I don't see Apple waiting 6+ months for an iMac. Maybe it is because I'm waiting for an update before buying, but the iMac is just too good a design for Apple to walk away from. Like the Mac Pro, there is no need to change the external de…

Apple doesn't need a tax holiday - they should be able to bring in that cash using a simple US tax Less taxes paid overseas. Not difficult to calculate and a reasonable approach. Obviously Apple can also use funds overseas to pay for cost…

I'm waiting - still. Have been thinking about replacing a G5 iMac (bought the day the G5 was announced), but other things seem to get in the way. Right now my thinking is that the upcoming version will be more accommodating for Mountain Lion so …

I'm looking at a new iMac (my current one is an original G5) and this might move me a bit. Since we are already using 4 TVs in the house the buying decision will not be about a TV, but about new advances in the iMac technology.

No matter how big ebooks get there is always going to be a place for dead tree versions. I prefer them for reading as well as for handing around to family & friends. When I'm finished with them they go to the local VA clinic and they take them…

I'm not looking for the iPhone5 or iPad3, which would be the two products that could drive huge traffic. Lion isn't going to be ready and the iMac isn't going to be that big a deal for many - even if I am planning on buying one. My guess? Mob…

With the iPhone 5 receiving the A5 processor I think Apple is looking at the availability of that processor right now. Obviously the demand for the A5 for the iPad is huge these days - even Apple's online store has a 2 to 3 week shipping wait. …

Start with the Holiday Sales period and work backwards. iPods still sell and their early fall release is the kick off for their annual profits boost. WWDC may be for developers, but the WWDC Keynote is Apple's huge free advertising program. Th…

I received an email from the NY Times and their billing program is totally screwed up. The only part I could care about is the free 20 reads a month. That'll let me read the Best Selling Books list. One hidden secret in news sites is thepaperbo…

I'm still waiting to buy the Family Pack of a new iWork. The 3 Family Packs I normally buy are OS X, iWOrk and iLife. The question I have now is IF Apple is going to deliver physical boxes for the Family Pack, or provide another method of buying…

Is HP reacting to Lion in terms of PC level "experiences"? Sort of looks that way. Maybe someone figured out that this summer Apple will deliver some stronger ties between iOS and OS X. That would also tie in with the rumors of an iPad3 in 6 or…

I think HP is going to deliver a pretty good product. If they can return to their roots they should be able to match, or come close. to Apple's quality. I can see two big challenges for them. The first is competing with Android for Non-Apple ma…

Why not one step at a time? Add a 30" this year to the iMac refresh and include an option to add an internal AppleTV. I plan on replacing my original G5 iMac (ordered the day it was announced) with a new one (to be ordered the day the Sandy Brid…

The interesting part is that Apple is looking to boost the photo side of the iPad. The concern is that it will be for iPad3, with iPad2 only having a back camera from the iPod touch. I would love to see the iPhone camera used for iOS. Gives Apple…

Might be interesting to consider a 15" MBA. How many people using a mobile computer in their work would love one, especially with a Sandy Bridge processor? With the larger 15" body size it would even be possible to add a second drive - CTO opti…

Is that the problems was found before Apple started shipping any Sandy Bridge systems. Hopefully Apple didn't receive anything for production before the problem was found. That, at least, gives Apple the ability to focus on fresh production when…

This is my year for either the iPad or a replacement of my 3GS iPhone. I had been waiting for the iPad as my bet was that it would have the same cameras as the iPhone - and would maintain any improvements. That looks pretty dead with these spe…

I'm waiting for the new iMacs. My current one is a G5 - ordered at 6:30 AM the day they were announced in Paris. I think it's about time to be replaced, and the new ones are too close for me to buy a current one. It's just painful to have the…

I'd be surprised if the health issue is cancer. Jobs had the surgery to get it out and the path report from that surgery would have been critical in qualifying for the new liver. A path report showing that the tumor had not spread would have been …
