    My 16GB 13" which was originally delayed for 1 month (shipping 12th December) is now 'preparing for despatch' with a delivery date of Monday 18th Nov. So it looks like the RAM modules came through quicker than expected.

    How does the 13" MBP look in scaled display mode (1440x900 say)? I'm interested in getting one, but worried I'd be losing usable screen area from my 13" Air, which is 1440x900 native, rather than 1280x800 (equivalent).

    Apple Fusion drive - is it good?

    I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with the storage disks running ZFS, and using netatalk for AFP sharing. Very happy with it. ZFS has saved my data once already.

    No, I'm male. Do you have to be female to care? (Obviously I mean irrelevant.)

    I agree, I just think that ignoring it is symptomatic of a community that accepts sexism as part of its culture.

    ipad3 been hacked/taken control of?

    Agreed, so why pick on the fact she's a woman? It's relevant.

    If I ran a company that sold computer hardware, specialising in a niche interest like overclocking, I'd want to make sure my audience was as wide, and the community was as welcoming, as possible. There's a lack of women in these communities, for a number of complex reasons, and I'd want to make...

    Seems fine to me. I've pushed 990MBit using iperf.

    ZFS replication (for dummies)

    AFAIK, it's the ability to send snapshots to and from ZFS hosts, including the ability to send incremental updates to those snapshots.

    I added a single 4GB stick of ECC, so there's 6. I'll replace the 2GB with a 4GB when it needs it.

    What was your problem with ZFS performance? And how was it configured?
