That's because touchscreen interfaces are still a new thing and it's going to take time and trial-and-error to figure out how to best use it for gaming. We're already seeing little moments of brilliance here and there. Have you tried Super MonkeyBall or Myst on iPad? They're right at home--better than in their original platforms.
But most game companies aren't looking at that yet. Right now, we're dealing with a lot of game companies wanting to impose virtual buttons or joysticks on the screen, which IMO, is a kludge. But then a game like Angry Birds comes along and it's a huge hit because they work with the hardware instead of trying to tie it down to the old way of doing things. Imagine playing Angry Birds on a console. What a painful experience that would be. And yet on a touchscreen, it's a pure joy.
Give it time. This touchscreen gaming thing has just started, and it will continue getting better as game companies figure out how to work with the hardware instead of fighting it.
Touchscreen has just started but it ultimately is flawed.
Tactile feedback is very important in real gaming*. There are options out there for tactile touchscreens but Apple appear to not want to implement them. As I said before too your fingers cover up the gameplay. The DS circumvents this by having replacement buttons and precision touchscreen control on the lower screen and the action remains on the top screen.
*And yes I do agree - something like Angry Birds does not work well on consoles. However Metal Gear Solid 4, Fallout 3, Team Fortress 2 etc... they also don't work on touchscreens. And if we had to pick one or the other - I'd have to side with those more full, complex games.
It's not as if every game and genre can be translated to touchscreens, and I imagine there are many more genres more suitable to physical controls than there are genres suitable to touch controls.
That's all really. iOS gaming is fun for queues and on the bus, but when it comes to sitting down at night with a good handheld game... out comes the PSP or DS (or GBA).

I'm trying to work this out from the Apple site but am banging my head against a brick wall.
My friend at work is wanting to buy a Mac and some other bits from Apple for his kids to use. One is at Junior School and one at Secondary School..... do they qualify for the Educational Discount??
Everything I see on the Apple website says "I'm over 18..."
Thanks,
Sreedy
If know one knows then I guess I'll ring them.
Online, I think you can only get into the edu part of the store from a verified education server/computer, i.e. one from a school.
Not sure about the process in store for kids.

Well there aren't really many other stores on the high street that have entire glass fronts. Most of them have roller shutters, at least where I am. Maybe that's something they might have to introduce. Bit ugly but will discourage robberies!

We use Glyph drives at the (university) recording studio where I work, and they've been fantastic. They're the hot-swappable models (these drives (http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GTKey500-8/)), but I've heard good things about all of their products. You'll find lots of specific models if you poke around Sweetwater's site.

I'll have to check my old Apple Catalogs.
I think it's their radio/cooler logo bag from the late 70's...
Anyone can buy them.

Yesterday I ordered my first MAC: MBP.
So im asking myself, if there will be maybe a "cheap" update solution to Leopard.
Some1?
Since Leopard won't be out until spring you will have to pay the full price. Apple is pretty stingy about giving discounts to their OS upgrades. If you had purchased you MBP a week before Leopards release you might have receive it for free.

The thing is, though, that all of this data is used by Final Cut.
I've known professional software to be very very picky about where files are located and relocating them can freak it the **** out.
Currently, I'm not using any RAID solution. So Final Cut recognizes that all these bajillion million files are spread across four drives.
How would I ensure that Final Cut doesn't spaz out and have an anxiety attack over "missing" files?

I went to the Apple Store today to get my iPhone 4 replaced due to a yellow screen issue. I showed it to a employee at the Genius Bar. I had a password set and forgot to unlock it for her. The lady didn't ask me for my password, she just simply typed in a 4 digit number. The number went "95??" I didn't see the last two digits. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Anyone want to try and figure out what the passcode is
I don't believe you. You'll have to present some actual evidence. It actually sounds like you're desparate for attention.
Good luck.

It works without the Internet. When connected to the non-Internet network, do you see the little WiFi bars in the status menu and/or does the iPod get a proper IP address?
Yes I get the quarter round radiating bars plus a tick to the left of the network name. It actually seems to be staying with it now and not wandering off as it sometimes does.
As for IP address I have gone for a static one same as I did for the router that works - chose a slightly different actual IP address on the same subnet. Everything else the same as for the other router - not that it should matter - gateway, DNS etc should be irrelevant.
And if I ping the subnet it does recognize and ping itself

Browsers are evil. More time can be spent "fixing" inconsistencies than actually designing the page. I normally use FireBug to step through page blocks and examine CSS. I've seen IE choke on something as simple as a missed semicolon.
A guess right off the top is that it might be something with the box model. IE tends to interpret things a little differently so check your margins and padding closely. If that fails you might want to start with a blank page and add in components until the page breaks.
By the way: It displays OK in IE8.
Thanks Laird Knox,
I've fixed the main navigation bar now and for the life of me I dont know how I did it. Think you were right about the box model.
I'll check out FireBug! Thanks again

hmm interesting. seems a bit funny how he speaks highly of Apple, compares both their visions, yet declines anything going on. Although, I guess its a way to win people over. Complement someone else in the hope they like you for it.
Or get the attention of one Mr. Steve Jobs and hope someone calls them and starts the relationship that T-Mobile seems to want.
Good for T-Mobile, that is a great idea on their part.
