By experiment, given three points as the midpoints of the sides of a triangle, if we start with an arbitrary point and work backwards, the triangle does not close. In Fig. 13.36, we start at X and can construct Y, Z and then X' in sequence. The point X' is some way from X. However, if we 'go round twice', as it were, then it does close: the next three points are Y', Z' and then our original point X. Fig. 13.36

The End of Statistics as You Were Taught It The ninetheenth-century statisticians confirmed their theories by simulating uncertainty with dice, cards, and numbered balls. Today, computerized dice, cards, and balls are bypassing the very theories they were trying to confirm. 317

should be easy to install, work when it is supposed to and provide protection to concerned homeowners. Very often, common sense is all you need to understand and appreciate the nature of a product. Realize that you must understand the nature of the product you are selling or you won t effectively sell it.

Figure 12-13: Enabling the Preview pane in folders that contain images gives you an effect similar to that of the old Filmstrip view.

The Settings group provides some basic settings you can change for the printer. From here, you can change the description and location tags for the printer, the URI of the printer, and the PPD file used for the printer.

Perhaps better known as FireWire, IEEE 1394 is now natively supported in Windows Vista. In other words, it is built into the operating system as a fully functioning driver. Any IEEE 1394 standard audio device is automatically supported. What is most interesting about this development is that this support is in reference to IEEE 1394b, which is the next generation high-speed version of the original IEEE 1394a standard. The IEEE 1394a standard could transport at speeds up to 400Mbps.

First, don t get too sucked in to the notion that higher resolutions are better. The difference in quality between a 2-megapixel camera and a 3-megapixel camera just isn t earth-shattering for amateur applications, and the large file sizes of the higher-resolution cameras can be more trouble than it s worth. Second, if you plan on doing close-up work, use a tripod. These cameras aren t yet fast enough to grab good detail shots from a handheld position, especially in sub-optimal lighting conditions. Third, plan to buy a lot of batteries. I ve never seen a device go through batteries as fast as a digital camera; on some days we went through three sets of four AA batteries in one day. On that note, don t waste your money buying the new premium or ultra alkaline batteries that supposedly give you longer life than the regular kind. The premium batteries cost a lot more and didn t give us a proportionally longer lifetime. Rechargeable batteries are a good idea; you can select NiCd (nickel-cadmium) or NiMH (nickel-metal hydride), but get at least two sets. Also, you can buy AC adapters for most digital cameras (to my way of thinking, this shouldn t be an extra but it usually is), which is a good solution to the battery-eating problem if you do studio work in a fixed location.
