Where did you guys get your MSI 655 mobo's?

I've looked everywhere. I cant find a place on the net to purchase a 655.
thanks :D

I haven't seen any HT capable ones out there. I got mine from Knowledge Micro. They were the only ones at the time that clearly said no HT. At the time there were no HT 655Max boards out there. MWave also has them.

Where do you guys get your clients? I need side jobs

Sorry if off topic. I use premiere cs4 and AE. I work for a non-profit org so all my work is for them. I would like to start doing small projects outside of work. I placed ads on craigslist but all i seem to get is spam replys. production hub seems slow. How do you guys put yourself out there? I don't really have any connections.

The MOD's will probably move this to the Video Lounge, as that is the proper place for it, so watch in case it "disappears."
In my case, most of my clients come either from my still client-base, or via word of mouth. Many of the latter seem to come from my circle of "friends," and from people related to my social endeavors, i.e. networking.
One possibility would be to offer to do pro-bono editing for other not-for-profit groups. With permission, add full credits, including contact info. I sit on a few charity boards and we often do some major AV productions for the events. As these involve much more than just editing, and I also have a full "dance card," we use some pro-bono (in kind donations) productions. All of our printed materials have full credits to the production houses, and we ask that each do a full credit portion. For materials that we hand out at the events, or use in pre-event promotion, we ask that those production houses put their credits on the printed discs. This obviously helps us (pro-bono production), so we want to help them. I will also donate editing time, where appropriate, to those suppliers, should they need additional work.
Back when I was shopping my portfolio more actively, I donated my services to organizations like the Denver Art Directors Club, and the Denver Ad Federation. I picked up dozens of clients from the donated projects. It also gave AD's and Creative Directors an opportunity to work with me on the pro-bono projects, so that they knew my capabilities and personality - at no charge to them.
Lot of good comes from doing a "favor" under the right circumstances.
Good luck, and look for this to go to the Lounge.

[Edit] I see that the MOD's DID move the thread to the Lounge. This is where I would have put it too. Hope that the OP finds it here. If they saw any of the early replies, should not be an issue.

Where do you guys place your Mac in your live rigs?

I've been trying to do live gigs with a single 88 key controller (a Yamaha Motif 8 or a Motif ES8 as I've got both), with my MBP on the 2ne tier of my keyboard stand (using a shelf of all things). Most drops nicely down onto the right side of the Motif and it's usable that way.
Thing is... I'm really wanting to use both Motif's live. Sure, I can zone MainStage to death and use all 88 keys that way, but my head wants strings and horns to be "somewhere else" than on the same keyboard as pianos, organs and other synths.
So... 2nd controller probably going to happen, but the Mac's got to go somewhere, and I want it somewhere "within reach".
So, what-ya-all-usin'?
I've got a 17" MPB.

Gotta say I was embarrased to write back to any public forum that I ended up using Velcro (indeed klittenband in Dutch :)).
Oh the shame of it all... but hey, it works...
So, if you were to do this... the velcro "pads" are taller than the rubber feet on the bottom of the Speck cover - on a flat, hard surface the MBP wants to "slide" a bit easier than normal, but for everyday use not a problem. and seriously, the MBP is going nowwhere while velcroed onto it's spot...
Yeah, I've got a Motif 8 and an ES8. Love the sounds out of these things. I kept my classic 8 because there was something different about the sound between the two. The ES is transparent, the classic has a "bump" to it that's a bit like always have some resonance in the filters... it "barks" a bit, and somehow, that's a good thing.
So, live, or at least with MainStage, it's a pain in the total rear to move stuff around in a coordinated fashion between MainStage and the Motifs. If MainStage would sent out program changes, it would be easy, but it doesn't. Could do it the other way around, and set the program changes MainStage to respond to, that proved cubersome as well, especially if you copy/paste,drag/drop patches around between different concert files...
So... in the end, I using MainStage for all sounds, which means that I don't have any of the Motif's kickin' Rhodes and Wurly's happening. For piano, I'm using Ivory although I've got to say that the Motif pianos really are great. Organs are EVB3 to which the Motif simply holds no candle.
So, I've also got the Korg Legacy stuff, including the M1 thing with all the T patches, although the star in that setup is the WaveStation...
Horns... Need to do something about this... but I've never liked sample-driven horns... FM? a bit "wanky" and too many sine waves... need some kind of fat analog thing "under" the samples... haven't got that right yet...
Remember, this is a live rig in a band with two guitar players... As the synth and organic instruments guy, I've got "my place" in this band... hey, I'm happy with the sound I generating, I hear it through a set of in-ear monitors, I'm getting a lot of questions about where "all that sound is coming from" so it must sound okay in the mix in the house too.
I'm capable of doing my own sound design so it turns out that I can get all the pads etc that I need out of the Logic Studio suite of softsynths and the EXS24...
We're going to cover that Amy Winehouse song "Valerie". that's a lot of stuff. Tremolo strings, there's pad underneath that, there's that tubular bell, another bell that enunciates most of the chord changes, then those individual horns, wickedly (oh that's natural) out of tune with each other. that should be a good workout for MainStage...
The Motifs have simply GREAT feeling keybeds... I tried one of the m-audio 88 key controllers - cool - LOTS of knobs. They generate MIDI messages. The sliders and four rotary pots on the Motifs only generate MIDI CC data when in Master mode (more editing to do)... the m-audio controller just felt strange, almost "wrong". Too bad, they're otherwise a great idea and the price is right too.
So yeah, the Motifs are now just controllers, no audio coming out of em, but... should the MBP ever fail, I'd use the Motifs as sound generators too... I used to trust a Yamaha KX88 controller (it generated no sounds either) and a 20 space rack of synths. Kind of the same deal I guess...
At the end of the day, sonically, the Motif's are awesome and they get used, albeit less and less as sound sources in my studio setup. Live, MainStage and a bunch of AUs get the job done. Without Ivory, I would not have chosen this route.
MainStage itself remains a struggle, as I've got repeatable behavior where MainStage corrupts pointers between patches and the underlying components (channel strips, and settings of an AU within a channel strip) while copying/pasting, dragging/dropping without any hint of an error message etc. It just "goes wrong". Most of the time, this happens near the limits of MainStage's memory limits, but reading that display (at least the graphic) is pointless.
Does all this explain why I'm using this the way I am at the moment?

Where do you guys get art for games?

I'm a decent programmer but a terrible artist. Where should I go to get textures and models to use in a game? Do I have to hire someone to make them, or is there an easier/cheaper way?

There is a site uGameDev that if for mac games. They have lots of free* assets for starting out. You just have to download stuffit expander ( yuk, makes me want to kill someone ) to read the .sit archives.
* Some assets are GPL some are uGameDev license. uGameDev basicly states it's free for Mac games so you might wnat to ask before you assume that's and a-ok for java development too.
I have no quams about stealing assets for development, asking and creditinging for a demo, but I would never use a stolen asset in a commercial/shareware game.

Where do you guys store your videos?

Just wondering where mist people store their video, in the movies folder or in iMovie? I currently am importing all the movies taken from my iPhone in the past 2 years to iMovie. A folder named let's say June 2010 has 16 videos in it and so I import that entire folder and create an event called June 2010 and so on. But lately I'm questioning this method cause I can't see a way to see the date of one of those videos once in iMovie, the only thing the event shows me is let's say June 02 through June 27 2010. How do you do it?

Mist people store their video in the cloud.

How did you all get your new alum iMacs so quickly?

As you can see from my profile, it it time for a new Mac! I have been told by various Mac suppliers in my area that they would not get their shipments of alum iMacs until the end of August. I tried to get one through the Apple online store, same release date.
However, since reading this forum, as well as the display forum, I am starting to have second thoughts, due to the calibration and screen quality issues.
Could it be that Apple is delaying shipments now, because they are busy fixing the bugs in the screen?
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks for the replies, folks.
+A handful of people who do not actually own a new iMac have generated a large number of posts about glossy screens and color matching between the iMac monitor and paper printing being unsuitable for professional graphics design work. It's a tempest in a teapot as far as the rest of us go.+
I am beginning to agree with this statement! It is easy getting caught in "the tempest" while one is reading all the various posts. It is heartening to read more and more posters having positive experiences with the new iMacs. I am not a graphic artist, designer, nor a professional photographer. I do use iphoto and photoshop to "tweak" my family photos. I also enjoying tinkering with idvd and imovie with my kids. My son especially enjoys making stop action Lego movies! My PowerPC has handled these tasks admirably, yet slowly, so it is time to move on.
I don't rush into any purchase of this sort without extensive research and reading. I obviously get full value out of my computer purchase (10+ years since the last one), and I don't feel the need to buy another computer anytime soon.
Now I just need to decide on the 20" or the 24". Any thoughts?

Where Did You Get Your MacBook?

For those that have a MacBook, where did you purchase it from? Even with the student discount, purchasing from the Apple store doesn't provide any savings because of the taxes (~$84.00 in NY). I know Amazon.com sells it, but it's pre-order.

No need to get defensive. I wasn't saying that people shouldn't use the Apple Store. I was saying that unless Apple recognises your problems as problems, they will not do anything for you. That is to say, issues such as heat, whine and other common issues people worry about here on this forum will not be addressed by the Apple Store geniuses because they don't consider these problems out of specifications. This also means that if you have these issues and decide you can't live with them,you most probably will not be able to return a macbook of MBP to them without a restocking fee.
Believe me, I was amazed that they were so unwilling to consider not charging me a restocking fee. I was very calm, told them about the issues (whine, heat, loose battery, warped lid) and told them that over the past 15 years as an Apple user I have never felt disappointed with an Apple product except for this one. I told them that I have purchased items for tens of thousands of dollars from Apple over the years and asked them if they would at least consider charging me just half the restocking fee given that these are problems SO MANY people are having. There are OBVIOUSLY issues with the MBPs. The guy (who claimed to be the 'lead' rep there) refused and told me, in the same breath, how much they 'love' my business, pointing me in the direction of the checkout so I could line up to get refund, minus the $200 fee for beta testing. How insulting and disingenuous is that!
There are stores that will accept your claim that an item is defective. Since Apple is the mothership they decide what is within spec while some other stores just trust you when you say your notebook has excessive heat problems or whines and therefore needs to be returned. Given the many problems reported, I would recommend anybody to buy from a store with a more generous and no hassle return policy. Getting an exchange will not help if all units have the same problems....

I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car pato caa パトカア　they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.
I am getting off the topic but I am at a loss to fix this problem when they hold the keys and i have all the info to verify my ID.

How are you guys powering your laptops in your cars ???

Hi guys,
Although I have been using computers since the first pc appeared, I only recently decided to get a laptop. I got a Lenovo B560 and have been absolutely delighted with it.
However, I am perplexed at the fact that there does not seem to be any easy options for using the laptop in the car on long trips etc ? I do not see any type of 12 volt adapter listed in the accessories ?? A google search shows a few "generic" brand power converters but I have always been leary of using anything but oem type equipment.
Anyway, how are you guys powering your machines while mobile ??
Thanks,
Bill

Your tip size is 2.5mm x 5.5mm, 19volts, and your current adapter is 90watts, right?
Your tip size is the same as what is in the y450, y460, y550p, y550, y560, and the y730.
The y730 is listed under the adapter listed above as taking the 4R 4319 tip, which is the same size as yours.
The tip, Pt. # 46 4319 is listed as an optional tip for the ultraslim adapter, Pt. #4IN8460, that tip has to be ordered separately from the adapter, it doesn't come with it.
Scroll to the bottom of the link for the adapter and you'll see the listing for the 19 volt tip, pt. #4R 4319.
All this is assuming that you have integrated graphics.

Which CPU Cooler did you use for your CPU?

Hi guys, just wondering, what CPU Cooler did you use in your mega 865?
Did you use the Intel or the MSI CPU cooler?
Which do you think is better?
I used the MSI CPU Cooler, Which I think is better cause it has a copper base which can transfer heat faster. Also the heatsink must have been designed for the case too.

^
The Mega 865 came with an additional "extra page" on how to install the Intel CPU Heat Sink into the 865, so it could be that msi thought that intel's solution was better? The manual of course had how to install the msi heat sink, so rather than printing the manual again, they provided an extra information sheet.

How do you guys like your GFX5900XT's???

Hey im in the market for a new computer and Ive been searching around for a good video card for the money. Well i came across PCSTATS review of the MSI
FX5900XT.
http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=1543
It blew me away that a card priced less than half could overclock so high and reach 5950 Ultra like speeds while still being stable.
I came here to ask how you guys find your 5900XTs and what (if any) overclocking issues you may have. Is it really that good?
Thanks

Here's how you can get your Fox 25 back.

You'll need to live close enough to Needham to pick up the off-air signal and you'll also need an antenna, which you can pick up at your local radio shack or best buy. After you pick up your off-air antenna and connect directly it to your HDTV, go into your TV's setup menu using your televisions original remote control, change the antenna type to "Off-Air" or "antenna" (as opposed to "Cable" or "QAM") and then select scan to find free off-air channels. Once you've tuned WFXT, you're ready to use your FiOS TV remotes "TV Input/AV" button (in the bottom left corner of the FiOS TV Remote) to switch between WFXT off-air and your FiOS TV settop box. You can view my youtube video showing how I did this on my television.

Good info..
Where did you buy the antenna?
Thanks

walmart, bestbuy, radioshack, target, kohls, etc, etc
If you are close enough to the transmitter you may not even need an antenna as a length of coax might be enough.

How did you set up your spouses account?

How did you set up your spouses iOS device, iCloud account, etc? And what do you recommend?
My wife and I have one iMac we share (with two login accounts - so basically two computers), an iPad, and two iPhones. Since there are certain things we really like to share between accounts (PhotoStream, Find My iPhone, Documents/iCloud Drive), we've shared the same master iCloud account for the last few years. This has had some drawbacks with things we *don't* want to share, such as we now have to sync our Safari bookmarks, and our keychain/logins for personal websites sometimes overlap, or the "Recent Contacts" shows the last people my wife contacted, not mine, etc.
The pros have outweighed the cons, but it has always left me wanting.
And now that things have changed a bit with iOS 8 and iCloud Drive, Handoff, and Family Plan. I figured now would be a good time to revisit our setup and what would work best for our family. (Of course, this might be a bit premature, with the looming new Photos App from Apple coming, that might make us buy storage in iCloud, but if you have any forethoughts into that, I'd appreciate hearing them!)

You may wish to look at alternatives to sharing the items you've been sharing. For example, you could use shared streams instead of my photo stream, in many ways it might be better, that way you share selected items rather than everything. You really don't need to share Find my phone, you can still use find my phone to find a device associated with any account if you sign in with that account, if you want to see where someone is find friends is a much better choice. You can also share links to iWork documents using iCloud document by document.
