Welcome!

As a system matures, is there a good indicator that a service should be split into smaller services?  Are there design considerations that can prevent this from occurring or ease the transition to multiple services?
Thanks!

I would take a look at IzPack for the installer.  I have also heard good things about NSIS, but I think NSIS only supports Windows.

Making executables is pretty easy with Launch4j.

Determining the best database is really subjective.  Here are a couple of good database systems.  If you have a database server being used by remote clients I would consider MySQL/MariaDB.  If the database is local I would consider sqlite.  My only reasoning is that they are well suited for general DB tasks, simple enough to implement, and they are popular enough to get good free help.

I am assuming you are not looking to store binary values.  If you are there are better databases for that, but I don't have experience with any of them.

If I were you, I would probably search for some kind of open source music program.  Once you find a project idea you like, get involved with it and work a few issues.

Does anyone have any experience with these two processors and their differences? I've read online that, in practice, the Core 2 Duo is maybe 10-15% faster, but since I'm coming from a 667 mhz G4, and Abode Creative Suite is finally native-ish, I'll be thrilled either way.

macworld does speed tests:
here is the 15" Macbook pro core 2 duo.(2.33GHz)
here is the 15" Macbook pro core duo.(2.16GHz)

Here's a list of computers in case you want to look at others

I thought it was more funny then scary unless IE doesn't stand for internet explorer

I once saw a usb antena for wireless range increase it was three feet tall and I think like $100 or more... and the increase was I think 300Ft. not sure if that would increase speed though.
If you think this could help tell me and Ill find it (its in one of my Macworld magazines)
