  • These situations are exactly what escrow is for. Especially when you're dealing with that much money.

  • Actually, I've heard for a while now that the nVidia and ATI cards that are in Macs are the equivalent of the pro cards for the PC. That is, all of the OpenGL functionality is there for the Mac. A friend of mine put a geforce 4 titanium in his MDD …
  • What I don't get is, why don't they make it so that you can BTO a single or dual processor of any of the models?
  • Well, I have to ad some positive notes for Applecare. A few months ago, my dual 1ghz Quicksilver refused to boot into OSX, but would boot into OS9. Turns out one of the processors fried itself. Anyway, I placed a call to Apple Tech Support, after…
  • Anyway, let's hope that the dual 1.8G tower is going to be offered just so people can have OPTIONS. As stated before, I'm sure this would relieve some of the demand for the dual 2Gs, and give them some breathing room.
  • Matsu, Maybe you should apply for a job in Apple's industrial design division.
