In the future you might want to try converting screenshots to good web image formats(JPG or PNG for screenshots), and adding a file extension. Putting some .pict or whatever that is online with *no* file extension makes you one bad netzien.

I'm seriously stumped. What technologies are currently being used in high end PCs, servers, workstations, etc. that apart from each other are nice additions, but together add up to all of this hype? What's been announced in the past year as coming soon that hasn't shown up yet? What combination of the above is going to push the Mac so far past the rest of the computing world to live up to this hype?
Personally, I think the hype is seriously tied into a new PowerMac. It's the flagship speed product and that's the best way to market a computer...raw speed. All of this marketing crap can't be about a remake of the twentieth anniversary Mac. I think it has to be the PowerMac.
What the hell have we skipped?
Solid state harddrive? Is it feasible? It can't simply be quad PowerMacs because that's not "way beyond" what's been discussed a thousand times.
Just a new iDevice? I can't believe it, unless it's something that really expands their direction.
Like I said, I'm stumped. This hype has really worked.
No I just got up (european time) I saw the non update at Apple and expected the worst about these boards. You must all have had a hard time
Now this sleepless thing could have been directed at us or....
"Sleepless"...hmmm where? Sleepless in Seattle perhaps? Whats in Seattle (or close to it)? Redmond. What they release tomorrow is gooing to whipe out MS. AppleWorks that really works? X on x86? Hostile takeover (Jobs as CEO of MS)?

I'm hooked on Gigawire. I didnt want to belive it, but the signs are just too strong. Wireless broadband. That is nuts.

I wish I could take credit for it, but it's Warren Zevon's quote.
