What applecare EUROPE suggests about the horizonal lines

I have the horizontal lines problem on my new PB too. After several calls to applecare EUROPE I got support from the "second support level". I got an email-address to mail pictures and links of discussion boards to demonstrate this bug.
My questions: Can APPLE fix it or not? It is within spezification or not? If I have to wait more than this 10 days to refund, can I (if Apple can/will not fix it) refund it anyway?
Yesterday applecare called back. its comment: "we are working on it, but there is still no order to fix it" with other words: we recognize the problem but have no idea what to do how. Applecare suggests 2 options: 1) live and wait with this lines (perhaps we can fix it) or 2) refund. Not very good information.
powerbook g4 with horizontal lines Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Due to all the discussions here and elsewhere with comments like "within spec" I called applecare one's again. This time applecare suggests me to refund or to upgrade to the 17" powerbook (no admission about a known problem we are working on it). The "overtime" of my refund-limit would not be a problem, because I had create a case-number within this period. So I called the applestore. the comment was short and clear: NO refund possible. After more then 2 hours of calling to applestore, applecare, "appletechnics" and "applecustomer" (in german: Kundendienst) I got the final goal: "we take the book back and send you a new one".
NO - that's exact what I DIDN'T want.
After all this I get a new one probably with the same horizontal lines. But after all the discussions with about a dozen of people I lost my energy to explain and explain one's again what's the topic in my casenummer:
Apple please tell us: are the horizontal lines within spec or not AND for all the time you are thinking about this simple question - can we refund anyway, when you says it is within spec. That's all.
But unfortunately I didn't rich the point. I think with this kind of organisation, where more than a handfull people are involved in one simple case it's not possible to move outside of simple problems. what a shame for apple!
NOW: powerbook 667 with 1 gb ram & 80 gb hd Mac OS X (10.4.3)

What can I do about the vertical lines on my iMac screen?

For the past few days there have been 2 lines, one a solid, definite white, the other faded toward the bottom. It's been almost 5 years since I bouight it, so out of warantee, but isn't there some solution, other than (ouch) buying a new one?

Had the same problem but with red vertical line to right of screen. Called support and was told this was either a problem with screen itself or video that is displaying lines on screen. Support was very patient and talked me through shutting down mac then holding down certain keys ( I forgot which ones) as I turn the power back on. Try calling support. Hope this helps.

I am novice to LabView programming. Any suggestion about the the good programming style will be of great help. Thanks.

I just wrote a small program for reading a ASCII file and writting the numbers to Arrays. Files are enclosed for reference. Any suggestion about the programming style quality or what is the best way for LabView programming will be of great help. Thanks in advance.

I'm home from work today so ... here's my modification to your VI. Use it with you existing data. As you get more exposed to LV's existing tools, you'll discover the shortcuts. No loops are necessary for your task.
Hope this helps.

What do you think about the html5?

I've been seeing developers philosophizing about the future, and I want to know what do you think about the brand new html5?
mainly because the html5 can take out of the market technology ( flex ).
thanks for the opinion!!!
[email protected]

Yep this is most definitely not just a rumor, I've found plenty of sources talking about this.
Here's someone's take on HTML5, a non-Adobe perspective, from a Silverlight developer. I thought this would be interesting to mention. Not sure I agree 100% with everything said (IE may not be most used browser and I don't believe in DRM), but it's an interesting read anyway:
Yes, you can do a LOT of stuff with HTML5 + JS that Silverlight is good for. But HTML5 will only reach Candidate Recommendation status in 2012 - if Silverlight keeps the current pace, it will be at V7 by then.
HTML5 will only get you approximately what Silverlight had at V1.0. A Canvas element, some video playback capabilites, and a Javascript programming model. Can you imagine how further advanced Silverlight 4 is at the moment?
Actually, scratch that - the video quality and availability of HTML5 is a lot worse than what Silverlight has to offer. There is no DRM, no Smooth Streaming, not even full screen! No GPU acceleration either. Even the codec HTML5 has to support is not standardized! This results in Firefox 3.6 having only Theora decoder, and Youtube experimenting with HTML in H.264 (on the same day FF3.6 launched), only playable in approx. 4-5% of the world's browsers.
Internet Explorer is still the most widely used browser on the web, and does not have HTML5. Currently, there are more Silverlight capable browsers browsing the web than HTML5 compatible ones. I don't think that in the next 3 years you will be able to create an HTML5 app and hope that at least 50% of the world's population can view it without switching browsers. (and remember: installing a plugin is a lot less hassle than switching to a new browser!)
HTML5 will not be truly cross-browser standard for quite a long time, if ever. There are too many things that the browser developer can do as they wish - just think about the aforementioned video codec issue. There are too many little differences in each browser's Javascript implementation to make it really portable.
The developer story: nothing in the HTML + JS world comes close to the awesome Visual Studio and Expression Blend tools. Javascript is cool for small apps, but cannot hold a candle to C# when it comes to serious development. Fighting with browser and OS incompatilities takes up a huge amount of time for any HTML website or web app - with Silverlight you don't have this.
Just compare what the best HTML / Ajax company in the world (Google) did with maps, and what MS did to see the difference. Go tohttp://maps.google.com/ (watch out - the Streetview part is in Flash, not Ajax), and compare it to http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/. That is the difference I am talking about.
Of course he means (or should have meant) Flex/Flash rather than just Flash. As for the GWT and other AJAX fanboys who I guess think browser compatibility problems are going to be a thing of the past (or won't be a drag on corporate bottom lines - haha), it makes you wonder what other wild fantasies they're envisioning for the future. Next they'll come and tell us XML-based protocols are going to be as fast as AMF...

What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

It should be a good choice. I recently got the 5C which typically is $99 with supported carriers. Verizon, AT&T, Sprint provide attractive pricing with a two year contract or it you are adding a line to your current service. I have several friends using the 4S, and they have been very pleased with them.

What is so "Pro" about the MacBook Pro?

"Pro" is short for professional and the Apple brand has been synonymous with creative professionals for at least 20 years... I know, asI am one of them.
Now, the MAC PRO (tower) is no doubt, a professional grade machine. With 4 hard drives, 2 DVD drives, 4 expansion bays, 5 USB ports and 4 Firewire ports, and a whopping 128GB RAM, I'd say it lives up to the name "Pro". This machine IS the industry standard in film editing, recording studios, graphic design, ect... The one catch, is that it's not portable...
In come the MAC BOOK PRO. It's lightweight and has excellent battery life which is ideal for portability.
Now here's what I'm getting at: When you're on the road, at a meeting, or working in the field, you're probably not going to need all of the hardware of the Mac Pro, but only 2 USB ports? That sounds like a joke to me!
Say you meet someone at a cafe and you decide to transferring some files from your USB drive to his... That's it, you're done for USB ports. You can't even can't grab a charge for your phone, your ipad, plug in a digital camera or whatever because it only has 2 USB ports. And it really annoys me when I see these PC guys with laptops half the price of a MacBook and they're sitting there with all kinds of stuff plugged in. Notebooks like the Inspiron's and ASUS have 5 USB ports... FIVE!!!
So I ask you, "what's so pro about the MacBook Pro?" Having to constantly plug and unplug peripherals is quite amateur to me.

rick268,
the “Pro” in MacBook Pro was in comparison to the “Pro-less” MacBook. If the two USB ports on a MacBook Pro don’t suffice for your needs, then you can either bring along a powered USB hub, or you can simply not get a MacBook Pro — get one of its competitors instead, which has the number of USB ports which you need.
I know I can get a USB hub, or better yet, I've been looking into a thunderbolt hub- I just wish I didn't have to sacrifice ports in Apple's conquest to make the thinnest laptop in existance.

What can I do about the hackers in my devices.

What can I do about the hackers in my devices. Pls help i need to know what I can do to take the hackers out of my devices.

Aww drat! I was going to recommend "AttackA-Hak" which was free from VapourWare Inc.
a) The likelihood of your Apple device being hacked is millions to one against.
b) If it was, Apple would be very interested in seeing your device as you would be one of the first.
c) Can I have whatever you're drinking please ...

Suggestions about the best tool for quality check for an ADF application

Hi All,
I need a few suggestions about the best tool for quality check in our ADF applicaiton.
ours is a small size WebCenter Portal application which neither uses any task flows nor consumes any portlets.
It has many jspx pages that use ADF components like table etc, consume web services using web service clients, and has some java classes.
We have come across below option to implement the code quality tools.
1. Jdeveloper inbuilt Staus option in View tab
2. PMD extension for Jdeveloper
3. Red Samurai
Few more suggestions or best practices would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Usha

What do you think about the new and improved SiriusDecisions Waterfall?

SiriusDecisions launched their new and improved Demand Waterfall this week at their Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona. For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I have attached the PDF for your viewing pleasure. What do you think? What's strong? What's weak? Do you agree with Tony Jaros that teleprospecting is a required step in the Marketing Qualification process?

It makes a lot of sense from our perspective. Our sales organization has always generated the bulk of our leads, so it makes sense to account for them and to build programs to support them. It was a great conference - my first SiriusDecisions Summit. I came away both energized and overwhelmed.
Our Inside Sales team qualifies almost all inquiries via telephone, so it makes sense to me that "teleprospecting" is a required step. The only exceptions are sales-generated leads, so the waterfall reflects that perfectly.
What I like most about the new waterfall is that it creates a clear structure for us to focus more on developing lead nurturing and pipeline acceleration programs specifically for teleprospecting- and sales-generated leads. I'll admit that we've neglected this (simply including those contacts in our marketing-generated lead nurtures). Furthermore, it reinforces the need to tailor nurtures to the buyer's stage in the buying process. We tend to move all of our contacts through the same campaign and nurture activities as if they're progressing together, which obviously isn't the case.
I'd be interested in learning how other Eloqua users are getting data back from their CRM on a contact who has turned into a qualified lead. How do you find this information out? Do you then put them through an individual nurture that is focused on accelerating the deal?

What's so good about the Venture?

Can someone help me to understand this? Lately around here I've been hearing a lot of talk about people applying for or wanting the Venture. I'm just now starting to do my research and it's going to take me several days to get through all the recent threads. I'm going to read all of them but I may get antsy and apply for something before then. I understand that your venture miles can be redeemed for statement credits on travel. You get 2x miles on all purchases. But wouldn't 2% from Citi DC or Fidelity Amex be the same thing but way better? Even if you travel all the time, having the option to spend your points elsewhere can't be a bad thing right? Plus the Venture has an AF. So from where I'm sitting, the Venture looks way worse than Citi DC or Fido Amex even if you travel. What am I missing here?
The signup bonus makes it worth the triple pull just barely, so I may apply if I can think of a good reason. Convince me to apply for this card! I don't care about a high limit on a card that won't be my main spender and has a high APR... I have 0% util so padding limits isn't useful to me. Is that the only reason people are going nuts over this card?

Is that the only reason people are going nuts over this card? Historically this forum goes all starry-eyed when creditors start handing out outsized limits. To be brutally honest, my Venture app - I don't care about the bonus, I do care about the limit not on that card, but when I go apply for a couple of cards I do care about (non-trivial lines on balance carrying cards just in case I need them to float in times of financial stress rather than just filing a BK and being done with it, even 3 months either way is enough time for me to get something to start paying down my debt). Beyond that don't need it, sitting on a CSP pre-approval which will be my long-term travel card, and I have a Fidelity Amex already though I wouldn't mind a CLI on that someday and for acceptance and online transaction fee reasons I'd rather have a Citi DC, but end of the day we've seen far too often that current limits beget future limits, and my limits are incredibly low compared to most people on this forum but now it's time to do something about that as I get close to credit card portfolio completion. I don't need 200K limits, I do need more than the 34K I'm on now and I do need lower APR's than what I have access to now for financial defense reasons. Venture is part of the two step process to that for me, nothing more.My thought pattern exactly.
