I think some people are missing the point of this new format.
It isn't intended to replace jpg. It's aimed at replacing camera RAW formats.
Currently each manufacturer has ther own raw format. That is how the image is stored straight off the sensor with minimal manipulation.
Adobe produce filters to allow photoshop to read these raw formats.
Now isn't it easier for Adobe to put out a standerd and get the camera manufacturers to use that rather than messing about with all these filters to do the same job?
It also means images stored in this format would hopefully have a longer shelf life. The last thing you want is your raw images to be unreadable by any software in a couple of years time :eek:

Out of interest, what does your software do? Is it the OS?
We can’t believe it, but this is for real. We are coding a BSD based operating system with an implementation of BASIC. We’ve got lots of great features planned, and they’re coming soon (or maybe not very soon, but sometime down the road). Before you know it, this screen of black and white will transform itself into the most advanced and elegant graphical user interface ever. Please come back and visit the site for links to downloads (when the time for that comes) and more great info!

ok, I really do hope Apple comes out with a new display on Oct 1. Especially something like a 19" widescreen. Do all of you think this is a real possibility?
If Apple does release new lcds, I'm gonna go run out and buy my first mac (a dual1ghz powermac and a nice widescreen 19") so I can finally have a stable environment to run emagic logic platinum 5. :p
Please Apple! Give us new screens and make me a "switcher!"

PS. If you could give me a brand new top of the line mac while your at it i wouldnt mind either.
Edit: There is no blasphemy intended here
it reminds me of that janis joplin song...imagine the music in the background ;)
when motorola was stuck at 500 mhz for 18 months, then i started becoming very vocal about dropping them on the high end stuff and going to ibm when there were rumors that they can make a faster chip
but motorola has climbed, though somewhat slowly, out of their pit, and are doing ok
sure, it may be many months ahead when the pcs hit 3.5 ghz+, but i think motorola will deliver a 2 ghz chip sometime next year
and really, after 2 ghz, does anyone think speed will be a top five factor in why one buys a machine?
when i was a computer salesman in 1999, speed and price were the top two issues...and while price will remain a top issue until all computers get really cheap, i think speed will diminish in its importance for the average consumer
many seem to like the dual 1.25 ghz machines and we know apple will speed bump their whole line of powermacs early next year, if not sooner
a lot of the complaints about apple's speed on their machines sound like a lot of benchmark stats reading and not real world usage
most of us do email, internet, word processing, spreadsheets, and light graphics most of the time in the majority of users in the field...of the many machines i sold, i did not come across one high end graphics user or audio professional who needed more than our store was able to provide them

Dont you think that chip would be a little to hot... :D . Well, I fully agree with OS X being the best. But the OS and the quality apps are all that is going for apple. Apple lacks speed, but I cant blame apple for that (stupid moto :rolleyes:), but I can blame them for not dumping moto a long time ago. If apple computer were just as fast as PCs there is no way I would think about getting near a 'peecee', but they arent as fast :(...

Ditto. When Microsoft first tried it with XP, it seemed like it was the answer to piracy...........
.........Until it was cracked months before XP was actually released
Umm the activation was never really cracked. It was corparte edition people started using that dont have activation so it was by passed. To crack (more so by pass) the activation on a non corparate copy you have to really know what you are doing and that is when you have a guild on how to do it. I think I read some where that MS is going to have activation in all of it edition for longhorn because Pirate is so rampaned. Plus Pirate copy dont get service packs an only crictical secuirty updates. All the updates to remove bugs and to make the OS better they are not going ot be allowed to get
Activiction is not going to stop the hard core pirates but it will slow down to stop all but the hard core and it makes it a lot more trouble to pirate software.
If thier was no activation pircity would increase. I find the people who complain about it the most are the one that pirate the software. Ones that pay for it just find it slightly inconvent but no really problem with it.
It is the piraters fault that we have it.

Yeah, but I didn't even really consider this a rumor. Apple has been pretty predictable using their rebate end dates as springboards for new products. And the odd configuration of its current display lineup needs help. Dropping the 15 and 22 and inserting a 19 just seems like a natural, and a fairly easy thing to do.
I know a while ago there was a poster from Europe who said that their rebates didn't end until Oct 31, so maybe a shake-up in the line will come then. But let's face it, it's necessary. The line is far too expensive for me to jump in, and it's not even top-of-the-line.
RogueLdr commented in another post that the ADC was what made the Apple displays so much more expensive. Is this that big of a deal? I mean less wires is nice, but does it enhance performance? Is it worth $500 and less viewing angle?
Looks like I'm still going to wait to update my system and my 22" Sony CRT, but with the new generation Gwhatevers rumored to come out next summer or fall, I'm going to need something to tide me over until then...

I got this wierd protein p1108_kiefhaber_. My ibook in my sig has been folding almost 48 hours and its 25% on automatic performance, is it normal? Btw what type of protien is it tinker, gromas etc cuz it isnt listed in the current projects page. My powermac is folding p1109_kiefhaber_ its at 17%.
Ive been folding mine for over a week and its a 65%. Just give it time, it should be worth alot of points. I don't know much about tinker and gromas, so maybe another folder can explain. But i do know that a Tinker takes quite a while to fold in a G5.

Has anyone checked out stock levels of exsisting models? ClubMac currently has around 120-667s and 425-800s (system only). Those numbers haven't changed much since Monday. I don't know if that's a lot or not. Could the "slim" number of 667s be an indication of EOLing that model?
Whaddya think?

The problem about Adium is if you re-arrange the friend or buddy group whatever you call it, it will somehow delete some of your contacts off the MSN server. So when you use your MSN messenger again, you may find out you have lost few of your friends. At least it happened to me.
