You can get a lower MHz iBook for hardly anything on eBay. A new iBook from the Educational Store runs $949.

It's a developer edition rather than a prototype. Not quite sure what that means in terms of tweaks or numbers produced.

Just out of curiosity, do you have a target price range? Brand new Radeon 9200s are about $130.
I recommend a Radedon 7000 or 9200 for their good performance. They're pretty cheap on the used market.

Pics would be great along with a typed description of it's appearance / functionality.

My impulse would be to simplify it, the little touches like the leaves and the mains plug, add to a sense of disorganisation. Personally, I'd start with a solid green and leave off the white swash at the bottom unless that's a critical part of the branding.
Prioritize the key words.
I'm going to confirm the same message.
I was particularly bothered by the bottom swoop. And since this has to do with e-waste, clean and technical is the way to go... no need for any leaves.
The main message is FREE E-Waste Recycling HERE... it's not an ad for a service, it's a signal to people that right HERE is where you drop e-waste off for FREE. So I'd definitely make those two aspects very clear. Arrows can help reinforce that, but it needs a little work.
The e-waste part is more difficult. What exactly is e-waste? Do batteries count? You can't explain all of that in a simple sign. So while I like the idea of adding a few icons to help illustrate what e-waste is, I think they could be much smaller.
Another thing that I'm missing here is availability. Can I just drive up and drop things off anytime I like? Are there specific hours or days this is open? If so, is that information clearly available elsewhere or does it need to be included?
They say a picture is worth a thousand words... but sometimes a word is worth a thousand pictures. Once you use the word "Recycling" you don't need to include the recycling symbol. You certainly don't need to give it such prominence.
I hope that helps some. Now that you've gone cross-eyed starring at this thing for so long, we just gave you number of reasons to stare at it a while longer. Sorry. Designers will do that to you. :o

I have to disagree i don't think its too invasive and works very well with the tone of the imagery.... i have seen reels with alot worse choices in music... my own is a prime example... :D
Also you can see that the reel has been cut using the track at certain parts... so changing it would require re-editing the whole sequence.
A reel should be recut once a month if you are doing a bunch of work. But, me being 32 I like it. I know from people I have worked with the DVD would have been taken out and dismissed 15 seconds in by some agency suits. Remember, a reel is to show your work... since this is a graphics reel it should be about the graphics and not so in your face with hip-hop.
If you could find a 'karaoke' version of the song with no lyrics it would help the cause. My $.02
PS.. your motion graphics are sick. Good work!

I should add that I used the install disks that came with the computer.
As someone else mentioned, try running Disk Utility Repair Disk off of your install disc (while booted off it). Or, just reformat (which will erase the contents). The correct format would be "Mac OS Extended". That should give you a clean slate, provided there are no hardware issues (with the drive, in particular). Memory problems would show with different symptoms.
If those are the original discs, it should work. Though, from what I can find on the earliest model (desk lamp style), the minimum it shipped with was 10.1.3. If it was any later model, it should have shipped with 10.2. Original discs should be grey.
10.4, Tiger, should work just fine on that model. I used to run it on a slower 667MHz PowerBook.

I was just giving you a hard time, it's the nature of my personality. ;)
Not a problem,
I have to say that my girls are SO excited to head to Disney world. They were 3 the last time we went and they had fun then. Now that they're 5 they are climbing the walls waiting to go. This vacation is for them pure and simple and I'll have so much fun watching them enjoy themselves.

Hi guys,
wondered if someone can help at all. Have searched the net quite extensively with this one - I'm now under the assumption the logic board will need replacing unless anyone can tell me otherwise?
I'll list as much info as I can if you need anything else let me know.
Got an iPhone 3g from a friend that only powers in DFU mode when connected to the mac/pc.
Blank screen permanently on.
All restores return error code 6.
2 different usb cables tried, tested on OSX 10.6.7, windows 7 + sp1 and xp sp3 (xp is virtual).
I do not know what version firmware was previously on it.
I have tried to restore official 2.0.1, 2.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3, 4.1, 4.2
I have tried custom firmware on 3.1.3, 2.1, 4.1
I have attempted jailbreak with redsn0w, pwnagetool, ziphone
redsn0w seems to work then instead of booting to springboard the iphone just reverts back into dfu.
I have checked the logs of these restores and noticed this:
Error setting variable - 'boot-args': (iokit/common) general error
error setting 'boot-args' to '': 1
to which a little googling led me to a possibility with logic board.
I have tried using iRecovery but to be honest unsure where to go with it i also tried TinyUmberella which attempted to fix recovery and the phone didnt reboot. just stayed in dfu.
Although this is in DFU i have kept making a point of making sure i manually place it into DFU when attempting restores just to make sure its not in recovery mode (though i doubt it ever has been as it has never shown the 'connect to itunes' message- just always a blank screen unless recovering.
Recovery for all firmware seems to get 99% of the way before showing error 6.
Does anyone know a way of fixing this issue or do I give up and sell for spares/repair?
Thanks

I opted to get the 4GB version, but waited until the refurb was available (they go quickly so check often and jump when it's in stock). I got it for $929 from apple. I would recommend a plastic case/sleeve/keyboard cover from ebay as they are less than $30 shipped and add very little as far as bulk/weight, but do a nice job of keeping the unit scratch-free and protected (not from drops, of course)
edit*
here's a list of the DVD drives I'd recommend. The top 2 are DVD ROM's and the second 2 are DVD burners. For the air I doubt you'd need a burner but for $10 more why not? The cables they come with have a mini USB (plugs into drive) and 2 standard USB cables, but you only need to connect one of them in order to use the drive (the one with 2 cables coming out of it, you'll understand once you look at it)

11 air
superdrive
vga and hdmi connectors
ordered a waterfield sleeve wwwsfbags.com for $25
carbon fiber top for $25 coming too
migrating presentations now....interesting it took 11 updates - almost an hour!

that's strange. I have a dual 1.8 G5 and that delivers about 200 points per day easy (both procs together), when it's folding 24/7. I have a 2.0 P4 at work and that's doing a bit less then 1 1.8 G5. So, with your setup:
dual 2.4 = 200 points
3.6 Xeon = 150 points.
But you probably don't have a dual script installed on the dual 2.4? And does these computers have hypertrading?? If so, then folding only uses 50% of your computing power.

Not sure about looking like an iPhone 4, but put an opaque case on and people won't know if it's a phone or iPod without looking at the screen status bar where it says "iPod *signal strength*" And you can change the name on the status bar too with jailbreaking. :D

1 to 1 is only offered at Apple stores or online. I've worked for Apple for years so I would know.
And yes, you can technically purchase it within 14 days, but when you go in the staff will do their best to get you to get it the same day.
-d
Oh I totally agree - the specialists will do anything to get you to buy 1to1 with the macs...helps with their metrics.
Here's an idea..go to the store and find a random customer buying a mac - give him/her 100$ to buy a 1to1 for you. Each customer can buy up to 5 1to1s, so you should be good.
Otherwise, make something up and I'm sure the manager will allow it because even standalone 1to1s help the store's overall metrics.

Did anyone install it already?
I've received it 2 days ago but still have the stealth guard on my iPt which is going to be replaced in a week, so I will put the bse on the replacement-device.
Are those bse for a dry installation? I've received them in an envelope without a solution, just like the stealth guards.
No, you're supposed to make your own solution. I think it was a cup of water, and a 1/4 teaspoon of dish soap. Then put it in a spray bottle. This is probably why it's so cheap. It should have instructions on making the solution.
