I really think it comes with a card too! But I have ordered a card, a card reader AND a cord all for about $25.00 and have had it shipped to her. I should have opened the box and figured it out first, because trying to do this from a distance is difficult.

Also, any ideas on why my mom's printer isn't printing. She says it isn't the ink, but the paper goes through and nothing prints out.

[link] suggests it does not come with either a card or a USB cable, which is odd.

[link] claims that the USB port is a "Hi-Speed USB (Dedicated connector female) with unified type of digital, audio and video)" so I wouldn't be completely sure this is a standard USB connector.

I'm trying to find somewhere that says definitively one way or the other.

eta that Sophia did exactly the right thing with that order.

This says it's mini-USB.

It sure does. They must be throwing some extra pins in the for the AV cable.

This camera is sold without a memory card but requires one for use. How lame.

This camera is sold without a memory card but requires one for use. How lame.

I just bought a Sony NEX-5 camera. (It's a mirrorless camera similar to a micro four-thirds camera.) It did not come with a memory card (it needs a high-speed card) but did come with a USB cable.

I have an XSLT question. I still only have a general understanding how XSL works, so I think I'm missing something obvious.

Here's a cut-down sample of the XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<CatalogVendorItems count="10892558" offset="0" limit="100">
  <CatalogVendorItem>
    <catalogVendorItemID>4972042</catalogVendorItemID>
    <vendorNumber>AB0001</vendorNumber>
    <description>Fox Racing Demo Short: Black; SM (32" Waist Size)</description>
    <category>Shorts/Bib Shorts</category>
    <CatalogVendor>
      <catalogVendorID>1</catalogVendorID>
      <name>Quality Bicycle Products</name>
      <lastUpdate>2013-12-22T02:31:11-08:00</lastUpdate>
    </CatalogVendor>
  </CatalogVendorItem>

What I need is an XSLT transformation that will return all the children of CatalogVendorItem but not children below that (i.e. catalogVendorID, name, lastUpdate.

I know I could just specify every element I want returned, but there are actually a lot more children of CatalogVendorItem than I copied here. I was hoping for something more generic where I wouldn't have to put every tag I want in the XSLT document.

---

Ah, I figured it out. I have to use <xsl:copy>. And then exclude the stuff I don't want.

Although this solution isn't completely generic.

I just bought a Sony NEX-5 camera. (It's a mirrorless camera similar to a micro four-thirds camera.)

OK, it's been awhile since I've looked at a camera and wanted to buy it. That. Got the camera juices forming. I love SLR control, but didn't want SLR heft/cost in digital.

Can't afford it. But, good to know of the evolution.

Speaking of pictures, I found a set of clipart cds at the library book sale. I did not have my glasses with me, so I didn't notice that they are for Windows (copyright 2000).

Is there any way to open them on my mac, or did I just do a mitzvah for the library?
