First, all the cloud computing companies promise to safeguard your data, so it's not like your codes are equally available to all, any more than they would be on any other networked system. Second, there is nothing about the ipad that would prevent you from connecting to a private system on your internal network that would then tell you how to execute your trades via a separate system.

Joss Whedon's Dollhouse
The last episode felt rushed, but otherwise, the show got REALLY interesting once they announced it was done.

Ok, so the way it seems to me, the ipad opens options. You can use it with your windows or linux box running vnc. You can use it with your mac server. You can use it with amazon's cloud, you can use it with google's cloud. You can use it with apple's cloud. You have the ability to pick where your data resides, and it doesn't have to be on the device you bring with you. It's not limiting, it's freeing. Using a computer that's somewhere else means you're not tied to a location. As to the OMG GOOGLE AND APPAL WANT MY BITS, honestly, I really don't get the objection. Instead of seeing ads about chevy malibus, I get ads for german sportswagons. Instead of getting ads about bose, I get ads about Audio Technica, etc. They don't want your specific data, individual data points are boring. Macro-data is what's interesting. The weather modelling systems don't report what the weather is like in sector (1112552124,126233623,774213266), they just use that as part of the model that says "It's gonna snow like a bitch in raleigh".

The way supercomputing works is you have a large remote system where the work is done, and a small client system where you manipulate the results. This is just taking that cocept home. The future isn't less powerful computers, it's easier access to more powerful computers. You pick your interface, with the features you find important.

It's what netbooks were intended to be. It's a toy for people who want a toy. It's a simple computer for people that want a simple computer. It's a very flexible, easy to program, light computer that can do almost anything, given a little creativity. It's just a new direction, not a rehashing of things that didn't work in the past.

Preamp with at least 1 balanced in, 1 balanced out, and one balanced loop/tape out?
A Beta 22 could be made that way...

Given the way the ipod works, it'd be fairly difficult to have it read music from removable cards.

Rofl When you joined, you received a private message that is pretty clear about how things work. You took that to heart, and did EVERYTHING you were told not to do, except sell shit. Spend time reading, and maybe one day you'll be given posting privs back.

You won't find things much better here, more than likely, but I suppose anything is possible. Be sure to read and comprehend your welcome pm.

Fucking moron with computer source question......
That's easy. You take the output, you take the input, and you compare them. If there are no differences, it's bit perfect.

I think the aspect ratio was a compromise to allow easy pixel doubling for ipod apps. I don't think it was the wrong call. The lack of multitasking I think is the big drawback, but I'm confident they'll fix that. I'd like to see java enabled, so that I can use my timesheet website for work, but I'm guessing either that will get corrected, or apple will convince everyone to switch to HTML5 for most situations. It does have me wanting to learn to program for it. I have a few ideas I'd love to implement.
