Thanks for the responses, last time I opened it up and blew the dust out was about a year ago, so it may be time to do it again. It's possible the fan's going bad also I guess. At idle it runs at about 1500 RPM and the CPU's at about 30-35 C. It's actually not unbearably loud compared to other computers in general, it's just that my sister's 2010 is nearly silent.

According to Michael Moore, in a recent interview with GritTV (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/03/02/moore_on_wealthy_peoples_money_thats_not_theirs_thats_a_national_resource_its_ours.html), any wealth a rich person has earned is not actually theirs, it's a national resource, it's mine, it's yours, it's our wealth. Based on recent conversations with several of you and many on the left calling for DRASTICALLY higher taxation rates on the wealthiest Americans, I find myself wondering how popular this idea really is. Certainly there is much precedent for this line of thought... Mao, Stalin, Marx, Che, etc. all would have agreed... but where do you sit? Do you make claim to the funds earned by a wealthy entrepreneur? Are these funds up for the taking by popular opinion and political recourse (if we convince enough congressmen, should it be ours for the taking)?
"They're sitting on the money, they're using it for their own -- they're putting it someplace else with no interest in helping you with your life, with that money. We've allowed them to take that. That's not theirs, that's a national resource, that's ours. We all have this -- we all benefit from this or we all suffer as a result of not having it," Michael Moore told Laura Flanders of GRITtv.
"I think we need to go back to taxing these people at the proper rates. They need to -- we need to see these jobs as something we some, that we collectively own as Americans and you can't just steal our jobs and take them someplace else," Moore concluded.

Hello Macrumors,
I want to get a Mac Mini, just to have a nice little desktop at home.
Im going to hook it up to dual monitors, (which i already have), and so i have a few questions.
1) do dual monitors use up more RAM? if so...
2) how much RAM is a safe amount (im buying aftermarket), if i want to run iTunes, Google Chrome, PS CS5, AI CS5, a lot of the time at the same time?
3) is the Core 2 Duo capable of that?! And if i got the 2.66 GHz over the 2.4, would i notice the difference.
4) Last but not least, if i want to use it mainly as a windows machine, and boot it from windows, how much should i keep for the mac partition.
i ask the -windows- question because i have a friend who adores the design of Macs, but simply cannot get used to Mac OSX (long time windows user), so he wants to put windows onto it. Whats the minimum amount of GB's he should keep on the Mac Partition?
Also, can you change how much each partition gets later on? if so, how?
thank you for reading,,

The type of sound files I'm trying to download are wavs. Or they play as Quick Time movies. They are basically sound bites from movies and TV shows. At work (system 9) we use these as substitute alert sounds and press them to sound instantly when they fit into the conversation (uh... yeah...I know).
I'm just trying to understand why I can't do the instant-click thing in OS X.

You can't be more wrong. Surely iTunes became the largest music store and mobile software because of bloat. Not.

Hi, yeah sorry!
Im using a holding page its here http://212.78.231.93/~adfybba/
I've only really started it so there are loads of other "wee" issues but the main one is the top and side bar navigation, its ie7.
Everything so far seems to be working in every other browser I have tested.
thanks

I haven't ventured into the HD world yet so I'm not up to speed on the screen res needed for HD. I do however seem to recall posts lamenting for higher res screens for HD playback. If that is the case, then resolution independence would be a must. Otherwise the UI would become so small it would become unusable. Am I way off base here?
For full HD playback you need at least 1080 pixels vertically and 1920 pixels horizontally. So the current res for most screens is 1920x1200.
Resolution Independence would allow for say, a MacBook, with a 1920x1200 13.3" screen to display the User Interface at the same size as it appears on today's 1280x800 screen but everything would be markedly clearer.
Also, it would allow for native HD video playback and show every pixel of a 2.3MP photo.
It's a Very Good Thing�

Touch sensitive bezel is good, but it lacks the novelty and simplicity of a click wheel which is one of the main reasons why iPod was such a hit!

Hi all,
Here's a little back story about my setup, you can probably skip if you don't want to read it:
-----
I recently bought my first macbook pro, 13" 2011 model. I'm a windows developer so I needed to run windows on it, so what I did was put an OCZ Vertex 2 SSD in the optibay and installed windows on it, and cloned my OSX from the 5400RPM drive that comes with the macbook onto a new 500gb 7200RPM drive. So I have two separate drives for the two separate operating systems.
I had all sorts of trouble setting this up, because the 2011 MBP's don't boot from USB, I had to take my SSD out of the optibay and replace the DVD Drive, put the SSD in the main bay, install windows then swap it back.
-----
It mostly worked though, I could swap between the OS's using bootcamp, or reefit - both worked. However last week all of a sudden I just couldn't boot into windows, I got a black screen with a blinking cursor. As this is my work PC, and my superdrive was at home, I couldn't boot from a windows disk to do a startup recovery. I wasted a day trying to workout how I could repair this from within OSX, mostly screwing around with vmware/parallels to try get it to run a repair from a windows disk to no avail. I went home, swapped the drives again, and ran the repair.
However now my boot camp won't work, I have to use reefit to open up windows when I want to boot. Occasionally it just won't boot from reefit at all either. I tried going into boot camp assistant but there is no way to repair the boot camp partition without wiping the drive, which is a pain.
On top of this, I've got a number of other problems:
- Windows on my SSD won't hibernate or sleep without crashing windows. Is this normal? is there a way to fix this?
- I now can't set it to boot into windows by default.
- On some networks (ie at uni) when I swap from mac to windows, it wont let me join the wifi network, I'm guessing this has to do with mac addresses and security? Has anyone else come across this issue?
- battery life is pretty average on both operating systems, more so on windows, is there any enhancements to windows other than what you would normally do on a laptop?
I really need to get a reliable system setup, I can't afford to go into work and have my laptop not boot into windows. Can anyone give me some advice? Should I try taking an image of windows and setting up the boot camp partitions again on the SSD? Or perhaps I need to just shell out for a 256gb SSD and put both windows and osx on that...

Screw Dvd Jon. He's a moron. iTunes is popular because it's a simplistic kick ass store. It's easy to use, and well organized. It has a great selection for a price cheaper than most CDs.
That is kind of a silly statement.
What DVD Jon has done is made it possible for OTHER companies to get in on the action and offer content for US, the users of the iPod. I commend him and more importantly I look for other content that is better than 128 kbps and doesn't cost 99 cents per song.

So am I wrong in thinking that resolution independence basically enables me to run the Finder at 1440x900 or whatever it is...Photoshop at 1680x1040 or whatever...and Safari at 1024x768?
No, that's not what it means. It means the UI is resolution independent of its display device, not that each application runs at a screen resolution different than others. This is designed so that screen resolution can increase without making the UI teeny tiny and unreadable.

Thanks. To clarify, I'm not running surround (5.1). I just listen to music on 2.1 speakers. So, my question is simply whether there's any sound card difference between the mini and the iMac.

I think at this point it would be a terrible move not to do some sort of redesign to the 4. It at bare minimum needs a bigger screen and I am sure it will already have more ram and the A5 if not dual A5's. So really, what's the point of releasing another iphone if all your gonna do is change the processor and ram? The phone is not sluggish or anything now so why even waste the time? I think it would be a bad move to not move up with the screen size, at least to 4 inches.
The question is how many people want to have a bigger phone? I don't know if it will be bigger or not but I don't think a bigger sized phone is a always a good idea. Not saying a small increase in screen size (not resolution) will not happen I just don't want my iPhone becoming an iPad mini!
FYI the A5 CPU is already dual core chip, so I think there is no way the iPhone 5 will be a dual A5 (making it a Quad core CPU) for a mobile phone. I don't think the vastly smaller battery in the phone compared to the iPad could handle it!
