Guess what... I already have to get my PB repaired. Yay ! :(
Basically I have an iffy keyboard... It sucks. The tab button is obnoxiously loud and my "I" fails to respond if pressed in the wrong angle and my right arrow is ever-so-slightly above the rest of the other keys. Also my PB fails to play audio from its speakers if headphones are inserted, then removed. I have to half-insert, and remove the headphones to get my audio back... Ugh...
I plan to go to the SF Apple store in person.
So the questions:
Will Apple repair it on the spot?
If they have to send it back, how long would that take? And would I have to pick it back up in person, or do I have to go there?
Is the faulty headphone port attatched to the logic board? If so, would this mean a that I'd need to get another one? I don't like the idea of getting a refurbished board... So I hope not.
Would these issues warrent an entire HD backup?
If so, my other computer is a PC, with 128GB free (It has 2 HDs, one is 80GB (50 GB free), and the other is 200GB, 128 free [Slave drive]). This means its formatted as NTFS... How would I go about backing up my entire Mac HD?
I can't believe I already have to go through this. I got my PB around the end of may...
Thanks
EDIT: I think I put this in the wrong place... Sorry mods, feel free to move it to its appropriate spot.

The Centris 660av was one of the shortest-lived Apple models, and I would guess it was one of the rarest. It was only in production for two months before it was replaced with the almost-identical Quadra 660av (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_Quadra_660AV). (The Centris name had been introduced as a "low end" Quadra with the Centris 610, but after the 660av came out, they merged the brands for simplification purposes.)
I have what is, last time I checked, a working Centris 660av. Well, the hard drive is gone, but it has an external SCSI drive that boots it. That drive could probably be put inside.
I am in the process of moving, and really need to down-size my stuff. The Centris has no use to me (it's 25 MHz... yes Mega), but I love the kitschiness of how rare it was.
I saw one go on eBay for $10. Hardly a fitting end for such a cool Mac (a pizza box, as these models were called). Can anyone help me find a better home for it?

So you cant really touch the front of this thing coz it will do something...... I cant really put it in my pocket, especially if the hold button isnt physical...
There could still be a physical hold button. The drawing only shows the front face, not the top or bottom. Obviously the headphone jack and dock port will be on the top or bottom. What's the point of a hold button if it isn't physical anyway??

Sorry to be so cruel on your first post.
Comic Sans?
IPod?
Yea. It was actually deliberate, even the 'IPod" - i wanted to toon it up a little but, give it a few extra tweaks, to keep it from being too close to the real thing, and just to add my own goofy touch.:)

I searched and didn't see any thread for Northridge yet. Is anyone planning to be there on launch day?
I'm thinking I'm going to go to either this one or sherman oaks, that is if they know they're going to have white iphones. Anyone have any experience lining up at this store?

Why pay $200 to some skecthy website, when you can go to Walmart and pay $200 for the Nokia E71 Straight Talk.
Why would I pay $200 for a phone that doesn't work?

At that level, I am not seeing the need for incentive, please explain why billionaires need incentive to work harder?
But they must be punished for their success, on the backs of the workers!!!! :rolleyes:

A great place for shows. I use it for guster.
Regarding FLAC, if all you want to do is add to iTunes, if you don't want to sync them with your iPod, then download a app called Fluke. It modifies something-or-other's libraries, but long story short is you can play FLAC in iTunes

I have the originals (got a bunch of them straight from Apple when they were new) and yes, the Ghandi one has the copywriter notice in the bottom right corner.
FWIW, from the tubes that I've opened so far, I know that the following do have the notice: Jim Henson & Kermit, Amelia Earhart, Desi and Lucy, Alfred Hitchcock, Picaso and
In fact, the only one I've found that doesn't is the Ansel Adams one.
My tubes of the series that include Feynman and Einstein are still sealed so I can't attest to those.

I downloaded the trial of appzapper thinking that I'd actually try to keep my new macbook pro clean and get rid of the "hidden" files associated with other applications.
AppZapper, AppCleaner, CleanApp, TrashMe, and similar apps do not do a thorough job of removing all files/folders related to deleted apps. I tested several of these, using Skype as the app to be removed. Of 17 items to be removed:
AppZapper missed 13 items
AppCleaner missed 11 items
AppDelete missed 8 items
Hazel missed 9 items
I also tested AppTrap, CleanMyMac and a few others, but don't recall how many items they missed. All left files/folders behind. In most cases, they remove .plist files and a few others, but leave behind much larger files and folders. (you will find a discussion of these tests in the thread linked below)
One app that I would not recommend, based on the number of complaints that have been posted in this forum and elsewhere, is CleanMyMac. As an example: CleanMyMac cleaned too much (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=709930)
The only effective method for complete app removal is manual deletion:

Now, when I try to open pdfs in Safari (to just view in the browser, and not download them), a dialog box opens asking me where adobe reader is because safari can't read the pdf. I can only download the pdf.

Who didn't see this coming? Microsoft is crashing...hard!!!
Continuing to make a product that isn't selling would be more likely to crash a company than to kill it off and move the service to products that are selling, no?
