Incorrect. iPhoto does not appear on retail OS discs. Only on iLife. To get a newer version of iPhoto, you must acquire a newer version of iLife. On Apr 29, 2009, at 11:46 AM, Ken Daggett wrote: > > > On 29 Apr 2009, at 08:29:14 PDT, hosemonkey wrote: > >> I have iPhoto 2.0.1 on my computer

Here's one I haven't seen before, but it does a good job of showing the wave outputs: http://www.jkovach.net/projects/powerquality/ The Smart-UPS there has a wave pattern much closer to a sine wave than the Back-UPS. I don't know how much difference this makes in practice, since blackouts are ra

I was talking about this sort of thing: http://www.jkovach.net/projects/powerquality/ The writer says that the Smart-UPS's have better output (close to a true sine wave) than the Back-UPS's (modified square wave). Since the power here has been pretty reliable, and the battery power is only used
