  • No offense intended: check out the AE support discussions at Adobe. There may be issues with the dual proc systems (unknown, but has happened before). Do the usual maintenance: Repair Disk Permissions reboot into single user mode (hold d…
  • "The year of the notebook," said Steve Jobs. PowerBooks offer more profit per unit sold than ANY other Apple hardware. Put the 970 in it and the profits would soar.
  • ToooooMorrow! ToooooMorrrow! I Love ya! Tomorrrowwww! Your only a day a-wayyyyyyy!
  • None of these bezel features, holes and access points has been mentioned in the alleged plastics details, and the info implied that all the notable holes were described. As for resolutions, etc, lots of folks have complained on these boards and o…
  • While Steve may hate TV, he's not going to ignore it if an idea comes along. I think he hates using a TV as a monitor. Playing TV, video, DVDs on such a device is not the same thing in his mind, I bet, as playing that stuff on a TV set. The lc…
  • Well it must offer a real computing experience (Steve Loathed PDAs and set-top boxes because they did not offer a real computing experience vis-a-vis the Internet, and apps). It must also either consume the low-end iBook's market or be different…
  • By Upgrade I mean replace. Like they did with the iPods. First 5 gig, then 10, then 20.... I think it will ship with Airport or Airport Extreme standard and will be a part of a system, either one you make with your current Mac and iPod, or one…
  • Specs (shots in dark) 800MhZ G3 128MB RAM (256, maybe) 5-10GB HD (come on, Apple will want us to upgrade in 6 mos) Airport Extreme Infrared (tv remote ) The small square hole by the round stylus hole. FireWire, Audio in/out, USB (power thru…
  • I don't think this device is planned as a PDA, if it is real. You won't be carrying it in your pockets. It'll be on the kitchen counter, or on the coffee table in the den, or snug in it's docking station. It will need it's docking station to w…
  • Let's not forget that April 1 is mere hours away....
  • Are we sure it will be white plastic?
  • straight-on shot as requested. http://www.ro3.com/itabfront.jpg I think maybe the corners rounding dimensions are too big.
  • straight-on shot as requested earlier http://www.ro3.com/itabfront.jpg I think maybe the corners rounding dimensions are too big.
  • I made a quick mockup in cararra. you can see it at http://www.ro3.com/itablet.jpg the dimensions are accurate (based on the MacWhispers numbers), then shot in perspective.
  • A lil mockup I made. Not a 3d artist here, but the dimensions are accurate. Done in Carrara 2.1 (25kb)
  • Cycle, I did read the article. Infra-red for Internal use. But why? Infra-red is only used on Palm-type devices nowadays (and that's fading out, replaced by bluetooth). Including it in even a prototype is clue to the protoype's age. And a…
  • Infra-Red? SOunds like someone has an old one-off from the Apple skunk works. Unless it will be a remote control for TVs, VCRs, Tivo, Dish/DirecTV, Stereo systems..... Hmmm, a programmable universal remote that runs apps, surfs the net, and…
  • The Repair Disk Permissions option in Disk Utility use the permissions instructions inside the Receipts as the source for correcting permissions on those particular items. Not a super biggee, but I would not delete them.

  • It was a dream.... I have personally witnessed an Athlon fry. Not fun. Not fun at all. Does that mean that SOMEONE (IBM is fine by me) isn't storing up some chips from some very successful early runs? No. With all the trouble MOT has had in th…
  • Apple's announcing their DV strategy at NAB in early April. There are rumors that IBM is fabbing production 970s even now. AMD is wicked good at fabbing, I hear. AMD is working with IBM on fabs, I hear. Suppose AMD and IBM get into the .9 f…
