I don't have anything against him. He may very well be correct. Its just that there are quite a few people that were hanging on every word he said. You must be cautious. The bit about the PowerBook gets me though. Are you perhaps thinking of the new and more durable paint with the higher reflectivity to it? That might make it look lighter. That will not be for MWSF though.
Oh man I seriously believe Mastergater now. He doesn't know who kormac is. He is not a self-respecting engineer, probably not a engineer at all. He didn't know how to edit posts. He says banal things. Exactly the kind of person people would tell secrets to, because he's not seen as part of the game.
nothing revolutionary about what masterbater predicted, anybody could have pulled this out of his a$$.
In fact I predicted almost identically in the "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" thread.
The only difference is I have a dual processor option on all G5 desktops.
Oh and I also DO NOT think Apple will update the portables in Jan. We'll have to wait for Feb or March for G3 Sahara in the iBook and I'm hoping for a .13 micron G4 in the TiBook.
<strong>beer to wash down ass-taste...mmmm...</strong><hr></blockquote>
I wouldn't know about the ass part, but I can tell you that beer is remarkably useful when the need to wash down a bad taste exists. About the only taste I wouldn't try to wash down is toothpaste taste...more horrible than drinking citrus beverages right after brushing your teeth I suspect.
BTW, I wonder if Mastergating's name itself is a clue. As in, he thinks all the future hardware speculation is mental masturbation...which one would have a hard time arguing against, I must admit.
If the TiBook was getting an update/facelift on Jan 7, wouldn't you if you were Apple trying to unload "old stock" add a sweetener to help clear some stocks out? Other than that the choice is cutting the price dramatically, which Apple has steered clear off in the past.

All the more reason to suggest you think more clearly about these things than the typical Future Hardware nut. Thankyou Mr. Robot for your voice of reason.

I've noticed that Junkyard Dawg has been suspiciously absent of all Mastergateing posts. Infact he seems to have dissapeared off the map around the time of Mastergateing's surfacing ... <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
JD has played some jokes like this in the past. He's knowledgeable & know what we want to hear. He also likes making extreme claims in his posts & seeing how many of us he can make look like fools when he reveals himself ...
I have sat back too long because I did not want to post or talk directly to such a bastard as Masterbater. I just wish his type would go away because they are not the type of people I respect. I respect those that have dignity. Apple would obviously not want you working for them and you probably do not. The fact that you would just post what information you were given leads me to believe that you are a disrespectful loser. Do you not see what you have done if indeed you have posted legitimate information? You have ruined MacWorld for some people that wanted a surprise and for Apple who obviously wants secrecy. Apple loses money when this kind of thing gets out of hand. I dont know about you but I am a fan of this fruit company we all know as Apple and I want them to succede. Now some people will be expecting far more than Apple may do, who knows maybe your predictions suck anyway? You are scum Mastergateing and I want you to leave. The people who are crazy enough to **** with me and the people/organizations that I respect are the ones that end up getting ****ed. GO HOME, LEAVE US ALONE!
PS: I have proof you are lying. If you post again i will present that evidence. Be smart for once and listen to a reasonable person. GO ****ING HOME!

I couldn't find an instance where he claimed to be a self-respecting engineer.
However, that top-o-the-line iMac...
We can dream. Speaking of which I dreamt that the Cube made a return at MWSF.
In fact I predicted almost identically in the "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" thread.

Who is Mr. Parsons? TV obviously, although being outside US pop-culture (to a degree), some things/jokes are lost on me.
hehe, thanki
