My first computer stored data on audio cassette tape. Anyone know how much data that is?
In theory you could have had petabytes of data if your cassette tape was long enough! :) However, at the data rates used by early personal computers a 90-minute cassette tape might hold about 600K of data.
The real limit was the capacity of your computer to hold data read off the cassette tape. For example, the Sinclair ZX-81 had a minimum capacity of 1K and a maximum of 56K, so that's the most you could read off of a cassette tape and into memory.

It would be great if Final Cut Pro got updated. At the moment, Adobe Premiere Pro is quite a lot better and has a more modern interface, which is kind of strange, as FCP is the industry standard.
WRONG! FCP is definitely not the industry standard. It gained a lot of traction in market share from Avid but has since regressed its gains over the last several years.

Awesome sauce� bodacious curves� :D
My dad is into muscle cars and he offered to give me one of these when i was 15 and i said no. I wasnt into muscle cars at the time. It did need a lot of work. I would love to go back and accept that offer. It kills me inside to know i could have had that but let it slip away. He sold it a while back.

I thought I read somewhere on this forum, that these models can work just fine with only 1 processor installed....so this got me thinking -- if you only install 1 processor, then you could go with a generic LGA1366 i7 even though it only has a single QPI link. Is this right, or am I wrong?

My first mac had 1.2 GB Hard drive. The Power Mac 7500
That's a huge amount of storage. For my Mac Plus, I purchased a 20 MB SuperMac DataFrame external hard drive. Very cheap, too. It only cost me about $600.:rolleyes: It took almost a year to fill it with basically games, clip art and Illustrator files.

I like the idea about ePrint. May even go out and buy a compatible HP Printer. Can anyone tell me if using this service would cost me extra? I know that the printer would have its own email address, would that involve extra phone charges? Need information...thanks. :confused:

It looks like the field of potential "heirs" to Steve-O's throne is reduced. I will say the Steve Austin robot eye didnt win him any favors. Sad to see him go, bring on the next contestant

It's called "glossy blue by op." Have fun searching for it...that website really needs a search bar.
Damn website lol
I also liked your dock so I looked for it. For anyone else who wants it, it's the last one at page 10.

I have a FlipHD, and it automatically syncs all my movies into iphoto. Does iphoto compress or alter (loss of quality) these videos by merely syncing them?
Thanks!:D

Well finally we might actually see decent image editing on the iPad. I can't imagine this being anywhere as great as Photoshop on a real computer anytime soon, but the iPad should be able to run something like Photoshop 7 or CS without any problems thanks to the CPU power and RAM it has. If they just made it touch sensitive somehow, or added stylus or external tablet support somehow, that would be awesome.
I doubt there really is the need for a totally rewritten app here, as it will lack 99% of the good features in Photoshop (Liquify, robust Type tool, Curves, etc...).

They need to improve the worthless notification system in iOS more than the maps.
never been an issue for me. id rather have better maps stuff, since i use that near daily.
