When Will Apple Release....
A tribute to the threads of yesteryear and our favorite novice posters:
-A truly robust Macbook: 3GHZ C2D with 1GB graphics, 17" screen, 3 batteries, Blu-Ray/HD-DVD Universal Burner, bundled Aperture, Final Cut and 2 free iPods, and an iPhone with free 2 year unlimited bundle...all for $1999?
-a headless iMac with 6 PCI slots. $999
-a new iMac with a screen "that floats in midair." Really..the thing fuckin' floats, yo!
-A dual PPC and Intel machine with Mac OSX, Windows Vista Ultimate, XP, native MS-DOS and QWERTY keyboard, in a stunning 3X5 inch enclosure.
The most outrageous of all rumors:
The completion of "a successor to Appleworks."
Yes, I'm drinking.

pci is dieing off and 6 pci-e slots may have a hard time fitting in to days mb and chip set ups. more like is 2 pci-e x16 slots in x8 , x8 or x16 , 1x / x4 with x1 slots maybe a x4 slot and 1-2 pci slots.

that may be doable on a system with amd cpus useing the HyperTransport bus.

Didn't find anything under "humor". I did find something under "too much time on your hands" though.
I'm beginning to believe that joe the dragon is an android that doesn't have human emotions or thoughts.
Nah he's probably just can't read so has the speech function on his make read for him. Everything sounds serious when read by a computer.
Sarcastic inflection is one of the secret Leopard features. It will probably help joe the dragon out a lot.
EDIT: If you have a Mac you have to have it read SDW's post. It's fuckin' hilarious.

Man, you're right. That was extremely entertaining!

ROFL!!! And 6 optical drive bays, 18 hard drive bays, octo-SLI and replaceable mobo/CPU from Apple for $105.99 each.

Apple's postmarketing research showed that 95% of the owners of Mac IIs didn't add any cards at all.

what % of pc owners don't like AIO ?
the thing is apple has no head-less system with good video in the $500-$1900 range.
Regarding the % of PC owners who don't like AIO, it's near zero, because none of them have tried an AIO.

And I envy them for never having the displeasure. They're fine for families and others who aren't computer savvy, but their drawbacks make them a real pain. Yes I have owned one. Only bought PowerMacs afterwards.

You forgot your sarcasm mark.
Now, given that this is the Temporary Insanity forum, I see no reason to not respond ...
I worked for a company back in the late '80s, early '90s named Symbolics. We made a NuBus coprocessor card for the Macintosh called MacIvory, based on our Ivory Lisp-machine on a chip. The original version of the card was actually a double height card which meant that it occupied the airspace of 2 NuBus slots. And, then you had to add 3rd party NuBus RAM disk cards which the MacIvory used as memory. (We had agreements with the 3rd parties who told us how to disable the RAM disks.) In the final revision, we shrunk the MacIvory down to a single card with onboard RAM.
I also owned a NuBus video capture card. (I bought it at a WWDC along with a copy of Premier.)
National Instruments made NuBus cards for data capture and other related fields.
Of course, there were video cards.
And, as mentioned above, there were RAM disk cards. (Sorry, I can't remember the names of the companies that made them.)
ROFL!!! And 6 optical drive bays, 18 hard drive bays, octo-SLI and replaceable mobo/CPU from Apple for $105.99 each.
Now let's not be crazy here, Lundy. 6 HD bays will more than suffice. As will 4 optical drive bays. And the replaceable CPU should be free as long as one pays the $1.99 mobile enabler fee.
