Hi. I need to know whether the RAM in my Lenovo Thinkstation S20 is the same as the one used in the new Mac Pro, as I plan to swap them if I need more RAM at some point.
It uses DDR3, 10600E (1333), ECC, Unbuffered DIMMS.
I would like to get your feedback about any of these machines if you have tested any of them by any chance. I myself enjoyed using the Vaio TT a lot and it felt very fast in doing everyday tasks. The screen is very crisp and it does not suffer any lines or light bleeding like the MBAs screen. In addition, the keyboard is dead silent compared to the Air's! Please keep your Vista sucks comments to yourself and try to judge these machines based on their performance, specs and looks and simply forget about the OS for now. I am kind of sick of waiting for a problem-free MBA screen so I might consider one of these machines (mainly the Vaio TT or Lenovo X200) to be my on the go machine since the OS isn't going to matter much on the go even though I would still prefer Mac OS any time.

The display looks terrible! All of the fonts appear to have a 'shadow' next to them - almost like an old analog VGA with 'interference'.Thinking it could be the cable, I went back to my old Mini's DVI->HDMI cable (and used the new Mini's HDMI->DVI adapter to connect to it). Same results.The Westinghouse monitor's native resolution is 1920x1200. The Mac says that it's configured for 1920x1200.

For 1399, you get HD, blu-ray, 1TB disk, TV tuner, remote. They claim to be thinner than the iMac. Anyone own one of these?
I've decided that the 13.3" unibody MacBook Pro would be the perfect laptop if only it had a higher-rez display, and I'm sick of waiting for Apple to offer it.
I use 1440x900 on my 15-inch MBP and while I've found that it's (barely) enough to work comfortably, I'm not really interested in the physical size or the obnoxiously-poor pixel density of this machine any longer.
Though it seems that nearly every laptop manufacturer has a raging hard-on for throwing low-dpi displays into 13-inch machines, Lenovo offers a laptop (ThinkPad X300/X301) with an LED-backlit 13.3-inch 1440x900 screen.
Inspired by a long, long read through the technical wizardry in the CCFL-based MacBook Pro WUXGA display transplant thread, I'm terrifically curious as to whether it would be possible to get an X300's or X301's display into a 13.3" MBP.
My new 27" i7 iMac will be delivered tomorrow! My workplace has me use a Lenovo 410 Thinkpad which has Displayport slot (Lenovo - Laptop computers - ThinkPad T Series - Technical Specifications). I am looking to use my iMac as a second display for the Leonovo 410 Thinkpad so when I work from home I can have an extended PC desktop etc. I am under the impression that the 27" iMac supports Displayport input from external Displayport devices so what cable or adapters do I need to pull this off?

View 24 Replies View RelatedI have an iPad 32GB WiFi and a MacBook Pro as well so I was trying very hard to justify myself in getting an 11" MBA but ending up talking myself out of it. The 13" MBP is perfect for my uses. It's already lightweight and portable as it is. After playing with the 11" in the Apple store, I was impressed on how light it was. This no doubt blows away any netbook or any notebook in it's weight class in terms of size and performance. However, the MBP's battery life, hard drive space, and processing power OUTWEIGHS the reasons of dumping my 13" MBP for the Air. Also, I have it hooked up to a 21.5 Inch HP monitor at home and it's good enough to use as a main computer at home, and light enough to take on the road.
If I needed to lookup something quickly in bed or around the house, that's where the iPad comes in. If I needed to send a quick e-mail, my HTC Evo is already great at doing that. If I didn't have a 13" MBP or even the iPad, I would have most likely went ahead and purchased the MBA. Just now at this point, spending another $1000+ or getting rid of my MBP doesn't make much sense... yet.
I've been lurking MacRumors ever since 'the wait for Arrandale' began and finally decided to sign up now so I could post this thread. I've been a Windows user for a long time now and I have a Win7 rig at home. However, I'll be going to uni later this year so I need a good portable notebook that's suitable for the common mailing 'n surfing, but also for doing some programming in Eclipse (Java) and PHP work etc. I still have my Win7 box at home for gaming and things that require larger screensize, but for the notebook... I feel really attracted to OSX with a MBP.
It will be my first Mac, but my desktop dualboots with OSX and I love it. So that's why I have decided that my school notebook will be a Mac. This is why I have been closely watching the rumors for the new MBPs and ofcourse I was pretty disappointed when I saw that the 13" model still had a C2D cpu... It's not that I need a beefed up CPU in my notebook (... I have a 3.6 GHz quad at home ), but it feels 'wrong' to buy a MBP 13": even the 2009 MacBook has a C2D, so what will the MB 2010 update bring? Is it really worth the extra money? Anyone with a similar situation?

But whenever I open Mail in 10.6.6 it say's it is not compatible with my operating system. I will most likely bump it back to 10.6.4 but I was wondering if their is any download from apple that could fix this. The app store is alright I can definitely live without it but no with out my Mail.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently got myself a 22" screen, and having used it for a while feel that it is of a good size to double as a casual TV, so I thought I would look into buying a TV tuner for my Mac. Doing a little research I find the following solutions which are marked as working with the Mac (supporting ATSC):
- EyeTV Hybrid ($149.95) [url=http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/hybrid09/product1.en.html[/url]
- VisionTek TV Wonder 650 Combo USB ($99.99) link
- Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950 link
- TubeStick ($99.95) link
I have also come across some receivers which are marked as supporting either only Windows, or Windows and Linux, at a lower price on eBay (see here, such as the
- AnyTV ($59.98) link
In this case I am curious whether anyone has found any software solutions on the Mac that allow these tuners to be used. If you have which "Windows only" tuners were you able to use and what software did you use?
