These threads drive me crazy... :eek: the OP has not defined what state (or country) they are in and whether or not he or she is a MINOR under state law. So, much of the "they can / can't do this" is baseless...
Schools certainly appear to have the legal right to confiscate and temporarily hold items in most states as long as they have clear published rules regarding confiscation and established procedures for the care and return of pupils' property. In most locations schools do become legally responsible for the equipment in question while they are in custody of it, and are responsible for its safekeeping. Damage to confiscated equipment is usually covered under the schools insurance policy.
If the poster was aware of the school rules and is a legal adult then he or she has the right to withdraw themselves from the school if they don't feel that they can follow the rules.
If the poster is a minor, things become a lot more murky...
When in doubt, talk to your school administrator.. I am sure most of them are decently versed in case law regarding confiscation.

Exactly. Its called being a kid. Luckily, you'll age out of it. Until then, suck it up and get used to it.
Exactly, you're a child, a minor, a non-voter, you have no adult rights and the reason you're still at school is to learn...
If your IT admin who understand the network, administer the network and have to fix all the problems caused by students that don't know much at all, then they are well within their right (as adults, teachers, professionals) to do what they ned to to protect the investment in their infrastructure.
Consider it a learning experience, these people know more than you.
I'm sure if you ask nicely they'll give it back.
I wasn't attempting to connect to the network, no harm was being done

I wonder if an iTunes update could help things by:
a) Not backing up the location data
b) Clearing the cache when an iOS device is synced
This could be applied to all iOS devices, including the discontinued iPhone and iPhone 3G without them needing a software update.

Because I couldn't wait to get my hands on a Mac? :)
Sounds good enough to me :p As long as it does what you want it to do, I'm sure it'll be a great Mac.

i love my apple tv 2, i would be very interested to see apple's subscription service, if they kill netflix ability on the atv2 i'll be pissed. i don't like the idea of apple buying money on netflix because i want competition, and i'm sure apple wouldn't allow third party devices, ie-bluray players, game consoles, etc, to get in on the action. they don't allow itunes renting on third party devices now.

I tried it out at the store. There's like a .5 second delay in registering your movement. So it doesn't seem to work too great with twitch gaming as you have to anticipate your move too much.
The fitness one is pretty cool though since it doesn't really matter than much. Didn't get to try dancing, and didn't see anyone do that either since it appears everyone is too shy. But I imagine its similar to the fitness game in terms of operation.
The Playstation one is better for those twitch games imo.

+1 from me - for liquid metal!
i love that mock-up
ah well maybe 2011; with usb3 and an extra TB port!
OLED 3D touch screen would be nice too
Nice mockup but this wouldn't have a DVD drive or a backlit keyboard. Also, I do not like the color and the screen is glossy. Gawd!!! :)

oops - didn't know - you can download the iPhone/Touch app from the App Store - doesn't do head tracking if no front camera is available.
Pretty cool!
How do you find it on the App Store?

I thought you weren't doing bigadv right now;) I'll try it with 11 to see what happens.
i wasn't earlier, but when i finally starting getting things working like i wanted, i was able to start back up with bigadv units again. which is why my points are higher now. and i think i might have finally got one of my systems where i want (over 4 ghz). we'll see how long it lasts.
let us know have -smp 11 works

I'm not contending that the Macs increasing popularity is solely caused from a perceived "prestige" factor, but that is certainly helping matters. And a trip to your local snooty coffee shop is ground zero for the people who purchase products solely to be seen with them.
Like I said earlier, most of the people here are mac diehards - not fad followers. But I am saying that the majority of the boost Apple is experiencing IS from fad jumpers. Like it or not, it is what it is and it's exactly what Apple marketing wanted to happen.
I live in the SF and I know how you feel! I'll walk into starbucks on Union street (Lambos, benzs, bmws, range rovers, and the ast. Martins parked everywhere) and people are just constantly looking at my computer... I'm sorry that my fraternal twin is a mac and I'm really thankful that I would never put up with windows... ever! I'm not a converted I'm a converter... Mac Plus is my brother and my new macbook pro is my brother from another mother named intel :D . I like the looks of jealousy and I hope people do go out and buy a mac just because of that. I know jobs said the war between Microsoft was over in the '97 Macworld keynote but every die hard mac fan wants to rub bill gates in their own scat. We are better and we are more efficient! I will agree that it is a sad reason to be materialistic and purchase a mac just for stature but it's better them purchasing a mac than a dell :-D

I think the point today was made that Apple, Inc is not longer Apple Computer, Inc.
Announcing computer stuff along with the non-computer Apple TV and iPhone would have diluted that message. :confused:
If there's any company that knows how to keep in the media limelight, it's Apple. My guess is that they're going to let everyone speculate about the Apple TV and iPhone for a month or so and when the press dies down for them, then they'll have another press event for Tiger and iLife.
Besides, Vista's big consumer launch is at the end of January. What better time to steal the media limelight back than to announce software right after that?
How many "events" did Apple end up having last year? It was almost ridiculous! :)

For the iPod I can see this work. But for a laptop? The main advantage of this to an external solution is that they are probably a bit small and thus easier to carry around. But unless you have a very specific use for your laptop, you would always need to take the standard keyboard layout with you and always insert it when you are not running the one program you special keyboard module was designed for. So I guess for most people it is more convenient to have this module as an external solution which can be used in parallel to the normal keyboard.

wonder how this effects people(me) with a 4-5 week window that ordered last week ?
I really hope so. I'm on the same boat.

Now that Leopard is coming in October, I really think we won't have an "iLife '07", but maybe an iLife Leopard (as previously rumored). Why would they release something called iLife 07 at the beginning of Q4 2007?
That is assuming that "iLife 07" is going to be linked closely to Leopard's new core graphics engine, which I strongly believe it will be, especially with iPhoto slideshows, iMovie effects, as well as iWork.
Just my $0.02, but I don't think we'll see "iLife 07", maybe they are rebranding like the previous rumor...

That's good, seeing as how Netflix is completely unusable on Apple TV. I can't watch anything without it pausing to buffer constantly, and the problem seems pretty widespread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2616899). Works fine on my iPad from the same Internet connection, as well as from my TiVo. Netflix on Apple TV sucks.

This. I hate having to charge my phone after minimal usage every damn night.
Try turning off features you're not using. I'm unfortunately using an Android phone at the moment, but I was able to get battery life up to about a week by turning off GPS, WiFi, etc. It has been a while since I used an iPhone, but I imagine you might be able to do something similar.

My Xbox 360 still works great even though the new one has been announced and they are not making me buy it :)
Though someone who wants and HDMI 360 and a bigger hard drive has a version they can buy now. I don't see what's wrong with that. More options for the customer....people wanted it and Microsoft gave it to them. They could have done a few more things but overall it's an upgrade.
The biggest news to me is this:
"A standalone $179.99 HDD also ships April 29. This package includes one 120GB HDD, software, and a specialized cable to port data from a user's current hard drive to the new one."
I can upgrade my hard drive , TRANSFER MY CURRENT DATA FROM THE 20GB HARD DRIVE, and start downloading a lot more from the Marketplace. That's excellent!
I am with you. More options for the customer is always good.

It was good to meet you all. However brief. Sorry I had to run off to meet with my Sister and her bf (they wanted to leave :rolleyes: :( yeah). Thanks again to v (er, Ani) for showing me how to get there, I was kinda lost.
I'll be back tomorrow morning, wandering around on the floor, but I think we're leaving at around 3 something.
