to be dead most of the time.
Soldering: Use antistatic iron, lead-free tip and solder. Residue-free flux-pen helps a lot. Almost everything you'll find onboard is SMD, which means that removing components with improper tools or using force will damage the board.
Using camera to document how components were placed before you remove them gets handy later.
Good luck!

What do you think of the new creative cloud cc that was just released?

What do you think of the new creative cloud cc that was just released? I'm using it now and I think it's great. It's cs6 on stereroids lol More new features that people who fully paid for cs6 should of had.
I do wish the cloud standard price changes to 29.99 a month for all users so everyone gets a chance to enjoy the cloud.

I just downloaded CC, and still have all my CS6 apps as backup. Bridge CC (64-bit) is showing the same unacceptable performance I had with CS6 version. Can't believe that Adobe is so inept. I did fix the CS6 version but I forget how I did it. CS6 version of Bridge is near instantaneous. And it's not a matter of building the cache. It takes the program forever just to respond to a simple mouse click in the menu bar.
Photoshop CC crashed my machine, whereas CS6 version runs perfectly. Afraid to download any further apps.
Adobe 11 failed to install because it think's prior version of the that program is still on the computer. I never installed Acrobat 11 on this machine. Just Acrobat 10, which also got the stupid 30-day "refuse to start" bug, so I'm using Acrobat 9.5 which works flawlessly. Funny how the newer the code from Adobe, the worse it gets for its customers.
I'm using Win 7 Pro, 16GB mem, Nvidia 2800M video card on Thinkpad with i7-920XM chip.

Thanks a lot!

I don't know Filesync, but to simply sync one folder to its backup I use SyncTwoFolders:

To clone the entire hard drive to an external bootable hard disk I use SuperDuper, but CCC has an equally good reputation.

+"A lithium-ion battery provides 300-500 discharge/charge cycles. The battery prefers a partial rather than a full discharge. Frequent full discharges should be avoided when possible. Instead, charge the battery more often or use a larger battery. There is no concern of memory when applying unscheduled charges"+
Seems to make sense..
I knew that lithium-ion batteries have no memory concerns, but still I thought that it was a good idea to charge and discharge the battery of a new iPod (or laptop) at least the first time..
Any thoughts?
Message was edited by: acidbahia

The reason it's sometimes recommended to do a full discharge/charge cycle on a new device is to calibrate the battery indicator. It doesn't do anything for the battery itself.
The quote you've given agrees with everything I've been taught about lithium-ion batteries.

What do you think about using plant in this way?

In your systems each plant is "real" - has real location and real manager, or also you have “virtual” plants to monitor a particular special process (for example: if you want different FI bookings for the same material movement type, or if you want to track special kinds of stock)?
What do you think about using plant in this way?

Hello Friend,
It is surely a good step from FI point off view but creating something virtual and transacting on it, from MM point of view is not feasible as it is difficult to frame the scenario and work on it.
Rest is your decision.

What do you think about this product ?

Hi,
I want to have access to SAP ECC 6.0 for personnal use, so I find a hard drive in the following web site :
http://www.erpselftraining.com/product/SAP-server-MCOD.html
Please can you tell me what do you think about this hard drive ? has anyone already tried it ? do you advise it ?
Your answers will be appreciated.
Kind regards.

is it for learning purpose ? then why dont you just download the demo versions of SAP!!

What do you think is the best method to achieve this:

Within my main timeline, I have a bunch of buttons that scale up on mouseOver and scale down on MouseOut. With your help, I have gotten these all set up exactly how I need them to be.... so thanks for that.
My next question is a bit trickier, I think I have a few options to achieve it, but curious what you think is the best way to do such a thing:
So, if you rollover a button, you get the scale up, now, what needs to happen, is when you click that button, the button scales to full screen with bleeds, check out the AS2 version here: www.straightlinenyc.com/introduction/launch.html (go to explore, and click any of the circles).
Right now, I am thinking that when you click a bubble, within its movieclip I will build the transition – so if you click, it will go to the btnHit label and there the button will scale up and set the stage for me to load in the case study work. My thinking is at the end of the scale up to full screen, I could put an enterFrame function, saying once you hit this frame, gotoAndPlay the case study frame that I will place on the main timeline.
Obviously, my problem right now, is that if you mouse off the buttons hit state while this is occurring, everything goes away – so thinking on hit I should remove the hit state child.
The other option that may make more sense, is to addChild the hit state, so when you click it, that just loads on top of the button then runs, is this the simpler way?
Anyway, just would be good to get "some" direction, and take it from there. Thanks!

Depending on the specs of your computer, time taken to convert DVD's to an iPod-playable format can vary. On my computer (see below), it takes about 10 hours to convert a 2-hour DVD to the iPod format, using Videora.
So, due to the extremely large size of the DVD rip, it'll take a while to convert it, regardless of how fast or slow your system is.

Creative Support. What R U Doing About The Firmware Update Iss

This post is primarily aimed at Creative Support.
Like many other out there that have a Zen player, i recently decided to upgrade my 40Gb Zen Touch's firmware from .0.03 to the latest PlayforSure version 2..0.
This is what i did on my Dell p.c.
) Upgraded my Win Media Player from version 9 to 0.
2) Backed up all my mp3 data to the HDD.
3) Erased all of the mp3 data from the player.
4) Connected the player to my p.c via USB ( 2.0 ).
5) Ran the firmware update, and selected to proceed with the upgrade.
During this process it warned me that the player may reboot a number of times during the 5min upgrade. The player rebooted twice, but on the 2nd time the update software couldn't initialize the player. I left this for about 5mins, to no joy.
I stopped the update via the close button and disconnected my player. When rebooted this shows the error "Firmware Problem" and proceed's to the Recovery Mode screen.
If i choose the "Reload Firmware" option this proceeds to Erase the firmware and then states "Start firmware update now". Even though the firmware software is on my desktop and the player connected to the p.c it fails to reload the firmware.
Now.... On my p.c, if i go into "My Computer", the player is clearly linked and present as an other linked device. However if i run the firmware update software from the desktop it say's "Your player is not connected, please connect your player".
This is a contradiction since the fact that my computer successfully detects the connected player and Media Player 0 also recognises that it is connected.
Like many other's out there we have paid good money for your products and expect a bit of commitment back to resolve these issues. For now i have player that might as well be a book-end.
Questions to Creative Support:
) Are you fully aware of the amount Zen owners experiencing this problem?
2) Are you working on a fix for this update problem?
3) If yes to question 2, when are we likely to see the results of this?
Regards

Wish I had seen this thread before attempting to update my firmware to the SurePlay version.
This is what I did.
I downloaded the Firmware, downloaded the extra software and download Windows Media 0.
I ran the firmware update and connected my player to the computer, no problems.
It said the player would reboot several times and on the 2nd or 3rd, it would no longer connect my device. It would tell me that there were no drivers for the device.
I tried re-booting the player several times, as it will now only boot into recovery.
I have re-installed the drivers, I have even re-verted back to the original drivers from the CD, but it now will not even connect. If I can't connect the device, I can't put any firmware on the Zen, which means I can't use it at all now.
I have been through the knowledge base, but even narrowing down my search to only Zen Touch players, I get several pages of irrelevant information.
I have e-mailed Creative and will see what response I get and I have also posted on another forum.
There must be someone out there that can help sort this, it was an excellent present to me and now its not working
Thanks

What to you think - as a professional webdesigner - of this website?

Hi,
Can you have a quick look at this site: http://www.azozi.be (sorry, the site in Dutch, but it concerns the look and feel of the site ...)
Does it has to much text or not?
Would you start reading this site?
What do you think about the usability and the contact form of this website?
What about the portfolio examples / images?
Thanks for your answers and tips ...
Your opinion helps!
[signature deleted by host]

dauwie,
Does it has to much text or not?
Maybe not, but there is surprisingly little to catch and lead the eye, and no logo/identity supporting contents.
Would you start reading this site?
I very well might, if my Vlaams were better.
What do you think about the usability and the contact form of this website?
The boxes should be larger, more or less filling the space allocated.
What about the portfolio examples / images?
They should be larger and clearly marked as portfolio.

What do you think of this Design for Multiple Threads

Hi Java Experts ;
I'm curious to know what you think about this design for a multhreaded app i'm working on.
I have a controller thread that (a.) creates threads and (b.) keeps a reference to threads that it creates (by sticking them in a hashtable along with the generated Id for that thread).
When a created thread completes its job, it decrements the thread counter and removes its reference from the hashtable before it finishes its run method.
Now here's the interesting part in my controller thread i'm creating new threads on the fly with this infinite loop
     public void run(){
          while(true){
               try{
                    Thread.sleep(500);
               }catch(InterruptedException e){
               if(threadCounter<maxThreadCount && moreJobsToDo.size()>0){
                    createDomainThread();
          }//end while
what do you think about this pattern ? My goal is to maintain about 200+ created threads running at all times with this pattern.

jeff kesslerman's book says about threads
"5.2.3 Threads
The impact that threads have on RAM footprint isn't a problem for most programs, but running threads do need space to store their stack state, and the system- specific data structures do consume memory.
Because runtime implementations vary widely in how threads are handled, you might encounter situations where the impact threads have on footprint is significant. For example, some ports of the JRE create a heavyweight OS process for each running thread. In an application that uses many threads, this means that thread costs, rather than class or object costs, can become the dominant factor in the program's memory consumption.
You shouldn't avoid using threads-they're necessary in many cases, and generally don't have a large impact on footprint. However, you should be aware that the impact can be very different across runtimes. This is one of the reasons it's a good idea to measure performance characteristics under your program's different target environments. "
Question #1: how does garbage collection go about clearing the stack state, and the system- specific data structures that consume memory.
Question #2: in my situation, each worker thread's activity is not as brief as a simple server request. Each thread does a lot work and does a lot of network connections. on average I would say 100 http request - each of which can be easily blocked or delayed significantly. Therefore each worker thread may operate for between 2 - 10 minutes.
Do you think thread pooling is useful in this situation ?
