Is Infinity worth the money

Hi What it is, I can get 6mb broadband, and I have been told that i can get infinity, with 20mb download, with 2mb up load with Option 1. Is it worth the £50 ( One off ), and the £19.99.

It depends how much you download or stream video. Although according the the engineer that installed mine, BT is being very cautious on its speed predictions on Infinity, he said every line he'd installed had hit the full 40mbps regardless of what the speed predictions said, so I'd say expect alot more than 20mbps.
There may be a case though, with option 1 that you'd exceed you're usage limit quite easily!

  • Is the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS worth the money for Final Cut Express?

    Hi,
    I'm considering a new iMac 24, but not sure if the speedier on is worth the money.
    Currently I use a MacBook Pro 2.2 for Final Cut Express with a 23" cinema (mostly DV, some HD) and that works okay, but won't play back in real time when I composit video.
    Anybody know if the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS will help in that area?
    Thanks,
    KC

    The speedier video card is great for 3D stuff, but it won't matter a wink for Final Cut Express, which barely makes use of the video card.
    Keep in mind that Final Cut is using the CPU, not video card, to perform the editing, decoding, and encoding of the video. The only time the video card comes into play is during playback of the video, and any of the video options available for iMacs will handle that just fine.
    When you composite video, the hard-disk throughput will start to come into play. The dinky 5400 RPM disk in your laptop will adversely affect the performance of that.

    SUBJECTS
    Enterprise Resource Planning Systems: This unit allows students to develop an appreciation of the impact of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems on businesses and to understand the issues involved in the design, implementation and maintenance of these systems.  Students also develop practical skills in the use of SAP R/3 as an example of an Enterprise Resource Planning System.
    Business Process Engineering: the strategic and organisational issues of process and workflow management and the use of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERPs) to realise efficient processes.  The subject describes the major strategic approaches, process modelling techniques, procedure models and the current possibilities offered by SAP R/3 as an example of ERPs software that students are likely to encounter in identifying, reorganising and implementing processes in a typical business organisation.
    Management Information Technology: a framework for the management of information technology. Management issues may include: the strategic use of information technology; information technology architectures; information systems planning; information technology investments; and security and privacy and outsourcing.
    Supply Chain and Logistics Management: the concept of supply chain management in the context of movement and storage of components and goods in the spheres of material management, physical distribution and transport and its practical business application.
    Organisation Change Management: organisational design; organisational changes processes and organisational development and change; and skills and competencies in the diagnostic processes for assessing the need for change and the development, implementation and evaluation of change strategies at all organisational levels.
    Enterprise E-Commerce: the integration of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems with E-Commerce and the issues involved.  Many large organisations have implemented Enterprise Resource Planning Systems to integrate their business processes.  These same organisations are now attempting to extend their supply chain via E-Commerce business solutions.
    Enterprise Resource Planning Systems Implementation:  the basic methodologies, techniques and tools that are used in the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems using SAP R/3 as an example.  Many large organisations are making decisions to implemented Enterprise Resource Planning Systems but the implementation is complex and requires specific project management skills and knowledge.
    Strategic Use of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems:  the strategic features of ERP systems and how these features can be utilised within an implementation.  Many large organisations have implemented Enterprise Resource Planning Systems to integrate their business processes and are now attempting to gain further benefits by utilising the strategic features of these systems such as supply chain optimisation, customer relationship management, and data warehousing.

    I did my masters in just computer sciences, but if I had something like this available I would have gone for it. But there are a couple of factors to consider. One is will there be good campus recruitments and what is the rate absorption of candidates for this course. Second question, do I really want to persue this field as my career. ERP is the concept that revolves around the business. So you should have an aptitude for learning how a business operates and functions.
    The course curriculum looks good particularly because it includes topics on Supply Chain Management and Business Process Engineering which are relatively new.
    Another good aspect of it is that it is giving this course with SAP as an example tool. SAP is the leading ERP software company(and many more products are added to its portifolio now).
    Is it worth the money? That you have to decide. You can do a regular masters in computer science, but get a job in a company that trains you in SAP, and learn everything on the job or take some traning from SAP training academies and then start on job. That is one option. But if you want to persue a career in building products in the ERP/SCM areas, then a formal education in that area will be useful. But if you are just interested in implementing existing products then it is not a must.
    Hope I gave you some information that is useful. Please don't forget to reward appropriately for helpful answers and close when completely answered.

  • IPad or Mac? which is better worth the money?

    iPad or Mac? which one is better worth the money, if mac, which is the cheapest but still gives you all the good apps and qualities? I would use it alot, and i already have an iouch so would the ipad be worth it? im a teenager so i would use these things alot,and i need some features to help with school and just having fun!!

    iPad is not a substitute for a Mac. It's more like a companion to a Mac.
    In desktops, Mac mini should be sufficient and is the only comparable Mac in terms of price, but you need to add a monitor, keyboard.
    In laptops, consider the MacBook Air for its portability, and the MacBook Pro for more options in terms of processing and screen size.
    Visit an Apple Store (the physical kind). The staff is very helpful and will assist ou in making a decision.

  • I've tried the new iWork and feel cheated. I'm gonna stick with my old '09 version. It appears to have lost utility, and is now easily surpassed by Word 07. Is a new version that's worth the money and hype coming?

    I've tried the new iWork (on a friend's new MacBook Pro) and feel very disappointed. I'm gonna stick with my old '09 version. It appears to have lost utility, and is now easily surpassed by Word 07. Dear Apple, from a veteran user: In your rush to market, you have dropped the basket on this one! Is a new version that's worth the money and hype coming?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    A lot of users have complained about the lack of features of the new iWork version. However, I'm sure Apple will add features with more updates in the future, like with Final Cut Pro X. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Until then, you can carry on using iWork '09, or try Microsoft Office 2011 or even LibreOffice, which is free and open-source

  • MOVED: HDTV Tuner Cards? Is there one that it is worth the money?

    This topic has been moved to Anything Under The Sun.
    HDTV Tuner Cards? Is there one that it is worth the money?

    All Adobe Trial versions are full versions that allows you do everything with it including you also get updates for it.  The only limitation is TIME.  you only get 30 days to do whatever you want to do so if you are a photographer then you will need to buy the full version if you want to continue doing what you like doing most.  Amazon has the best price/deal I have seen so far.
    Good luck.

  • Im looking for a MacBook that is worth the money and decent for gaming and editing, any suggestions?

    Im looking for a MacBook that is worth the money and decent for gaming and editing, any suggestions?
    There all so AWESOME!

    Then you are best to get a Macbook Pro. Your real aim should be the graphics card.
    You won't be doing really good gaming on a discrete graphics card sharing RAM.
    Depending of coarse what games you play.
    eg. card games / COD games.

  • Is Apple TV worth the Money?

    Is Apple TV worth the Money?

    That depends entirely on what you want to use it for.
    What do you think it does, and what do you want it to do?
    I'd say categorically yes - because we use it a lot - someone else might be disappointed if it doesn't provide the features they expect.

  • Is Quicktime Pro worth the money?

    Like my subject says, I am considering purchasing the serial to upgrade to Quicktime Pro 7 and just wondering if it is actually worth the money or if the normal Quicktime is good enough?
    thanks

    The Pro upgrade allows you to create content (start to finish) using QuickTime.
    Things like image sequence imports (think claymation), adding images and audio to video, converting file formats (iPod come to mind) and dozens of other uses.
    Nearly all of my "movies" are made using QuickTIme Pro and I've been a user (and buyer since version 3 was the first time they charged extra for it) for many years.
    Take a few minutes trying some of my video links:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war
    to learn the power and versatility found in the Pro upgrade.

  • Is a Macbook Pro worth the money?

    Hi, I am going to get a MBP by the end of this year and I want 1 TB but I see for the retina display models there is no option... I have an iMac and would be interested in a Macbook Pro

    Correct, the retina display models do not have a HD they have flash storage. Read the specifications http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/
    As to whether or not the Macbook pro is worth the money, I guess only you can decide. I like mine.

  • Is an external battery worth the money?

    I'm looking at about a 20 hour flight to New Zealand. Is an external battery worth the money and does anyone know which one would be the best?

    Honestly, from my understanding most international flights have plug in underneath the seats.  You may consider asking the airline if this is an available amenity on your flight.  It may save you the cost of an additional accessory.

  • My friend is selling her ipod nano for 80$ Is it worth the money?

    My friend is selling her ipod nano for 80$ Is it worth the money? What are the pros and cons? Thanks. No scratches

    Hello Chibi_usa,
    What kind of ipod nano is it and how many GB?  Do a search in google or yahoo or ask and see what others are selling for. Do a comparison analysis. You can find your own pros and cons after doing this.
    Things that I look for:
    1. The model I want
    2. If it works
    3. If it has warranty
    If that iPod fits that criteria, then it may be worth it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Has anyone tried REAL VNC client for Mac OSX? Is it worth the money?

    Has anyone tried REAL VNC client for Mac OSX? Is it worth the money?

    you should not be getting that many crashes and unlike others here i don't see any strong reason to go to 7.2 other than to get to 7.2.1. i very strongly suspect you have dodgy AU's (probably around 218 of them) and if you have a look at your crash log it should show you why you are crashing. if you see an AU in the crash log it is telling you it is causing headaches. my guess is that upgrading is not going to solve your problems.
    just so you know, if everything is running as it should be logic will hardly ever crash. post up the crashed thread from your crash log next time it happens. also make sure that you have the proapp kit latest version.
    i know its deeply frustrating when things are going pear shaped. everyone but everyone feels that the stupid thing should just work and gets the over-whelming feeling that apple is supposed to make products that just work, that we paid good money for that level reliability and if it's going to act like this we might just as well have stayed with cheaper PC's. reality is, once you start throwing thrid party's into the mix it is really hard to keep control of reliabillity. if you took logic back to zero 3rd party plugs and in built audio, it would take fanatical fundamentalist to crash the thing. (having said that - i reckon i could)

  • I'm debating to buy a touch, but is it worth the money?

    basically, i have a 2nd gen nano that it really time for an upgrade (i love it, but its slowly dying) i'm debating whether to get a touch, as my family share a classic already, but i'm not sure its worth the money, as i'd buy the 32gb and 8gb isn't really enough for me.. any thoughts?

    The advantages of an iPod Touch is that you can set it up to sync contacts, calendars and mail via wireless. The App Store has a huge number of applications which includes a large number of games, utilities for extending the capabilities of the iPod Touch such as wireless disk access, to do lists etc. There are many other categories of apps such as Educational, Reference, Navigation, Sports and News to name a few too. Many apps are free to download and use. The built in camera is good for catching those moments where going to fetch a camera may cause you to miss the moment you wanted to capture.
    I would say it is worth the money but only if you can see value in the above features.
    Hope this helps

  • My Droid Razr Maxx froze last night. It is not worth the money.

    This is my 2nd Droid since June. The first I had for 2 weeks and the battery was draining in less than 24 hours. This one I got in the 3rd week of June. I bought it because I wanted a good phone camera - I rarely use data, it is used mainly for calls and texting . I DID send a pic to Facebook last weekend, and could not log out of Facebook. This might be the cause of following freezing, don't know). The screen started going crazy occasionally after having it a month. It does the same thing other people have posted - opens apps, opens text messages and types, has made calls, etc. It has also frozen. Last night it froze on me. I tried turning it off and the screen went blank. The battery was not low, but I plugged it in anyway - it didn't show that it was charging so I unplugged it and hoped it would be ok in the morning. Sometime in the night it beeped indicating I had a text. It did it again around 6:30 a.m.. When I got up, it still had the blank screen and the message light was flashing. I couldn't get a screen. I plugged it in to charge it and after app. 15 minutes my screen came up but it was still frozen. I've had two phone calls I couldn't answer. After app. an hour the screen went blank again, and the red circling image indicating it's turning on started and has now been running for about 30 minutes. I no longer have a land line and am going to have to drive 27 miles to a store to get it fixed when I need to be preparing for the coming hurricane. I'm posting this as additional evidence that something is wrong with these phones, and they are not worth the money.

      When the RAZR/ RAZR MAXX freezes, you can hold down both the Power and the Volume Down button at the same time for about 7-10 seconds, until it flashes. This is what is called a "Soft Reset". You will not lose anything because of this reset.  As far as your battery time, 24 hours between charges might be considered good. It all depends on what apps you have installed, the location and signal of the towers for coverage, etc. I take mine off the charger around 5:00 AM, and when I go to bed at 10:00 PM, I am usually between 30-60%, depending on my usage during the day.
