Apple-France will introduce on thursday its new work of art in the Museum of Modern Art (Paris). </strong><hr></blockquote>

<strong>What impact might a 70,000 pieces per month order have on the prize of the Power4 (for now it's a low quantity, high prize proc.,but...)? What does it mean to it's prize if Apple commits to use only IBMs G4s for its consumer line (and Moto is out)?</strong><hr></blockquote>
There is no retail price for the Power4, but if there were, it would be *way* over a thousand dollars, pretty much regardless of quantity. Whilst having superb technology, IBM are the most expensive foundry there is, and the chip is huge.
Apart from this, the chip is not well suited to desktop use, it is designed to go into multi-chip-modules, not be plugged into a motherboard, it dissipates enormous quantities of heat, and requires unique chips for controlling I/O and memory.
Lastly, IBM don't make G4s, and Apple already use only IBM G3s.
A faster G4 PowerBook (finally) tinted black to match the new pro towers. The new Black G4 powerbook will have an 800MHz G4 processor and a better mobile graphics chip, plus the addition of another FW port, and a 1/2-pound less in weight. <hr></blockquote>
Plus it's delivered to your door by a Playboy Playmate?.
I have a gut feeling we will see a handheld tommorow. I feel this way because Bill Gates is showing his on Tuesday and Steve may be trying to one up Bill on it. Who knows?
Considering the amount of post padding (this one included) and the new-found hype from the Apple front page tomorrow morning, yes, 40 pages (if it doesn't crap out first).

Oh well, there goes Fran's hopes.
Not really.
Anyhow, I'll have to go by their house tomorrow night to view the footage....assuming that they're up to receiving guests.
At least I'll have time to scan the Apple site tomorrow morning before I head out for work...
....Good Luck to us all!
Wouldn't it be cool to say yeah I watched the Quicktime stream on the AI message board. It was post #2115.

Thanks, but if it doesn't happen, there's always the next show to look forward too.
<strong>Do you think we can go to 40 pages????</strong><hr></blockquote>
Probably.
<strong>Is there anyone in this forum over the age of 25?</strong><hr></blockquote>
