Are you on a modem, or DSL, or cable, and are you on a wireless, if your on a modem select stay connected in the modem settings and if your using an airport go into your settings select stay connected. Also try updating through updater rather then safari, and if you want to save the download just select that option…

No I don’t own one, you should talk to asus or look on their website, for compatibility beyond a noemnal monitor, features like the camera… probably need drivers which if they aren’t made for mac those features wouldn’t work…

First off the lock only prevents other users from changing things not the system… you may want to try zapping your pram… and see if that works…

There you go, define professional by whether its used in that context… I define by target market, not precluding the possibility of using it in a professional context…. And yes steer clear of HDV post…

And HDV gives you true colors….? With its compression its like watching an HD DVD maybe a bit better….
We are speaking of relative levels of importance…
I just find it troubling calling a format that is so compressed HD… the point of using HD is that it gives you so much more detail color and quality… and I just never had quite the same experience with HDV doing that… not to say it isn’t better then DV…. it is HD relative to DV….
This all comes from years of making do and trying to spend the least money to make it work… and to give the desired result, independently its hard to do full movies with out an attitude like that…

My point is fit the cost to the project if you’re doing an professional DV project don’t go out and buy an HD editing suite it won’t help you, you’re better off investing the money elsewhere… Same with HDV if you’re doing a professional project in HDV then invest what is need… I am simply arguing that for editing what amounts to be between 19-25mb/sec Mpeg 2 footage buying a profession monitor designed to monitor footage that runs upwards of 60mb/sec seems excessive for the purposes… professional or not….
as to consumer level… just because its consumer level doesn’t mean you can’t use it in a professional context… it just means that its targeted for a certain market…
[walter biscardi] “So if you plan to work HD, no matter the format, a consumer HD monitor is simply not preferred, especially if you would like to charge clients for your services. If you don’t want to invest in proper monitoring, why should the client invest in you?”
there is the center of our debate… I am merely arguing that one should invest in equipment that is appropriate for the medium…. I am not saying just buy cheap stuff and don’t worry about monitoring properly…. I would be the last person to say that… I spend lots of money to make sure that what i am using is right for the job…
I personally don’t think that the pro HD monitor is going to be as important in the context of a highly compressed form of HD…. but this is me….

HDV is so compressed the color is not that good to begin with, you lose half the information before you even start… you’re taking twice the information of DV and putting in the same space as DV, in other words you lose a lot of color information…. by definition, and having a professional HD monitor does not change that fact… you’ll still run into to the problem of compression…
The differnce the professional monitor is going to make in consumer HD is not as big as when you’re dealing with professional HD, which has more color and detail… so having the ability to display more makes more of a difference… and thus makes more sense…
