I hope this doesn't come as a surprise, but CSI, Battlestar and many many other tv shows are also shot on 35mm and they have real cinematographers and DPs...
Slashdot Response: "Bah, I'm just going to steal music anyway! Total device lock-in, the iPod is monopolistic! $.99 is too much! Why not $.50, I would buy it then! iTMS just doesn't work for me as a concept. Apple is greedy."
Steve Jobs tells Record Labels he refuses to increase the price.
Slashdot Response: "iPod is fantastic. $.99 is the perfect price point, any more and I will steal. iTMS works great. Labels are greedy, apple gets such a small cut!"
But as someone who does Video and Graphics work for a living and as a hobby. I've got a 200Gb Project that I worked on last year spanning 2 drives and I have no feasible way of backing it up w/out dropping another grand and change for a tape backup and even then I doubt the reliability of tapes.
how do you back this stuff up. Perhaps I'm excited for a 500GB disk just so I can back up my current 360GB of material.. hmmm...
OS level dictionary is already in Mac OS X and has been since the first beta. Spell checking occurs in every app that has a Cocoa textfield. That includes Safari, iChat and even SimpleText.
First off, I believe that the only available compiler for iPod hardware is in a older, no longer sold or supported version of Codewarrior for windows from Metrowerks.
Second, the "reprogrammed" ipods were not actually reprogrammed - what I believe they were doing there was booting off of the ipod (yes, you can do that.. cool, eh?) by plugging it into the FW jack and having thier software installs run as startup apps...
was one I did a few years ago with an old B&W TV. Not sure how I pulled this off without sending a few thousand volts though me, but I did...
Disconnected the beam deflectors at the base of the CRT from the board. That results in putting one very hot little white dot in the middle of the screen. Then connect your amplified audio signal to the deflector coils. Put it up where every one can see it wiggle!
For more fun, choke the signal to the Horz. deflector for Bass only, then crank your mids and highs to the Vert. You may have to further amplify your mids and highs to have good deflection, but you get the idea...
Anyway, pretty cool mod to do with your old junk...
