Which is the better option?

Hey, I'm looking at getting a new mac but I'm not sure what's the better option. My choice right now is between the base 21.5 inch iMac or the Mac mini ( $799 model), and my main use for it would be recording instruments, music production, and movies / netflix. The 21.5 inch Mac would only give me 8gb of ram, whereas the Mac mini I'd instantly be able to upgrade to 16gb. Another bonus to the mac mini is that I can hook it up to whatever screen I want including my TV for movies.Also, the firewire on the mac mini would be extremely useful as some of the higher quality recording interfaces use firewire. And from what I understand I can also add a SSD to the mac mini? For these reasons I'm leaning towards the Mac mini but I've been recommended by representatives at apple to get the iMac as it's more powerful supposedly, so I'm not sure which one would be better. I know the iMac has a dedicated graphics card vs the integrated hd 4000 on the Mac mini, but I'm not exactly sure how that affects me for what I plan on using the computer for. I'd have to buy a monitor and mouse + keyboard for the mac mini, so it ends up costing me the same as the base model iMac. Any suggestions/ opinions would be appreciated, thanks.

I would recommend getting the 16GB iMac. If money is an issue then consider using Apples refurbished store, there is no downside to buying from it as they sell current machine, the products have the same warranty as a new machine, and are eligible for AppleCare.
Because you did not compelete a profile we have no idea where on the planet you are located. To find the US refurb store click:

Which is the better option for using windows on mac ...parallel or vm ware fusion

i want to use c# ,.net, c++ , on my macbook pro ....which software i should purchase parallel or vmware fusion

They both work well. I like Fusion. Others like Parallels. Still others like VirtualBox.
They all have free trials, VirtualBox is a free product, so try them for yourself and stick with the one that works best for you.
I opted to install Windows using Boot Camp Assistant.

When I sign in to the Adobe Reader XI (which is the only option that I have to open a pdf document, I will sign in to the Adobe ID sign-in page. After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected. It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option. I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday. All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word. I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through.

Hello Kathie,
Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
Let me know if this converts fine.
Hope to hear from you.

Which is the better processor?

Hi, I've been looking at different cpu benchmarks but some are saying different things. Which is the better processor adobe premiere pro and after effects cs6? Intel core i5 3210M or AMD A8 4500M?

The best benchmark site for Premiere Pro is http://ppbm5.com/
If you are going to edit HiDef you need an i7 or for standard def video at least an i5
The AMD lacks some of the special firmware instructions that PPro uses, so will always be slower than Intel

ToString() and new String(),which is the better?

now,there is very big StringBuffer sb,i want convert it to String s,which is the better:
s=sb.toString();
s=new String(sb);
Thanks.

now,there is very big StringBuffer sb,i want convert
it to String s,which is the better:
s=sb.toString();
s=new String(sb);
Thanks.this is the implementation advice for
toString(StringBuffer)
This method can be coded so as to create a new String object
without allocating new memory to hold a copy of the character sequence. Instead, the string
can share the memory used by the string buffer. Any subsequent operation that alters the
content or capacity of the string buffer must then make a copy of the internal buffer at that
time. This strategy is effective for reducing the amount of memory allocated by a string
concatenation operation when it is implemented using a string buffer.
so decide urself

Creating default Row which one is better option

hi,
for creating dummy row in ViewObject which one is better and appropriate option..
1) CreateInsert as default activity
2) Creating row in Create method of ViewObjectImpl
Regards
Kiran
Edited by: Kiran S on Aug 26, 2010 4:38 AM

Kiran,
CreateInsert is an action that is exposed via a data control. If you invoke this action, it will call the Create method of your View Object, so your question really doesn't make sense. If you need to have a row created and inserted into the row set of a VO, then using the CreateInsert action in a task flow will work just fine.

Which is the better app for devloping a freelance design website?

Hey Forum
I'm putting together a website for my freelance design business. I've rough out the site, but now I'm stuck between using Dreamweaver or Flash. The site is relatively simple with the common home, about, philosophy portfolio and contact pages. I know that Dreamweaver is a real workhorse and is very stable. But as a designer I want a little more glitz and freedom which Flash seems to have. If I do use Flash, I'm worried about bandwidth, search capabilities and device compatibilities.
Any insight would very helpful
KatyDad

The stability of Dreamweavere will have no little bearing on the stability of your web site--Dreamweaver provides tools, it doesn't teach you how/when to use them. Your decision on which way to go should be based on what it is you are trying to sell. If you are selling web site design, then you may want to temper things towards a non-Flash design base so that you can demonstrate your coding skills alongside the graphics aspects of it. If you are selling Flash-based designs, then Flash would be a good vehicle to demo the work itself. If Flash is not a big part of what you are selling, then it should not be a big part of what you put on display. But you can always mix things up, showing Flash elements and html/css elements, if the intention is to show well-rounded skills across the design options palette.

Which is the Best option to work with Database using Polling or AQ or Event

Hi,
We can initiate a BPEL process in a SOA composite from database using Database Polling . But few people suggest not to use polling because resource will always be busy polling and heavy load can cause issues.
So they suggest to use AQ to push message to initiate the BPEL process or SOA composite.
Is this true??
Also we can use EDN to intiate a process from PL/SQL.
So is it a better option than AQ.
What are the factors we should consider while using Poling ,AQ or Event based system?

Pradosh

Any pointer to this Question??

Which is the better iTouch size?

New here and I'm trying to decide which iTouch to buy my wife. I have been going back in forth between the 32GB http://amzn.to/wgM5BX and the 64GB http://amzn.to/zzTs2U
She listens to books and music and I image will get into a few games and apps. She will also probably want to have some pictures of our kids on there too. I usually thought you should buy the bigger size to future proof the purchase, but now I hear you can stream your music and other stuff, so maybe the hard disk size isn't as relevant. Can anyone give me some feedback on what size to get a medium user of an itouch? Am I making a mistake and should I be looking at the 8GB?

Personally I think that 6gb is too small even for a medium user which is the available memory for the 8gb ipod touch. When it comes to memory the bigger the better, lol. I would suggest the 32gb model. 6 gigs won't be enough for music, games and apps. Think also about her music collection, 1,000 songs at 128kbps take about 3-4 gigs of memory and the majority of games use about 100mb of memory. If you are planning on streaming the content then you can get the 8gb version but then that will limit the music playing to just your home or if you go to someone's home you will only have access to their music library.

Which is a better option url iview or bsp iview?

Hi all,
We have so set of BSP applications to be integrated in the portal. Our requirement is that the BSP application has to be stateless. Could any one suggest us which one would be the best option (BSP iview or URL iview) along with the pros and cons.
Thanks and Regards,
Gauri Gosavi.

Hi!
BSPs should always be integrated into the portal as BSP iViews. Whether a BSP application is stateful or stateless is never decided by the portal but by the BSP application. If you want to avoid that the portal takes over the session management then do not use the parameter sap-syscmd=nocookie whithin the definition of the BSP iView.
Hope this helps.

Volker

Which is the better upgrade: EOS 5DS R or EF 400mm f/4 DO IS II USM?

I have the 5D Mark II with a 100-400 mm lens (the old version). As a wildlife photographer, which would be the better upgrade, the EOS 5DS R or EF 400mm f/4 DO IS II USM?

I always assumed lens upgrade first. In this case I was impressed by the new features of the 5DS R because I photograph small birds, often in trees, often at a distance of 30-50 feet, and almost always moving around. I thought the 61 point high density reticular AF might be quick enough to get a photo (that my current set up can't get) and with a file that would allow severe cropping which would make up for the distance.
On the other hand, photographing birds in riparian areas where there is usually poor lighting might suggest the better lens is the answer.
That's basically why I thought to ask others.

Which is a better option : VO on DB View or a VO with two EOs

I have 2 tables:
ITEMS_BASE and ITEMS_TL ( contains all translatable column of base table: ITEM_BASE).
What is better option for me:
1. TO create a DB View on top of ITEMS_BASE & ITEMS_TL and then create my VO on the DB View OR
2. Create 2 EOs on ITEMS_BASE and ITEMS_TL and create my VO on these 2 EOs.
Please also explain reason behind selection of your choice.
regards -Anuj

Jdev ver : 11.1.1.4
Use Case:
I want to display a rule message in the language as per users local. Only rule name & rule description is a translatable column so i have kept it into separate table.
Table design:
Table name : RULE_B
Columns : PlantCd, ModuleCd, IsRuleApplicable, Value
Example data : 101, safety, Y, 5
Table name : RULE_T
Columns : PlantCd, ModuleCd, RuleName, RuleDesc, Lang
Example data : 101, safety, 'Minimum Observation required', 'Total number of observation required per site', 'EN'
101, safety, 'garbage input', 'garbage input', 'gr'
So i have 2 choices here. either I should create 2 EOs on RULE_B and RULE_T and make my VO on these 2 EOs Or
create an updatable DB View comprising RULE_B and RULE_T and create my VO on the DB View.

Using Personal Hotspot: Which of the 3 options is faster? WiFi, BT, USB?

It's somewhat slow on my mac, maybe I'm not using the best one: Wifi, Bluetooth or USB connection?

USB. As per the standard, up to 400MB/sec, which is the speed of the interface. Bluetooth is the slowest, Wi-Fi intermediate. Yeah, granted, this is way faster than what the carrier gives you, even with 4G/LTE, but at least the computer to phone interface isn't gonna be the bottleneck.
USB also offers the advantage that there is no interference and the phone battery does not go flat (provided the same on the computer doesn't either).

HT3669 I am looking for a Printer which has the "Booklet" option built in with drivers that work with os Mountain Lion 10.8.3

I need the booklet option on a printer (laser or inkjet) but am unable to find with a driver for my imac os10.8.3

So from your post I would assume that you have a file consisting of separate pages, such as a eight page Word document, and you want to be able to print this as a booklet. Do you want the booklet folded and saddle stitched as well?
I've seen this facitlity on copier-based office devices that have a mechanical saddle-finisher/booklet unit. But I have not seen a consumer product with the same.
If you are happy to fold the printed pages into a booklet, and you don't have more than four pages so stapling is not necessary, then there could be software available that will change the page order and print the individual pages in a 2-up mode in the correct order (ie pages 1 & 4 on the outside and pages 2 & 3 on the inside). A quick search found Create Booklet for Mac.
