Try to reinstall the bootcamp drivers again and see if that helps.

Well, I'm now running a 6040, so not exactly stellar points wise, but better than the 6701:
TPF: 15 min 43 s
PPD: 7445
This is really just an experiment for the mpb - Once I decide on which SSD to get it will become my main home machine.
What is slightly concerning is that the CPU is at 85 C, but the heatsink temperatures are at 45 and 46 C. That really does suggest that the thermal paste isn't doing it's job of letting the heat move to the heatsink.
I'm trying to resist the urge to redo it with some AS5 to see if I can drop the CPU temp, but for normal (non folding!) use I can't see it being a problem.
hmm. do we have any numbers for other machines folding the same units? i would like to see how it stacks up to an i7 920 at stock speeds.

You mean do I respond to overblown media hysteria and people who don't really understand how cell phones work? No, not really.
Sorry but the antennagate is very real.
I went to my local Apple store the other day, and picked up an iPhone 4 and bridged the gap with my left hand. The bars dropped from full to 1.
Now you might say, "who holds their iPhone like that?" well, sometimes i actually do, i hold my iPhone 3G like that sometimes.
I understand that a few phones do the same thing, if i hold my iPhone 3G is an awkward position i can get it to drop bars as well. But the iPhone 4's weak spot is a very common way of holding a phone, that's where they went wrong.
It's pretty clear the iPhone 4 didn't have the media attention, and i believe Apple is keeping the iPhone 5 in secrecy so that they come out with a bang.

I've created a page which includes the current world editable pages on the MacGuides wiki
http://guides.macrumors.com/Mac_Guides:WorldEdit
Only admins can change this page. And when u change it, the results are live. So you can add or remove world-editable pages to this list.
My eventual goal is to create a world-editable page of the week... which encourages user participation.

Daedalus256,
Any closer to a decision yet on parting out your machine ?
Just wondering, as it seems you have several interested potential buyers, like me :)

Didn't know you get credit in the Support Notes for reporting a bug :D time to start bug hunting...
It actually depends(largely on the group at Apple I think)
I reported a bug with an Apple product(Java), and while the engineer was quite responsive and eventually fixed the bug, I unfortunately didn't get a nod in the release notes.
It seems that most security bug finders get nods, probably as a way to encourage them to discretely report them to Apple instead of just announcing them to the world.

My situation: my boyfriend let me borrow his jailbroken iTouch, and knowing nothing about them, I updated the software and lost it all. So I have 4.2.1 software now, so I looked up the jailbreak for that. I used redsn0w and I thought it worked perfectly, but after I used the "Just boot tethered right now" option, the pineapple came up and all, but it's just...stuck. It keeps making the little slide-bar noise every 10 seconds and it looks like it's been loading for 10 minutes.
Also, I'm using an iPod touch 3g.
Help?

This was so much fun! Congrats to my fellow winners and all the participants for their outpouring of creativity!
Ah, that blue ribbon is handsome. I'm still a few posts short of 500, but now I can upload my avatar early! :D

thermal paste is only applied/re-applied when your logic board and/or heatsink is removed from the computer. This is the last thing that comes out of the macbook, and even then is incredibly hard to muck up. I think your problem lies elsewhere

I heard the Porche drives have terrible thermal dissipation. I'd go for the d2, if only for the rack-mounting possibilities.

a few things you can do other than getting a stabilizer or mount.
- use built in optical stabilizer (assuming one)
- practice "body as a tripod", keep camera close to body, turn body, not camera.
- use the grid display function (assuming one) as a static reference. it's easier to see shaky movement on a static line/grid vs. dynamic motion.
- adding any weight to the camera will help. This technically a stabilizer, but as an example you can add weight via the threaded 1/8" tripod mount, an 1/8" bolt and some washers.
- use a monopod. a lot of tripod functionality but you can run with it.

I did not know these existed, and actually do not think they are a bad idea if you are the type to take your gear outside in inclement weather.

In 4 years, I have read zero accounts of an actual bricking. I have however, read countless overly dramatic stories of botched jailbreaks requiring a simple restore. People over/mis use the word brick almost as much as "fail".
