    Revert OS X Lion settings to factory default

    I haven't found much... but it looks like there are a couple options. Most straightforward seems to be creating a new user account. The other involves deleting some .plist files. http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/18338/how-do-i-restore-the-default-settings-in-lion

    Revert OS X Lion settings to factory default

    Is there a way to revert settings in OS X Lion back to factory defaults? I'm specifically interested in the gestures on my MBP. I upgraded from Snow Leopard and had played around with different gesture settings... now I'd like to put them back to the way Apple intended. Is this possible?

    Lion release?

    Looks like there's an updated version of iTunes (10.4). Maybe that will help?

    Lion release?

    Don't forget to make a copy of the installer before you run the upgrade if you want to make a boot disk or simply don't want to download it again on other computers, etc.

    Lion release?

    This download is taking forever. Reminds me of downloading Xcode.

    Lion release?

    Ah, what the heck. I'll live on the edge. Downloading now too. :D

    Do I need a class 10 SD card?

    I know the higher class numbers mean faster reads and writes, but will I even notice the difference? I have a Sony NEX-5 and it came with an 8GB class 4 SD card. When shooting RAW + Jpeg the thing fills up fairly quickly. I've been shooting in RAW-only lately so that saves me some space, but...

    MBP - Resolution/Screen Options

    I have the 15" MBP hi res with anti-glare screen. I love it and wouldn't have purchased it if it only came with 1440 x 900. Do you have any Apple stores near you? They don't always have the anti-glare on display, but at least you could get a feel for the higher resolution. I don't find myself...

    anyone here use both a Mac and PC?

    +1. I have a PC desktop and MacBook Pro. This combo has worked out well for me.

    Anti-Glare 15" MacBook Pro In! Quick Impressions vs the Glossy.

    I'm a big fan of the anti-glare screen too. A lot of people will argue about which is "better," but it boils down to personal preference. I'll have to check out GraphicsCardStatus. Mine gets a little warm and I'm guessing the GPU is to blame. Sorry to hear about your stuck pixel!

    WWDC 2011

    Maybe it will scan the song and try to recognize it like Shazam or SoundHound...? I would think it would have to be fancier than a simple artist/title/album ID3 tag lookup.

    Arranging 441 Drops of Water In A Square

    No top-down view of the finished square? I wanted to see how precise it was. Oh well...

    Opinions on kindle?

    Congrats on your purchase. Take that Kindle outside on a sunny day and you'll be blown away by the e-ink screen. The battery life is great too. I haven't charged mine in over a month but I haven't been using it every day.

    Best consumer-level wireless router for large rambler?

    I would definitely recommend upgrading to N as well. You'll be pleased with the speed boost and increased range. I just replaced a WRT54GL (running Tomato) with a Netgear N750 (aka WNDR4000). File transfer speeds across the LAN are insane.
