Why don't they do the same for the bad logic board? It's obviously an issue; they might as well address it and make it easier for people that don't know why their computer is constantly turning off.

Good News for those of you with discoloration...

Apple recognizes, will repair discolored MacBooks
By Kasper Jade
Published: 11:00 AM EST
Apple Computer customers who've experienced premature discoloration on the casings of their glossy white MacBooks may finally see some restitution, AppleInsider has been told.
Click Here!
In an internal bulletin earlier this week, Apple for the first time acknowledged that a problem exists with some of its white 13-inch MacBook notebooks, where the casings of the computer may inexplicably turn shades of orange after very little usage.
"Some white MacBook computers may exhibit discoloration on the top case after some use," the company wrote in a note to its retail sector and service partners. "If this issue occurs [...] and the computer meets certain requirements, Apple will cover replacement of the affected parts under warranty."
In order to be eligible for the extended warranty repair, a customer's MacBook must have a serial number that falls within the range of 4H617XXXXXXXX to 4H627XXXXXXXX. The notebook must be irresponsive to approved cleaning solutions.
In replacing the top case -- the affected portion of the computer containing the palmrest area -- Apple will also replace the display bezel, people familiar with the repair process say.
The warranty extension is being made available to MacBook customers in all of Apple's major markets, including the United States, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific and Japan.
Customers afflicted by discolored MacBook syndrome should contact an Apple Care support representative by phone (1-800-800-2775 in US) or bring their computer to a local Apple retail store to arrange for diagnosis or repair.
Widespread reports of discoloration began appearing only weeks after Apple introduced the new Intel-based MacBook notebooks, which are available in both white and black (not affected). Since then, some customers have had success in getting their stained MacBooks replaced or repaired through a variety of avenues, while others have not.
It's still unclear precisely what causes the discoloration, however speculation on the Web suggests a bad batch of plastics may be to blame.

Why don't they do the same for the bad logic board? It's obviously an issue; they might as well address it and make it easier for people that don't know why their computer is constantly turning off.

GOOD NEWS FOR THE NANO!!!

"They claim current iPods can already play video (but this is disabled) which means an updated firmware might enable movie playback, something not infeasible given the power of the iPod hardware platform."
http://engadget.com/page/3 -- scroll down to "Think Secret thinks we'll see a video iPod Tomorrow" and read the update!!
This is good news for all those who may be regreting buying the nano. (I don't, it's flash-newer technology, hard drive skips)

Yeah,
Even though the screen on the Nano is small, I would still welcome video playback. I don't think copying full DVD's onto the Nano is practical given the storage size unless there is a way to compress video/DVD content to be loaded on to the Nano. You would be able to hold maybe 1 or 2 full DVD movies plus your music library. The new video iPod and regular iPods have much larger storage for things like full quality audio and video.
I welcome the ability to play Quick Time content, though.
Have a lot of video/movies in QT format and the sound would probably be great over headphones.
I do not regret buying a Nano, though. The Nano is an impressive piece of technology and still a good-looking device for playing any audio/video/image content.
I hope apple does release a firmware updater to recent iPods for video playback.
This would just make the Nano even more slicker device.

At last some good news for UK iPhone users

After the UK users seemingly getting a raw deal from from Apple as of late (no Atv price drop or movies etc), a report on Pocket lint informs us that our tariffs will be moving into line with their non iPhone tariffs in Feb. below is a copy but for more info check it out.
The three current tariffs for iPhone will be brought in line with the minute and text bundles offered on the new tariff structure.
iPhone customers on a £35 per month contract will get three times more minutes and more than double the number of texts than before.
The new £45 iPhone tariff gives the same amount of minutes and texts as the former £55 tariff so customers who were on the £55 tariff can either save £10 per month or take the new £75 tariff with 3000 minutes and 500 texts a month.
All iPhone customers will continue to receive "unlimited" data browsing and access to The Cloud's Wi-Fi hotspots.
Roll on Feb

This is indeed good news! Well done O2!
This is from the O2 iPhone 'Pay Monthly consumer airtime contract for iPhone (November 2007)'
5.15 You may move to another iPhone tariff at any time, provided that you may only change tariffs a maximum of once per month. Changing tariffs will not affect your Minimum Period. You will not be able to move to a general O2 Pay Monthly tariff. Where you have notified us you wish to move to an alternative iPhone tariff, unless we advise otherwise, your new tariff will commence at the start of your next billing cycle.
I hope to move from the old £45 > new £35 Tariff (£120 a year saving).
Would be good to hear of any experiences from other UK iPhone users attempting to do this or similar.

Time effort for Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer 1Z0-803

I have no previous knowledge in Java. My only programming skills is Oracle SQL (passed 1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals I).
What's the time effort for passing Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer 1Z0-803? From zero to exam? Hours?

Good News For K8N Neo Platinum Users!!!

Ok, after fiddling with my BIOS for almost 2 days now, and scanning the forums for a solution, I contacted MSI Technical Support in California, USA. They are sending me a new BIOS chip, free of charge, so anyone having a severe problem with BIOS revisions 1.8 and 1.9 on the K8N Neo Platinum (MS-7030) please give tech support a call, I let them know I would be posting this in the forum and they will be inandated with phone calls, but woohoo, they are sending a new chip pre-flashed with BIOS revision 1.7.
Please refer to this thread for the reasons why:BIOS v1.9 Is Terrible

What good news? UK based MSI did not offer any such replacement bios after my problems updating to 1.8 bios.
I purchased a new bios chip with 1.9 bios from a UK supplier.....after fitting the bios I returned to the same problems as before, failure to boot past post and freezing in bios menu. I then remembered another post on this sight and removed one stick of memory......everything back to normal .I have just fitted a 1gb Corsair cas 2 memory and all seems well I will save my 2X 512 Corsair XL my next project which will not be a MSI Motherboard
MSI UK have not come out of this very well and from the posts that I have read there are quite a few people out there with problems. Many thanks to all those who posted on this, it certainly helps to know that you are not the only one with problems.

Important News For Those Who Use Hulu And Other Flash Video Websites.

Adobe will release the next update to the Adobe Flash software in the next few weeks and that update will bring better GPU video decoding acceleration for Windows if you have recent graphics hardware from ATI, Nvidia, or Intel. This update is VERY important for those who use laptops which have less powerful processors and hardware than desktops usually do. In order to take advantage of this update when it comes out, you MUST have the latest graphics cards drivers for your hardware. ATI, Nvidia, and Intel will all be releasing new drivers specifically for the updated Flash software so keep an eye on the respective websites for your graphics hardware maker. Of those companies, only Intel and Nvidia have drivers available for testing at the moment, but ATI is not far behind.

You may be able to disable Flash entirely and just use HTML 5 video codecs to view the videos this is faster but you may lose access to some videos such as ones that have mandatory advertisements.

Good news for european agriculture...

... From now on, european cash cows will give even more milk than usual.
While Google and Nik have finally understood that there was no good reason to discriminate european users (as well as other customers in the world), Adobe continue to apply an exchange rate that defies common sense (even when taking VAT into account).

What would be a good way for me to practice Java...?

I have all the basics down. I can make text games decently well. I made a Pong game, and I followed a "do it yourself" tutorial that explains what needs to be done, but has you do it.
What should I do to further my Java skills? I'm not sure where to go from here. Networking seems too advanced. I don't feel too great at graphics either.
Any suggestions and pointers?
Thanks for any help.

I was just wondering if it was too advanced for someone of my level.Might be. I don't know your level.
But I'll give it a shot.Great.
Do you know of any good articles or tutorials on
relational databases? I've found some on Google, but
I'm not too sure of their quality...If you don't know anything, what difference does it make? Try a few and see how they go.
A good place to start might be the Sun JDBC tutorial. It won't teach you much about databases, but it has the virtue of being simple. Google for it.

Good news for Nokia and the N8

Extract from a review of 2010 which isn't that kind to Nokia in parts but does include this -
"The year drew to a close with the launch of Windows Phone 7, complete with an Office hub and Exchange readiness, to great fanfare and much TV advertising. Unfortunately for Microsoft the market reaction was distinctly "meh", with many retailers finding the mobile devices hard to shift, and only a rumored 40,000 sold in the first day. That might seem like a large number, but early indications are that Nokia's N8 running Symbian^3 is outselling Windows Phone 7 devices by a margin of 3 to 1."
Enterprise Mobile
And it looks like us N8 users have good things to look forward to in 2011 ....
Top of O’Hara’s agenda is for Nokia to steal back some of the high end.
“In the first half of 2011, you will see us become serious competitors with the N8, C7 and C3 smartphones. Maps, music, social networking and location-based services will all become more prevalent this year and we will be at the forefront of all of them.”

It wasn't a QT update. If you install the P2CMS software, it adds a component that allows you to read the MXF files. It was a happy discovery that I found when someone else posted how they were able to see the MXF files in QT and import them directly (without the Log and Capture) but were miffed that they had to sync audio later. I told them that they imported incorrectly, but was amazed that suddenly the Mac saw the MXF files.
Still better to import the proper way..this way audio and video are tied as one file.

Some possible good news for MacBook Pro Core Duo owners....

All,
I believe I am now running 2.4GHz 802.11N on my MacBook Pro Core Duo.
I have a Belkin F5D8071 ExpressCard installed.
I also have the new Airport Extreme.
Before I got the AE, I tried to run the 802.11N enabler with the Belkin card installed. No go. The enabler said my hardware didn't meet the minimum requirements.
But, I received my AE yesterday and installed the Airport Utility on the MacBookPro while the Belkin card was plugged into the ExpressCard slot.
As I was watching the installation, I noticed that the enabler installed!!!
So I switched the AE to N only 2.4GHz (Belkin support has no mention of support for 5GHz N for the F5D8071). And my MBP joined the network!
So I investigated some more. I opened Network Utility and it said my link speed was now 144Mbps. And the MAC address began with 00 17 3F. That is registered to Belkin. The Belkin card was active! But I saw no power light on the Belkin card. So I went into IORegistryExplorer and found the entry for the ExpressCard, it said the IOVendor was Apple. So what I THINK is happening is the Apple Driver is now recognizing the Belkin card and the driver just doesn't know how to drive the lights on the card. But it does recognize the chipset on the Belkin card. Which Belkin says the chip is made by Airgo.
I ran a quick speed test by copying a 1GB file from a wired PowerBook to the MBP. It only took 12 minutes to copy!!! Sweet!!! I have "N" speeds on a Core Duo MacBook Pro.
Now one limitation is the Belkin card does not support 5GHz. But there is hope for CD MPB owners. Hope this helps others.

I have a February (very early) MacBook Pro Duo. I bought the Belkin F5D8071 card, plugged it in and installed the Airport Extreme software including the system 802.11N enabler. I set the AE to the 802.11N only mode and it does not work! Any suggestions? I would think that Belkin will eventually come out with their own soft ware patch for OSX. Thanks.

Good News for Window User DVD to IPOD

you need to use dvd decrypter then videora ipod converter.
these step will bring down from 4g movie to around 700mb. when you using videora ipod converter make sure the audio check with channel 6.
then if you want to compress more then you need to buy quick time pro. these step will compress the file to around 350mb all these step will take around 10 hrs. good luck.
it took me almost a week to find out so please anyone know another way faster please post it.

PSPware works good and very fast, u just have to uncheck the sync box, then choose the video you want to convert and pspware will do a full dvd in under an hour.

O.T. Good News For For Minolta Owners

From various website reports this weekend it seems that support for all Minolta products will still be available - either through Sony,or in the U.K.,through the former Minolta distributors.

Why this driver installation/updating is such a big issue for someones. I have installed
all possible drivers to my OEM Audigy 2. At the moment, I'm using Audigy 2 Zs software,
Audigy 4 WDM drivers and E-MU bundled ASIO drivers. Everything been installed without
pain and even I've never uninstalled anything before installing new ones. Sometimes you
need to install drivers and software separately, drivers fist.
Creative drivers (seems to be even for SB0220 OEM)can be found @
http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/companies/258.htm (SEARCH PAGE FOR '0220' and look for
the right OS you are using (eg. XP, W2000, ...))
