Need Expert Opinion on what 2.0 Card to buy

I need a recommendation for a 2.0 USB Internal Card for my PowerMac G4 Dual 800, Tiger.
When you get down to the details of some manuals of some of these cards they don't support Mac/Tiger. i.e. Belkin 5 Port
I would like a card with more than 2 ports.
Thank You, Tom

I'll second that recommendation. The Belkin 5-port PCI card has been in use on my desktop box for about a year now. No problems with Windows, and Linux is quite happy with it too.
One thing to note: the 5 ports are not all accessible from the outside. This is actually 4 ports on the outside, with one on the inside of the computer. I have a drive mounted memory card reader that uses the internal USB port on this card, but you can get drive mounted USB hubs that use it too.

Need experts opinion... Should I use smcFanControl?

I've recently purchased a MacBook Pro 13" with an i7 processor and 8GB of RAM and have been watching flash player videos on the internet and playing pretty basic games that use programs such as Java and have experienced temps topping at 101 degrees Celsius. I'm not an expert with laptops, but I have done a TON and I mean HOURS of reading online for the past several days and have read posts where people have encouraged the use of smcFanControl when needed and read the opposite side where people say to not mess with it and trust in Apple's engineering. From my basic understanding, it seems like more acceptable temperatures should be around 80-90 degrees Celsius for these tasks. Am I correct in this thinking to protect my laptop? This is my 1st laptop and I want to make sure I can make it last as long as possible, so what's the truth? Should I use smcFanControl just when I plan to play games or watch flash player videos? If you've used smcFanControl for years, please speak up along with anyone else who knows a lot on this issue. Thanks!!

Now first i have to parse this xml ..then my java program is going to accept value from user ..and depending on user specified value i've to use either ATO or FIX fields...e.g if user value is 35 then my program should use fields within ATO node.
You will read the XML structure into some kind of memory model. When the user supplies a value you will search for a matching value (likely from a collection such as a map or list) and return the value in that object that you locate.
what should be done for this ..
See above.
and what if i change values in my xml file..will i have to restart my application to load xml again ?
If you change the file on the filesystem, you should simply be able to re-parse the XML file and update your in-memory model. If you instead update your in memory-model, you can serialize the model back to XML on the filesystem. Neither needs to necessarily have anything to do with application start-up (other than the fact that you would normally read in the XML model then, but updating is a separate concern, as would re-reading it).

Need expert opinion

hi experts,
we are going to setup Oracle RAC of 4 nodes using IBM P-series servers with IBM SAN DS-4800. the space is minimum 3 TB. now what I want is to implement ASM Volumes and OCFS for Database Files, FlashBack and OCR, Voting Disk respectively. now what I'm planning is to make
(ASM) 2 Volumes with Normal Redundancy for Database Files and
(ASM) 1 Volume for FlashBack with External Redundancy and
(OCFS) 1 Volume for OCR and Voting Disk with External Redundancy.
Now plz guide me whether you think its an optimal solution or not? I would appreciate all kind of suggestions and recomendations.

I would insist on these disks being striped and mirrored on the storage array/network and be given to the o/s as the largest possible LUNs.
On the o/s side, I would partition one of these into 2 partitions. One for OCFS2. The remaining partition for ASM. The other LUNs all ASM volumes.
The OCFS partition need not be large. The voting and registry files are small. But having a clustered file system is very useful (think Oracle database directories being available on all nodes, common set of scripts and files available on all nodes, etc).
In ASM, the LUN disks (raw devices or multipath devices if not using the ASMLib kernel module) will be defined as one or more disk groups with external redundancy.
I would not bother managing the LUNs as separate disk groups and trying to spread and balance I/O by creating some datafile one one disk group and others on the other disk groups on the RDBMS side. ASM does all that for you.
Also, actual I/O bandwidth is a primary factor of the HBAs - and the size and number of I/O pipes to the storage device. It does not make sense wanting to manage those aspects at RDBMS level.

Need Expert Opinion on 3D LED TVs

Hi, I'm a movie critic for a local magazine in the city. My new assignment is to critique about 50 movies in a two week period, all 3D movies. I've heard about the amount of strain on the eyes from long sessions. Are there any 3D LED TV's that cause little to no strain on the eyes?

theres a bit of misinformation here. In the traditional sense, yes, the Cinema 3D TV's are technically Full HD (1080p resolution), but you are still only seeing 540 lines of resolution for each eye. Yes, all of the pixels are active simultaneously, but the image you are seeing for each eye doesn't even meet "Enhanced Definition" standards, let alone HD standards. Active shutter 3D, on the other hand, Outputs 1080p Resolution to each eye. Active shutter technology gives a significant improvement to the image detail.
The only benefit of passive shutter 3D technology is the cost of the glasses. When compared to a Plasma TV however, which are not only cheaper, but provide better 3d performance (Active Shutter, less crosstalk, no motion issues, better PQ, higher resolution, etc.), you'll find that it's a much better deal. You'll probably even save money, and end up with greater performance for both 2D and 3D.
As a movie critic, I assume you need to be giving people the best/most accurate review possible. This means moving up to a larger size television (55" at the very smallest), and picking up a set with at least decent quality. I've watched 3D on 90% of the 2012 3D televisions on the market, and you'll find that some of it comes down to personal preference and changing settings within the television to adjust comfort level. When it comes to 3D, larger is better, and you will find your self wishing you picked up a larger TV. (With a 65VT30, I still find myself edging the couch much closer to the TV)
Quick question, are these reviews focused more on the movie content? or picture quality/3D quality? The answer to those questions will give the best indication on which TV is the best option for you.
Out of all of the TV's I've watched, I've found the Panasonic plasma TV's to have the least amount of fatigue (aside from the inferior passive shutter LG LED TV's). You can reduce fatigue even further by making adjustments to the 3D depth. Active shutter LED TV's will be slightly more fatiguing due to flicker and motion judder (with the exception of top of the line models from Samsung or Sony). Samsung plasmas are slightly more fatiguing than the panasonics, but the difference is subtle. My TV recommendation would be a Panasonic 60ST30, which has one of the best price/performance ratios of any 2012 TV. If you insist on getting an LED TV, I would recommend a UN60D8000, which will give you the best 3D performance (on par with or greater than plasma 3D performance), but you'll find yourself in a much higher price bracket (money better spent towards a PN64D8000 or 65GT30/VT30 plasma TV).
Again, some of what I've said is subjective, but i've given my opinion. If you can narrow it down to a couple of models, then head into your local best buy and pick your favorite.

I REALLY need expert opinion with my mac/fcp shopping list!

I work in TV and I'm buying an hdr sr12 so that i can work on my own projects, move my skills along etc...
To edit the footage I'm thinking to buy a 15" 1st generation macbook pro and fcp studio 2??? is this what i need? could i get away with spending less and getting different versions of either? - Any advice is a huge help. It's taken me weeks to get this far.
Cheers Dan

will i get away with a powerbook g4 and an older version of fcp to edit the hd footage?
It depends on the flavor of HD and which version of FCP you have. For example, FCP HD (version 4.5) only works with one flavor of HD: DVCPro HD. If you're working with HDV, you'll need FCP 5 or higher. For AVCHD, you'll need FCP 6 and an IntelMac. Other HD incarnations have their own requirements.

Need experts opinion on AS2 troubleshooting

In two separate instances with partners i configured File sender channel with AS2 reciever.
Getting three different errors as below:
First customer : I get "Delivered" but in Technical message "Validated-synchronous;Negative MDN Reason: MDN Disposition Modifier-Extension is error-Decryption failed"
Second customer : I get "Delivering" and later time out.
What can be different causes for these two types of errors. ?
Regards.
Aditya Sharma.

Hi Aditya,
A negative MDN does not necessarily mean a technical problem. Check with your AS2 partner why your message has been rejected.
A time out means that you cannot reach you AS2 partner on time.
Check your connection to that partner and try again. Perhaps a simple ping from the SAP PI machine could already give you an idea.
Kind regards,
Dimitri

JDK1.3 and Netmeeting Not compatible?? Need expert opinion! Thanks!! :)

Hi Everyone!! :)
I have researched this topic and have not been able to find a decent answer yet. So I'm asking the experts now!! :)
I have a java application written and compiled in jdk1.3. When a user runs this application remotely through netmeeting, they only get an intial gray frame, but nothing shows up on it. The menus and other GUI stuff ARE usuable, just not visible to the user. NOTE- if watching from the computer where the application is actually run from, everything initializes just fine. I've read that this is a problem in general with jdk1.3. Has anyone had any success with jdk1.4 and Netmeeting? Or does anyone know of a way to get to force jdk1.3 to work with netmeeting?? The later of the two would be preferable due to compatiblity issues with other programs and jdk1.4...
If I find something useful myself, I'll post it, but right now I've hit a dead end. ANY ideas would be great! ;)
Thank You!!
Katie

Sounds odd...I'm sure that the same technology used in Netmeeting was used in Remote client access...and I can run my applets thru Remove access with no problems. I usually find problems like this are related to a graphics problem...like colors too high, resolution too high, or the video acceleration is too high.

I need some suggestions on what type of dock to buy for my iPod Touch 4 that would be combatable with it.

I use to have a JBL dock for my iPod Touch 4 but it no longer works with it. I seem to be having some problems finding a dock that would work with a iPod Touch 4. All I want is a good dock with stereo sound and that is chargable and would also have an adaptor so I won't have to use batteries but one with batteries will do if that's all I can find. I don't need one that has a radio and a clock with it. One that probably doesn't go over 100.00. Would like some suggestions from anyone please? Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. I have finally found a definitive answer on the Microsoft website (after a few days of virtual digging).

And I quote for the benefit of everyone else looking for the same answers:
"While RDS is shipped with Windows Server software, it is licensed separately through a Client Access License (CAL) model. This means that each accessing end point (i.e., a User or a Device) must be covered by an RDS license to access Microsoft VDI infrastructure.
And this CAL is an additive CAL, which means that in addition to a Windows Server CAL, customers must acquire a Windows Server RDS CAL for each user or device that:
- Directly or indirectly accesses any of the RDS product functionality, and/or
- Directly or indirectly interacts with the graphical user interface of the server software using RDS functionality or other third-party technology
For example, to access RDS functionality in Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012 CALs and Windows Server 2012 RDS CALs are required along with the server software licenses."

I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.

Hello.
I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.
I have a procedure (which i cannot import or re-create in OWB due to the bug), so i am trying to create a map instead :-(
How can i create a cursors within the map?
My function creates table and cursor.
Then it will have to check for duplicates in the tables (the one created and another table) - the criteria for finding duplicates is a number of fields.I then need to place few different conditions (if some attributes are not available) and it has to load cursor based on this conditions. The next step is to fetch the data into the cursor based on what attributes are missing.
The next thing it will do is insert the data into table (if record doesn't exist), output the error in separate table is record is corrupted, or update the record with changed information.
In short i need to re-create match / merge but with conditions, iterations etc 'built into' it.
I can read up on available functions - it's just what would be the best options? and what would be the best approach to do so?
In my function i use %rowtype - but cannot use it in owb - so what would be the alternative? i don't really want to create a lot of variables and then have a nightmare of maintaing it. are there any tips regarding this?
having looked through Oracle dedupe - it's not really what i need because it is just DISTINCT.
I would appreciate any help / advise on this.
Thank you very much

thanks a lot for your reply - i will look into this option :-)
it is a bit more complicated now as i have to re-create the match / merge and then somehow 'tweak' it to achieve the result i need.
At the moment i am looking to breakdown the package into smaller chunks 'functions' and try creating the map that way.
Anyway, thank you very much for your suggestion.

Need the opinion of experts: N85 with Bluetooth pr...

Really need the opinion of experts on this one.
My N85 was swapped after the complaint that the Music Library Menu opened automatically after pairing with bluetooth of the car (permanent failure). Another complaint was that video recording was defective (intermittent failure). Also, Nokia detected great consumption of battery.
My question is: the swap came back the same relating to the bluetooth problem.. Is this a case of bad repair or a case of low knowledge...? I'm wondering if the Music Library Menu is to open when pairing with car bluetooth (strangely)....

The Dell Precision 380 has 3 PCIe slots: a x16 (for video cards), a x1,
and a x4. I'm sure there are other PCs on the market with
multiple PCIe slots.
Alternatively, the PCIe-8362 has TWO cabled PCI Express links. So
you only need one slot in your host PC. This may not be the best
solution, however, if bandwidth is your primary concern. With one
8362 connected to two chassis, the total maximum throughput is 160
MB/s. With two 8361s (each connected to a different chassis), the
total maximum throughput is 220 MB/s (110 MB/s on each).
Finally, keep in mind that the PXI chassis in your system are still
running at PCI speeds (132 MB/s). Plus, this bandwidth is shared
across all devices in the system. So the MXI Express connection
to the chassis may not be the bottleneck in the system.
Good luck!

What kind of card do i need, and how easy is it to install?

I bought an airport base station, and found that my 2004 ibook G4 cannot go wireless. I called apple, and they said to buy a card on ebay and installing it won't be too hard. I'd rather do this than buy a new computer, as i just bought tiger. What kind of card do i need and how do i install it? thanks.
ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

You will need the original Airport card and not an Airport Extreme card.
That is incorrect. The iBook G4 requires the AirPort Extreme card.

Trying to buy a greeting card i've designed in iphoto and have it shipped to a Canada address but only UK shipping is option. First time i've ever attempted this. What do I need to do so I can send card to desired address in Canada?

There seems theres no solution. Rang Apple telephone support and because the billing address is UK based the shipping address must be to. Ridiculous!

How can I record what the sound card is outputting?

I have an app. that I need to be able to capture what the
sound card is outputting. That is I want to record anything that plays
from the sound card. I don't want to
have to route the speaker out to the mic in. Is there a way to
"capture" the sound as it is being played?
Thanks
Bob

As I understand you would like to record the sound (wave, midi, others...) generated by a third party application without a cable loop between soundcard output and any soundcard input (mic, line, aux).
Have you already tried to set the record input on the recording control panel of Windows to stereo mix and to use any standard labview vi (eg: snd read waveform) for recording?
