Which one has least problems?

Looking at used g5's. Which has less problems: a dual core g5 or a dual processor G5? After reading the posts here, it seems the dual processors have more problems but would like to here it from experienced users. Upgrading from a g4 PB and will wait a bit before going intel. Kind of looking at a 2 ghz dual core. Not sure yet. Suggestions?

Well you don't want a dual 2.5-2.7, way too hot.
You do want a AGP video port because there is still the ATI 800xt for sale.
Not much in the way of PCI -X or Express options.
The Dual 1.8 and Dual 2's are a little old, being the first PowerMac G5's out, but at least with Dual Processors if one goes out you still have a machine that will work.
The Dual Cores have not as much bandwidth, sharing one Bus and a one memory controller, unlike Dual Processors which have one of each per processor. So in multi-tasking the Dual Processors should be a bit better, even though the Dual Cores will perform better on one task that utilizes both cores. Since not a whole lot of programs are multi-threaded yet the Dual Processors might be a better choice, depending if you multi-task or not.
The reason you see more Dual Processor problems is because there was huge demand for these machines when they first came out.
I would wait for the Dual Quad Intel Mac's and BlueRay DVD drives with DRM monitors and Lepoard to arrive before upgrading, as it will require a new investment in software/hardware upgrades.
I would get a Firmtek SATA PCI card and a Western Digital 150GB 10,000 RPM Raptor hooked to the SATA card for a boot/app/itunes/bare home drive and keep files on a file drive in new folders to keep up performance.
http://www.amug.org/amug-web/html/amug/reviews/articles/firmtek/1eve4/
Would get over 4 GB of RAM from Crucial as well as the X800xt video card from ATI while they are still selling it.
You'll have a decent sytem, it will perform well, 3D game all the latest games. Doom3, Quake 4, UT2004. Photoshop CS2 as well.
When the Intel stuff is ready then make the Dual Quad jump.
If you 3D game, let me know and I'll hook you up on how to add maps/updates to UT2004, lots of playing time killed in this game.
Plus I know some other great software you'll want perhaps.

Which one has less overhead Availability groups or Replication?

I am planning to implement FCI+AG for DR.
FCI at Primary data center, Standalone node at DR.(AG is perfect fit for this situation)
As per our business requirement we cannot use DR for reporting.
I need to add another SQL instance at Primary data center, Our Main database is highly transactional database.
Which one would be best solution for Reporting, Availability groups or Replication?
Which one has less over head on Production system AG or Replication in terms of (IO, Network, CPU consumption).

Yes, you can definitely use the secondary replica for reporting and that is what is the main selling point for AG.
I have used Transactional replication previously for reporting and it worked well in my environment. I havent really used AG for this purpose, so cant really compare .
Again it all depends on a lot of things.. Few points to consider for this decision
1) Subset of data can be used only for reporting reducing all required resources in case of TR. This is not possible with AG.
2) You can setup different security, different indexing methodologies etc in TR. This is not possible with AG.
3) You dont need Enterprise edition for reporting if using TR. AG needs enterprise
4) Primary keys, If not every table has primary keys then only AG . TR needs all tables to have primary keys
5) Everything happens automatically ie all database related objects are moved automatically in AG not in case of TR. So more maintenance overhead for TR.
6) You can have different subset of data in the reporting database in case of TR (which doesnt require to be replicated) . Cant do this in AG.
7) The reporting database is Writeable in TR. Not possible in AG.
8) You can decide the frequency of data replication in TR not really controllable in AG.
9) Less chances of issues like row missing , duplicate primary key errors, identity issues etc in AG. ALl possible in TR.
These are what comes to my mind rt now.

The net is that the initial support for Oracle VM Manager with Oracle VM Server for SPARC only supports NFS for repository (and virtual disks).

I accidentally made two accounts how do I switch which one has acces to my Facebook?

I made two accounts on accident a while back. I do not use the first one at all and entirely use my newly made premium account. The problem is my unused account has access to my Facebook and I would like to switch this access to my other account. Help please!

-JUST FOR MY KNOWLEDGE-
Is that not enough to connect facebook to the new account?
I mean, it may automaticlally replace the link with the old account.
Please just tell me if i'm wrong or right :)
Hey,
To be honest, I have absolutely no idea!
I just take the route that I believe minimises any risk of something blowing up server side, and whilst it may well automatically disconnect, it only takes a few seconds to disconnect before connecting to the new account, and just eliminates that risk of a load of errors popping up :P

My issue is not a particular add-on, but not been able to find out which one has the royan hourse in it, every morning it scans throuth all the site visited the day before and send the information somewhere!

I first started thinking my all Forum passwords was stolen because all the link as mark as read, so I change my passwords but the problem persisted, so I installed a packet sniffer to see is was a problem of my password been taken as I changed them.. but I could not see that.... BUT as I watch the packets I notice al the domain links of the sites I visited the day before (100's) passing through.., I try testing again but only appends one a day (the first time, maybe twice a day) I open Firefox (3.6 - 3.6.13), how can I pin point the bad add-on? I remove the one I thought were the bad ones (a have 40 or so installed) with no luck, I ran Firefox in save mode and the problem went away!!.. Please help.. One of the add-on from the Firefox Add-on site is snooping on you users..

Two thoughts:
(1)     It is possible that your Adobe software was the result of belonging to a now-discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program where for a certain annual membership fee, print service providers were provided with (a) both a Windows and Macintosh license to the Adobe print-oriented software products (such as InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat) and (b) special direct product support as well as the ability to put your name on Adobe's website as a member of this program. The program ended over a year ago if I remember correctly.
(2)     You may wish to contact Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support) and see if they can track down any and all licenses associated with your company. If you have the names of the former employees who worked with this software, it would be helpful. Likewise, if you were a member of the discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program, you may have some options for upgrading/updating the software you have.
Unfortunately, you cannot get any more definitive information about your situation on these forums.
Good luck.

Which one has better AF system Canon 550D or Canon 1D mark II N

Hi,
I curently using canon 550D for bird photography and often misses the moments due to low FPS on Canon 550D.
My friend suggested me to trade in Canon 550d for good Canon 1D mark II N which has good AF system and high FPS. Yes I may loose some pixels but is it really a worth to give a shot?
Please suggest me.
Thanks,
Mohan

Almost any newer camera than your T2i will do everything better including the 1D Mk IIn. I still use mine on very limited occasions. If you have EF-S lenses, none of them will work on a Mk IIn.
Bob from Boston, aka The Snowman, hits on an important point. The Mk IIn is dated and not likely going to be computer friendly for you. You will not be able to change any of the Personal Custom Settings for instance. It does not have lithium batteries either.
Have you considered the 1D Mk III ? A much better and way more advanced camera and computer friendly. If you are on the fence about a 1 series, the 1D Mk II (not the 'n' version) can be had in great shape for a couple hundred bucks. Not a lot of money to see if it is for you or not. That way you will know if a better and more expensive Mk III or even the fantastic Mk IV is in order.

Find a competent repair shop. You broke it.

Dynamic h:commandLinks : how do I know which one has been clicked?

Imagine I have something like:
<h:dataTable etc etc>
<h:column>
<h:outputText etc etc />
</h:column>
<h:column>
<h:commandLink action="#{BeanName.removeEntry}" />
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
<h:inputText etc etc><h:commandLink action="#{BeanName.addEntry}" />
so that when I add Entries, they get seen on the dataTable above..
THe addEntry code is easy to do, it's only a ArrayList.add() method call but what about the removeEntry? I don't know how to figure out which 'remove' commandLink was clicked.

If you have a datamodel in yo
ur datatable, then you can do something like this:
getModel().getRowData()
This returns the selected row.
From here it's with you.....

JRadioButtons - how do i know which one has been clicked?!

hey all,
im working on a simple gui to implement a ticket office system. im a bit of a newbie to using GUIs and im fed up of trawling through the api's in search of answers and im on the home run... so here's my q...
i have a gui class for doing a search for tickets. i have a controller in a seperate actionListener class for this gui. i have three radio buttons for searching for three different things and then there's a search jbutton to start the search.
how do i know what radio button the user has selected when they click search? i need to be able to know this from the controller, not in the gui itself.
thanks a mil!

Which operating system has the least problems for IPad

Which operating system has the least problems for IPad? I have 3.0 and probably should upgrade. Thanks

You're using an original iPad? Definitely upgrade to the newest version of iOS. Many apps will require iOS 5.1.1 and it will run fine on your iPad.

I just bought a new macair laptop and it doens't have idvd and I want to make a DVD slideshow with music. I have an external CD drive. Is there an applicaation that apple has to do this? IF I buy a used mac, which ones have idvd?

I have a new macair laptop and it does not have idvd. It has a flashdirve instead, so no internal CD drive though I bought an external one. I'm wanted to make a DVD slide show with music and I was told I can't do that in order to play it on a dvd player. Does Mac have an appication to buy that can do the same thing? I thought I saw one for $39.95 but not sure if it will do this. The apple store did not know for sure. Also, if I bought a used mac laptop, which ones will have the idvd installed on it?
Thanks,
Phyllis

It is now apparent that iWeb, and iDVD, will no longer be supported by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
Other users have complained to Apple via Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html and/or http://www.apple.com/contact/ and have received a boxed copy of iLIfe 11. Give it a try. In the meantime the following maybe of interest:
iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
All of these issues can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
Apple has announced that iLife is now an unsupported product and those iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the boxed iLife 11 at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought. Personally, if I already didn't have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

It appears Apple’s download servers are ‘overwhelmed’ today. I couldn’t download the newest iTunes update or IOS 7 and there are a lot of discussions today about not being able to download. One poster said they had chatted with App Store support who confirmed the problem.

Which one has least problems?
