  • The slices are starting to happen! Can't wait until one has tv and rca inputs.

  • Depending on your upgrade, it can be much cheaper to buy RAM elsewhere, but it does depend on what you're interested in. For example: To up the the 17" powerbook to 1 gig is $150. At crucial.com, the same upgrade is $95. But, if you need s…
  • I just can't wait until all websites start using standards. I'm as pro mac as they get, but it's sad that I have to think about buying a super cheap-o pc (cheaper than vpc and xp) just to use a few websites that are critical (some online jobs appli…
  • what was the pricing on the previous models?
  • http://www.griffintechnology.com/pro...wave/index.php This is what you want. $99, uses firewire
  • Some of the information in this thread is incorrect re: iDVD iDVD will be installed and will work even if your machine doesn't have a superdrive. You can take the files and burn them somewhere else, or save them for later.
  • Apple will NOT update the line until 3Ghz. They are already 6 months late from their 'promise', and Jobs won't risk further embarrassment Also, bluetooth as a standard is plausible, but not likely, and airport will hopefully not be standard in t…
  • I guess they could have introduced them later, but then you might argue that they would have missed out on all of the pre-orders...
  • oops, formatting sucked. Let me know what you want in an email (I'm currently doing a financial statement analysis for an accounting class). sworthington @ ups . edu check out my post at macnn for details: http://forums.macnn.com/showthread.p…

  • wow, I'll be surprised if they can only squeeze out one more gb on the mini - would it really be worth the upgrade, or should they wait until 6-8 gb are available?
  • again, the ipod is NOT a distraction. It is single handedly driving the company's growth. The stock price is at a roughly four year high, and all of it has to do with future iPod expectations. Back to the powerPod... I'm not sure the market …

  • In short, no, you would not be missing out on anything. Apple's LCDs are great, but it's up to you if the marginal increase in quality is worth it. For some reason, in my experience Apple's displays seem brighter than others, but it sounds like t…
  • 1. 12" powerbook rev b with an 'old' apple 20" lcd 2. web, iapps, heavy garage band, small photoshop and small illustrator 3. Though it is truly "the best of both worlds" due to the portability and large screen, I think today I'd go with a low …
  • as someone who uses third party solutions, I'd agree. Everything Apple touches is truly a better, more elegant solution. However, it's hard to keep margins up on $20 hubs, and except for style and/or neat features (like the apple power cord's cabl…
  • I've actually found compatibility much better with office 2004, especially with powerpoint (it used to leave out all of my graphics). Have you tried the newest version?
