They say those Mr. Clean Magic Erasers work too.

Okay, but there is a massive problem with the Corsair site: They don't list memory under the MacBook Pro or MacBook name. Ordinary users will have trouble finding the right module with certainty. Not a very Mac-like experience. Now, I also got…

ah! I should have wikipedia'd the term! Thanks Mr. H. So, there are 14-15 manufacturers, according to wikipedia. Making some assumptions about assembly, I would guess most of the RAM chips themselves are of workable quality and a lot of the issue…

My MacBook (Black) shipped yesterday (from China).

Melgross, Why don't you call Ron Johnson, Apple's retail director, and ask him. He's the one who told me, and since his whole career has been in retail, I believe him. Whilst there are some arse-talkers on this board, I am not one of them and …

Sacrificing Margin to gain Marketshare Apple has categorically stated that they will NOT be sacrificing margins to gain marketshare. They have said this at least twice at quarterly conference calls. And it is a wise course of action, NOT lowering p…

I already have.... Shipping May 25, according to the online store.

Creative is looking for a golden parachute to get money for the company's execs and shareholders in an Apple buyout. Don't give them the pleasure. Spend a $Billion to make sure they all declare bankruptcy and die penniless. Die Creative, Die!

None of the current Apple mice are worth a crap ergonomically. They do not support the wrist or the ball of the hand. Are they pretty? Yes. Are their innards technically good at mousing? With the exception of the Mighty Mouse right-click fiasco, yes…

Jobs is still personally fixated on the idea that TV is dumb entertainment. Luckily, he has realized, or been told, that there are plenty of people who like dumb entertainment. With that background, Jobs is likely to push the Mac as media cente…

I just got a dual 1.8 G5 refurb that has a nasty problem. 2 of the 4 memory slots don't work. Was going to add 2 GB to the orig 256 MB RAM, but the outer slots gave a POST error when booting the Hardware Test Disk. Will be sending this unit b…

I use datamem.com OWC has had complaints about customer service in the past and bad RMA behavior. Crucial is just too damn expensive for the name (might as well buy mushkin if you're wanting to throw money at a name). I seriously suggest doi…

here's a quick lil movie (80k) I made for the iPod video. Yeah, the timing is off, but the idea you can get. Note: This is a mock up, not news. Superman Returns iPod Video

Let's just not continue THAT discussion, period. Mutual respect is a GOOD thing. As for disinformation, is there any more of it out there from Apple or has this thread died a natural death?

Zab, A human, secular statement (that those who use expletives are showing ignorance) is NOT necessarily linked to a statement of religious doctrine, even if they are typed into the same text box. I automatically discount most of what a person…

It is a slur, in fact the Ten Commandments command against taking God's name in vain. If that doesn't describe a slur, nothing does. Of course, all expletives show the lack of intelligence of the "speaker." So there. nya nya nya

The tablet as it should be: Flexible, foldable or rollable screen that becomes stiff when extended or with some kind of stiff backplate like a clipboard (not ideal, but ok). Scroll-like rollers at each end of the screen for the electronics and b…

Tablets!?!? Apple sold more Macs last year than the entire industry sold tablets! That's how few tablets were sold! Geez, until it is lighter than a paper notebook, water resistant, invulnerable to drops, sit-downs, and baby puke, it is not a …

Cocoa is Apple's preferred toolset. Carbon was a compromise with the classic developers to keep them onboard with OS X. If Apple could have forced them all to move to Obj-C, they would have, and still plan to eliminate Carbon, per se. Just as …
