Chalkperson commented on You Like Your Leopard?, at 1:32 PM on Oct 29, 2007 I am having problems using an external DVD burner on an i-Mac 24...this puts me off upgrading my G5 as i'm a photographer and I burn 10-20 dvd's a day...for once i'm going to wait before upgrading the studio G5's, we have twelve of them and I don't want any hassle, Apple wil give an upgrade in the next 2-3 weeks I suspect, oh and running Time Machine when burning caused big problems, I had to bring my 2 Terrabyte drive to the studio in order to get rid of the backup, I think the backup drive has to be seperate from the Music drive...I dont like the baby blue menu bar at the top, anybody know how to change that...but a couple of the screensavers are cool... more » [gizmodo]

Chalkperson commented on Another iPod Bug: Nike+ Doesn't Work Well with Nanos, at 12:55 PM on Oct 14, 2007 I guess nobody wants to see this from apple's point of view, not that it excuses them in the least..they brought too many new products too quickly and it is working on yet another one, Leopard...all these complaints can be fixed in software updates, but they have so many things to fix I guess they don't know where to start...all will be well in the end, it's just a case of how long it takes them to get there... maybe we will even get cut and paste on the i-Phone...by the end of 2008 more » [gizmodo]

Chalkperson commented on $7,250 Speaker Cables Turn You Into a Dancin' Fool, at 8:46 PM on Sep 21, 2007 Anyone who buys a brand called Pear is nuts, I said that Cables of this Price were made of silver and lower priced were copper...these cables are copper and do not offer good value for money, I said that cables were usually an inch thick for this price, these are not...I would lump these in with some Kimber Cables...worth maybe $2,500 tops...of course i'm being sarcastic...these are a rip off...you can buy Monster's Best High End Cables for $500, less than one tenth the price of these and you will like them just fine...even with $5,000 speakers...but not $15,000 ones@rlreif: more » [gizmodo]
