I was in that store Wed. night and I live in the area. The store is located in a little open mall called Market Common with high end stores like Crate & Barrel, Williams Sonoma, and Pottery Barn. It's an extremely safe area full of well to do yu…

Why couldn't Apple combine the Apple TV with the Mac mini which could also have Time Capsule capability? It'd be a perfect home multimedia server, game machine, backup device, and HDTV add-on for movies and TV shows. Add a tuner and you'd have the p…

Desktop Mac sales are down? Duh! Updates on the way so that's normal. New MacBook and MacBook Pro sales are excellent. Lower estimates for iPods? Sure, but higher revenues. Lower iPhone sales? The iPhone was last updated nearly 6 months ag…

The big question is, what will be Apple's guidance tomorrow for this quarter? It won't matter that much that its Q4 was spectacular. What matters is this quarter, the December quarter, Apple's Q1. If guidance is too low, the stock will go down even …

The model number of the $899 unit does not match that of a display. Displays are M9, computing devices are MB. It has to be a computer of some sort. It could be a tablet or a mini MB or a really stripped down MB.

What the heck is K29? That's what the $899 model is called. All other Apple notebooks start with M. Either it's a new model or a holdout from the previous generation. IOW, maybe it's the low end plastic MB, a low end education model or something. If…

Here's what I think will be introduced tomorrow: New all aluminum MacBook, no plastic, traditional trackpad, same screen, LED backlight, no FireWire port. Apple will either include a USB-FireWire adapter or you can get your own. Faster FSB, much …

There are such things as USB to FireWire adapters so I don't know what the fuss is about. Apple might even include one. Here's one model on the market that hooks up to FireWire camcorders:

Sounds good! I wonder if Apple will get a cost break on logic boards by switching to nVidia. Apple warned back in July about tighter margins due to a product transition and this is probably what Oppy was talking about. Using one controller chip inst…

I wonder if the new nano will have an OLED screen. If so, that'd be a first for Apple. Would that be too expensive? Dunno. No backlight, better battery life. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDuP8PtDJbE

I have the original aluminum 15" PB G4 that I bought in September, 2003, and the current MBP looks about the same. It'd be nice to have a new design for a change and I plan to buy it. My PB won't recognize the AirPort Extreme card so I'm using the M…

People are confusing platforms, chipsets, and CPUs. Santa Rosa is a platform and Penryn is a new chip for that platform. Up next for MBs, MBPs and iMacs is a revision to the Santa Rosa platform for use with the new 45nm Penryn CPUs. The next logi…

It's fine to have a handheld device with Multi-touch but I wouldn't want to have a touchscreen MBP. Leave the touchy-feely Multi-touch stuff for a larger trackpad like the one on the MBA. I don't want my hands in the way of what I'm doing onscreen. …

Heh, I think I'll stick with my mockup. That thing above has an optical slot the size of a floppy and a way too wide bezel. Oh, and a front latch button but no latches. If you're going to have a magnetic latch, you don't need a latch-release button…

Based somewhat on what Tailpipe said, I've updated my mockup of the MBP update:

If the optical drive is on the right, towards the back where the ports are now, all the ports would have to be on the left but fewer of them. The battery could be very large but very flat. The rear of the base could be thicker than the front like th…
