How efficiently would an SQLite database run on 10.4? The purpose would be to create an accounting program, with many sophisticated features, most of which would be dealing with in…

The number of records and whether you wanted to have network abilities would be the deciding factors in making the SQLite/PostgreSQL decision. The latter is going to be for network…

I almost hate to respond, because I'm just starting to tinker with Core Data, but... I'm developing an app that is quite involved, and is probably as complex as an accounting pack…

Very nice...I especially like two separate point you both made. First, I forgot to mention that this will be a network-able accounting package and to learn that SQLite is not, that…

Another option might be write an abstraction layer that would allow you to plugin Postgres or CoreData. That way you could test both and also give the user the option to not requir…

WJMoore makes a good point, I just wouldn't even know where to begin...use CoreData but with PostgreSQL...hmm. I don't know enough about CoreData yet. What I have done was to creat…

You can't pass SQL to CoreData. You must pass CoreData's own predicate formulated queries. CoreData then converts these to SQL internally (if using SQLite) or to another suitable…

I can't wait to buy a new iMAC 20" 2Ghz, but has Apple solved the fan noise that plagued the Rev A models? Please let me know you experiences, Jan Boersma

Seriously, I have heard people mention this, but I use a RevA 1.6ghz 17" at work, (I am using it right now), and no matter how hard I thrash it it has NEVER EVER made the slightest…

I'm using a 1.8Ghz iMac at work with 1 GB of RAM and for normal, non-taxing purposes - web surfing, writing, etc. - it's utterly silent. But when I play Snood (probably the least-t…

I don't want to go so far as to say the fan noise problems have been fixed, but the difference between my Rev.A 17" and my new Rev.B 20" is astounding. The 17" emitted a terrible …

Mine sounds like a leafblower, even on automatic. I guess mine is faulty and a rev.a board. I'm not sure though. I don't know if they have fixed it on the newer iMac's.

I don't have an older rev A to compare it to but my 20" rev B seems pretty darn quiet. Just sitting in front of it you can hear the "whoosh" of a fan but from 5" away, you can't t…

Screamingfit, what about when you do processor-intensive stuff? Any noticeable ramp-up in fan speed?

I'd like to hear more from Rev. B owners as well.... I'd be more likely to consider an iMac if it were very quiet.

i have a Rev. B and i have yet to hear a thing... even when burning dvd's and playing games

I purchased a 2 gig imac on saturday and it make 0 Noise. What a great machine.

Totally friggin' cool if this is the case. To the people who are posting about the (lack of) noise their Rev. B iMacs make.... How much background noise do you have going on that …

Are settings for performance set for automatic or highest?
