Tests comparing the Radeon 2600 with the 3870?

I have a new Mac Pro. before I bought it, I did some research and decided that the ATI Radeon HD 3870 would probably be faster for Aperture use so I ordered that too. unfortunately, the retailer didn't have it in stock at the time so for the time being, my Mac has an ATI Radeon HD 2600 card in it.
here's the question. the ATI 3870 has arrived and I can pick it up anytime I want. would anyone like to see a comparison between the 2600 and the 3870? I would need specific test details. my camera for the last year has been a Mark III so my images are 10 mpixel images.
cheers,
Gregory

I had an iMac (that I have since returned) that had it's 2600 ATI problem. They took a few months, and eventually they pushed a similar firmware update to this one.
My computer had been crashing multiple times a day. After the firmware update, it was fine - although other problems led to its return.
Hope that helps!

Radeon 2600 beats GeForce 8800 -- again

I was doing some tests comparing two iMacs, one with the Radeon 2600 Pro and one with the GeForce 8800 GS. The test was to import a movie file into iMovie, which renders thumbnails of each segment of the video.
The iMac with the Radeon completed the thumbnails faster even though it had a slower CPU clock (2.8 vs 3.06GHz). Huh?
The same thing happened when I encoded a DVD project into a disk image using iDVD. This required it to render an animated welcome screen. The iMac 2.8 with Radeon 2600 Pro beat the iMac 3.08 with the GeForce 8800 GS!
Scratching my head, I decided to try the same two tests on a Mac Pro 3.2GHz 8-core. When the Radeon 2600 XT was installed, the Mac Pro completed the iMovie and iDVD tests faster than when the GeForce 8800 GT was installed.
Apparently the GPU is handling at least a portion of both tasks -- and the Radeon 2600 handles its portion better than the GeForce 8800. And to add insult to injury, the Radeon 3870 will be shipping within a week.

Thanks for the information. I am considering to replace my standard mac pro first generation video card by a ge force 8800.
I am using the mac pro mainly for D 200 raw file editing on 30 inch ACD screen. I jjust wondered if yoyr results are also applicable for my situation.

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, 8 gb ram with a Dell 27" display and a 42" LG TV. I am thinking about upgrading the stock ATI Radeon 2600 graphics card for better resolution, preferring 2 dvi outputs. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best card?

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, 8 gb ram with a Dell 27” display and a 42” LG TV. I am thinking about upgrading the stock ATI Radeon 2600 graphics card for better resolution, preferring 2 dvi outputs or 1 dvi and 1 vga vs 1 dvi and a mini. I don't do a lot of Final Cut Pro, gaming, etc. I am interested in best value for the graphics card.
Does anyone have any suggestions on the best graphics card for these larger displays for the best value?
Thanks,
Kevin

I recommend you install nothing older than the Apple-firware 5770, about US$250.
RE: Mac Pro Replacement Graphics cards
1) Apple brand cards,
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
1) Apple brand cards:
• Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5
• Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards
• NVIDIA Quadro 4000, about US$1200
• NVIDIA Quadro 5000, about US$2500
3) "Mac Edition" cards -- REQUIRE 10.8.3 or later:
• SAPPHIRE HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 MAC Edition, about US$480** Vendor recommends Mac Pro 4,1
• EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
If you are Meet ALL of these:
• running 10.8.3 or later AND
• don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
• can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

Automating the process of comparing two PDF file with the help of QTP(Automation Testing Tool)

Can anybody help me with comparing the two pdf files with the help of QTP.I have Adobe Acrobat installed on my system and i have access to the API.
Thanks,

I want to find out more about QTP and API. Maybe that is what I want to compare two mechanical drawings for differences between them. (see “More than one pdf file in one window”. Is that what you are looking to do? 9Not necessarily mechanical drawings but some other pdf).

UDF to compare the dates with the input date

Hi,
Help me in writing an UDF to compare the input date with start date and end date.
I had written following UDF, but it is not working. we are on XI 3.0
try {
            SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
            Date sd = df.parse(StartDate);
            Date id = df.parse(InputDate);
            Date ed = df.parse(EndDate);
            if ((sd.before(id) || (sd.equals(id))) && (ed.after(id)) || (ed.equals(id))) {
          return true;
else{
                return false;
        }     catch (Exception e){
       e.printStackTrace();
Thanks
Srinivas

Hello Srinivas,
did you import this two classes in your UDF ? java.text.* and java.util.*
In case you did but the program is still not working I just wrote a code without imports. See if this might help. I have tested this with all type of data please test again from your end. I have assumed that if three dates are equal the function return true. I am not sure whether you wanted to exclude the boundary dates. In case you want to exclude those dates just replace '<=' with '<' symbol. The code could have been smarter but in short time I thought this might help.
public class DateRange {
static boolean compareDate(String startDate,String inputDate,String endDate)
          int j,k,l;
          String s[],i[],e[];
          s=startDate.split("-", 3);
          i=inputDate.split("-", 3);
          e=endDate.split("-", 3);
          j=s[0].compareTo(i[0]);
          k=i[0].compareTo(e[0]);
          l=s[0].compareTo(e[0]);
          if(l>0|| j>0 || k>0)
               return false;
          if(j<=0 && k<0)
               return true;
          j=s[1].compareTo(i[1]);
          k=i[1].compareTo(e[1]);
          l=s[1].compareTo(e[1]);
          if(l>0|| j>0 || k>0)
               return false;
          if(j<=0 && k<0)
               return true;
          j=s[2].compareTo(i[2]);
          k=i[2].compareTo(e[2]);
          l=s[2].compareTo(e[2]);
          if(l>0|| j>0 || k>0)
               return false;
          if(j<=0 && k<=0)
               return true;
            return false;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String startDate="1992-04-03";
          String inputDate="1992-02-03";
          String endDate="1992-02-03";
          System.out.println(compareDate(startDate,inputDate,endDate));
Plese let me know if this works.

Comparing the current value with the previous one in Powershell

Hi,
New to scripting and i was wondering how can I compare the current value with the previous value?
I am having trouble with the loop structure, and I am not sure I am on the right track...
I am trying to compare the record to next record in the same csv file after import-csv... My code runs fine, but is not giving the right result.
$FilePath = Get-FileName -initialDirectory "C:\"
#Testing for null
If($FilePath)
$Data = Import-csv -Path $FilePath | Sort-Object BUYER, {[int] $_.PO_NBR}, {[int] $_.LINE_NBR}
Foreach($fData in $Data)
$i = $fData
Foreach($i in $fData)
if($fData.Buyer -eq $i.Buyer)
#save all the same buyer name to a new variable
Write-Host "Same as previous"
Else
Write-Host "Variable is null"
Remove-Item function:\Get-FileName

Thank you. The Foreach loop is now working properly.
Can I ask what is the purpose of "-ea 0" in the import-csv? I can't seem to find "-ea" as a parameter for import-csv in help.
-ea is short for -ErrorAction.

Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding. However when I close Nunit, the page is back to be normal. The title is returned to the name of website without "not responding". I sure this problem did not happen on Firefox version 26. I just got this problem when firefox upgrading automatically to version 27. Please help me fix this problem because it is very important for my work. If you need more information pls send your concerns via my email address.
Thanks so much

Hi, the work around suggested above should put you in working mode in the meantime. However to help investigate the issue it is possible to analyze what is not loading or taking a long time by analyzing the network traffic or http headers of the Nunit web page.

Comparing the BOM usage with the actual usage for materials.

Hi All
My client want to compare the BOM usage with the actual usage and have a report for this within a period? More specified they want to calculate the BOM usage, based on the requirement quantity from confirmation - but with out the scrap %. mulitplied with the confimed quantity of the header material.
The actual usage should be based on goods issuing from stock, either as goods issue to order (backflushing) or as goods issue to cost center.
I havent been able to indentiy a standard report for doing this - does some of you know a standard report?
- I was thinking of the following method:
Look at tabel RESB and compare it with MSEG, but I have some diferent problems with this.
- In resb there is no qty before scrap.
- The data amount from MSEG, is so huge so it is not possible to make a data search for a whole period (eg. month)
Br. M

There is one std report MCRX which gives a comparison of quanity in order and actual consumption,
if it doesnt meet your need, you may have to create a custom report.
logic can be find the quantites as per BOM for the produced quantities
issued quantities to the order
tables you may need are AUFK AUFM
AFKO, STAS STPO
MSEG, MKPO
JEST ( if you want to filter using order status)

How can I compare the actual and expected values in Unit testing when they are XML files?

I have created a unit test for a method in VS 2008. My expected value and actual value are XMLs. Therefore though the output is same as I expect it gives an error as I am doing string comparison now. How can I compare these 2 XMLs in expected output and
actual output format in Unit Testing?
mayooran99

In unit test, when you want to validate XML files, you feed them into the class / struct that you want to feed the XML into and compare the values there (You don't just feed it in XMLReader and feed it line by line, right? But if it really is, that's how
you should also test it in unit tests).
In short, how you'd use the XML in your code, that's how you should test it in unit test.

My Itunes Library and iPhone have fallen out of sync on music over the yearsare - how can I compare my itunes library with my Iphone to see what songs are missing from my library so I can then bring my Library up to date

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Satheesh Variath, I just had to make some corrections from your script to get the correct answer:
CREATE
VIEW vw_Comp
AS
SELECT
TOP 1 t.IDNO,t.name,t.[Date],t.Price1,t.Price2,
CASE
WHEN t.Price2
> LAG(Price2,1)
OVER (PARTITION

ORDER BY IDNO)
THEN 1
WHEN t.Price2
< LAG(Price2,1)
OVER (PARTITION
BY name
ORDER BY IDNo)
THEN -1
ELSE 0
END
AS Comp
FROM
@T t
ORDER
BY DATE
DESC
The adjustments: the selection of the most recent comparison (Top 1) and the use of the function LAG (instead of LEAD) to get the previous value of the column.

Testing on a Mamiya 645DF with an Aptus II-7 back. What do I need to do to make the files readable on Adobe Bridge CS6?

Hi there. I'm running tests on a Mamiya 645DF + with an Aptus II-7 back. The RAW files are "mos." What do I need to do in order to make the files compatible/readable in Bridge CS6 and Photoshop CS6?
Thanks!!

I do not see a camera named "Mamiya 645DF" in the Adobe list of cameras supported by any and all versions of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR). However, the Leaf Aptus-II 7 has been supported since ACR 4.6 in CS3 and ACR 5.1 in CS4.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Unless Mamiya somehow messes with the raw format of the Leaf back, your files should be opened by any version of ACR that runs with CS6. The current version is "ACR 8.6 for CS6".
Try Purging the Cache for the offending folder(s) through the Tools menu in Bridge.
Tools > Cache > Purge Cache for Folder "xxxx".

HT5622 My Ipod Classic shows a red circle with a cross in the middle. I've completed diagnostic tests which have popped up, however any HP/FW/Hard Drive tests freeze the ipod, as if the hard drive won't spin. What do I do?

My Ipod Classic shows a red circle with a cross in the middle. I've completed diagnostic tests which have popped up, however any HP/FW/Hard Drive tests freeze the ipod, as if the hard drive won't spin. What do I do?
After holding down the Select and Play/Pause button, I was able to restart the Ipod and then it brought me to a Diagnositc test. I have tried doing both the Mannual and Annual test on the ipod however in each test, the ipod freezes on different access tests. The HP (headphones) test, shows the headphones are detected, but then if it tries to play a song to make sure they work it freezes and goes back to the red cross. I have looked at various other questions regarding the FW cable, however I don't believe i have such a cabel. Then the Hard Drive test freezes up and I can hear a ticking noise coming from the drive but it doesnt seem to be spinning. Alongside these test issues, any computer cannot see the Ipod when plugged in (including itunes). Therefore some tests for the USB drive cannot be completed. I do not recall dropping it badly, though I have dropped it previously. Does all this mean there is damage to the drive? Should I instead take it to an apple store?
Many Thanks

The stats look fine. Try the DFU Restore method shown in Corrupt iPod classic. It may pay to disable any anti-virus software and use the staged transfer method to reload data, assuming you get that far.

Compare the current value with the previous value in the same column

Hi all,
I have to include a statement in a query which allows to compare the current value of column A with the previous value of column A (same column). from there, I need to add a condition in order to have the expected result.
Let's take an example to illustrate what I want to achieve:
I have the following columns in table called 'Charges':
Ship_id batch_nr Order_nr Price
SID1111 9997 MD5551 50
SID1111 9998 MD5552 50
SID1111 9999 MD5553 50
SID2222 8887 MD6661 80
SID2222 8887 MD6662 80
SID2222 8887 MD6662 80
SID3333 6666 MD7771 90
I want to check if the ship_id of row 2,3 (and more if available) is equal to the ship_id of row 1.
If it is the case, then value 'together with the first batch_nr' in row 2 and 3 under Price column. If not, then keep the original value of Price column
PLease see below the expected result:
Ship_id batch_nr Order_nr Price
SID1111 9997 MD5551 50
SID1111 9998 MD5552 together with 9997
SID1111 9999 MD5553 together with 9997
SID2222 8887 MD6661 80
SID2222 8887 MD6662 together with 8887
SID2222 8887 MD6663 together with 8887
SID3333 6666 MD7771 90
Thanks in advance for your help, it is really urgent.

]That looks like the query you were using before you started this thread.
Modify it, using the analytic fucntions FIRST_VALUE and LAG, like I showed you.
I see that you did simplify the problem quite a bit, and it's good that you did that.
It doesn't matter that your real problem involves joins or GROUP BY. Analytic functions are calculated on the results after all joins and GROUPS BYs are done. Just substitute your real expressions for the simplified ones.
For example, in your simplified problem, there was a column called order_nr, but I see now that's it's really called o.ordnum. Where the solution I posted earlier says "ORDER BY order_nr", you should say "ORDER BY o.ordnum".
Here's a less obvious example: in your simplifed problem, there was a column called price, but I see now that it's really SUM (tc1.chrg_amt + tc2.chrg_amt + tc3.chrg_amt). Where the solution I posted earlier says "TO_CHAR (price)", you should say "TO_CHAR (SUM (tc1.chrg_amt + tc2.chrg_amt + tc3.chrg_amt))". (You can't use an alias, like "Total Price", in the same SELECT clasue where it is defined.)
I removed some columns from the select as they are not relevant for the wanted action like 'adress details or other references'.
Now here is the result:
Shipment ID     Order Number     WMS Batch     Freight      Fuel Price Order Total Price
SID0132408     MDK-000014-05602649     04641401     110     10 120
SID0132408     MDK-000014-05602651     04641402     110     10 120
SID0132408     MDK-000014-05602652     04641363     110     10 120
as you can see, the 3 orders have the same shipment ID.
The expected result should be shown under column 'Total Price' as follows:
Shipment ID     Order Number     WMS Batch     Freight      Fuel Price Order Total Price
SID0132408     MDK-000014-05602649     04641401     110     10 120

before the formatted section and this different character
after the formatted section. To post formatted text on this site, type these 6 characters
before the formatted section, and the exact same 6 characters again after the formatted section.

Hi,
I have Oracle 10g in my system. I know dba_users table has information of all the created users of the oracle, along with their encrypted passwords.If I want to make a login page based on this table ,how could I compare the password in that case?
In above situation, I am getting the username with the regular texted password for authentication check. How can we checked this texted password with the encrypted password of dba_users, for the respective username?
Your input would be appreciated.

Try use the username/password from login page to create an connection to database.
