Something sounds wrong there. I get 4 or 5 hours battery life on my DSi (bought earlier this year so it's not old), my 3DS gets 7 hours battery life on DS games.
Hm, we're getting around 11-12 hours on DS games - though we do play with the screen on the dimmest settings. Not sure what impact cranking the brightness up has? (Though if memory serves, it's always killed batteries) The 3DS was getting about 6, although we only flattened it twice before sending it back.
Looking up Wikipeda, these are the official stats:
3DS playing a DS game: 5-8 hours
DSi XL: 13-17 (4-5 max brightness)
DSi: 9-14 (3-4)
DS Lite: 15-19 (5-8)
DS: 6 - 10
So it's pretty clear that cranking up the brightness does massively reduce battery length, but the DSi is capable of far out-running the 3DS if you keep the brightness down.

Has anything happened for this yet?
After reading threads like this (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=163611), I think we should maybe start a guide about equivalent apps, Windows to Mac.
I don't know nearly enough about Wiki to start and don't have quite enough time to learn today. :o
Judging by your post count you have more than enough time on your hands... :D :p and besides it's not exactly rocket science.

Is there a benefit to having fonts activated and deactivated on the fly?
yeah, so you don't have to put the fonts you want to use in user/library/fonts by hand, like citizenzen and you recommended.
but i agree, what citizenzen added, that there's more important stuff to take care of than solely choosing the typeface. but for organisazion, overview and samples the fontexplorer comes in handy.
at least it does for my work.

I don't however believe I have broken the rules but if you feel otherwise I hope my apology puts a smile on your face and makes your day just that bit better! ;)
Duff-Man says....not to flog a somewhat dead horse,but you have indeed broken the rules - both the forums and Apple's.
Even *if* your friend paid for it, it's not his to give you to install and use without violating Apple's license agreement, and as for the forum rules, as quoted above it's *very* clear that you've asked for help with software you do not have license to use so yes, you've broken the rules.....oh yeah!

has your 7800GT got a dual slot cooler on it? the Quadro does (its the same cooler as the pc 7900GTX had) and also the same as the pc 7800GTX.. i think the 7800gt had that sheity single half lenth cooler on it. if thats the case, just grab a aftermarket cooler and be done with it.
seriously stay away from that 6600le its a piece of junk...
then again, if you dont play any games at all, nor use the gpu then sure i huess why not, go for the 6600...
cheers

You aren't going to find any Javascript to do that. You are going to need some coding on the server side. Somewhere you are going to need to run the SQL and pull the data from a database.
For example, I'm currently working on a project that has a Flex front end and uses Google App Engine on the back end. I have a servlet that can process images and serve them up. I am using Java on the App Engine side.
http://photography.jeffknox.com/photography/image?id=188005&s=300
The above image is pulled from the database, the watermark is added, the image is sized and sent to the browser. It isn't a trvial copy and past but you might want to start looking at whatever the back end server is running. Too many questions to provide a definitive answer.
(Note: The above image will eventually go away as the database is still in active development and this is a test image. Likewise the watermark is just a placeholder and will change.)

I think everyone is just gone WMP, and I at first thought it was maybe the price, but no a look at Apple's Quicktime Streaming Server site (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/products/qtss/), it says its free and open-sourced.
So I'm guessing its just web-masters not wanting their visters to have to go and download the quicktime plug-in just to use the service, it would just be easyer for the site to use WMP and be done w/ 95% the computer population.

So is everyone gonna have to change their checkout page from "buy this song" to "license this song"?
So it will be interesting if the licencing allows the user to hold the content without a licence (just as a car can be held without having a driving licence).
This means that content could be distributed legally without the need of distributors. Then only when you listen to it do you require a licence to listen to it.
No copyright theft, just unlicenced use. So will the record industry attempt to become the sole licence issuer - you can bet on it..
Although that does not prevent the licence from stating that you cannot copy it etc. So what's interesting is - who is going to read the billion different licences that will now bombard the user? This is a change without the rules inplace to protect the public. This has now made the purchasing of music online unfeasable for the public user and you will have to buy through a provider because of the legal minefield.
That is *if* you have agreed to the licence. Is there a law requiring you to have a licence to listen to music? Not that I'm aware of... it would then fall on the music owner to prove on each case that you're an unlicenced individual and that they have to then show how much they'd loose in revenue to the judge... so the value (cost per track) is really low although you may end up with the legal fees..
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks for your help.
If I can't get the upgrade I'm just going to buy an external HD and make it a network drive.That would work quite well. If you don't mind a non-portable drive (and it sounds like you don't), you'll get a lot more for your money (vs a portable drive).

You either loved or hated the puck. If it was clean, it felt great to use. I still have them and use one on the blueberry iMac I have in the garage. I personally liked it a lot. That said, I still use the original black Pro Mouse to this day with my main setup.

Is it impossible for someone to make a card that would replace the 'b' card in there currently with a 'g' card? Like is the connection to slow to make it worth doing? And what about combining that with a bluetooth connection too? I'd love to be able to put those in my laptop, and still have the pcmcia card slot still available for photo transfers.

I have five things that could derail Apple:
1) Meteorite strikes 1 Infinite Loop. Steve Jobs is great and all, but let's face it. He's no Apache Chief. The laws of probability say it's just a matter of time until a meteorite crashes into Apple's Cupertino campus. We'll just have to see what happens then.
2) Alien contact brings new technology. Aliens-- we know they're out there. It's only a matter of time before the Government agrees to public disclosure. When that happens the market will be flooded with technology so advanced that nobody will be caught dead using Apple products. Why have an iPhone when you can have a ;3ant409aus.
3) Rick Santelli inspires a whole new anti-Apple political party. They'll takeover congress and the White House and shut Apple down.
4) Data shortage. All those ones and zeros, they come from somewhere. China and Russia is currently buying up much of the worlds resources of the foundation of our digital empire. Soon we may have to switch to twos and threes, but they're more expensive. People won't be able to afford Apple's products anymore.
5) Pack of Tyrannosaurs attack. Yes Apple security is a well-oiled machine, but could they hold their own against a tyrannosaurus rex? I don't think so.
Hire me CNBC! I can write great articles.

So how did everybody make out yesterday?
Any tips on finding an iPad 2 in Ottawa at this point? Should I wait a while before even bothering to look for one in stores?
I managed to get a white 64 GB WiFi model at the Ottawa Apple store yesterday at around 0930, just after they opened. Only waited about 20 minutes and they seemed to have lots of stock.

Also, I highly recommend taking at least one backpack to put sunscreen, water and snacks in. Disney World does allow food to be taken in now so I also recommend taking lunch some days as eating there every day is expensive.
Have fun!
We have a back pack already set up for the trip, the more people post here the more I see P&S is the way to go. Now the question is, whether the TMz-5 is good or should I "upgrade" hmmm, decision, decisions.
