More about Buying then Using...

I really want an mac mini, but there danm expensive in the UK ($622 for 40GB).
But, i just found out that the 80GB mini on the US Apple site is £10 cheaper then the 40GB mac mini on the UK site...
weird huh?
You think apple would still give me free shipping for across the atlantic, haha.
Anyway i think i have my currency conversitions all right. Just to let you all know..
PS. I wanted to buy my dad a Mighty Mouse for a christmas present and one shop in manchester UK were selling them for £60($104)!!!!!
Thats over the top!
mac mini   Windows XP Pro   cant afford a Mac. sob...

As you can see above I'm using both of them. Maybe there's a better/easier way? I'm receptive to it if you have ideas, but this is working quite well and allows me to have just one member which may be any of the 17 actual classes behind it.
I think that's pretty much the general approach as far as "item.GetType Is GetType(itemInterfaceType)" is concerned.  I typically set up the comparisons using Select Case but that is a trivial difference.
As far as the enum goes, keep in mind that IEnumerable.TypeOf will let you get just the items of a particular type from a collection.  If you're doing mostly LINQ collection manipulation anyway then you may not need the enumeration.  Methods which
could use the enumeration information could be implemented as generic methods with an IExpenseType generic parameter constraint.  This may actually be preferable to the enum in cases where you want to return a strongly typed result value from the method.

  • Question about buying a used 3rd or 4th gen ipod touch.

    I'd like to purchase a used iPod Touch for my child. I need capability to download/play songs from iTunes, download apps like games, and text message. Would a 3rd gen work? What should I consider when deciding between a 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation? This is for a 10year old so I really don't want to buy anything new or fancy or spend too much $$. Thank you!

    - I would not get a 2G. They can only go to iOS 4.2.1 and very many apps need a higher iOS.
    - A 3G can ony go to 5.1.1 and now oy a few app require a higher iOS
    If you get a 3G, make sure it is realy a 3G and not a 2G. They look alike
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    - A 4G can go to the current 6.1.3 but it will not go to iOS 7.

  • Is it legal to buy a used laptop with Adobe software on it?

    I'm thinking about buying a used laptop with Adobe CS5 Master Collection on it.
    Would I be able to use this software if I wasn't the original purchaser?
    How does licensing work in a situation like this?

    Hi Darryl,
    Provided it isn't an Education version (which are non-transferrable with Adobe), plus if you meet the other criteria for a license transfer, then it could be possible to legally do it.

  • Best way to buy a used iPhone 3Gs?

    I lost my iPhone on a New York City bus today and I doubt there's any chance I'll be getting it back   I belong to AT&T and unfortunately my contract isn't eligible for renewal and won't be for another year.  I don't want to pay full price for a new 3Gs or a 4G, so I am thinking about buying a used phone to last me for another year, until I can renew my contract and get a new phone. Does anyone have any tips or advice about where to buy a used iPhone and what to lookout for? I'm a little bit nervous about buying from Craigslist or Ebay, but it seems like these sites may be my best option.

    Craigslist. There are always pretty cheap phones there and some people take care of their stuff really well

  • If I buy a used iPhone, will I be entitled to remaining warranty?

    Hi, I am thinking about buying a used iPhone 5s. The seller states that the phone will be supplied with at least 4 months Apple warranty. Can someone please confirm that Apple warranties can be passed on when selling Apple devices.

    if you are buying from ebay in UK ,it is a world class service in stolen, etc, iPhones
    eBay is world-class in stolen iPhones everywhere, not just in the UK, and the leader in sellers making other bald-face lies about the status of an iPhone. In addition, many people report having a high amount of difficulty getting eBay to help obtaining a refund in such a case. I would never, never buy any iOS device from an eBay seller. But it's marginally safer than buying an iPhone from a CraigsList seller or some other ad service.

  • Buying a used Thinkpad - Warranty Queries

    I'm thinking about buying a used x60s thinkpad. While the laptop was purchased earlier this year (according to the sales reciept), an online check on the type/serial no. indicates that the warranty began in 2007.
    Can I confirm that:
     1. The warranty follows the machine rather than the owner (i.e. someone who purchases a thinkpad second hand will benefit from the warranty); and
    2. Lenovo will regard the date on the sales receipt as the beginning of the limited warranty (as the following document suggests: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-62780).
    Assuming that both 1 and 2 are true, how would I go about having the "new" start date reflected on the online lookup? I don't want this to be an issue in 2 years when i've lost the receipt.
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the forum!
    The warranty follows the machine, not the owner, but in certain countries you are asked to provide a bill of sale in order to excersize the warranty.
    Warranty begins with the date that unit was shipped to the original customer. If the product had been sold with a three year warranty, it will end in 2010 regardless whether the machine is still owned by the original customer or not.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

    I've installed Photoshop Elements 12 from a CD onto my PC laptop. I'm thinking about buying a tablet, so was wondering if (a) can I install on a 2nd device (b) can I use the serial number online as I won't beable to install from a CD, and (c) will I beable to choose a mac, after the initial was on a PC???? Thanks Martin

    A single user license allows for having activated installations on two machines. An Elements license allows for either platform in many cases (recently not the case from what I've seen).  If you have the disc, see if it contains the Mac installation files... if it does then you should be able to install them via a download as well.  I cannot answer with certainty for the last question since it relies on the previous question.  Personally, I would not let an inexpensive piece of software dictate an expensive hardware purchase decision.

  • Wanting to know more about using my iphone to skype

  • I used an apple account of a friend to download apps to my iphone, the account then closed, now when i tried to update apps i download it from my account or i buy it using my account, its says that i have to put the password of my friend account

    i used an apple account of a friend to download apps to my iphone, the account then closed, now when i tried to update apps i download it from my account or i buy it using my account, its says that i have to put the password of my friend account, and if i want to update any app i downloaded or buy from my i have to delete it and download it again.
    what can i do??

    As far as I know you should be prompted for the password for an account that 'owns' one of the apps that requires updating.
    If all of the apps with updates are linked to your account and that is the account that is now logged in, then you could try a reset and see if that helps : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is it possible to buy an iPhone 4s unlocked in the US, and then use it normally and completely in France with Freemobile ?

    Is it possible to buy an iPhone 4s unlocked in the US, and then use it normally and completely into France with Freemobile (which provides micro-SIM) ?
    I'm travelling to NYC tomorrow and that would be 100€ less than in France...

    Thank you for the quick answer
    Do you mean that I can't reserve and pick up my phone in the local apple store as it's explained on the site (http://www.apple.com/retail/iphone/) ?
    What about the social security number asked in the formulary ? I've got a French one...

  • For some reason, I can not delete bookmarks. I did one at a time, then tried 5 or 6 and it worked once then no more. I then tried 1 at a time and it worked once the no more. This is a brand new computer (Win7) and FF just loaded about 3 hours ago.

    # Question
    For some reason, I can not delete bookmarks. I did one at a time, then tried 5 or 6 and it worked once then no more. I then tried 1 at a time and it worked once the no more. Why is this happening? This is a brand new computer (Win7) and FF just loaded about 3 hours ago. Do not know how the bookmarks even got in there. Some were ok, but no order and some that were never bookmarks. Looks like FF tried to import some BM's from the Virtual XP installed, but did not get it any where near right. I need to completely delete all of them and install from a saved .html file.

    Well, I did not see the exact problem that I was having listed in the articles, BUT the problem is solved for now.
    I opened FF and the Bookmarks to Organize again. I deleted all of the folders and entries, ONE AT A TIME, AND IT WORKED. Evidently, for what ever reason, FF did not like "Batch" deletes of ANY amount greater than 1 and the HANG UP would occur.
    Deleting one at a time then importing the good .html from a good file, loaded the wanted Bookmarks. Yea

  • Why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

    This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
    Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
    For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
    Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

  • I want to know more about the Sanapshot tool. What is its purpose? how do I use it?

    I want to know more about the Sanapshot tool. What is its purpose? how do I use it? I have searched Firefox Help, but did not find a clear answer.

    That is not part of Firefox. It is either an add-on for Firefox which you installed, or it is a separate program you have.
    Also, is '''Sanapshot tool''' the correct name? Or did you mean '''''Snapshot'''''?
