We have living here for 16 years,using toasters,irons ad every freakin appliance.No earthing probs yet.Now I have tried my Mac on the 4th plug point.NO shocks but I can feel my Mac vibrating.This may be due to the fans and Hard Disk rotating.And if the problem persists,Apple I am coming!

No shocks in other plugs means, WIRING PROBLEM!

there is some "transformer"(actually it is not!) which offers a "earthing" for your appliance.it is loong time since I tried electronics(oh!I was a BE ece ).let me remember .... yeah isolation transformer if I am correct.

Laboratory rooms, medical facilities, construction sites, repair workshops, mobile electrical installations, and other environments that are supplied via engine-generators where there is an increased risk of insulation faults, often use an IT earthing arrangement supplied from isolation transformers.

I think your 4th plug point is not earthed.

@Sunny
I recommend you bring your computer to have it checked. Safety is always #1!
@Milind
Very funny pic!

I really cannot imagine what a macbook aluminum would look like. The macbook pro with a smaller screen, no speakers on the side, smaller trackpad, no hand motions and the word macbook pro to macbook. That looks luxurious but isn't macbook designed for lower end?

What apple could work on is a outstanding, powerful itablet, and a mac handheld just like the HTC one and the and the samsung Q1

Has anyone ever used 1Passwd here? I had one question about it's use.

It is recommended that you use different passwords on different computers and 1Passwrd can generate passwords per website and save it for you in the app. But what happens when you need to access the site from a different computer?

MobileMe should be ready by today afternoon, I've enabled forwarding of incoming mail in my gmail and yahoo to send to my .mac. That means I get push notifications not just for my .mac account but also for my yahoo and gmail accounts

 

[narangz]

Is forwarding of mails possible in Hotmail & Yahoo?

 

[jamesbond007]

^^^ I dumped hotmail in the pre-historic era, as for forwarding in yahoo, yes its possible. But, there is a catch here in yahoo, while gmail forwards incoming mail to any other address and keeps a copy in its inbox, yahoo doesn't do this. Yahoo simply forwards the incoming mail to another mail without keeping a copy for itself. Gmail always scores!!

 

[iMav]

Is forwarding of mails possible in Hotmail & Yahoo?

Hotmail, yes. but the catch is that it can be only done to another Hotmail/Live/W/ndows Custom Domain account. Also, like Yahoo! the mail will be deleted from Hotmail.

 

[jamesbond007]

So the moral of the story is the guys whose email accounts are Gmail, Yahoo and .Mac will start having push notifications in just about an hour or so, thanks to MobileMe
Now I am seriously considering MobileMe renewal next Year!!

OK. Thanks.

Ummm... Thanks. Well actually I wanted to forward hotmail mails to my gmail account.
