I don't know how the Order Status page on Apple's site works in other countries, but in the US if the item ships separately, there's a separate tracking number with each item, otherwise it will say "preparing for shipping or "not yet shipped".
I would think calling Apple would probably provide more answers than calling the shipping company.

That blinking amber light (steady power light, yes?) means there is a cartridge error.
You said you replaced the ink cartridges, by that I guess you mean the ink tanks? Do you have a spare cartridge (tank holder and print head assembly) to test? I have the same problem with my 2500, and I have a vague idea that I once had two cartridges, but where the second one went is beyond me.
Yes. This is what I recall. The only other possibility is ink on the gold contacts on the side of the print head or the gold contacts they make contact with in the carriage holder.

I was thinking of selling my previous MacBook and purchasing an 11.6" MacBook Air because I loved the size and the form factor is so portable it would be great to carry around. However I remember my not so fond memories of the Lenovo ThinkPad X100e I owned back in November and quickly shot down that theory. The screen was just too small for me, which is why I returned that unit pretty quickly. If the 13" had been in my price range, I would have jumped on that instead. I ended up buying another MacBook which has been great, but the Air is an amazing product and when I decide to upgrade again I will be getting an Air.

Flash isn't exactly new technology as first NANDs were released back in 1987. However, NANDs have not offered much capacity before today. Back in the biggest NAND we had was 1GB. I think 2.5" SSDs can hold up to 16 NANDs so this would result in capacity of 16GB. The biggest HD in 2005 was 500GB, which had more than 30 times bigger capacity than the best SSD could have offered back then.
Right now, we have a lot bigger NANDs. The biggest ones used in SSDs are 32GB I think but Toshiba has already announced a 128GB NAND. I don't know when they are shipping them but 64GB should already be available. 16x128GB would give you 2TB! In the mean time, HDs have not developed that much. In 6 years, the HD capacity has only become 6 times greater (500GB -> 3TB). In that same time, NANDs have become 64 times bigger in capacity (1GB -> 64GB).
Okay, that is it for the history lesson and why we didn't have SSDs until now. The reason why I think SSDs are still so expensive is the huge demand for NANDs. SSDs use the same flash memory as lots of other products, i.e. NANDs. If you look at the industry now, a lot products are using NANDs. Phones, tablets, TVs, computers... Pretty much all electronics with some kind of an operating system. Smart phones have become very popular during the last few years. Tablets are still very new but they are also becoming popular.
When the demand is big, then the manufacturers can keep the prices up because people will buy it anyway. What would your iPhone be without a nice amount of storage? Or would you prefer a hard drive in it which would make it a lot bigger and heavier? Those devices simply cannot be what they are without NANDs. This means OEMs must buy NANDs, no matter what the price is.

I only have 229 posts... :(
Also I'm not exactly looking to sell... I just wanted to gauge what it could sell for... it's under consideration right now though amongst a few things I want to sell.
I wasn't intending on offering to sell it on Macrumors in any way though.
I can't even see the Marketplace forum... where the heck is it?

I store an archive of my RAW files as DMG images of my memory cards on a large 1TB drive.
I keep a subset of those (keepers) as my working images in my Aperture Library on my system drive.
For 2010...
My RAW file archives consumed about 300GB, which is shooting an average of 1000 pictures per month or so (25MB per RAW image).
My Aperture Library consumed 138GB, which as you can see, is a little less than half of the pictures I took.
If I was you, I would plan on using an External drive to archive your RAW images to, and selectively importing only the ones you feel are "keepers" into your desired photo management application on your system drive. Even if you import all the photos from a shoot to your management app on the system drive, you can later prune it down to keep the size of your working library reasonable.
Periodically, you can also archive your photo management library to an external drive and start a new one on your system drive when it starts to get full.
The bottom line is that with some proper image management, and a large external drive, you can essentially get by with nearly any size of drive on your laptop... it's size will merely dictate how often you need to archive things to your external, which of course, also depends on how much you shoot.

Magento is built for Ecommerce. It's bloated like OSC, but there is a big support structure, and it's more modular then OSC for your plugings and themes. We do everything in Magento and Magento Enterprise now.

Isn't that why the West manufactures in the 3rd world? If 'they' weren't being poisoned, the iPhone might cost twice as much. The price of doing business. And I'm sure some of our politicians feel workplace standards are one of those expensive government bureaucracies we can't afford. :p

Well, 4.3.1 is out.
Where's the iPad 2 jailbreak?
Well if one wishes to take a pessimistic view the iPhone 5 will also be out shortly perhaps they will also hold it for that? Or for 4.3.2? :(

So those of us that are still using 3gS's (that are on their last leg) should prolly go ahead and get a 4, and then wait for the 6...
Not so awesome news, I shoulda got a 4 a few months back then, oh well, maybe I'll wait to see what the white 4 looks like if its released on the 26th...
I am still using a 3g, how do you think people like me feel ??

I am looking for a KVM switch with a very specific set of features and haven't really been able to find one, but maybe you guys (or girls) will be able to help me out. I am looking for a 4 port switch with audio, mouse and keyboard (USB prefered, but could be P2/2 and I'll use an adapter), at least one USB port if it is PS/2, and of course video.
My main dillema is that I can't find something with both USB and audio. I have also scoped out ebay and found some cheap ones that do USB and other ones that can do audio. I could always just have two switches. Any advice against buying electronics on ebay? (I use ebay a good bit, but not for electronics).
Anyone have any suggestions. (oh my setup is that I have a mac, pc, and linux machines and only one set of peripherals and would like to easily swap between the three sharing all the same stuff).

Three years ago: iPhone revenue = 10 % of Apple's revenue
Two years ago: iPhone revenue = 26% of Apple's revenue
Now: iPhone revenue = half of Apple's revenue :eek:
Let's just hope they throw us a macbook every now and then. The didn't drop the word "Computer" in the Apple name for nuthin. :eek:

I also agree. Even the common non-tech person knows about this because it is talked about pretty much every day by every local news station.
