Hmm. Just a comment, since no-one else has said it...this Arman gentleman states outright in one of his posts that he's not under NDA. Dunno how that's possible if he's seen "17 different machines", and his statements sound like he works at 1 Infinite Loop (or wishes he did), but there it is.

I believe he even said he wasn't an Apple employee.

If you are going to insult someone with a belittling statement as least do them the respect of spelling their name wrong.
Compared to the economy currently, like him or not, Clinton did a marvelous job.

er um, I did spell his name wrong, think about it.
And the president has had in the past, currently has and will have in the future a modest effect on the ecomony. Congress holds the purse strings. The Constitution was writtenexplicitly to provide Congress the purse strings.
ex Pres. Clinton was, is and will continue to be a sleaze, he's a pathological liar, any economic policy that benefited the country during his administration was forced upon him, he had to accept the reality of a Conservative Congress. After the fact, he would tie his name to anything good economicaly happening in the country.
This is not a forum to discuss politics and I will not respond again nor continue to comment on Mr. Bill again.

So if a guy lies about his sex life, he's a pathological liar? hmmm, I see.
What about the idiot in office now, who's intellect isn't even half of what Clinton's was. Who lied about an ARREST record, lied about ties to corporate sleazes liike Ken Lay and much more.
If you ask me, those lies are a lot more important than lies about one's sex life.
<strong>oh great, a clinton vs. bush debate</strong><hr></blockquote>
yeah, maybe we could use bush and clinton as some kind of a bad metaphor... jobs as clinton and his fabulous RDF, gates as bush the evil idiotic rich boy who wins even though less people seem to like him ... <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
Well this thread has started its downward spiral toward oblivion.
Bush vs. Clinton, geez where the hell did that come from?
Anyway, latest updates:
Deep Mac is *Still* working at this job, so my post to this board has not ended his career.
He is still maintaining his stance on workstation Macintosh systems based on the test bed machines he is doing his QA work on...
He is still happy to talk and speculate and share information...
Some observations I wanted share about the Future Hardware Message area:
<RANT ON>Yes, I know I keep forgetting that on AppleInsider if your post count is too low and you share some gossip there are many here that feel some how your credibility is suspect. "Talk to the hand", said one poster. Well, since this is all speculation and rumor my thought is: What Credibility? Mac rumors are for entertainment and discussion, or so I think. Remember people what you read here is seldom fact, mostly perception, and possibly some educated theories tossed in for good measure. In alot of cases, it's just plain fantasy.
To put it in perspective, my Source wanted to share some secrets, and I can certainly say that he believes what he knows and what he told me are "Secrets". Are they in fact? I don't really know that. I trust *HIS* perception on the matter. Is his information factual? I trust his facts as he percieves them, but are his facts the Truth? Again, I don't know. I take it on faith that he is being truthful.
The point in posting his information was for ulimate purpose of generating discussion and the idea of "Workstation Macs" is a compelling concept, or so I think.
At times when reading this Forum, I see people get worked up, (well as far as the written word can convey Worked Up" anyway) about the speculation and Gossip they read here. I suppose my humble request is that all of us need not just be skeptical, but just plain relate to what is spoken here as Gossip, Theory, and Fantasy. At the same time let us not lose sight of the value this sort of writing does have.
It creates great discussion, and if any of you have looked around of late great discussion in of itself is a rare commodity.
<RANT OFF>
Sorry for rambling, I just wanted to get that off my chest. In closing I want to Acknowledge everyone that posts on Apple Insider that you are really great communicators and express yourselves in a way that creates, for me, a profound sense of community. Truely you guys have got something unique.
Don't loose sight of it. Really! If you do my daily reading habits are going to have to change and I don't want to read MOSR any more than I have to.

So where's the information?!
BTW: this gives me an image of SJ sitting in his office, pounding his fist on the desk and yelling "Damn, got the wrong one!".
Regarding your rant: I'm afraid we just have to live with the "noise" that gets in the way of serious rumour mongering. And don't worry -- people with high post counts don't have any credibility either, so I have to laugh at people who point to a low post count to prove that you don't know anything. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> Nobody here has any credibility, and only Moki comes even remotely close.
But where's the beef, man? You're posting about your source, but we really don't care about that... we want content!

He is, in actual fact, Bill Clinton.
Bill and Steve were such good friends, Steve gave Bill a tour of 1 Infinite Loop.
However, they've had a falling out and it's payback time.

I wont comment on the effects of spraying Germanium, it's too laughable, but note that Gallium, Arsenic, and Germanium are all highly toxic.
