Which Workshops would motivate you to attend a conference?

I'm posting this because I would like input on what kind of workshops would bring the most interest to the next Hyperion Conference. Please post your level of interest on a scale of 1 - 10 for each (i.e. A=8, B=4, C=8, D=5).
A) Installation workshop
B) Workshop on developing in VB/VBA
C) Workshop on Calc design and optimization
D) Collaboration Workshop (pairing issues with answers)
Keep in mind that workshops would be limited in terms of what can be covered in a given time.
I plan on sharing this with next years Kaleidoscope commitee to help increase the participation and maximize the value -- OUCH, that sounds like the kind of think you'd read in a Dilbert comic...
Thanks++

There are definite advantages of bringing a semi-technical group together for a couple items.
For instance, the VBA toolkit session would have been less stressful had the audience not been so far ranging in developer skills already... That was my mistake for not setting the expectations for it being an entry level presentation up front.
Anyway, I realize there are a lot more than the 4 options originally indicated and didn't intend to limit them outside of getting a feel for which ones would be best to "work up" as a suggestion.
I would like to go into more depth on a somewhat technical workshop based on creating a poor-man's failover for retrieves. Presenting a method for making 100% availability by transparently mapping the target database for the users -- both as a concept and a full implementation strategy.
I'd also like a second chance on the less technical presentation -- to do it right, lol.
However, I'm more interested in pushing the workshops into a full day track by themselves, where more than one hour would be presumed and the participants would need to come prepared.

I have some audio files on my previous phone which I would like to export to my new iPhone 5. I am told that you can only import files from iTunes. Is that true? If not, how do I import files from my phone - or my Macbook pro laptop-to my phone? Thanks!

iTunes will only import music from your phone that was purchased from the iTunes store. To transfer music from other sources you have to use 3rd party software, such as PhoneView.

Can I use ipad mini cellular abroad? If so which carrier would you recommend?

I want to buy Ipad mini cellular through the apple web store, but I can only buy locked with a carrier. Can I use it in other country? Which carrier would you recomend to use in China and Chile?

Virtual Box is safe and well developed, it offers similar or identical features to the paid competition, it may be a little less polished but that's all.
Download and try it out, nothing to lose (except time).

Which card would you sugg

As some one who has always used the sound supplied with my motherboard, I am now crossing the great divide and need help in choosing the correct card for me.
I have recently purchased a vinyl turntable and Magix Audio Cleaning Lab 2XXL software so that I can copy my old vinyl record collection to CD's.
The minimum requirements for the software is 6-Bit Full Duplex Sound Card ie a sound card which will record and play at the same time.
can any one suggest what card I should purchase and why and how do you rate the OEM version of the card.
I have a gigabyte GA-945P-S3 board with PCI slots available. and windows Vista Buisness
Any help you can give would be appreciated

hi, the card that i would tell you to get are ) look at the auzen x-fi prelude 7. which is a great sound card to have, it even out beat the x-fi extreme music card in different tests as for gaming this card even supports the eax 5.0 version and open al, it even works on windows vista with full support.........
2) also take a look at asus xonar d2x which is also a very good card too have also.. this card runs neck and neck with the prelude card listed above... however the only weakness to the zonar is the eax support which is only 2.0 how ever both cards are great it is a matter of personal perference on what card to get... if you are a gamer you would want the prelude because of the eax 5.0 support......hope this hel
ps.

And by the way, where can I get a 4+ meter microphone boom for a budget?

The more expensive one with rails. (the French ebay one) Your using it to make your camera look better for clients, right? Metal and rails look better than the cloth one.
I bet, though, if you want one for functionality (to hold square filters) the cloth one is better made from what it looks likes.

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.

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

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).

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

Hi, I planned to purchase a laptop for me to use for graphic design ..could let me know which laptop would be the best for me to use ? Thank you!

Hi, I planned to purchase a laptop for me to use for graphic design ..could let me know which laptop would be the best for me to use ? Thank you! Pro or Air

Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
Good luck,
Clinton

Is there a way you could get a adapter which would allow you to plug a usb into your ipod to give you more memory

i was just wondering is there a usb adapter for the ipod which lets you plug a usb into the ipod which would let you increase your memory and you could store movies etc. on for long journeys

The behavior you describe is possible through a few limited applications of which I won't even mention names here, but the "creep" would need access to the device in question for at least 15-20 minutes to load the application, and as well it would show under the Options > Advanced > Applicaitons.
On the same note, I don't like discussions of this nature on the forums because I have seen too many times where the questioner is actually the one trying to find ways to retrieve or "spy" on the other. I am not accusing the questioner in this thread--I am not. But I have seen it asked too many times and upon further questioning more information comes out.
There are VERY few 'spyware' type applications for the BlackBerry on the market, and most of them don't even work well. So beware, even if one is loaded, it cannot be totally hidden.

In which steps would you implement SCM APO?

A company want to use the APO applications DP, SNP, PP/DS and GATP in the future.
In which sequence would you implement these applications?
Thanks for feedback.

Hi,
There is no written down procedure for implementing any of the modules it depends on the business requirement
and the maturity levels of the Organization in handling SAP APO.
If organization is already on SAP ECC system the best thing to do is GO Live with all the models since then the
requirment gathering exercise and Blue Printing Exercise can be done in one shot and integration of each modules can be also done in one shot, this means that it reduces the efforts. However understanding of the APO system for the Business is a must
so that right fuctionalities can be selected in each modules to meet the business requirments.
Thanks,
Harsh
