I'm somewhat suprised to see the large number of somewhat negative posts regarding the new iPod Nano. I purchased my very first Apple product this year, a 512MB Shuffle. At the time I was fairly torn between the Shuffle and the iPod Mini, but dec…

Another important issue to consider is that Apple likely has pretty good margins with the current Mac Mini (in the ballpark of roughly 30-35% according to one analyst report), a move to low power G5 would place a squeeze on this (since the lower pow…

For the price, I honestly wouldn't have much problem ponying up for the 12" iBook model, but PC laptops are starting to become very, very nice (and the prices keep coming lower and lower).

Quote: Originally posted by cj171 the most surprising thing is how long these products have had the same video chipsets...especially the 9200..that's a few years old by now It's all about the $$$, those 9200 chips are probably dirt cheap by t…

Quote: Originally posted by Reid I don't play video games, so forgive me for not getting it, but I don't understand why anyone uses a $four-figure plus PC to play games vs. a $150 PlayStation or Xbox. I'd think the experience would be much better…

Something to consider is the use of minimum system specs when you ship a piece of software - if game developers are tired of dealing with PowerPC-related bugs they can simply choose to develop for Intel-based Macs alone. This is also a relevant poin…

I'm very curious to see how Windows will be implemented on the Mac platform once the models featuring Intel chips are launched. Basically I see two possibilities: - some form of dual boot ability (not very elegant at all) - Microsoft puttin…

This all boils down to one question - what makes Apple (Macs) great? From my perspective it is all about two things (for a consumer) - cutting edge design, and an OS that is stable, secure, lacking in viruses, free of spyware, etc. I'm sorry, but th…
