This is more like it from Apple, coming out with new products, and generating a bit of a stir amongst the dead ****ing boring world of computers. Dont know about anyone else, but I'd love to have a rackmount computer on my desk.



One idea for apple but. Go for the gadgets. Everyone loves something funky to play round with, even better when it actually does something worthwhile eh. And Apple does have a name for making the mundane look quite cool.

How revolutionary! I had no idea Apple excelled at such things.

iNosehairclipper (where no Mac has gone before)



iPocketknife (see above)



iWatch (No annoying little buttons, just an iPod sized Jog dial)



iMinistereo (hey, so we licensed the guts from Harmon Kardon, but look at that styling!)



care to be more specific?

How 'bout "iHack".... plugs into any PC and removes the XP licence...oh wait.. Damn .. iPod!!

Naw, more likely "iBelieve".... a set top box RDF generator... Sounds like they've been testing them a lot lately at Cupercino <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />

ok then, what about building a cellular device into a laptop. With CDMA and GSM now reaching conventional modem speeds and the next generation (CS3 & 4 for GSM and 1xRTT for CDMA) going up to about 3 times this speed, maybe it's time has come. THis would be one great incentive for the telco's to start rolling out 3g as well.



I've seen the PC cards with little aerials sticking out, why not just build it straight in, hell you could use the lid as a big panel antenna.
