David: Hello
Raef: Hi David . Thank you for choosing Gateway.com. My name is Raef, and I will be your eSales Rep.
David: I would like to find out how much better the Profile 4 is than the New iMac from apple
Raef:
http://www.etestinglabs.com/ma...teway.pdf
Raef: Here is a report done by testing labs.
David: seen it
Raef: great!
Raef: Where did you want to have your new Profile shipped to?
David: Why what Mac OS 10.1.5 used when 10.2 was out
David: I'm not ready for that yet
Raef: Not ready for 10.2?
David: for a Profile 4
David: i'm not ready to order yet
David: I have a bunch of questions
David: I probably will get one
David: I would like to burn DVD's
David: can I do that on a Profile 4
David: You there?
Raef: Not yet... If you get a external DVD burner you can do that.
David: I want internal
David: that doesn't matter to much
David: can I edit video on the profile 4
Raef: Yes, there is Firwire to connect your camcorder
David: what editting program can I use
Raef: Which ever you prefer... we do not limit you
David: I like the features I've seen on FCP
David: (Final Cut Pro)
David: can I use that
Raef: Is it Windows based?
David: no, its the industrial standerd for video editting
Raef: Oh...
David: its made by apple
Raef: What is it that you like about that one, that one other Windows based program will give you?
David: I also would still like to know why the heck 10.1.5 was used rather than 10.2
Raef: I think 10.2 just came out, right?
David: It has realtime editting
David: and has won an emmy
Raef: We went to Apple and ask them for a copy however they said no
Raef: I guess they do not want to put it to the test
David: o
Raef: We have new testing coming out though, just to show everyone.
David: good
David: and why dont you test mp3 encoding
Raef: Because Intel has already said the P4 performs better
Raef: I guess they do not feel a need to test it again
David: I'm sorry to say most people I know dont care about Acrobat Scroll speeds
David: I want proof
Raef: Did you check out Intel's website?
Raef: Just go to the P4 section
David: also, the frames per second are way out of proportion
Raef: Sounds like this will not meet your standard David
David: I know for a fact that embeded video cards can't provide FCPs like that unless the monitor is on superlow resolution
Raef: ok
David: so it was on superlow resolution?!?
David: wow
Raef: Was it?
David: does the screen move around
Raef: yes
David: you should know the resolution. you work there
David: I heard it doesn't
David: Can I make it go up and down like on the iMac?
Raef: You are a Mac fan aren't you?
Raef: and yes, it does
David: why do you say that
Raef: The REPORT says they testing was at 1024 x768
Raef: Maximum resolution 1280x1024
David: on the 17 inch model right
Raef: Correct...
David: why do you say I am a mac fan
Raef: That is a better value
Raef: You just know alot of mac info..you probably use a mac for work and home?
Raef: Right?
David: Actually, I'm A student
David: I'm a good comparison shopper
Raef: Any educated person would
Raef: What other questions did you have?
David: I also heard that XP has some problems
David: At least the home edition
Raef: nope... that is the nice thing about getting a build to order system. We install the lastest drivers from MS and give them to you. Just got a system, and no issues here
Raef: I got the Pro version though.
David: But you don't know about the home version
Raef: Just checked the Tech log and the last issue logged was in Jan.
Raef: For Windows XP home.
David: I find that hard to beleive as I am just about the most computer knowlageable 14 year old on the planet
Raef: ok..
David: My life is computers
Raef: cool...
David: And your one of the smartest guys in your department
Raef: lol.. I would not say that
David: your the only guy who figured out I was a Mac user
Raef: Will you hire me one day when you start your own company?
David: about 10 guys have talked to you guys to see how much you guys knew about the product your dissing
David: And they put things more blatently than me
David: about what the mac could do
David: where are you
David: and yes, I probably will hire you if you want to work as the vice CEO of apple
David: I might start an architecture firm though when I get out of MIT
David: I have an 800 on my math SAT already. I got it at age 13
David: say something
David: please
David: o, and maxine said that the only way to raise the screen was to sit it on books
David: TALK
David: PLEASE
David: I have to do homework
