Overall, even when using HTML 5 with H.264 Safari, and Chrome were both pulling roughly the same load as the Flash player when tested on the Macintosh…. So why bother, is effectively what the study is claiming. Use Flash, it’s fine, just let Flash access the GPU directly… Right…. Adobe has for years ignored the Macintosh, and put out sub-par versions of Flash, just significant enough to say that they support Flash on the Macintosh. Now Apple is suppose to expose the GPU directly to Adobe? Let Adobe do this right… Access the Graphics drivers like any other developer, and stop looking for a Magic bullet so that you can instantly leap across your lack of R&D. Yes, on Windows you were able to directly access the video hardware, that’s why windows can be so fragile. People accessing hardware and drivers that are either buggy, fragile, or ripe with bugs… On the Macintosh, the tools already exist to speed your software up. Yes, part of the problem is that your drawing inside another applications video space (eg the Web browser). But you have already worked with Apple to attempt to solve this problem, and you have partially. I examined your posting discussing the new webkit foundation, where you have significantly decreased the CPU load when parred with 10.1 Flash, and the latest web kit.

If you’re buying your first HDTV or an upgrade from a starter set, your new television may deliver a better picture than the one you’re used to. But picking the right HDTV can be confusing, especially when your favorite blue-shirted salesperson may be steering you in a certain direction in hopes of a bigger commission. Or maybe the rep is just misinformed. Whatever the reasons, the environment has encouraged a cavalcade of claims about HDTVs—some of which were true for first-generation sets but have little relevance to today’s buyers, some of remain valid, and some of which were never true. via Fact or fiction? 8 HDTV claims demystified | HDTV | Playlist – Page 1 | Macworld. Microsoft has released updates for Office 2004 and 2008, which include security fixes for “vulnerabilities that an attacker can use to overwrite the contents of your computer’s memory with malicious code.” The Microsoft Office 2004 11.5.8 update is a mere 9.7 MB, and the Microsoft Office 2008 12.2.4 update is 221.5 MB. If you use Office, it’s a good idea to keep up with these updates, as they not only provide security fixes, but also improve performance and stability. If you haven’t kept up with Office updates, you cannot, unfortunately, apply the latest update without applying previous updates. (Microsoft does not make any combo updates like Apple does.)

Okay, so that’s not the easiest way… Instead download Sebastian Morsch has written a script that quits Mail, runs the sqlite commands and then relaunches Mail at the end of the process. You can get the script from his web site. | ||
