System Recommendation for PC "Newbie"

Hello:
I'm currently taking the 9i OCA/OCP course and thought that I could use my OS X Mac at home to run the developer version. I see that it only runs on OS X Server, so now I need to purchase a PC...
Any minimum system recommendations or things to watch out for? Would I be able to run it on a portable or would that be foolish?
Thanks.

As a Windows person, I like Windows 2000. You might like the XP Pro interface as it is a little more graphical than the Windows 2000 interface. Don't forget you'd need Windows XP Pro Edition, not Home Edition.
Windows NT is probably a little old is probably next in line to be desupported by Oracle and Microsoft.

  • I need audio system recommendations for my iMac.

    I have a large iTunes library on my iMac and currently listen to it through a Yamaha receiver with two Cerwin-Vega speakers and an Infinity sub. Although the receiver is designed for surround sound, I just use the stereo mode for music. It puts out 130 watts per channel although I use it in a small 12 x 14 office in my home. I would like to upgrade my sound system for the Mac if there is something available that is just killer for this application. 

    Yes, a dedicated stereo integrated amplifier would have discrete electronic components, as opposed to the "chip" circuitry in your Yamaha surround receiver.  I myself use a Denon discrete integrated amplifier and it sounds far more lifelike and images far better than the Denon receiver it replaced.  There is a limit as to how far you can improve your sound though in that iTunes songs are recorded and played at less than CD quality and there is no way around that without directly ripping from CD's using a lossless format. So, to sum up, yes you have definite possibilities for improving your listening experience.  And I might recommend if you are interested in saving money that you research on http://www.audiogon.com for quality used components sold by other audiophiles who themselves are upgrading. I've purchased and sold on the site for years.  It's the eBay of audio only components.
    And, Yes, to your Question 1.
    Hope this helps

  • Hardware recommendations for a newbie

    After many long and frustrating years at the hands of PC and MS I will soon be purchasing an iMac (it seems to be a world of bliss in comparison to my current setup!)
    Soon after the iMac (2.4GHz, 1GB RAM, Mac OS X v10.4.10) I will be purchasing an audio interface and midi controller for use with GB8 and perhaps later with ProTools. I generally do home recording with guitars, mic and some midi, no more than 2-4 tracks at a time. I would like the option of portable (ie USB or Firewire for a laptop when required). Looking at keeping the spending on both items to aproximately Aust$500 (US$400) each.
    Do any of you kind folks have some ideas as to stable and compatible hardware which would suit my needs and also offer the versatility of using within other applications (ProTools) at a later date?
    At this stage the PreSonus Firebox has been recommended to me as a suitable Interface for my needs, the M-Audio 410 has been stated as having driver probs.
    In regards to midi controllers have looked at M-Audio Axiom49, however some have stated that is not a simple plugnplay as some other options.
    Would sincerely appreciate your ideas and suggestions to get me on the way.
    Many Thanks

    As far as Quality and just all around "Goodness", you can't go wrong with PreSonus, they make GREAT hardware (I use a FirePod). I'm not sure about being bus powered though, someone else will have to comment on that (or you'll need to do a bit more research)
    Here's a jumping off point:

    For a Controller, check of out the first one listed here (It's the one I have), pure plug and play:

  • Final cut studio system recommendations

    i cant find the system recommendations for final cut studio, only final cut studio 2.
    i have a 1.6ghz single-core Powermac G5 with 768mb memory that works well enough with final cut studio. i wouldn't mind making it as fast as possible and was wondering where i can get good but cheap memory and how i could further boost my machine.
    help anyone?

    RAM can be had from Crucial.com
    Don't know anything about processor accelerators. You might check over in the hardware section of the forum. Lots of smart people over there to offer advice.

  • Upgrade MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. to recommended system requirements for heli simulator: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB.

    I want to install a helicopter simulator into my MacPro1,1 with ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512 MB and Open GL 1.7.7. Recommended system requirements for the heli simulator are: OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVIDIA or ATI with 512MB (at least as fast as NVIDIA 8600, 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400). Is there such a graphics card available that will work in my Mac Pro?

    Are you really still running 10.6.3? you will need 10.6.5+ so do that and make a clone.
    ATI 5770 from Apple Store - like 1000s of others have done and in the comments section on the store page.

  • What system would you recommend for CS5 Master Collection?

    Hi All,
    Hoping to get input on a recommended system configuration for having a computer that has enough under the hood to handle CS 5 in full.
    I have been searching around and it seems like Adobe has links to three different suppliers:
    Dell
    HP
    Lenovo
    However nowhere in any of those links are recommended system configs for CS 5 with prices.
    In reviewing what Adobe has to say they pretty much state to handle the full advantages that CS 5 Master Collection can offer you need:
    16 - 32 gbs of RAM.
    Beast of a Nvidia Graphics Card (only 5 models supported as of yet)
    Lotsa cores like 12 or more...
    Checking HP and a couple configurations with the HP Z800 shows a system that ranges $13k - $16K. Ouch ouch ouch. I haven't bought an HP in almost ten years because I always found they were overpriced with proprietary parts that made easy swap out of parts impossible. Don't know if that is still the case.
    Haven't figured out how to get the Dell Precision 7500 configured the way I want it and can't really tell if it is designed to handle maximum firepower or not.
    If there any Beastmasters out there who can chime in on recommendations and models, it'd be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    TCF

    I say build your own. Get a semi good i7, stock up on several minimum gpus if you want multiple monitors, I'd say probably 12 gig of low range ddr3. Not hard to set up raid array. All for around 1800.

    Hello,
    Can you please advise me as to the recommended system requirements for Adobe CC for Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Dreamweaver (all 4 programs). I'm hoping this is summarized somewhere rather than making me look up and compare all four. I'll be using a windows based PC, and will need a graphics card that can support at least two monitors.

  • HT202239 This computer does not meet the recommended system requirements for 3D titles.

    Hey guys.
    Today I downloaded FCP 10.2 and when enabling 3D text this message appeared "This computer does not meet the recommended system requirements for 3D titles". I ignored it and continued working on the 3D text, everything looked fine. Could someone tell me what the difference is when working on a not compatible computer?
    Thanks!
    www.lightbroscreative.com

    Tech specs for 10.2
    256MB of VRAM (1GB recommended for 4K editing and 3D titles)
    I guess you have the minimum to download, but VRAM isn't enough for 3D.

  • Recommendations for speaker systems for DVD player/recorder

    I'm getting a DVD recorder soon and I hope to get some recommendations on suitable Creative speaker systems.
    The room is fairly big but the TV area is rather confined..so i prefer a set whose speakers are not too big or bulky or numerous (i think i'll stop at 5.1 since i have limited space to put the speakers). Budget is flexible, but of course the cheaper the better (hopefully under $350).
    The TV sounds good when watching TV programs but it reproduces an unbalanced ratio of muddy dialogue and loud sound effects when playing back DVDs. I end up having to crank up the volume so high to hear what the characters are saying, and of course, the background audio gets boosted way loud as well. So my main consideration is reproducing clear speech and dialogue and crisp (not overly loud) background audio - any recommendations for this?
    Which models have an optical/coaxial input? Can i just hook up the speakers to the optical/coaxial or RCA outputs of the DVD recorder/player since most models have in-built DTS decoders? Which are the least problematic models?
    Thank you.

    I think I have the same question more or less. I bought a cheap Best Buy memorex speaker docking station and I need a male to female IPOD cable so that I can Play the radio and charge the IPOD at the same time as well of course have the head phone jack plugged into the Line In that acts as the antenna.
    So if I had the Male to Female cable My dock would charge and the cable to the line in acts as a Antenna. I think this makes sense..

  • Online systems configured for newbies to experiment

    Why does SDN not have online systems configured for newbies to experiment online.
    Will this pose too much of an administrative task? with the skills available in this forum it should not be a problem.
    or is it a question of making profit through the training academies which are not affordable to individuals not backed by their companies to learn on the technology?

    An interesting thought, however with so many users we would need a server farm of test systems to handle it.  And with users wanting to try so many different things it would be rather difficult to maintain the servers and have some sort of schedule for maintenance, resets, etc.

  • External Hard Drive Recommendation for iMac 24

    I'm a Mac Newbie; 25 plus years using HP's. I'm needing advise on best external HD for Time Machine and media storage. I currently have a MacBook 13" and an iMac 24 (3.06 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 1.0 TB Internal Hard Drive). I've noticed a lot of positive comments about OWC external drives, especially the Mercury Elite Series. Is there a particular model or size in that series that would make sense based on my current equipment? Also, just curious, there doesn't appear to be many recommendations for Apple Time Machine units; why not? Thanks in advance for your time into my query.

    I'm very happy with my OWC Mercury Elite Pro. How large a unit you get it mostly a matter of your budget and how much data you want/need to back up. A 1TB external drive would probably do most people quite nicely for a long time, but if you're going to be accumulating a lot of video material, that will fill up space fast, so you might need a larger drive or RAID. OWC has RAID units up to 4TB.
    just curious, there doesn't appear to be many recommendations for Apple Time Machine units; why not?
    Do you mean Apple's Time Capsule? If so, many people are quite happy with it, but since it's more than just an external hard drive, you won't see it mentioned very often when someone asks for a recommendation for an external drive. If you need to share a drive between more than one system, and particularly if you're also in the market for a wireless base station, a Time Capsule might be just the thing for you. If all you need is an external drive for a single computer, a Time Capsule would be overkill.

  • Recommendation for maintaining pricing in CRM when R/3 is also in landscape

    Hi,
    in out context we have already SAP R/3 in the landscape, all the pricing in done in R/3. lot of custom pricing routines are also written in r/3.
    now we in the process of implementing CRM and plan to do Quotations in CRM and replicate in SAP R/3 . what is the recommendation for such a scenario.
    do we replicate all pricing conditions/procedures in CRM? do we need to re-do all procedures in IPC?
    can we re-determine pricing in R/3 so that we can avoid such work in CRM? we are using configurable products in R/3.
    please share your thoughts/best practices and any document will be of help.
    thanks
    RH

    Hi Swaroop,
               The Assignment of Buisness Partner classification from CRM to R3 is purely based on Classification
    so your initial Entry
    I chose B as classification & Z001 as an account group which is a copy of 0001. System takes it.
    was taken by the system
    now when you tried to make another Entry by the same Classification
    chose B again & this time Z002 acc gp (copy of 0002), and system does not allow?
    it checks for the Existing Classification and so does not allow the same
    Delete the Previous Entry and then Try Entering the New Entry
    The System shall Take it
    Hope it Answered your Queries...
    Revert Back for any Doubts..
    Also Chk the Link for details:http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/04/4d9ac77b2b11d3b52f006094b9114a/content.htm

  • Same logical system name for two productive systems - BW, PI issues

    Dear all,
    we have a productive system which serves two companies (different company codes). This system is connected both to BW and PI for both companies.
    There is a requirement that these two companies must use their own system, so the whole landscape (dev,qa,prd) will be copied to different systems (different server with different system id).
    As a result of the above procedure we wll have two different productive systems, as required, but we wll have the same logical system name for the two productive systems, which must be both connect to bw and PI.
    However as far as I know:
    - we cannot connect systems with same logical system name to BW,PI
    - we cannot convert logical system name of the one of the two productive systems as they are productive and so this is not supported.
    How can we overcome the problem?
    Please advice.

    Right.
    > How can we overcome the problem?
    Since you split up systems (or plan to) I highly recommend booking an SLO service (http://service.sap.com/slo). Those people have to the tools and the knowlege to help you. I would not do this on my own.
