What application are you most looking forward to?

You cmaier, were one of those (surur and mikec too of course) that berated me for stating what everyone will now be seeing with the SDK.

And so you will also see that it does indeed have 1GB of RAM, but not for the virtual memory as you typically think of it, as you just stated. It is memory that actually lets the thing compile on the fly and store the stuff there.

But of course I'll never get an apology. I just get banned.

[cmaier]

You mis-remember, Archie. I stated all along that there was virtual memory, and I was opposed by Surur and others. I don't think I've ever agreed with Surur about much of anything.

There is no "compile on the fly." GCC 4 is used to compile on the desktop. Perhaps you are using "compile" in a less technical sense?

And you get banned not for your positions on things, but for making personal insults.

In response to me you had said:

And any on-chip memory would have to be cache (particularly since otherwise there is no point added the 128MB external memory).

Archie, as usual, makes no sense, but his pedantic tone is at least amusing.

Then on the next page of that thread I had said:

If I get banned for making insults, what happens to the people that made comments like these directed at me?



Amy Winehouse callled...she wants her crack pipe back.

You like to lie, as you are patholgoically incapabale of separating your incorrect interpretations from reality.

This all comes down to an inferioroty complex because you were a Mac user in a world of PCs. (How sad is that...)

Take the lips off the crack pipe...you obviously have not done even one bit of real research.

I guess you aren't just on crack, but meth and special-k too.

I was going to respond point by point, but it doens't matter. You just make up the fact to suit yourself (and if you even read, I gave you laptop prediction regardless of size.)

you have no fargin idea what you are talking about.

Archie is back and still spouting nonsense

You really, really should lay off the Kool Aid.

As long as you want to come to class, I will continue to school you accordingly.

I've been waiting for you to come back so I could laugh at you!

the best argument against crystal meth use that I've ever seen.

Archie, considering your problem, its not surprising that you managed to read only half of RIMM's press release.




It goes on and on and on.

I am an idiot and have no idea what I am talking about,
I have "Downs Syndrome",
I am "unable to function in real life",
I am "uninformed",
I am a "Liar",
I "Go off topic and don't admit that I lie",
I "double lie",
I "have problems beyond lying",
I "misrepresent the point",
I state nothing but "logical fallacies" (don't even know what that means)
I am "completely wrong in every statement" that I make,
I have no regard for the law and will be prosecuted,

That last one in particular makes me laugh.

i gotta agree with you...that last one is quite funny.

hope all is well with the bunch of you

ps: WHY CAN'T WE DELETE MORE THAN ONE MAIL MESSAGE AT A TIME though? how many updates have we seen and still nothing.....ugh!!!

You lost me. "Placing only the code necessary into memory" is called "demand paging." You say this is not paging? But that's exactly what it is. Unless you are talking about something else, again. (It's sure not "compiling," which is the translation of source code into machine code).

Deleting more than one at a time was actually announced in 2.0.

[MacUser]

To get back to the original topic....

I am shocked the MacWorld post missed a password storage app like SplashID that works on both Macs and PC's.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE....I've become addicted to it.

Love,
A MacUser with an iPhone

What about being able to attach multiple pictures in an email? If I took a couple pictures and want to email them to someone I have to send two or three emails :thumbsdn: that should be fixed along with deleting multiple emails.

YOU'D THINK IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED IN THE FIRST GO AROUND
