Need help selecting the right MBP for me, just bought a pc with Windows 8 and I already regret it..

Ok, so I'm an engineering student and I am in need of a good laptop to run programming and design type software. I have an older iMac which I love but I need the portability of a laptop for school. I was thinking I would be fine with a pc since most of the software I would be using for school is windows based. So last night, after shopping around for quite a bit, I decided to go with a Sony Vaio E series laptop with Windows 8, 8gb ram, i7 processor, dedicated graphics card, 1tb hard drive, and touch screen. It was the best performance laptop (on paper) Best Buy had in the store for just under $1000. I would have loved to get an upper end MBP but they are over twice the price as the Sony.. So I get it home with the Vaio and it feels laggy and glitchy, it takes 2 seconds for the window to pop up after 'right clicking', I can see lines in the screen, the resolution seems far from HD when on the normal looking windows side (as opposed to the tablet look, forgive my poor terminology) and the web browser, and the touch pad seems to be hit or miss in that it doesn't always register the touch pad commands. I checked all of the visual and performance settings, made the resolution as high as possible, changed some of the settings to the high performance settings, made sure all of my drivers were updated, and the only effect was a very loud fan that runs constantly.
So in short, I am going to take this back and start looking at the macbook pros. Here's my dilemna, I don't know which specs I will definitely need in a Macbook Pro. I need to be able to run windows on it either in parallel or as a partition for my programs necessary for school. Can the MBP run windows smoothly enough to run 3D design types of programs? If so, which one should I get? I love the size of the 13" MBP but it only has a dual core processor, instead of the quad core like the 15" MBP, I'm not sure if I definitely need the quad over the dual core. I would love a solid state MBP but they are out of my price range and not enough space if I end up partitioning it.
Sorry for the book, but school starts Monday and I need some direction to find out which one I need to get fairly quickly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at this MBP, a refurbished unit.  Don't let the late 2011 release date put you off.  For about  $500 less than an equivalent 'new' one with similar specifications you get a quad core CPU and excellent graphics.  As Steve359 mentioned, this can be upgraded if the need arises and has the same warranty as a 'new' one
I would not be surprised that these may actually be 'new' MBPs due to the length of time that they have been replaced by the current generation.  I purchased a 17" model about 5 weeks ago, and a serial number check suggests that it is 9 weeks old.

  • NEED HELP FINDING THE RIGHT APP FOR MY IPAD!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'M TRYING TO FIND A APP FOR MY IPAD THAT YOU CAN TYPE A LETTER OR PRESENTATION THEN CLICK PRINT AND IT WILL GO TO A WIRELESS PRINTER!!!!!!

    There are a large number of word processing programs available. A simple app store search in the productivity section will bring up a wide range, from Docs2Go to Pages and many in between. There are also simple text editors, such as Elements and others which are cheaper, but not as full featured.
    For printing, you need an HP printer that supports AirPrint. No special app on the iPad will allow you to print to any printer, just to those that are AirPrint enabled.
    Being on a PC, I don't know of any other printing options. If you have a Mac available, you can install Printopia, and print wirelessly to any printer your Mac can print to.

  • How to select the right JSP for a locale

    This may be a very stupid question but someone please help me out. I've
    looked at the JSP spec and the Weblogic documentation and even browsed the
    newsgroup and I still can't figure this out. Perhaps I'm just being dense
    (more than likely).
    What we want to do is support multiple locals from one server. My idea is
    that we'd write the JSP in English then hire translation companies to
    convert the JSP to French,German, Japanese, etc.(We've moved all the java
    code out of the JSPs using taglibs/java beans to make this easier). What
    we'd like to do is have all the languages on the server at once and based on
    the local of the client select the right JSP. We'd still like the URL to
    remain constant. What I can't seem to figure out is how to have one URL
    (like http:/www.myserver.com/example.JSP) and have the server select the
    right real JSP for the local (like example-en.JSP, example-fr.JSP, etc).
    I had hoped I could find a deployment descriptor (J2EE or Weblogic specific)
    directive that mapped a URL to a set of JSP based on locale but I don't see
    one.
    How does one make this happen or is the wrong way to do it". If it the
    "wrong way" what is the right way? Any links or example someone can point
    me to would be great.

    We use a Servlet "filter" (not the Servlet 2.3 sense, but a 2.2 servlet that
    does a RequestDispatch.forward())
    This filter selects the most appropriate JSP page (using a similar naming
    convention to the one you indicate), then server-side forwards to it. Works
    quite well.

    So has anybody come up with other solutions that work better. I was
    thinking about having a "main" jsp that all it did was check the local and
    then forward the request to the right internationalized jsp. So forexample
    I'd have the three files:
    someMain.jsp
    someMain-EN.jsp
    someMain-FR.jsp
    The main check the local and forwards to EN for English and FRfor French.
    etc.. Has anyone done anything like this? Is so what were the pros and
    cons?

    Completely Agree. Once you start using TAG's get Internationalized
    Strings
    tools
    are less useful.

    Kent,
    Most common way of doing this is having one jsp where All the
    Textual
    messages in the page are read from properties file based on Locale.

  • Need help finding the right codec to play QT files

    Like many others who have posted, all the quicktime files on my drive have turned to black. Previously when I opened the file, I saw picture and sound. Now every single file has only audio, but the picture is black.
    I am operation on Mac O.S. 10.4.11. I am using Quicktime Pro 7.5. I have been trying to fix this problem for a month now. Many people have suggested I need to find the right codec, but so far I have not found it. I have tried: A52codec.component, AC3codec, MacOS 8.x, 9.1.x, Apple Intermediate Codec.com, Apple MPEG2.codec.component, Avilmporter-r7.component, DivX Decoder.component, DivX Encoder.component, DivX Pro 6.8.0.19 + keymaker, EnsharpEncoderMacOsX.cmg, Fbx 20091quicktime_macemu.pkg.tar, Fbx QT.pkg, Flipsformac, WMV Advanced.component, Flipsformac WMV Advanced Exports.component, Flipsformac WMV Import.component, IMXCodec.component, LAAME Universal Installer.mpkg, LAAMEncoder.component, QSSP_2.1.dmg, QSXEssentials.component, QSXEssentials.dmg, QTFvx.component, Red Quicktime Codec v3.1.pkg, Red Code iedcod.qt.component, Spectrograph.component, TSCC.component xiphqt.component, XviD_codec-r58.component, XviDELEGATE.component
    Nothing worked!
    I also tried to install Perian. This did not work.
    What should I do? Should I re-install my operating system and start over? About a month ago, all the video clips played just fine. Is there any solution?
    Thanks

    Hi Wangerer!
    I haven't even heard of half of those! You may have reached overkill on codecs!
    Get rid of some of them and read this:
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, 3.1, 3.1.1, QT 7.3, 7.4.x and 7.5 and OS 10.4.11.
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.11 and have Quicktime 7.4 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 11 (which is no longer in beta) for Mac from:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2
    and then the latest version obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    and installed.
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS, but please see my footnote if you are running Leopard.)
    In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to and including 2008-004. (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And now there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash should be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards):
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    FOOTNOTE
    If you are running Leopard:
    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1

  • Need help identifying the application responsible for an insert...

    Hi,
    I'm a MSSQL guy and Oracle is still a bit mysterious to me.  I'm looking for some assistance tracking down the application in an environment which is responsible for particular inserts.
    For example, suppose I have 10 different programs running and inserting values to a DB.  I need to know which one of them inserts a "0" in a particular column.
    I found a trigger which will tell me the user, unfortunately these programs use a shared credential so that doesn't help me.... here's what I've got:
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER check_for_zero_insert
    AFTER INSERT
      ON DATA_TABLE_0001
      FOR EACH ROW
    DECLARE
      v_username varchar2(10);
    BEGIN
      -- Find username of person performing the INSERT into the table
      SELECT user INTO v_username
      FROM dual;
      -- Insert record into audit table
      INSERT INTO audit_table
      ( samplevalue
      sampletime,
      username )
      VALUES
      ( :sampletime,
      :samplevalue
       v_username );
    END;
    But again, username won't help me, I need the originating process if at all possible (either an executable name, PID, or something to identify the specific application on the other side.)

    use this in your trigger
    select sys_context('USERENV','OS_USER') ||'-' ||user  into v_username from dual;
    You might need to increase the v_username data type length.
    Thanks,
    GPU

  • Need help regarding the maximum limit for data type

    Hi,
    this is Sravan. for my application am inserting the bulk data in XML format into a column of Database table.
    the sample inserted XML data will be in format... like
    '<ACC count = "10">
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    <Acc ac_no = "1111111111" cn_nr = "US" eflag = "Y" />
    </ACC>'
    this data in XML can have more than 1000 accounts.
    now, i need to take a Parameter value from XML node and write into a file. for this i have written a procedure by looping the Nodes from XML data and building Dynamic Query like..
    if nvl(v_int, 0) > 0 then
    v_sql := '';
         for v_count in 1..v_int
         loop
         if v_sql is null then
              v_sql := 'select extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count ||'/@ac_no'')||extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count
    ||'/@cn_nr'')||extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count ||'/@eflag'') string from sample1';
         elsif v_sql is not null then
                   v_sql := v_sql || ' union all select extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count ||'/@ac_no'')||extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count
    ||'/@cn_nr'')||extractvalue(empdetails, ''/ACC/Acc' || v_count ||'/@eflag'') string from sample1';
              end if;
         end loop;
    end if;
    i will get this variable "v_int" from <ACC count = "10"> ACC count Attribute, here 10 is the value for v_int variable but in real time the variable value can be more than 1000.
    at the time of Building Dynamic Query I make using the Variable v_SQL which is of Data Type "Long",
    this variable stores dynamic query which is build at the time of executing procedure but this v_sql Variable is throughing Exception that ....
    "numeric or value error Character String Buffer is Too Small"... but Long Data type will store upto 2GB..
    this variable cant able to hold much data which is dynamically build.
    will you please help me to resolve this issue Or will u suggest me another method to pick the data from XML column.
    thanks,
    sravan.

  • I need help finding the right CS version, please

    Hi there! I've been on the phone on and off all day with adobe and apple support trying to figure out what to do...
    Hours later, still no concrete answer. I'm hoping someone out there can help me! Here's the situation:
    My laptop crashed; I bought a new iMac today; I tried to install CS2 into it, but to no avail. I was told by support that the new Snow Leopard (10.6.3) does not support CS2. I then thought I would purchase CS5. However, I need my version to be compatible with those who I work with, all of which are in CS2 still. It seems SOME programs in CS5 will not be able to save down to CS2 for my coworkers.
    Can someone please point me to a Suite that will work in my operating system and also be 100% compatible with CS2?
    The adobe support woman could only tell me "your moving from one mac to another, so it should work. I don't understand why it wouldn't work... Thank you for contacting Adobe. Is there anything else I can help you with today?"  **bamboozled**

    I answered you in the InDesign forum.

  • Need help : Installing the standalone OEPE for OSB 11g for development

    Hi All,
    It would be greatly appreciated if any one could share the details of installing the standalone OEPE (Eclipse along with the OSB plugin for 11g) for development purpose.
    If possible kindly share the download link for the same.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Balaji R

    Hi,
    To have OEPE with the plugins for OSB you actually have to install Weblogic with OEPE and OSB. OEPE will need the libraries in Weblogic and OSB installation...

  • I need help changing the security key for WRT54G2 1.5

    I already know the security key on my network, I just need to change it.  I don't have 'cisco connect'. I've tried the web based method with the 192.168.1.1 IP and using 'admin' for the password, but that gives me a '401 Not Authorized' error.  I've tried using my own security key instead of 'admin' and that doesn't work either.   How do I change this.  I tried to use the Linsky's knowledgebase and that didn't help. Live Chat won't help unless I'm willing to sign-up for some paid service plan, and there is no way I'm doing that.  I've never heard of a company charging their customers just to explain how to do something. All I have is a simple question about how to change the network security key when I already know what it is and there is no problem with the connection. Can anyone help me.  PLEASE.

    If admin didn’t work, it’s possible that you might have setup a different password to login to the setup of the router when you initially set it up. Since admin and your security key didn’t work when you tried accessing your router page, the other option for you then is to reset the router. Push and hold the reset button on the router using a pin or a paper clip for 30 seconds and unplug the power cord for another 30 seconds. Once the power light goes solid, you may start reconfiguring the settings of the router. For instructions, refer to these links: Setting up a Linksys router with Cable Internet service & Setting up a Linksys router for DSL Internet connection. Once you establish the wired internet connection, you may then start reconfiguring the wireless settings. Go to the Wireless tab: set the wireless configuration to manual; set a network name; then save the settings. Once saved, click on Wireless Security subtab:  set the security mode to WPA2 Personal and enter a new security key on the passphrase bar.
