The difference between regular ram and "apple ram" from 3rd parties

So I made a previous post on the Macrumors forums regarding whether the RAM issues in the Unibody MacBook have been resolved or not: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=692653
It seems that most people who bought OCZ ram have had no issues what so ever. I am located in Canada so a store like CanadaComputers is great for me because I can go pick it up instead of having it delivered and pay shipping costs (as opposed to Newegg.ca). On their website, they have two modules with similar specs expect one is found in the Apple ram section and the other is in the regular ram.
Apple Ram (OCZ)
http://canadacomputers.com/index.php...80&cid=RAM.188
Regular Ram (OCZ)
http://canadacomputers.com/index.php...id=RAM.187.778
When comparing the specs, the only difference I can see is that the CL on the Apple ram is 7-7-7-20. The CL on the regular ram is CL 8-8-8-27.
The price difference between the two is $57! OCZ's website confirms that one is made specifically for Apple Notebooks and the other is just regular.
Can anyone explain what CL is and whether it is something that needs to be taken into consideration. Thanks.

That only needs to be taken into consideration if you're using applications which are very demanding about performance, which aren't intended for usage by home users. Click here for more information.

  • I need to know the difference between planned SKF and Actual SKF from business view and when I can use one of them ?

    I need just to know the difference between plan SKF and Actual SKF in business example and when I use one of them.
    thanks

    Hi Salaam,
    Statistical Key Figure (SKF) is a base to allocate the cost between cost centers. Usually, common cost centers cost should allocate to respective department cost centers on monthly basis.
    Some of SKFs are: Calculating floor rent on SFT, Telephone charges on No. of units, and employees head count is with "Each" in SAP.
    Apart from Ajay's reply, you can consider the Canteen exp in an organization. Assume Admin, Fin and Mfg departments are getting food services from Canteen. Here, total monthly cost of Canteen exp should be allocated to respective departments. Here, we use SKF as total head count of each department and distribute the cost.
    Planned SKF is what you planned on the beginning of a period. (Assume head count was planned as 30 in the month beginning)
    Actual SKF is what exactly you consumed over the period. (Actual employees provided canteen services during the month is 25)

  • What is the difference between regular FaceTime and the Mac App Store FaceTime?

    The one in the App Store costs €0,89. How is this one differend?

    Yup.
    The difference is about a bit.
    It's a bit that, when set, allows a database to be in a permanent state of recovery, allowing repeated applications of redo. When a particular recovery operation has finished applying its quota of redo, the database sits there waiting for the next dollop.
    A normal controlfile doesn't have that bit set, and when you do 'recover database' to it, it gets to the end of the redo stream and says 'Media Recovery Complete'. No further redo can then be applied to that database, meaning you can't keep a normal database in a permanent state of being recovered.

  • What's the difference between reguler KDE and KDEmod?

    Hello all,
    In two weeks I get my new laptop, which will be capable of running Arch and KDE ( as my current computer isn't, somehow it only runs Fedora w/ Gnome)
    Since I really like Arch and already got it working on Virtualbox, I want to install it on my new laptop. I'd like to get it working with KDE, but I noticed Arch also has KDEmod. I already searched the forums but couldn't really find an answer to my question: What is the difference between regular KDE and KDEmod and which one is better for me to use?
    Thanks in advance!

    Allan, i forgive you for your poor paragraph construction and sorry for me being a bit peeved
    However, i know you have read more from the IRC log than just that one sentence by me...
    Allan wrote:
    From the IRC log, I do not think that conclusion is too far off, especially if you are considering Arch-Stable as your base...  So saying "plain wrong" seems... well...  plain wrong. Especially given the irc log:
    <funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
    So why not showing the whole picture and clear this up:
    <funkyou> ok, to start: i think at least some of you have noticed that arch linux is a fine platform for what we want to deliver, but there are some little "annoyances"
    <funkyou> mainly:
    <funkyou> -.so bumps every few weeks
    <funkyou> -the general "freshness"
    <funkyou> -a lot of manual interaction needed (sometimes)
    <funkyou> everyone can see these problems when looking at the forums, _most_ of them are related to updates
    <funkyou> in one sentence: to do what we really want to do, we need a stable platform.
    Makes more sense now? Its not that Arch is too unstable, its just that we cant keep up will all the changes... And this is not Archs "fault" nor anyone elses fault, its just going too fast for us. Most annoying or severe bugs in our tools are there due to upstream updates. And the reasons are not really the .so bumps (which are mostly solved by a simple rebuild) but also constantly changing apis and stuff. This is not a big problem in KDE (they keep their apis clean), but a big one when it comes to other stuff like parted, to give an example. And this is our main problem, we need to constantly adapt our code to upstream changes.
    This even resulted in a repo with modified or "frozen" Arch packages just to keep our liveCD going, and now we are looking for solutions for this problem, and "stable" snapshots seem to be one way... Oh, and if we would do this (there is nothing announced yet), we would do our own snapshot every X months because ArchStable seems to be a dead project. We also considered cooperating with the ArchServer guys, but their stuff is really made for servers, so even while their project is really nice its not really an option for us.
    Well, we'll see what we will do during the next months, now we are still testing and evaluating some solutions... Oh, and people, please stop any "we dont need another ubuntu" complaints...

  • Difference between Regular Reversal and out-of-sequence reversal

    Can anyone help me understand the difference between Regular Reversal and out-of-sequence reversal? How does the system behave differently i these two reversals?
    Thanks
    Charlene

    Sorry for the long reply, as here's some information that I have on Voids and Out-of-Sequence reversals.
    On occasion, SAP payroll results can be created in error. In these cases, the payment never goes to the employee and the payroll result should never have been created. These cases are considered “reverse payments” in the off cycle workbench.
    There are two forms of “reverse payments”: voids and out of sequence reversals. Notes 160515, 159701 and 337626 should be reviewed carefully.
    An out of sequence reversal occurs when third party remittance has been run for the payroll result, or when the payroll result is not the most recent result in the cluster directory for the employee. Wage type /568 (total reversal amount) is created in the reversed result for posting purposes. Wage type /571 replaces any /559 wage types in the reversed result and the BT cluster is cleared.
    Wage type /568 is created for posting purposes and it will not appear in any retros over the reversed result.
    An out of sequence reversal should not occur when the employee receives the money unless the actual check is returned or the direct deposit is reversed by the bank.  Because of the tax when paid principle, even if an employee writes a check back to the company for the overpaid amount, this should be processed by retro master data changes and the employee check should be used to relieve any claims in the most recent period.  The claims processing guide gives details on how to relieve claims. Out of sequence reversals depend on third party remittance but not on posting to FI.
    /568 - Total reversal amount - If you cancel a payroll result that A. Has had payments made to third parties or B. is other than the last one.  This is considered an out of sequence reversal.  If these two conditions do not apply, a true void occurs.     Wage type /568 is the total reversal amount.  Should be the sum of /569, /570 and /571.
    /571 - Reversal of /559 - Wage type /571 is the reversal of /559 (bank transfer).  /571 will record the amount from wage types /559.  The /559 wage types will be deleted from the cluster that was reversed.  Wage type /571 will have the same sign as wage      type /559. 
    In payroll reporting, the reversal amounts are evaluated in the next payroll period. The same is true for posting to FI.
    The out of sequence reversal should have been accompanied by a master data change that forced a retro via infotype 0003.
    This retro will fix FI postings in the posting process that accompanies the retro run.For this reason, out of sequence reversals do not need an entry in table T52OCG for processing by the off cycle batch process.
    Regardless of if a ‘reverse payment’ is a void or an out of sequence reversal, there should be an associated master data change to perform this process properly. There had to be a reason that the payment should not have been made and this reason needs to be reflected in the employee’s master data. Both voids and out of sequence reversals can occur before or after the master data change, but the safest method is to perform the master data change first to ensure it occurs before the next payroll is processed.
    In payroll reporting, voids are bypassed in the period for which they were originally paid. This means that if a payroll report is run for a specific period containing a void, the voided result will not be picked up. In FI, voids are bypassed in the period in which they were voided. This is possible because the off cycle batch process already reconciled any incorrect posting that occurred before the payroll result was voided.
    A voided payroll result occurs when no money was given to the employee and no money was remitted through third party remittance.  A void is simply a check or direct deposit that was created in error.  The payroll control record was already exited and the check or direct deposit was already processed, therefore the payroll result can not be recalculated in the original period.
    A void can only occur if the payroll result is the most recent result for the employee.
    If the payroll result is not the most recent result, an out of sequence reversal occurs by default. It is irrelevant whether the transfer to FI has occurred or not with relation to voids.  Some OSS notes state that posting to FI does matter and these notes are in error.

  • What is the difference between ejb reference and ejb handle?

    Hi:
    I am newbie for J2EE.
    I want to know what is the difference between ejb reference and ejb handle
    from the client view and from the container view?
    Very Thanks!
    Stive

    Hi John,,
    1) Ejb Object Handle are nothing but a long lived proxy for the
    ejb object, using this handle user can disconnect from the Ejb Server/Container
    at any time
    and after some time using the same handle he can able to resume the conversational
    state
    with the server / container where he was been disconnected From.
    And there are currently two Handles , HomeHandle and Handle for EjbHomeObject
    and EjbObject
    Respectively. Both these handles have Persistent reference to the EJB Object
    2) Ejb Reference is used to lookup a bean from other Enterprise Bean
    Ejb reference is a nickname for the JNDI Location that you want to lookup a bean.
    your code will looks up a Home object via using this nickname
    and the deployer will bind the
    nickname to the JNDI location of its choice
    EJb Reference are declared in the deployment descriptor

  • What's the difference between XI basis and regular basis?

    I am an SAP basis admin for years.
    Now my corp starts to use XI.
    What is the difference between XI basis and regular basis if there is any?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    No difference... Basis is Basis (Technical consultant)... According to me its just terminology changed. i.e. SAP Administrator instead of SAP basis.
    For XI you may need to additionally control the Java stack administartion along with ABAP stack.
    Please go thourgh the below link to know about SAP NetWeaver Administrator, then you may compare with regular Basis activities

  • In OSX Activity Monitor, what's the difference between 'free' memory and 'inactive' memory

    In OS X Activity Monitor, what's the difference between 'free' memory and 'inactive' memory. My daughters 2Gb MacBook Pro is very slow, it probably needs more memory but there is almost 1Gb of 'inactive' memory but no 'free' memory when an application is opened.
    Thanks

    Free RAM is the one that has not been used by any application since you started up your Mac, and inactive RAM is the one that was used by an application and it is not in use anymore.
    1 GB of inactive RAM is a lot, and it may be the cause of the slowness. There are a lot of apps that allows you to turn inactive into free RAM. I use FreeMemory, but have a look at the Mac App Store.
    If you are a developer, you can do that with a command you can type into Terminal:
    sudo purge

    Source SAP.    
    BI including Price and non-price variables but LAC Bidding is based on price only.
    BI - Longer response time for Bidders (from days to week) but Bidding short bidding windows (Hours).
    BI - Bidders sees no information on competitors' bid but in LAC Rank,Best Bid , and next bid can be displayed on real time
    BI-Well suited for large variety of goods and services , including ram waterials, services and projects but LAC More suited for commodities or goods and services with standard attributes that vary only slightly from supplier to supplier.
    BI -Sourcing is based on value propositions (.eg. High Quality ,fast deliveries) rather than price but LAC market dynamics of auctions work best when buyer/seller relationship is loosele- coupled.

  • What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring?

    What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring? I can't get iPhone 4 video to work on my TV screen
    I have just bought an MD098ZM/A (Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter). I am struggling to get it to show a picture on my TV. I know I'm doing something right because the audio is coming out of my TV speakers but no picture on the TV screen.
    I have used the same HDMI channel (on the TV side) with the same cable and my thunderbolt port (MacBook Air) without any trouble - and on the same app (BBC iPlayer download then full-screen mode).
    Now I note that the packaging for the MD098ZM/A says video-out on iPhone 4 but mirroring only on iPhone 4S. I only have an iPhone 4 (not the 4S). Now if the lack of iPhone 4 support for mirroring means that I can't play video material out to my TV, then in what sense is there any video-out capability at all?
    There is only safety and warranty paperwork in the Apple adapter packaging - no help information. And I haven't found further guidance online either.
    I do note somewhere online that it suggests that basic non-mirroring video-out (for this adapter) only works with some external TV sets. Any way of finding out which? I'm using a Sanyo CE32LD90-B LCD TV if it helps.
    So far not doing very well.

    Now found these but have had to give up on this adapter!

  • What is the difference between cluster patch and bundle patch

    hi every one
    can any one please tell me the difference between cluster patch and bundle patch ... for what purpose we apply cluster patch and bundled patch

    There is no inherent difference between a patch cluster and a patch bundle that I am aware of.
    Its just a name for collections of patches.
    For whatever reason, the regular collections of recommended patches that sun puts out happen to be referred to as the recommended patch cluster.
    The "all patches to bring you up to 5/08" that sun is putting out happens to be being called the 5/08 patch bundle.
    I don't think they meant anything by the distinction. But thats the first time the term "patch bundle" has been used that I'm aware of.
    So maybe there is some new patch delivery/installation technology implied. But I doubt it.
