Wait, you can move illegal data using torrents? Who would have thunk!?!

Haven't used Torrents in years. Many years.

Its actually a 70s show.
Avon is really the star of the show. The show got WAY better when they dumped Gaan (the big giant guy) and picked up ORAC.

Of course Villa was essential in the show as well.

I have been trying to do this for a while. I have a ScanSnap S1500M and have been hosting all the PDFs on my Synology NAS. However, programs like iDocument don't support network drives and text searching PDFs. They rely on Spotlight's database, and spotlight doesn't work on a NAS (though it supposedly does work on a Apple Server).

I'd LOVE some sort of text searchable solution that is better. I do use iDocument, but that has a LOT of limitations, like it will not handle ePUBs. I'm hoping at some point Synology will create an App for it's line of units similar to something like Evernote. They already have two great Apps that allow you to stream Audio and Video from your Synology unit to an iOS or Android phone and computer. And they also have a Dropbox like App. The last piece they really need is some sort of document management thing that works with their stuff. That would be a perfect solution for someone who has a lot of documents or a small business which doesn't want to have it's data in the hands of Google or other companies.

Scott has been messing up. The interface designs are getting out of control on iOS and OS X, and hopefully Ive will fix that. Maps and Siri still don't work as advertised (though they are getting better all the time). I don't think Scott will be missed. It makes a LOT of sense to reorganize how they did, though Mansfeld though should have retired......

The other guy, good riddance. His managing of the Apple Stores is questionable to say the least.

True, but he has a huge track record of saying shit that is not nor will ever be true. I still don't know why he is the CEO...

Go back and look at Balmer's track record with his "statements". It's not really good at all.

Exactly. I don't see what the problem is. Where was the outrage when Apple dumped YouTube?

If anything, Google should be the one to blame. Why didn't it have an app ready to replace Maps like it did for YouTube?

Apple's Maps app will work for a lot of people right now, and it will get better. Most all the people I know who have upgraded to iOS 6 and/or have a new iPhone 5 don't care about it not being Google.

Honestly, Google Maps wasn't all that great. Sure, the current version of Apple Maps isn't quite as good, but it works just fine. Of course I live in the SF bay area so..

Submitted indeed is an idiot. They probably said the same thing when the original iPhone was knocked off the supported list for iOS 4. And then when the 3G was knocked off. And now the 3GS.

I owned an original iPhone, and didn't upgrade until the iPhone 4. I sold the old phone for $100. Apple moves forward. I got way more than enough use out of the phone, and it still was in amazing shape. Did it bother me that it couldn't run the new iOS? Sorta, but I understood it was 3 years old and the technology was moving ahead. The screen was way better than the original, and it had GPS, a better camera that could do video. All things that I happily upgraded to.

Now, the 5 is out. I still have my 4. It is in great shape. I probably will sell it for some money and get a 5. If I can get about $100 or more for it, I will happily do that.

It doesn't really matter that Apple chose to limit stuff to the newer products. It would sort of be like complaining about the latest game not working on your 5 year old PC setup that doesn't have the minimum system requirements to run.

Sorry, but I have no desire to have my personal information shared on FaceBook, nor do I care about the status updates of 'friends". I was on there, and deleted my account. I see no value in it. If people want to get ahold of me, they can text, email, IM me. If they want to know what I'm up to, they can ask or check out my website for info.

If that labels me as "suspicious" so be it. I have no desire to see Fuckerberg make money from his hodge-podge system.

I think they really missed a chance to turn Smallville TV show into a movie enterprise. They had most of the characters assembled, and could have done a proto justice league type movie.......

I'm not really expecting the Superman movie coming out to do anything. In fact, it could be a huge flop......and I don't see anyone doing a Justice League movie anytime soon either. You really need to do like what they did BEFORE the Avengers. You need to have a movie or two to give the origins of some of the main characters. So, say a superman movie......a flash movie......a green arrow movie.......

Or just spin off Smallville's version of them and put them on the big screen.....it's not like the cast of that show is really doing a lot right now.......

Well, there was a Wonder Woman TV show in the works, with a more "up to date" version of the character. They filmed the pilot, but no one picked it up.......so.....

Though of course you'd want a UPS on that......would it really matter? He's a lawyer. Law documents. I don't think they'd need a cache.

WTF......a Synology DS1512 will set you back about $1000 for 3 2TB drives. You also get Active Directory, VPN.

Way way cheaper. Or he could get a smaller Synology unit (like a 2 or 4 bay one) and save even more.

A huge old Windows 2003 machine is sucking power like a highly paid prostitute. And you aren't using exchange? Why did you even consider Windows 2003 when you could have built/bought a Linux/Unix based server for quite a bit less. I mean, the license per seat of a Windows server is probably upwards of $1K for about 10 people. Isn't it? I know Dell and others were selling non-Windows servers over 10 years ago.......

I'd wholeheartedly recommend getting a NAS. I have a Synology DS1512 that I got in April, upgrading from a ReadyNAS NV that I had for 5 years. Nothing against ReadyNAS/Netgear, that unit was robust and I never lost a single byte of data even though a few hard drives failed on it (gotta love RAID5). It is now serving as a backup device for my Synology unit.

Anyhow, the Synology unit is LIGHTYEARS ahead of the Netgear stuff in terms of software and hardware. They have a whole line of stuff from 2 disk units to like 16 disk units. All of them run the same software. They are easy to configure, and maintain. You can easily set it up to be able to share files over a VPN with it. Or your can log in via the web and get documents. Or have it stream music and videos over the internet for you. Macs, PCs, whatever can hook up to it. They even have iOS/Android apps to monitor or access files from it (like a streaming audio app, video app, etc).

The software and hardware is sound. I had a flakey DS1512 initially, buying it like the day after it was available. Some sort of ROM patch was needed. Synology was fairly good about providing me with a replacement (I did have to complain a lot to their support people). And the current 4.1 beta of their software is causing random crashes on my unit......but it is BETA after all. The release version is rock solid (DSM4). My DS1512 was running that since I got it and it never had any issues at all.

I'd say that hands down, when I was researching a replacement to my aged ReadyNAS NV, the Synology software and hardware was the winner. And it has proven so far to be true. And I still have two more drive bays to fill on it......;-)
