Well, they're playing an interesting game with the new line-up announced today. As Bigpics said, they're certainly managing the transition by maintaining the two tier approach for now: catering for the bleeding edge and the incremental updates at …

That's true… I use DropBox extensively, as well as other cloud services, but to do so 'in the field' requires connectivity I just haven't experienced. Mebbe in Silicon Valley, with an always on LTE signal and no data restrictions, but here in larg…

Does nobody else posting on here actually use their existing MBP to make a living with fairly demanding applications? I use a BTO 2010 15" MBP for photography, 3D rendering, photo stitching and video editing. Much of which is used 'in the fi…

i'm starting to wonder if the ipod mini release in the uk could coincide with the launch of the itunes music store here. april sounds like a decent date for launch, one year after the US store went online, and hopefully it'll be enough time for …

Aha. NOW it feels like a REAL pre-Macworld speculation fest. Love him or loathe him, Kormac does seem to have an unerringly good proportion of posts which provoke speculation and intectual debate over the last few years. I'll look forward to…

when VPC3 dropped years ago the mac market was still in flux, and many consumers machines were 1st rev iMacs, with as little as 2Mb VRAM. even the top end machines only had 16Mb Rage cards. conversely there were more 3rd party cards available for th…

Quote: Originally posted by Ti Fighter there is still a big market in scanners. You guys seem to be just thinking of the person who scans in there family photo prints. What about all the artists? We will alwase need scanners. Digital cameras will…

agreed. real-world tests will count for most users. give me cinema 4d (or cinebench), lightwave, photoshop, after effects and cubase sx specs. all 3rd party, cross platform apps which many of us depend on for our livelihoods. for me cinema 4d and…

i think the removable door could be better than the drop-down model in the current ones. you can open the case in a more confined space, and you dont have to worry about cracking/leaning on /standing on the door when working on it. certainly i c…

you can always use a yellow duster wrapped around the top handles to soften the edges which may or not be sharp it's cheap, and it might remind you to dust your new and sexy machine more often than most of us do ... i understand this concern but…

extraordinary i'm irish, and when my sister and i hit california last year, we had to go to Krispy Kreme and In & Out Burgers. Damn, that sh1t is the personification of all that is good with US junk food and the whole drive-in americana cultu…

i'm using an old beige g3 266Mhz desktop as a file server for my network. I have removed the floppy and zips from their bays, and using a Sonnet ATA 100 card i now have 4 HDs (200Gb) in this beige pizza box. believe it or now the air running from th…

at first i thought that somebody has made a mockup. probably just using photoshop for designing the icon and settting the text on the front cover. it could even have been done as a cheap chop in one of those shareware aquafier apps or plugins. a…

Hawtin has used Final Scratch for years, before it even entered full production, and has been somewhat of an emissary for the package. I had the pleasure to VJ at a gig he did almost 3 years ago, when he used Final Scratch to great effect live t…

i don't normally get into the whole thing of dissing articles on rumour boards, but i've just read that MOSR piece, and it stinks. really. i take everything i read on mac rumour sites with a pinch of salt, but their vague positings about the …

weirdly, i have just tried to import a mix my mate did. red book audio, normal track markers for a mixed cd. i CANNOT even select 'join cd tracks', whether trying to rip to AAC or MP3. The option is greyed out, where in itunes 3 it worked fine fo…

ok, so we in the UK have to wait ages. why? in this case it's not Apple's usual 'ah well, the rest of the world can wait' attitude eg iTools, iPhoto publishing, initial .Mac registration, many promo deals etc. it's because of the way music is lic…
