Thought ;; Advantages of using eMac

Hi All
While this old eMac with OS X 10.3.9 cannot play any videos or access Youtube site, I fould out that it is great in reading NEWS sites with a lot of pop up adverts.
Because this eMac does not bother with any of the pop up windows ads... which used to annoy me a lot with my WINDOWS XP PC.
Because of this, it feels a lot faster in browsing these news sites with this eMac.
And keyboard is quite nice... so its not too bad. Also, I think I do not have to bother with Virus problems with this eMac too much, which is omni-present and threatening in WINDOWS XP environment.
cheers
D.

They're good machines if you can live with the limitations. Bump the RAM, install OSX 10.4.11, and most of Youtube should be available to you if it's the 1 GHz model.

  • Advantages of using BPR in an SAP project

    Hi
    Could anyone tell me what are the advantages and significance of using the Business Process Respository (BPR) while starting an implementation Project (or template project). Lets say as opposed to NOT using the BPR. What are the pros and cons of the two approaches? And how reliable are these BPR contents?
    Appreciate your answers
    Drake

    Hi Drake,
    BPR comes from SAP and delivered via Software Component ST-ICO. Periodically, SAP keeps upgrading this component and in my view, one of the best enablers of Solution Manager.
    From a Project point of view, if you use BPR provided content, at Scenario, Process level, it inherits all 'associated' assignments, like Transaction Codes, IMG nodes relevant for a given Process Step. Also, it loads any other accelerator documents from SAP in General Documentation Tab.
    These contents are helpful for Business Process Monitoring (BPM) too when you want to 'inherit' the Processes and Process Steps defined in Project into Solution. There are standard metrics that SAP provides for process steps in BPM that would be more easily compatible if a project had got the same terminology.
    BPR, however, isn't as comprehensive as we may like it to be. It's rich on some areas and frugal on certain others.
    In terms of 'reliability', well there is no specific aspersions that could be cast  on it
    If it's rich, it's visible and useful; where it's not good enough, we can always add some content and still make some good use of it.
    Another advantage of using BPR is that when a new version of BPR is downloaded and applied, using SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE transaction, the system will offer a chance to see areas which are impacted by a change and those can accepted in SOLAR01/02.
    So, BPR-led content can always be kept up-to-date.
    In my personal experience, I have realised that 2 consultants can easily have 4 opinions! On ever fluid concepts like Scenario, Processes etc. to attain a convergence of thoughts and minds is a difficult proposition. BPR allows for a project to close the gap and adopt SAP ways of definition and helps jump-start the project. The time saved is better used in value added areas or in rigorous testing and training !
    The only firms/ projects which may want to shy from BPR could  be those:
    - who have a fairly well established vocabulory of defining their day to day processes and where retrofitting SAP definitions can be counter productive
    - who have traditionally used advanced platforms like ARIS or other tools
    - who work in industries inadequately represented by SAP

  • What is the advantage of using methods to return objects?

    Hello there,
    What is the advantage of using static methods to return
    objects? Isnt this a Factory Pattern ?
    What is the real advantage of using methods to return objects
    rather than using public constructors to create objects ?
    Can some one please explain
    Regards

    I think there were two questions. The first (why
    static) is well answered but I hope somebody can
    answer the general question - why whatever =
    createSomething(); as opposed to whatever
    = new Something(); - because inquiring minds
    want to know.I thought I answered that question. Perhaps I need to be more specific.
    For the Singleton pattern, you don't want a new instance (except possibly the first time, if you're using lazy instantiation).
    For the Factory pattern, you might not always want an instance of the actual class containing the static methods, so new won't work.
    If, on the other hand, neither of the above holds, there is no reason not to use new (unless, of course, anyone can come up with another use of static creators).

  • If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    No, it only mirrors changes to synced data.  This includes mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari bookmarks, notes, iWork documents and data, and photo stream photos (assuming you choose to sync all this data).  Changes to iTunes data such as music, apps, podcasts, etc., are not synced using iCloud.  In your example, if you delete an app from one device it will remain on the other until deleted there too.

  • HT1349 I don't have an Apple product. I accidentally signed up for iCloud because I thought I could use it with my iTunes on my PC. Now it won't go away. I have deleted the software but every time I open iTunes it demands I reopen my iCloud session. Help.

    I want to get rid of iCloud. I do not currently have an Apple product but thought I could use it with iTunes and my PC. I have deleted the software. I told iTunes to take it off my account, but every time I open iTunes there it is again, asking me to log into iCloud. I can't get Apple support because I don't have an Apple product. I don't know how to get rid of this!

    This is for a Mac, but may be similar for a PC.

  • What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique ?

    What are the advantage of using a passive monitoring technique

    Hi Plawansai,
    I saw your question that is still unanswered.
    I believe an advantage of using a passive monitoring technique is that it won't interfer with live traffic, as it does not inject traffic into the network or modify the traffic that is already on the network.
    One drawback anyway, is that post-processing time can take a large amount of time with passive monitoring!
    A combination of the two monitoring methods seems to be the route to go.

  • What are the advantages of using Map IDs?

    Hi:
    I am trying to find out the advantages for using map ids as
    opposed to just using the file names for the topics, but I couldn't
    find this information in the RH7 Help or the forums. Can you please
    list the advantages and disadvantages.
    Also, I am describing how I wish to implement the context
    sensitive help feature for my application and you can tell me which
    approach is better. We make an application that is packaged within
    a Java IDE. We want to launch context sensitive help topics from
    the wizards and cheat sheets. Now, this context sensitive help can
    be either be installed on the local machine or network (file://
    protocol) or available on our portal (https:// protocol). We do
    have the infrastructure in place to let the user decide whether
    he/she wants to access the local help topic or the one over the
    internet. Will map ids work for both the scenarios?
    Thanks,
    K

    It sounds like your application call needs to call an online
    version of the help first and if this is not available to point to
    a local copy. Is that right? If so, how this happens is entirely in
    the hands of your developers. I know it can be done, just sketchy
    on the actual procedure.
    As far as the CSH in the help is concerned, you can use
    mapids for both versions of the help if you want. If using webhelp
    you'd do well to check out
    this
    link on Peter Grainge's site.

  • What is the advantages of using Flexconnect groups

    what is the advantages of using Flexconnect groups in WLC?
    Reg,
    Ezra.

    Pls refer this document for more detail about these features
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Mobility/emob73dg/emob73/ch7_HREA.html#wp1091114
    FlexConnect is one mode an AP can operate, typically deployed in Branch setup where you do not have a controller at branch site. Those AP can register to a controller at your HQ or main site. So traffic will terminate at your branch switch instead of tunnel back to HQ-WLC.
    If you want roaming within your branch FlexConnect AP then you have to put those AP into a FlexConnect Group. Then only key information shared among those AP to facilitate fast roaming.
    Pls do not forget to rate our responses if you find them useful.

  • What are Parameters? How are they differenet from Variables? Why can't we use variables for passing data from one sequnece to another? What is the advantage of using Parameters instead of Variables?

    Hi All,
    I am new to TestStand. Still in the process of learning it.
    What are Parameters? How are they differenet from Variables? Why can't we use variables for passing data from one sequnece to another? What is the advantage of using Parameters instead of Variables?
    Thanks in advance,

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Using the Parameters is the correct method to pass data into and out of a sub sequence. You assign your data to be passed into or out of a Sequence when you are in the Edit Sequence Call dialog and in the Sequence Parameter list.

    Hi,
    Does anybody know how can i use emacs on solaris 10
    i tried to type
    emacs
    from a shell, but it responds me with
    emacs: command not found
    when i install solaris 10, is emacs installed by default or i have to
    install it by myself?
    I am very new to solaris, can anybody help me?
    thank you in advance.

    Emacs 21.3 is part of the Solaris10 Companion CD.
    The CD image is available for download on the Solaris10 download site.
    Various versions of Emacs are also available as individual downloads ( pkg-add ) from the Sun Freeware site, as well as, a number of other sites that support the Sun OSes. ................John.

  • Advantages to using iMessage?

    Hi, are there any advantages to using iMessage if you're on a plan with unlimited taik and text? iMessage uses data on the 4GLTE network if one is not on a Wi-Fi connection, so why use iMessage when you have unlimited text messages? I'm curious; I like iMessages, but why use data if you're on a tiered plan if you don't have to?

        MaceWindu57, we want you to take advantage of every benefit available on our wireless network. The iMessaging feature works great for group text conversations and sending/recieving messages to iPads or iPods. Additionally, this option is also awesome when you're in a location that has no wireless reception as you can send iMessages over Wi-Fi instead. Lastly, iMessaging is a free way to send/recieve text messages for those that don't subscribe to a Messaging Plan.

  • What are the advantages of using ENC for a datasource

    Other than eliminating a tight binding between a EJB and a datasource , what are
    the other considerations and/or advantages of using JNDI ENC to define a datasource
    reference vs a direct lookup of a Datasource in the EJB implmentation?
    For example, are their performance advantages by the datasource being cached in
    JNDI ENC?

    Hello Bryan,
    Basically the main advantage is to not have the tight coupling between the EJB
    and the particular JNDI name that it's bounded to. Please refer to a previous
    post where I addressed this issue (perhaps a few days ago on this newsgroup).
    In addition, you will always gain performance improvements by caching the remote/local
    home objects for your EJBs.

  • Advantages of using partitions for tasks

    I like my setup on one partition.  But I'm wondering, are there advantages to using separate partitions for /, /home, /boot, and swap?
    Simple question, but I'd like to know the answer from many sources, cause it seems like the type of question that has multiple answers.

    My laptop and a little server in the home which I'll set up to the face the internet at some point so I can get to files/music etc have split partitioning: / /usr /var /home /tmp (via tmpfs) and separate /boot (needed for lvm/encryption/funny filesystems). I set up the partitions on advice of some of the hardening guides (see wiki). As well as allowing for problems with huge log files crashing the system as mentioned above, the idea is to have separate partitions to restrict what can be done in each area of the file system via mounting options in fstab. Eg, one of the options you could give to /var and/or /home would be noexec, so no exectuables/scripts could be run. If someone breaks in, it should make it harder to gain complete control.
    It's prob overkill, but I am a big fan of peace of mind It doesn't take much longer to set up (make it lvm so you don't have to worry about getting the partition sizes wrong) and it doesn't hinder how my system runs in any way.

  • Advantages of using OPPQ tcode

    Hi ,
    We use OPPQ tcode to maintain MRP parametes with respect to a specific plant and we also have individual tcodes to maintain MRP paramters - like "MRP Controllers, Planning Horizon,Floats,Rescheduling etc". Is there any specific reason/advantages to use OPPQ tcode to maintain MRP parameters instead of using individual tcodes to maintain MRP parameters?. Thanks in advance.

    Using OPPQ we can copy the MRP parameters of an existing plant to a newly created plant in one-go.
    If we know the parameters of an existing plant it makes sense to copy it directly through this txn instead of individual maintenance.Also any 'particular' data can be changed as per your requirement in the new plant easily.
    Apart from the above advantage the 'reference plant' option in OPPQ helps us in reduced data maintenance w.r.to 4 parameters namely Plg cycle/Plg calendar/ROC profile/Rounding profile.
    All we need is to create the data in reference plant which is then made available for the planning/new plant automatically.
