Which HDD should I use?

Hey all i just got the WD 120GB SE (8mb buffer) drive as I was running out of space; I know I can't believe I'm using a IDE drive either! What I'm curious about is whether I should run my OS off of the WD or the 10K rpm IBM.
I'm leaning towards the IBM, as it would just have the OS & apps, and then use the WD for mp3, vid, etc.
Also anyone know anything about Partition Magic 7.01? I currently have the IBM split into two 9GB partitions, and I want to merge the two partitions but I'm getting a error ever time saying something about FAT. All of my drives use FAT32. I'm thinking of keeping them seperate too? Any suggestions? My OS & apps usually take up only 4-5gb.

actually, i don't have any video, but i was going to start trying to do video capture (i have programming i want to move from my replayTV). most of my WD will be mp3 & games (if i really ever start to play), and back-ups of my documents & outlook settings.
as for serial ata... i just bought this WD hdd, you want me to go serial now??? jk. actually i was reading about serial ata on tomshardware, and was not too impressed with the performance as of today, i understand it will scale much better, but that's for another day. plus this drive only cost me $120. $1 a gig pretty much, oh but i had to pay tax, so more like $1.08 a gig.
richard: ntfs on all drives you think?
wonkanoby: fat32 on all partitions other than wd?
thanks in advance guys.

You could use Microsoft Office for Mac, but I would recommend iWork! It's a better set of applications for a much better price. I have used both and I prefer it over Office. And Pages can not only open Word documents, you can also save documents in Word format. My brother and I both used iWork as an Office substitute when we were in college (I graduated a few years ago and he just graduated last night) and haven't had any compatibility issues.

I have down loaded Aurora,Beta4,firefox. Which one should i use

I have down loaded Aurora,Beta4,and Firefox. Which won should i use.'

That is up to you to decide. For some details about the different versions see https://developer.mozilla.org/devnews/index.php/2011/04/07/new-development-channels-and-repositories-for-rapid-releases/
If you have not used to testing software you should stick with the release version (Firefox 4.0.1).

Which CPU should I use

Hello,
our company want to buy new computers for the developers.
We have to use Windows XP as our OS because of third party products.
We develop J2SE + J2EE.
So my question:
Which CPU should we use?
I searched at google but didn't found any usefull sides about benchmarking an J2SE VM or J2EE VM.
Intel or AMD?
Are there some issues to be regarded?
Is the behavior of the VM different if you use an Intel or an AMD? (X86)
Our AppServer is JBoss 3.2.3.
Has Intel ore AMD some magic improvements for the SUN Java VM?
Any answer would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oliver

Olli_ger,
Thanks for asking. To add more to the question, what about dual- and
multi-processors, such as Opteron 2xx and 8xx processors?
That is, can, and to what extent, does the Java compiler and the JVM
utilize multi-processors? And how is this done? Threads parceled out?
Using what algorithms? Are there "best practices" for writing code
that can exploit these chips?
Given the recent emergence of dual-core processors from both AMD and
Intel I would think Sun would have a white paper on this, but I've not
been able to find anything.
As I'm about to build a new system, and am looking at a dual processor
board that could take two dual-core chips, I'd really like to know.
Thanks again for opening the issue.

Which listener should be used for JTextArea

Hi,
I need to add a listener for JTextArea particualy when
the text in the jtextarea is changed. I don't think
mouse listener is enough, since the user can use tab to
get to the jtextarea and edit the text. In this case,
which listener should I use. Sample code would be
helpful.
In addition, I have a problem with the jtextarea that
when user uses tab to go to different gui components,
such as jtextfield, jcombobox, jtextarea, jlist, etc, the
tab stays in the jtextarea and keeps appending to it. It does
not go to next component, such as jlist. How can I make it
work?
Thanks in advance,
Pin

It doesn't work. Are you using 1.4 or 1.3? I am using
1.4.
In the 1.4 API, it says that isManagingFocus is
"Deprecated".
Here is what I have:
JTextArea descrptArea = new JTextArea() {
public boolean isManagingFocus() {
return false;
descrptArea.setRows(3);
descrptArea.setLineWrap(true);
descrptArea.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
// DO SOMETHING
I found the following code which says it will do it.
However, I got the exeception:
java.lang.ClassCastException:
n: javax.swing.KeyStroke
at java.util.TreeMap.compare(TreeMap.java:1081)
at java.util.TreeMap.put(TreeMap.java:459)
at java.util.TreeSet.add(TreeSet.java:205)
Set forwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke('\t'));
forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEven
.VK_TAB,
InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys
(KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
forwardTraversalKeys);
Set backwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
t.VK_TAB,
InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK));
backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEve
t.VK_TAB,
InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK |InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys(
KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
backwardTraversalKeys);
Any idea???
PinI'm not using 1.4 but the class cast exceptions look like they come from : Set forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet() etc
try : TreeSet forwardTraversalKeys=new TreeSet()
you cant cast from a Set to a TreeSet because a TreeSet is a Set but a Set is NOT a TreeSet.
hope this helps.

Which situation should we use the text item with the item category TATX

Dear experts!
Thank you for your attention!
I am confused with text item (TATX).
which situation should we use the text item with the item category TATX????
Someone told me that the text item is dummy and should be used as a manual of certain standard item. But the manual may be a book or several papers and it also takes up some inventory not a dummy.
So, could some body tell me what the text item (TATX) exact is and what function it has.
Best regard!
Tangdark

Hi,
you can use TATX if you like to enter a text and to print some information between the item lines.

IMAC 2010 which HDD can I use to replace the malfunctioned Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB?

iMAC 2010 which HDD can I use to replace the malfunctioned Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB?

After doing a bit more research, the 2010 iMacs do appear to have a third cable connecting to the hard drive, for the internal temp sensor. This would appear to be the block of 8 pins that are on almost all drives, but they are normally intended for jumpers. Unfortunately I was unable to find any documentation or specs that would indicate this pin block connects to the internal temp sensor on either standard (non-Apple) WD Black or Seagate 7200.12 drives.
I did find some info that may be of some use:
WD: Where to connect an external temperature sensor to a Serial ATA or EIDE hard drive.iFixit: Replace the hard drive, how do I connect the hard drive thermal sensor?
Apple Technician Guide: iMac 2010 27" (mid-2010)
Various discussion threads I found through google searching indicated some people succeeded with installing an external temp sensor on the body of the drive.
Sorry I couldn't help more.

Which object should i use ?

Hi,
I have a methode that returns several values of different types. Which objet should I use to return these values ? I thought of Vector but somebody told me that there is a better object than Vector.
thanks for your help !
Tex

First, always use an interface over an object if it exists. So, your code should always declare the instance variable as List, not ArrayList or Vector or LinkedList. This allows the implementation to be optimized for the task at hand (e.g. LinkedList for arbitrary insertions or deletions of data, ArrayList for better Iterator performance, etc.) while using the interface for the common List methods (e.g., get(), add(), remove(), iterator(), etc.)
Second, avoid Vector. Sun specifically states in the Collections tutorial that ArrayList is preferred over Vector.
