I'd take Tyra at 50 over the other one (Adriana?). :)

It is definitely advisable to wait at least 3 months after release. Canon has been foisting half-baked products on the market and letting the buyers do the beta testing for far too long now. :( I also advise you to buy more prime lenses and a larger bag. Canon's wide zooms are sub-par @21MP...

No shit. ;)

You could stop right there.

People vote for dead candidates, so nothing would surprise me.

Bah. I was not able to install the CS4 demo on a workstation PC. There was no explanatory message other than that there was an error. I was able to install it in a notebook, so the downloaded files are good. Is Adobe becoming as sloppy as MS? I really don't want to spend $500+ for an...

Doors?

I could not find anything either. Video interviews on the web. Bleck.

I removed one of the 320GB drives for use in the computer. At the time the OEM 320 GB drives were not available alone so I bought the Passport and removed the drive. (That was the older Passport before they split the line.) The other 4x250Gb and 2x320GB Passports are used normally.

PS CS4 cannot be installed on flash-based drives. WTF? http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop/systemreqs/

I have quite a few of the WD Passport drives and there are no problems. I even pulled one and used it in the laptop for several months. I've had more dead Hitachi and Seagate notebook drives. They're all cheap crap as far as I'm concerned.

That would be the WD5000BEVT 5400RPM.

http://www.storageforum.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7047 I received 4 Samsung drives in September. One of them defective. Besides that, they are not the fastest. I was planning to replace the 500GB drive in the notebook with a new 500GB drive and move the "old" 500GB Samsung drive in the...

Sorry, wrong forum. :oops:

There are now three 500GB drives out. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2000150380+1309740009&Configurator=&Subcategory=380 Should I upgrade from the Samsung (3 platters) to the WD (2 platters)? When will there be 500 GB 7200 RPM drives?

"small number" sounds like BS.

I don't work in a high security area. The data center and document control areas are off limits, but boring areas to be in anyway. Locking the computer in the heavy duty cabinet every night is enough for now.

Apparently I should wait on the 1.5TB Seagate drive. Is there simply a firmware issue or is it something more sinister?

So you ditched that expensive 3xRAID SSD setup already? How does the Intel SSD compare with one Velocirapor for heavy write and read activities like stitching?

Yes, and then you have to get a loaner from Security - what a PITA.

Who cares, it's just a car dealer.

My current PCIe graphics card will not run the 2536x1600 resolution. :( What can I order today from the NewEgg? I need one that is relatively low power/low fan noise and only takes up one slot (no huge fan). I will never need any 3D performance. The video card also needs to work right out of...

I had the direct link in there first, but reconsidered. Direct linking to an .exe is bad form on some forums.

:( You guys beat me to it. The first I learned of Crichton was seeing the Andromeda Strain. That was in the theatre, back in 1971. It was an excellent film for the time. (For the kids out there, Apollo 14 had returned from the moon as few weeks prior.) I started reading his novels a few...

Something that measures random writes. SSD read performance is usually not an issue.

Why, are you changing work schedules?

So you or dudering won't be making a 12TB RAID array from them? :)

What 1.5TB Western Digital drives? Are there any such drives besides the Seagate?

I have a bunch of hard drives and photo gear. Some call that junk. :)

Phillies win. :D :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin: :jumpin:

I resemble that remark. :D

So a digital TV can function as a computer monitor and produce good image quality?

On the road I prefer to stay a hotel with room service and order some simple food to scarf down while doing something else. I don't have the time or interest in driving around, finding a restaurant, ordering, waiting, etc. Hotel and restaurant options in the smaller towns can really suck. :(...

Wow, you people all have huge TV sets! I don't have anything over 27" in the house. I recall getting it sometime in the 90s, when there were still a few TV shows worth watching.

Who handles maintenance and repairs? What about insurance?

:mrgrn:

Are you a partner or executive with a contract for 5 years, or just an employee? I'm not so familiar with companies that provide custom furniture for junior employees unless there is a medical need. In my experience the people often quit or need to be fired after a few years and then someone...

Sure, whatever... What about crazed people jumping off the building to their demise? It could be an awful mess from that height, bouncing off the sides, etc.:(

Good for IR imagers I guess.

Why not use an SLR, for example borrow your 40D and an IS lens? Is this an illegal copyright infringement operation?

Does PS CS4 actually work with XP64 and support >2GB of RAM? Only XP32 is mentioned on the Adobe web site.

Have you had a colonotomy? The procedure is required after age 50. Having a camera system rammed up there sounds painful. :(

Milk deliveries were 3x a week back in the day. The 1/2 gallon bottles sure made a mess when they broke. :( "Ring up" means to make a telephone call. Perhaps the term is unfamiliar in your country. UPS just started that crap a few weeks ago AFAIK. Apparently the UPS robot assumes that...

No. This one is bothering me more than usual due to the circumstances. I don't want to think about him for a while.

Lately some stupid UPS robot rings up and wakes me in the morning every time a package will be delivered. :(

Why does it need to be in 32-bit mode again? Most printers are only good for 7 bits anyway.

PTGUI should be fine for that, though I've not tried 32-bit space. Output is usually done to .psb if files are large.

It has very poorly placed AF zones like the 5D, making it difficult or unsuitable for some action and has too many MP. I would have much preferred 16.7 MP with better mid- and high-ISO performance. Canon seems to be in reaction mode now and following the market.

I don't know. PTGUI is a fine tool for stitching. HDR usually degrades images quality much more than stitching, so perhaps the software does that part prior to the stitching. Perform a test of different software using a small data set before working on the large images.
