I'd almost agree with you on this, but plastic MacBooks are incredibly flimsy machines.
My first apple laptop was a first gen macbook (plastic). It was pretty sturdy I thought. It scratched easily, but that's it. It survived a fair share of bumps and lumps. I got rid of it because I needed more screen...

The 2011 runs hotter than the 2010. It has a faster CPU and a GPU on the same core while the cooling and enclosure design hasn't changed. For gaming the 2010 and 2011 are almost the same (the 2010 coming on top in most cases).
The fan noise is a given when your running under heavy load. You can get slightly better results if you reapply thermal paste like I did, but at best your fans will run around 5500 rpm under load.
There currently is no solution to lower the cpu performance for reduced heat by undervolting like coolbook used to do.
I can only suggest getting earphones or cranking up the volume or simply exchanging for another mac (some are cooler than others).
BTW I do not get loud fan noise watching flash (even in hd), just games, and recording from the facetime camera in quicktime or imovie. Running facetime under normal conditions does not make my fans noisy.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking for. I'm assuming that you have your own webhosting, your own domain, etc. and you want blogger to ftp out an index.html file?
If so, you just set up your blog with the option to "host on your own server." Then, after it's created, you hit it "Settings" tab in your blog panel. And then in that, you hit that "Publishing" tab. Put in your ftp server, path, and the filename you want it to publish to. Then, if you'd like for it to ftp each post without prompting you for your username and password each time, you can enter your ftp username and password under the query for blog filename and such.

Since the 11" and 13" are almost identical, I suppose that the technician guide mentioned here applies to both.
There is a specific service manual for each Mac, including the 11-inch Air.
I've uploaded it to Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?745cwqotg5zjiq5 (mba_11_late2010.pdf)
Hopefully this helps someone.
Cheers

Hi folks,
Longtime reader, first time posting anything.
Can anyone offer a critique of this?
It's going to be printed on a 4'x8' vinyl banner to be displayed outdoors. I'm not a designer and I've looked at this thing for so long that I can't even tell what works and what doesn't. It'd be nice to get a fresh pair of eyes on it.
I'm sending this to the print shop to silkscreen several hundred of these, so any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all.

The iMac is a better buy if you are intending to replace your keyboard and considering upgrading your monitor. The mini is good if you are happy with your current peripherals and don't need a lot of power.
I'd expect the mini to move towards the i5 and i7 processors in the next month or two. It would be best to wait until this Summer for the next OS upgrade to come out (10.7 aka Lion) otherwise you'll be looking at an OS upgrade cost to you in the future.

What improvements do you think it needs? Better zoom/flash? I guess it is a phone first and a camera second so it will never really be able to out-do a standard digital camera

there is a place here in Portland called Everyday Music, and I have found some amazing deals for like $1. I picked up U2s' Joshua Tree for $2 and "The Sundays - Blind" for $1!! Now I am just looking for Trembling Blue Stars for a smokin deal!

The best part about this thread is the title: I read it as "China Unicorn finalizing deal for iPhone 4..."
Thats what i thought.... And then i saw Unicom and thought this was about them making a generic copy of the iPhone 4. :o

LCDs looks horrible when not ran at their native resolution. You will definitely want to run it at 2560x1600. If the text is too small, sit closer or make the fonts bigger.

did u make any "add-ons" i.e OpenSSh, SBSettings ?
Nope.
For some reason, I always get error 3601 whenever I try to restore on iTunes. I can't get it to work!
Looks like a firewall issues, I'd turn off any firewalls you have.
after hours of frustration, i finally got it to restore with a custom .ispw. Noe im trying to figure out the tetheredboot part. Firstly, i don't seem to find the files located in the /dfu...at least not the ones i need, i've got 48 instead of 90. When i turn the ipad on i see cydia, but it crashes upon opening, this is a result of still being not tethered, right? Basically what i'm asking i guess is for some help with the last part of this process.
sn0wbreeze does this for you.. it loads a folder "iBooty" onto your desktop with the tetheredboot app and the necessary files, so all you have to do is open it up and run/follow directions. If cydia doesnt open then that means that the jb isnt active via the tether.

well many people thought that the first bridge was for iphone +SDK and the second bridge for mac hardware updates.

I would kinda like to find a website where flame wars were cherished, trolls were honored, and bitter insults were extolled.
Of course, I appreciate and enjoy the close community that has formed here too much to want MacRumors to be that site, but I would like my occassional craving for flaming to be satisfied somewhere.
http://www.adequacy.org/ !
And, as much as I hate to say it, http://www.kuro5hin.org/ is full of jerkish trolls. *sigh*
PS: What do you have against Best Buy?

I have an old LC 575 that I'm using for mostly playing games and some word processing, no internet, though. I'm wondering if I should upgrade from 7.5.5 to 7.6 or from 7.5.5 to 8.0. I'm probably going to pick up 32mb of RAM soon, so I'm ready for any OS to be on it.
Any thoughts?
You'll probably get different answers but my opinion would be that unless the game requires it, don't upgrade to a later system.

Not to mention resale value should be higher with lion preinstalled.
Why would that be the case? If you want to sell your computer and you installed lion yourself, why would a computer with lion installed by Apple be worth any more assuming both systems have the same hardware?

A CDN isn't a web host or a cloud provider. It's a distributed network of computers that push-out content to the "edges" of the Internet, closer to users. It's appropriate for large web sites with large geographic appeal which also have a need for low-latency deliver of content to users.
Amazon does have a CDN product, but it's not included in the base S3 offering. S3 offers storage services in ONE of Amazon's data centers, but doesn't push-out content across their world-wide network.
To my knowledge, the other solutions offered aren't CDNs and don't offer a CDN product.

I am definatly going so if anyone wants to meet up, I think there is a cafe (of sorts downstairs from the Apple Store with seating just outside it. We could all meet up there if anyone wants to. The seating is right in front of the photo place.
