The Monkey

My Dolphins D is being penalized for MOAR Dolphins special teams suck.

I think this one is going to be ok.

I need MOAR Miami defense.

12 Angry Men would improve with multiple explosions throughout.

I, too, am pleased with LT's resurgence.

Thanks, Jim. I didn't realize the APC could do that, but just checked and they do have management software for OSX. And I've also had good experiences with APC, so I'll look at those instead.

CyberPower appears to make models that connect to a Mac so that one can attempt an orderly shut down while on battery. That's something that I think would be useful as it is possible the Mac Mini would be left on unattended for a while.

Thanks, Dusty. I've heard good things about Brickwall, too.

Oooh! Good luck with that purchase. I hope you get it.

Thanks Dan. Any particular UPS? There are ones that you can check over the internet, right? That would be kind of cool.

Would that make it a rice paddie?

The setup is coming along nicely. Two more questions: 1) The power at my parents' house sucks. Lots of power failures and/or brownouts. So I'll need some form of surge protection, I suppose. Any suggestions? 2) I'll want to be able to support the Mac remotely--when I'm in NYC and they're in East Hampton. Can I do this via screen sharing or do I need something else?

Just got back from my son's "dance" class that my wife signed him up for. In every way a disaster. He was a nightmare. But the parents were far far worse. Yuppie parents FTMFL.

Ric put it nicely elsewhere in this thread. It basically looks like the images are painted directly on the glass.

It sure is. The more I use the iPhone 4, the more the retina display makes all other displays seem like pixelated messes.

I generally agree with Dan. fwiw, here's the link to the TV set speculation: Speculation That Apple's Rovi Deal Could Signal Shift Into Live TV and DVR - Mac Rumors Very speculative.

I think there was an analyst report that said one was in the works.

I want everything in my house to be made by Apple.

Thank you sir.

Just remembered that my CRT HDTV has one HDMI input, which is currently being used by the HD cable box/DVR. Am I going to need an HDMI splitter or some such thing? (And, yes, I am lobbying for a new TV.)

Modded k340 = good. Jim = wise.

Figured I'd start a thread devoted to the updated gizmo. Mine still has a shipping date of October 15. Anyone get theirs yet and any impressions thus far?

That just sucks. I'm sorry for your loss.

Just get an O2 and a KGSS and be done with it.
