What type of case is best for protecting against damage from dropping? Like what material or type.

Just wait until they add Thunderbolt to the design. I know more than one person who never even looked at the MBA for its lack of a high speed port.
Yeah, Thunderbolt and Sandy Bridge and I am in.

I was a junior in college. I woke up around 9:30, and when I went to my computer I had 2 IMs from friends. One said "Turn on the news" and the other said "Turn on your tv, big stuff happening." I turned it on in time to see footage of the towers getting hit, it just blew me the **** away. I was dating someone who worked for the Senate, and spent most of the day trying to get through to her, as well as my family in New Jersey to make sure everyone we knew were alright. I remember random things, like my friend Noah im'ing with friends in NYC and calling their parents since their phones were jammed....I can't believe it's been 4 years. It feels like it was both longer and shorter. It was burned into our national (and international) conciousness, but the time frame seems so small....

you connect ipad to your computer. then sign out of itunes, launch teamviewer app. then someone with version 1. connects. transfers the file to your computer then sign in with that info and sync it. the only thing u have to be careful is not to allow ipad to sync apps and stuff as it will overwrite what you have in there.

When I go to bed, I do a shut down.
While you may shut down whenever you like, it's not necessary. Using sleep mode is perfectly fine.
I have been advised that it is “better the computer” to go into Preferences>Energy Saver and set sleep to “never”, as battery conservation is not an issue
Also not necessary. You can set sleep preferences for when you walk away, and temporarily override them with Caffeine (http://lightheadsw.com/caffeine/).
(alway on A/C power).
It's not a good idea to always be on AC power. Your battery needs to be used/cycled to stay healthy. For details, see the AC POWER section of the following link.
Which is “better for the computer”–to put it to sleep after each use, or to leave it running all the time until bedtime shut down.
Either is fine.
This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions:

Can anyone recommend me a good digital video camera to use with iMovie? I'm a home user, but I'd like to get one that does Full HD if possible.
Recommendations as to whether to get one with a hard drive, SD slot or whatever would be nice too.
Sorry if this question has been asked before. If you can point me to such a thread and/or give me an updated answer that would be nice.

My modified original plan is for a Mac Pro:
1. 120 SSD for my boot drive, including OS and software: bay 1
2. 320 GB- 500 GB to backup the boot drive: bay 2.
3. 500 GB-750GB drive for photo storage and scratch disc: bay 3
4. the OEM 1 TB to backup the photo/scratch disc drive: bay 4.
...
Another question, SR20DETDOG stated I do not need a 7200 rpm drive for storage and that makes sense, but if I am using the drive as storage and scratch disc, then should I buy a 7200 rpm drive?

Apparently 4.3.1 is on the way for security reasons, which they're waiting for.
4.3 is not on the way. They speculated that because they thought 4.3 would be hacked at some conference but only 4.2.1 was so there is no need for a 4.3.1. They aren't waiting for anything. They are in the process and working out bugs. It is one thing to successfully JB, another to actually release it to the public problem free. When it is done it'll be released. Comex is working on it.

It would probably be hard to tell the difference because it's 320 kbps MP3. Having said that, most of my music library is still in lossless.

What if the patent diagrams are just cover for what this thing really is, which might-maybe-perhaps-could-be something entirely not-ipod. Maybe, the ipodish descriptions only are to throw us off and it is really a new mini-handheld computer, video player, wireless downloadable from itv-or-your-mac, remote, tv viewer. If apple were to be planning something like that, they would probably want to not let the patent reveal the product. just thinking....

iPod Mobile Phone � Even just a few days ago, I did not expect to see Apple announce a phone this week. But over the weekend I flip-flopped, and I now think it�s more likely than not. Not a VOIP phone that depends on Wi-Fi or anything like that, but an honest-to-god mobile phone. It seems like there has to be some sort of �Wow, I thought maybe Apple would announce a phone but I didn�t think they�d do it like this!� factor, but damned if anyone knows what it is. My wild unlikely-but-wouldn�t-it-be-cool-as-**** guess: that it�s not an iPod phone, but rather introduces a new mobile device OS
i have to agree that would be even cooler than a new phone; a new mobile platform entirely. unlikely, but cool.

are you sure the trailers aren't choppy because you're downloading them? Since all macs come with Imovie HD I'd assume they can handle it.

Thought it would be nice to mark the day with asking people to recall where they were at the time when they heard what was going on in New York and Washington... and to spare a minute to remember all those who were touched by these disasters
It was a hot sunny day in London, just after 2pm. I was off work and was at home having an afternoon nap but the radio was playing softly, tuned to a BBC news network. I woke up to hear the announcer saying something about a fire in the World Trade Center... turned on the television to see that the BBC had already gone to ABC's live feed. Sat and watched the next few hours with amazement and horror then had to go over to friend's house which I was house-sitting at the time to check up on things... I will never forget the expressions on the faces of those I saw walking in the streets of London that evening rush-hour.
