    in Faster Sonnet Duet? Comment by jobes February 2002
  • and before MOSR or spymac start a new rumour, 'vanilla' iPod wasn't refering to a new colour scheme, just outta the box... hehe
    in iPod As MP3 Server? Comment by jobes February 2002
  • i have to ask .... why? this has limited geek-only appeal. apple have been selling firewire computers across the range now for 2 years. if you want to share stuff on the network on an iPod, i guess they would rather you plug it into a differen…
    in iPod As MP3 Server? Comment by jobes February 2002
  • Sorry Macintosh I know you are young, enthusiastic and excitable. I am old, jaded and cynical. That's why I'm not very impressed with you posting this same info again, starting a new thread (again). It's only barely relevent to future hardware…
    in David Coursey Says No Home Appliances For 24 Months. Comment by jobes February 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Macintosh: What do people think of this? It is straight from Steve Jobs' mouth...er at least from Courseys memory of what SJ said. I think it's largely irrelevant to this board: a journalist giving a relatively non-sp…

  • [quote]Originally posted by Eugene: The only problem I have with the new iMac is how the CD/DVD tray can actually hit the back of the LCD...I wish they would have designed around that...it makes the tray vulnerable... With respect, I think have …

    in The Pro Mouse Thread Strikes Back Comment by jobes February 2002
  • The death of processor upgrade makers? Maybe so ... I was wondering if it was due to pin differences. The ZIF socket used in the G3s and early G4s meant a fairly easy upgrade for any ZIF mac owner (my 300Mhz B&W was very happy when it got a 5…
    in Are the Upgraders going to die soon? Comment by jobes January 2002
  • Applenut brought up some information from moto on the whole subject of the 74xx family and DDR
    in A Parting Question... Comment by jobes January 2002
  • i believe MacUser ... they have a good track record for forthcoming releases, and they have a good relationship with a lot of dealers here in the UK too... Talking of which, just been on the phone to my local AppleCentre and they are clean out of…
    in From macuser.co.uk.... Comment by jobes January 2002
  • hehe, the warez comment was a little tongue-in-cheek ... as many people here would at least know what I was talking about, and i couldn't say it directly to Apple staff But I was trying to emphasis the fact that the iPod IS a full hard drive…
    in iPod: The Next Generation Comment by jobes January 2002
  • 1/ No offence, but I own 2000+ CDs. I have also built up an extensive collection of MP3s, which I always rip @ 192Kbps or higher. Mind you, I've had CD decks for 5 years, so I buy everything on cd ... 2/ I like the idea of an iBook style A/V cab…

  • 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 jo…
    in HERE IT IS!!! Comment by jobes January 2002
  • so we're talking rendering here? well, i think a quad g4 system would be devestatingly good for a variety of reasons ... i agree with the comments on maya 4 .... 3.5 is really a teaser; dipping one's feet in the water. A/W have ported a lot of co…
    in Apple Hypes MWSF 2002 Comment by jobes January 2002
  • that mockup is excellent ... it reminds me of playing Acornsoft's Elite on my old BBC micro years ago ... the basic space stations were dodeca-thingies, and planets with higher tech status had more complex-sided structures i wonder if adding cds …

    in Surprise under your seat at the Keynote Comment by jobes December 2001
  • hehe, i'm just made up because I happen to be in SF from the 8th onwards ... just enough time to watch the keynote at home, downlaod all the web write-ups onto my palm, and fly across the atlantic ... I do believe this'll be a biggie ... i'm j…
    in Earlier MWSF keynote = more new hardware Comment by jobes December 2001
  • god, i hope someone at chiatt-day (or whoever hold the APPL account) knows about these forums .... some of the ideas here beat the sh!t out of what they've been cranking out ... also i hope that self-same perosn or persons is good enough to leak …

  • i wrote most of that last nite but just posted it.. wanted to add that thinking more about it, i'm slightly less convinced now ... Component parts are an issue compared to a standard ATA HD would be an issue, so mebbe it would be an optional extr…
