If it is way beyond these boards... what the hell are they up too? I mean we can come up with some wild stuff here.
IBM Power4? Quantuam Based Comupters? Apple switches to AMD? G5? Everythings is upped? OS X runs on windows PC's? Man Steve I know your second only to God when it comes to pulling miracles out of your arse but...
and wireless everything---wireless keyboard, wireless mouse....wireless screen...dang, can't think...must sleep...and tomorrow i'm on the road and out of the hospital, so i can't even check on the new insane gossip/rumors that will be flying in the morning...dang...but gotta love apple's style....g
Anyone seen the ads for the new Nokia product that is a phone/PDA device...it actually looks sweet...imagine having the same thing, with a smaller footprint, not quite as bulky, and it serves as wireless phone, PDA, iPod, home entertainment remote, etc. etc.?
Except with the Apple "style," I wonder if they could pack in firewire, 10 GB HD, the oft-discussed "OSX Lite," (iTunes Lite, iMovie Lite, QT Lite, etc). Maybe Apple would have a partnership with Sprint or someone to offer the phone service?
I know crappy idea, but this is too much fun. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
Oh my... Apple better live up to the hype or a lot of us will have trouble trusting it (disrespectful?) again, and future MacWorld's won't feel the same anymore. Somehow I feel that there will be a new digital-hub device but no G5s shipping.
OK, so they dont think we can crack it, huh? I have seen mobile phones, G5-G7, portables, wireless. It's beyond this?
I havent seen anything about a service yet on the messageboards. I think they will enhance the iTools-section to a bigger more integrative service package that isnt usable to the full unless you have a Mac. I dont mean that it will be the same as iTools, just that it will integrate iTools in a much bigger system.
A service that Apple could provide in cooperation with the media-society, like AOL. Like some kind of media distibution network. Microsoft has their network with the media. Why shouldnt Apple have theirs, only a lot better? With a lot more helpful options,
This service could be connected to some media device that can be used to convert media types from different sources, like VCR, TV, old LP:s.
the service can be used from anywhere, but only if you have bought a device with apple. Maybe as a USB device that make a PC to a MAC!
If they deliver G5 powermacs and G4 iMacs, I will be sufficiently blown away. And most rumor sites are predicting that G5s aren't ready, and iMac will get G3s. I think Apple is talking about the rumor site predictions, and not the rumor message boards. Just a thought.

I'm pretty sure they are implying that it will be a new product no one has thought of or brought up yet.
I think we are getting a G5 PowerMac, G4 LCD imac, and a new product

I agree. Something to do with video and MPEG-4, maybe?

Maybe I should up the ante even, to play it safe.

The sound of the RDF vacuum sucking us all in
All I can say is that Apple had better deliver.
They are actually targetting *us* in these "teasers". Wow.
I think this is going to be the mother of all Macworlds.
"MWSF2001. Not your daddy's MacWorld."
This is HUGE...

And to tell you the truth, with the games Apple is playing, anything is possible...
I agree with JD that they are referring to rumor site publication not discussion board speculation...
I mean quad g5 in an iPod form factor with wireless 3D imaging lasers is not likely at this time.
