Instead of hiring Gobe developers, I wonder why they didn't just license Open Office and mod and skin it. OO is open-source so conceivably they could do with OO what they did with FreeBSD.

Well, it's just the naked panel that they'll sell to Apple or whoever for the casing and branding, so I don't think there's much to see. Just the fact that it's up and on the website means it's coming soon, but from which company I wonder...

That's alright. The only other rumor re displays I've heard is January. Still, I wonder why the delay for the ADC adapters?

Regarding the new ADC adapter, will there be any functional differences to it? The G5's work with the current ADC adapter, and the new ADC will have to work with the same computer. Or will it be just a new industrial design (aluminum instead of pl…

Quote: Originally posted by kupan787 There already is a standard. DVD-R is the dvd standard, as put forth by the dvd group. DVD+R isn't aproved by the DVD group, hence why they can't use the DVD logo on the product. Both seem to be as compatibile…
