Which casing would you choose???

Hi all, I'm thinkin of gettin a casing for my 3rd gen nano. After browsin' through the Apple store, found 2 which I really like: Belkin Remix Acrylic Case and the Belkin leather folio.
Here are the links for yoou guys to have a look: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?n=ipodn ano3&fnode=home/shopipod/ipodaccessories/cases&nplm=TP799LL/A&mco=EB91F8EC (Belkin Remix Acrylic Case)
and Belkin leather folio: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?n=ipodn ano3&fnode=home/shopipod/ipodaccessories/cases&nplm=TP791LL/A&mco=497D89F1
I can't seem to decide on which one to get!! So, I'd like to ask all of you, especially those who have either one of the casings, which one would you get for me?
Also, the store is in the States but I stay in Singapore, would I still be able to purchase it, and what is the price for the casings in Singapore dollars? The Apple online Singapore store doesn't seem to have the leather folio.

Hey, hopefully I can offer a suggestion...
Those two cases are quite different from each other. One is a leather folio with a clasp and the other is a clear case. You first have to decide which type of case you want.
I purchased the exact same Belkin folio for my wife, but in the white+orange colour. She loves it. She likes to put her iPod on shuffle and just let it play while she's on the bus and exercising.
If you are the type of person who changes songs a lot, looks at photos, and watches video, the folio might not be the best, because you are constantly having the clasp open.
Another thing about the Belkin folio is that the pictures are deceiving: the plastic shield doesn't actually cover the clickwheel, only the screen. It's a bit misleading and I was disappointed when my wife opened it and we found that out. Also, the top and bottom the iPod aren't completely covered, so in time it could get scratched.
I still like the case though, as it offers nice protection for the most part, and looks really nice.
The other case is basically a plastic skin. If you like that look and feel, then maybe it'd be for you!
Hope this helps,
Matt

I'm having a similar problem also...

Which keyboard feel would you choose if given a choice Traditional or chiclet

Assuming the layout is identical, which keyboard would you choose for feel and ease of typing
The Traditional Lenovo Keyboard
or
The new chiclet one.
Please note that this has nothing to do with the layout Im asking purely on the ease of typing and
feel of keyboard basis
Thanks

I am rocking the keyboard on my T500 which has been my favorite ThinkPad I've spent more than a week with. I think T500 was the last one IBM really had influence on. On to the answer to your question the answer is hands down the standard keyboard.
ThinkPad Twist S230U-
OS-Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
CPU-Intel Core i7 3517U @ 1.90GHz Ivy Bridge 22nm Technology
RAM-8.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)

Hard drive duke out...which one would you put your life on the line for?

As far as SATA drives go only...
Seagate 320 gig Barracuda (ST3320820AS) vs. Samsung 320 gig HD320KJ vs. factory WD/Apple 250 gig drive. All about the same age (3/07) except for the Apple 250 which is about 8/06.
Which one would you choose for your main drive?
Thanks a bunch!

Everybodys milage seems to vary with Hard drives as does the current quality of certain manufactures. Personally I've been burned numerous times on Seagate drives but that could simply be my luck of the draw. What is really more important is how you use specific drives vs their reliability.
I have a RAID 5 Linux server in my rack for my major archiving. That server has been built with Raptor OS drives (Small ones, 36Gb) as all it has is FC5. The RAID array is built from much cheaper (per Gb) 500Gb WD Caviar drives. In my configuration this comes to about 1.25Tb of RAID 5 storage. I can sustain a full drive failure without losing my data. I can also lose my OS drive, buy an new one, Install Fedora 5 again, and my RAID will still be there. (I've backed up the critical files necessary to support this and I've tested it. It works.)
My MacPro is just about to be rebuilt. I got a Hitachi Ultrastar from Newegg.com
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822145164
I have 4x500Gb WD drives in my Pro configured to be a RAID 1 from 2 1Tb logical volumes. I plan on using this for quick local archive of projects as yanking a 50Gb project from there is still much faster than off my RAID 5 plus my RAID 5 is quickly getting filled from my photography work so I'm using the RAID 1 for my video work. In addition to that, I have a Firewire 800 1TB external drive to run on TimeMachine and back up all my working files on my new OS drive. If I sound paranoid. I am. Just remember no matter WHO's drive you buy, it is, in the end, not a question of IF it might fail, but WHEN. You should plan your work environment expecting your drives will fail and then make sure you have enough backup that you can recover from that. One could argue there may be holes even in my backup plan. There are, but in the end, I can recover everything, baring my home burning down. (and actually I'm covered for that, all be it the latency in the backup is probably on a 2 week cycle).

Some kinds of enhancement... Which would you choose?

Hi all.
There are some kinds of enhancement in SAP.
(EXIT, BADI, OPEN-FI, Enhancement spot ...etc)
If there are some kinds of enhancement match your purpose, which do you choose?
For example, I'm trying to enhance in MM01.
EXIT: MGA00001
BADI: BADI_MATERIAL_REF
Both of enhancement can be function.
I wonder which is the best...
Which would you choose?
and What is the reason?
thanks.

it depends on your requirement.i personally believe in BADI as it include less coding with promising results
there is no such answer which is better it depends on your way of coding or in which you feel comfortable.
For difference beteen BADi/Exit you may search in SCN i'm sure you will get many many examples.i found one for you.

Which server OS would you choose?

Hi,
To choose the better server for running Jdev 11.1.1.5 projects, which one would you prefer?
Win 08 server
Oracle Linux 5.7
Many Thanks & Best Regards,
HuaMin

HuaMin,
I'd chose an OS that:
a). Is officially supported
b). You and/or your company has experience with and is comfortable supporting and tuning
As much as Windows tends to be maligned, if you and your company are well experienced in running Windows servers, then by all means, use Windows. Myself, I'd prefer Linux, but that's because I have more experience in running Linux servers in production.

Which of these macs would you choose for video editing?

The main difference is the MBP has an Serial ATA drive, and the Air has a Flash drive. Also the MPB has 2.9Ghz, and the Air has only 2.0Ghz. Which one would you pick for editing with Final Cut Pro X? (Also curious which one you would pick even if video editing wasn't a concern for you, thanks!)

Thanks for the answer. Didn't realize the 13" MBPs differed from the 15" MBPs. I thought the screen was the only major difference.
Apple fools a lot of people with that. The 13" is really a MacBook and not a "Pro" machine.
The best machine for video editing depends upon what your going to do, full on production or casual home stuff.
A 15" MacBook Pro and a iMac for the casual lightweight stuff and iMove can do the job.
The new MacPro coming out for the heavy duty stuff.
The industry seems to be moving away from Final Cut Pro X as it's been consumerized or something, lacking needed features and moving towards Avid on powerful Mac's or Windows 7 towers.
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2011/07/does-apple-still-care-about-creative-pros/

So perhaps a mix of Avid and Final Cut Pro X if your serious about furthering your career.

Which combination of graphics cards would you choose?

I have a minor dilemma. Due to some strange circumstances I ended up with 2 GeForce 8800 GT's and 1 Radeon X1900 XT.
I use a 30" monitor and 2 additional 20" monitors, thus the need for 2 cards. I certainly don't need 3, and frankly, I don't think the mac pro would handle a 3rd high power card very well in the 3rd or 4th slot anyway.
So now the decision is:
1) Dual GeForce 8800 GT's or
2) 1 GeForce 8800 GT and 1 Radeon X1900 XT
It seems that for gaming there is no question the 8800 GT is better, but the X1900 XT is better for core image performance. What I need to figure out is if core image performance matters at all for any of the programs I use. These programs are used on a daily basis and are usually all open at the same time:
Adobe PhotoShop CS3
Adobe Illustrator CS3
Adobe LightRoom 2 or Bridge CS3 depending
Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
Microsoft Entourage
Microsoft Remote Desktop
Safari
iTunes
Cyberduck
About a million finder windows (OK, 5-10)
(and occasionally) Fusion with Windows XP to test things in Internet Explorer 7
Now, as far as I know, the only real programs that take advantage of core image (or would be slowed down by an 8800 GT) are Apple's Pro Apps like Final Cut Pro, Aperture, etc. I use a different machine for Final Cut Pro and I ditched Aperture for LightRoom so I basically don't use any "Pro Apps" on this machine now.
Do you think I would even notice a difference while working using the 8800 vs the 1900? If not, would it just make sense to go with the Dual 8800's? They're smaller than the 1900, use less power, and run cooler. If someone knows for sure if Adobe CS3 apps run poorly on the 8800 that would probably make the decision for me.
Thanks!

You wish I said that I read the benchmarks at barefeats even though I very clearly said:
"It seems that for gaming there is no question the 8800 GT is better, but the X1900 XT is better for core image performance. What I need to figure out is if core image performance matters at all for any of the programs I use."
Why, after reading that, would you post benchmarks that tell me the 8800 is better for gaming and the 1900 is better for core image. I don't really understand...
Then you went on to talk about ATI 2600's and 3870's so I'm starting to think that maybe you just didn't read my post... I'm not considering a 2600 or a 3870. I tried to explain in my post very clearly that I am in possession of:
2 x 8800 GT's
1 x X1900 XT
Of those 3 cards, which 2 would you put in your computer if you ran the programs I listed above.
Am I really that unclear?
As for your choice of going with a 2600 and a 3870 -- even though that wasn't one of the options and I don't have either of those cards in my possession -- I wouldn't put the 2600 in my computer just because of the noise. The 3870 seems like a great card (almost as good for gaming as the 8800 and amazing core image performance) but I'm not going to go spend $200+ when I have 3 cards sitting on my desk right now that I can use for free. The X1900 was too loud for me and I ended up modifying it with an Arctic Cooling silent kit, and from what I've read the 2600 is even louder than the X1900.

Which One Would You Buy?

Hello to All - My brother already has a 240GB Crucial M500 installed in one laptop, and now he wants to buy a new Crucial SSD around 250GB in size for another machine. He wanted to buy another M500, but they're no longer available, and he isn't too sure which one to choose from the current models. Given the choice, and regardless of price, would you choose the BX100, the MX100, or the MX200?

Thanks for your quick responses, and the link to the article on anandtech.com in particular. ***Edited to remove Crucial competitor***

Which Color Would You Pick??

I have a Pink Mini, I call her, Lauren. Yes! I name my iPods. Anyway, I am getting an iPod Nano 2nd Generation, which color would you get??? (Remember I am a girl!!!) But still, I am asking you what color would you get and If you have one, tell me how its running and would you recommend it to other people???? Thanks!!!

Personally, I'd just go with a color that you like since everyone has their own taste. I was going to buy a new iPod Nano but they don't come in the color I desire which is gold. If they came in gold, I might of scooped one right up. Anyways, I've seen all the new nanos in person and if I had to choose a very plain color that goes with anything silver but if I wanted to be more courageous and adventerous I would go with blue, pink, or green because they are much brighter and more vibrant.

MIDI CONTROLLERS WHICH ONE WOULD YOU CHOSE AND WHY?

Between M-Audio 8v2 , M-Audio 02 , M-AUDIO 49E and M-Audio axiom 25. Which one of these would you choose and why?

The Axiom 25.
For the rotary encoders, pads and memory.
I'd take this over the 49 because both of the keyboards will be pitiful and your better of getting a full size board with hammer action if its about the "piano" feel. These things are great to have at hand when fiddling with synths while setting up in logic.

I'm debating between a Macbook Air or a Macbook Pro which one would you suggest?

I'm debating between a Macbook Air (MC965LL/A) or a Macbook Pro (MD313LL/A) which one would you suggest?
I will be using this for college and taking it to class with me. My biggest fear is that I may be too hard on the Air and damage it, but I like that it is lighter and looks cooler. But which one do you believe is more logical and provides the best computer quality overall?

This is an objective comparison,
Meanwhile, we start from the price of their basic models, considering of course that could get discounts as a student in the Education Store. Required about 100 € more to buy an Air with the same screen size of this Pro and already, in some cases, may be enough to make your own choice.
Assuming a score to score, we could say: Pro 1 - 0 Air
Until recently, the beloved laptop for school purposes was the white MacBook.Orphaned "bianchino", now out of the list for some time now Apple, the Mac that is most on the economic front is approaching the Air 11 "(900 € on the edu store). Air 13 "display offers a native that could be called HiRes, identical resolution to that of Pro 15" base:
Air 11 "(16:9) 1366 x 768 = 1,049,088 pixels
Pro 13 "(16:10 format) 1280 x 800 = 1,024,000 pixels
Air 13 "(16:10 format) 1440 x 900 = 1,296,000 pixels
The comparison on the screens is not to be taken seriously. After all, is what we will see during every second of computer work.
And so the challenge back in a tie: Pro 1 - Air 1
For size and weight comparison is merciless. The Pro is a portable slim, well built and, after all, not too heavy. However, this aspect of the Air is unsurpassed. He created a new category of laptops is so small wonder. The weight is also almost halved with 1.3 kg against 2Kg. For those who are always on the go is a godsend for the university and also the difference in the shoulder is remarkable.
We update our score: Pro 1 - Air 2
The battery is offered in both cases with a duration of 7 hours. 2-Air Pro 3. Another aspect that is rather in favor of a tie on the graphics: Both models use the Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 384MB of DDR3 SDRAM condivisa.Pro 3 - Air 4.
In academia, it may not feel quite the need for a Firewire port, but the fact remains that the Air does not have it.
I guess that's the case to score another point: Pro 4 - 5 Air
I scored a little more than necessary to have a complete line of Air, but for the purposes of this comparison we are interested in the value obtained from the Pro 13 'Air base and 13 "base. Both processors are dual core and, as you can see, the little guy gets along very well though with a slower clock. There is also a crucial aspect to consider: these data refer to the computing power but do not take into account the incredible speed-bump-up by SSD. Translated into monetary terms means that if the Pro 13 "is marginally faster when the CPU is under stress (such as video encoding) Air 13" is significantly more responsive in every area. By now you will present the advantages of SSD, as we talk about it constantly, and be assured that we are talking about really obvious differences in the everyday. The advantages obtained clearly outweigh the disadvantage resulting from a delay of a few seconds more in exporting an iMovie or a few seconds to compress a full-bodied zip file (which then increased the write speed scale in part). To assign a score in this area I find then a little 'in difficulty. From the viewpoint of the CPU Pro 13 "is slightly faster but we are sure you can assign an advantage when then every single operation, to start since, requires up to 8 times (the value is clearly approximate) of the time ' Air 11 "? I have no doubt to say that overall performance on the front of the Pro 13 "basis, as configured, is beaten hands down Air 13" base.
I say then: Pro 4 - Air 6 (but wait ... is not over)
Do you know where the above discussion decade? The MacBook Pro is much more expandable: add just € 77 and takes a 60GB OCZ Agility SATA3 that mounts in an instant. At that point, the bill draws on the opposite reactivity with SSD and the difference of the processor, though not so obvious, back to bite. It is also possible to realize different combinations. We have spoken of a disk of only 60GB in effect, but in the Pro can also be used as an adapter to enter the optibay the HDD of 320GB in place of the original SuperDrive. In this way we obtain the speed of the solid disc for the operating system and applications and the increased capacity of a traditional hard drive for archiving. Also, the RAM, which base is 4GB on both, on the Pro can be easily increased to 8GB. To want to do things right we should say that the added cost rises well and lose the initial assumption for which we have assigned a point to Pro for the greater economy.Furthermore, the comparison is based, only the basic models, however, the counter remains a valuable expandability, both now and in the future: if after some time you should decide to improve the performance of your Mac, is with the Aircan only change SSD (mSATA but those are expensive), while the Pro will have more flexibility.
u point for the Pro: Pro 5 - 6 Air
With the 2011 version of the MacBook Air has resumed the backlit keyboard, but still (and will) not have an Ethernet port, Superdrive and the infrared receiver. The absence of the reader / writer is a point against him, this is indisputable
equal footing Pro 6 - Air 6. As Apple moves fast towards a future where this will no longer be necessary (see installation and operating system software via the web) can still be useful today. It must be said that with less than 30 € you take an external drive efficiently (review) but this still requires to carry around another "element". On a personal level each of us will be evaluated differently this absence, there are those who do not tolerate it and who has already got used to (in extreme cases supported by the Remote Disk feature) but it is still a lack of perspective in a single complete computer , at least at present.
For this reason we say: Pro 7 - 6 Air
pull the money (or better scores ) won the pro of a single point.
i hope it can help you ti choose
