    Leopard Delayed Until October

    Who cares about the new features of Leopard, I wanna see the new hardware designs! I just bought a new 24", and I simply cannot wait until the new iMacs are out so I can scream "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" and sob for days. :D

    I couldn't wait! Refurb 24" bought today!

    I was wondering about this screen. I've noticed that if I have a pure white page spanning the entire screen real estate (say, a maximized safari window), I've notice that the right side seems cooler than the left. I don't think it's my eyes messing with my head, or from another light source...

    I couldn't wait! Refurb 24" bought today!

    The computer arrived at my office's warehouse today. I picked it up and now I'm running on this beautiful beast of a machine. Remember how I was asking about the free upgrades? The original 24" had the basic everything in it, but the unit I received has a 500GB HDD the upgraded 256MB...

    I couldn't wait! Refurb 24" bought today!

    I'm not presently enrolled, so I didn't get any educational discount on anything, even the APP. How often does Apple "mess up" and have freebie upgrades on refurbished stuff? I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl right now!

    I couldn't wait! Refurb 24" bought today!

    Like the title says, I just couldn't wait any longer until Leopard comes out and the hardware is updated. So today, when my loan got approved and the funds were transferred to my account, I splurged at the Apple Online Store. I purchased the following: Refurbished 24" iMac 2.16 Ghz, 1GB RAM...

    Airport Extreme 802.11n Slowdown w/Airport Express?

    My question is essentially the title: will the new AEBS experience slowdown/latency/speed degredation if I'm streaming sound to my speakers through the AE? I don't know how good the sound is out of the 24" iMac, but if it's not up to par, I'd like to get/supplement it with external speakers...

    Buying a new Mac; should I get a separate display?

    You gurus are much smarter than I am at the latest and greatest displays, so I beg of you all to throw me a bone here. I'm set on purchasing a new mac, and was eying the 24" iMac. It's big, but not too big, the finish on the screen is nice (I hate shiney screens), and it's all self-contained...

    Dr. Vijay Pande Video w/great info About F@H

    Here's a link to Dr. Vijay Pande's lecture at Xerox PARC about folding. He mentions F@H on GPUs around 35:00 into it, and says later on that they have it working, but are dead even with CPUs. Great update on the future of F@H and distributed computing in general. Also of GREAT note is...

    First Baby Picture

    I was kicked out of the student computing site on campus because I fell out of my chair laughing and knocked down some poor girl. Thank you so very much. :p :D :D

    Video card folding

    Hmm, it appears that the Pande Group is already working on a port. Vijay says it here around the middle. I guess I don't have to write anything now :D

    FS/FT: Modded XBOX (Storebought)

    I bought a "Platinum" XBOX from modchipstore.com and despite a Platinum picture and other misleading words, the "Platinum" is just a moniker for modded. It is a standard black XBOX with an 120gb HDD, and I believe a Xenium ICE modchip, and Evolution-X installed (and their horribly crappy "custom...
