I don't care if I like it or not, but as long as the average Joe Schmoe does and it will put apple back on the bigshot map. I hope this will give Apple the same boost it did in 1997.. or even bigger.
If you go to <a href="http://www.timecanada.com" target="_blank">www.timecanada.com</a> and look at the cover photo, you can *just* see the drive tray near the bottom of cpu unit.
Man, I just wish there were some specs. That damn Quittner, he had access to it, why didn't he right down the proc speed, the RAM, the vid system, etc......
So MacAddict the consumer wants to buy a machine with good expandability for about $1300. He already has a monitor, and doesn't want an expensive LCD.
MacAddict goes to Apple.com and see all that his $1300 will buy him is an entry level iMac. Goes to Dell.com and sees he can buy one of their top end systems for $1300. MacAddict sobs.
EDIT: I'm with you DocGonzo...ouch. Sharper Image watch out!
nope, we're seeing the front of it .... look closely at the anglepoise shot on the front cover of time, you can see the drive bay slightly outlined better in that photo, and you get more of the idea of the whole flexible neck thing ...
fvck me jonathan ives .... that is dope sh!t ...
and i'm now glad i'm stuck in an office at 4am in the uk config'ing an ASIP mailserver which has been hit by a massive spam session ... clouds DO have silver linings ...
mind you i'm even more glad i'm going to be at MWSF later this week to see this babies in the flesh .. no QTVR will do this justice
Oh man oh man oh man.... gaaaaaaaaaah I dont have $1800 but I must have one. G4... superdrive... lcd... pant... pant... pant... this is the best possible outcome of the lcd imac rumor. The absolute best. Now I'm wondering what the powermacs will be? Oooo... tomorrow is going to be so cool!
Hmm... if anybody wants my soul, I'll gladly sell it for $1850 (to cover shipping)!
I was just pointing out how i feel OK Nonsuch! It would have been up in 10 seconds anyway I know. I love it, like those swing arm lamps, this thing will sit on a coffee table or anywhere and look cool, its really futuristic and I never imagined them basing a computer on a hemisphere! Any one got the full spec, wheres the drive???

They'll probably keep a cheap CRT model.

Thats what it looks like i mean.

I guess Macs really are "Computers for the best of us" now.

<strong>Remember that the SuperDrive was about $1000 a while ago and a 15" LCD is $599.

uh.. no. those are retail prices from last year!
superdrive retails for less than 500 now and a 15 inch display likely has a cost around 200-250 now.
