512 Gigs of Ram

300 Ghz System Bus

80 Terrabyte UltraSCSI IV Harddrive

SGI Superhighend Graphics Card

10 USB III Slots

5 Firewire II Slots

Terrabit Ethernet

Superduperoverdrive:

128X Read

128X Burn

handles DVD's and just about anything else Â* that's round, shiny and fits in the slot.



Bulletproof Titanium Alloy Enclosure.

in the shape of em.... anything you want (customisable)

Apple symbol glows

Wireless Monitor Port

Wireless Power

Wireless Keyboard and Mouse



Mac OS XX (20)

Internet Explorer? Ha! No!

Apple World Browser v. 5.0 (developed with Netscape)

    ONLY TERABIT?!? WTF?!?



    also, what about a glow in the dark keyboard? what about PCI slots? what about a remote control? what about THX certified wireless speakers? what about gigabit airport? what about...etc.



    just goes to show you--you can never please everyone...

    This computer must emulate PCI cards and fabricate the ports with internal robots. You just insert the raw materials in a slot...

    While I would love to dream of an "Super-Mac" like everyone is posting, what Apple would produce to entice me to buy a new Mac is a little more realistic. As a Designer I need a relatively powerfull computer to work on at home, but right now I'm using a 400 mhz G3 at work so any of the G4s on the market would be more powerfull than what I currently use. At the same time I want as much value as I can get for the money I spend. So my "dream" Mac looks something like this:



    800 mhz G4, preferably upgradable to a dual with a blank ZIF socket on the daughter card.

    266 mhz system/memory bus

    128 MB Ram, upgradable to 2GB

    CDRW, or Combo drive

    20-40 GB HD at low end

    3 free PCI slots

    Gigabit Eathernet

    2 Firewire ports

    4 USB ports

    AGP X8 (X4) Video card with support for Dual Monitor with SVideo out



    All this for as close to $1,000 as possible

    That sounds pretty reasonable but Apple would never price it that low.
