    [quote]So TV itself is passive, but the future of the digital home hub with TV is not.<hr></blockquote>

    From your roundly ignored MSNBC posting:

    ?Consumers don?t want to have extra menus on their TV screens,? Doherty said. ?One or more tablets become the way to schedule TV programs, get the recipe Martha Stewart is making, or buy the jacket Jennifer Aniston is wearing.?

    Yeah pretty active stuff. Sounds like another revenue stream for advertisers and MS.

    Man, just give it up! If you have a problem with it than don't read this thread and don't post. Move on!

    As Aries quoted, there is something of a cast of characters to enjoy. I actually enjoy Kormac's threads too. (In spite of myself) I don't want him to go away. But every hero needs a nemesis...

    [quote]I have quiet some information about APPLE but I am not Insider.

    You will see what it is from coming product.

    Again, I will make clear.

    I don't work for APPLE & company which work for Apple directly.

    And What steve will do Monday is only Steve know.



    Is it O.K with you ?<hr></blockquote>

    Part 3



    Steve bring Product manager from Aliace/Wavefront to show new Maya.



    Thank?s to Dual Raycer chip?s capability, it show the best speed and quality in any platform.



    Then he bring Manager from Finalcutpro to show how fast the rendering of HDTV Editing can be done.



    He bring Adobe Photoshop manager to show New photoshop 7?s speed!



    Also he show the New capability of Sound system New PowerMac G5 have.

    -OS X can use more than 2 channel of sound. AC-3, Dolby surround, MIDI by Firewire, ring a bell ?



    Also He show the capability of new bus using data transfer rate of New SCSI 320 !



    Steve: To match with this new system, We are announcing new Cinema Displays!



    17 inch wide, 20 inch wide and 23 inch wide TFT-LCD based Cinema Display!



    - Wide format make it look smaller than regular aspect ratio TFT-LCD.



    Steve: How is this system! it is the best system you can buy in whole world!



    But We wanted to beyond that !



    Everybody getting interesting now!



    We will have New machine to show! It is our new PowerMac G5 Quad 1.6GHZ !



    This is so fast that it is the Best!



    He show Maya demo again with Quad system compare to dual system and it is twice fast!



    However , it need New OS X 1.2 and we will deliver it early march!



    Everybody disappointed for delay. However everybody think something strange that steve announce this system so early!



    Steve: You might have question that why We introduce something like this so early. I have to tell you something more today !



    The PC market is slowing down & everybody think there is nothing computer industry can create new area because everything was done.



    I think that is not so. The future belongs to new area of computing which only could solved by Million dollar super computer !



    Like DNA research, Engineering CAD system, and many many scientific calculation !



    These problem was beyond of PC?s ability! So we decided to go beyond the PC's limit!



    But for APPLE, to get into this area will take too much time consuming and very costly.





    To solve this problems for APPLE, we decided to do something big!



    Today we announce .......



    To be continue with Part 4.

    Ok Kormac. You have predicted a Quad 1.6 GHz machine to be introduced tomorrow at Macworld. If you are wrong, say goodbye to whatever credibility you may have left on these boards.

    nice story

    Unfortunately not even close to the thruth.

    Let alone the G5 (it´s not ready yet, we´ve been through this many times) 10.2 is not even halfway done, _at least_ another three month of work ahead, not even been seeded etc.



    But a good read anyway, keep ´em coming.





    bye.

    But he also said it won't be ready till March. So he can get away with another 3 months of credibility...unless its not announced at MacWorld Tokyo either. heh



    Though if there aren't ANY G5s released or announced tomorrow I'm never reading a Kormac thread again.

    PART 4



    Steve: We decided to buy SGI !



    SGI has been major supplier for CAD, Virtual reality, Multimedia Server, and Many professional area. And As a member of PIXAR, we bought many of their system and I liked it.



    We are buying SGI with one apple stock with 10 SGI stock !



    After we got the approve from SEC, APPLE will reorganized to two division !



    First Division is Macintosh Division. It will be charge with Consumer & Pro-sumer Market!

    Second Division is SGI Division. It will be charge with Professional Market and Server Market.



    We will be using ALL SGI?s technology into Macintosh in the future and SGI Division?s system will use New OS X Pro OS in the future Also SGI division will change all of their CPU to PowerPC base system in the future!



    And we are terminating NT & Linux base system development soon and We will convert these system with Darwin base OS.



    Now I will show this APPLE?s SGI system can do!



    He show Fast 3D graphic capability of Onyx 3000 with MAYA And Virtual reality S/W !



    Steve: Now Maya became One of APPLE's S/W ! Since SGI has Alias/Wavefront!



    And he show how Origin 3000 Server can be used for Quicktime 6 MPEG-4 server!



    And Steve see his watch. It is a little Over 2 hour Passed .



    Steve : Thank you very much to come to MacWorld San Francisco ! have a good day.



    And he leave the stage.The usual Ending Music is On.



    Everybody was excited but disappointed of New Digital device was not introduced. And People get up to leave the room.



    Suddenly The light go to low and a Voice came from all around stage. It is surround sound !



    It Say that with low voice,



    ? You thought it was Over! But it is just started !?



    And Steve came back to stage !.



    To be continue at Part 5.



    It will be later today since it is a day before MWSF!



    See ya later.

    Lots of predictions! I assume the i**** v2 is the digital hub item? Which ones of these do you REALLY think will happen?
  • Reply 135 of 254
    This is my understanding of what Apple try to tell you guys !



    Macworld Expo, This One is big. Even by our standards

    :If what I think became reality, Apple will be right about this line.



    To BOLDLY Go Where No PC Has Gone Before!

    : With G5,SGI technology and Domino, Raycer etc etc.., No PC can not come close!



    It's like a backstage pass to the future

    : With SGI Technology , We are in the future!



    Full speed ahead: lust factor ten

    : With New OS X 10.2 with Multi-process capability with New Cluster capability, you can put as many as 256 CPU and beyond and No limit with Gigabit Ethernet Clustring!



    Finally.



    Beyond the rumor sites. Way beyond

    : Many site say G3 iMac, No G5, No new device, etc etc ....



    Who might be the source ! If I am a APPLE, I will tell a lot of thing to confuse others.



    Think. The Best defence is offence!



    P.S.: Did I miss some line ? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

    Those are some pretty bold statements Kormac.



    If Apple has G4 PowerMacs, G3 iMacs and just a digital camera tomorrow...with no merger/buyout announcements you may need to change your name to post here again.

    I enjoy Kormac's threads for their interesting ideas and posts but no one at this point has any reason to think he's more special than the rest of us. Kormac has been making guesses, albeit educated ones with al those links he throws at us, for probably 2 years now. People still think he has inside info. This expo won't change that attitude. Enjoy his posts for what they are.

    if you are right about apple buying sgi on a ten for one stock swap there are going to be some pretty po'd speculators out there who paid 3 dollars a share for their sgi stock. Apple closed at under 24.

    But something is happening at sgi.
