  • [quote]Originally posted by Patchouli: I took a walk down to the new SoHo store today and was amazed. The new iMac is insane! The display is SO much nicer than the 15" (in terms of clarity, sharpness and color) and the wideness looks great with t…
    in 17" iMac is amazing... Comment by joecool July 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by BRussell: Got my Ti800 a week or so ago, and I've got three pixels that always seem to stay on red. If it's worth anything mate...I got an 800 myself and the first thing I did was scour the screen for dead pixels....a…
    in 667 MHz TiBook (DVI) - First Impressions Comment by joecool May 2002
  • All I can say, is that my 800 Ti is one sweet deal. And like it has been said before, once 10.2 comes out (and I've heard from some real close workmates that it screams around 70% faster than 10.1.4), you'll know you made the right decision.

  • [quote]Originally posted by Paul: Would it be better to buy the ACPP WITH the computer, or to wait for the 1 year limited warranty to run out and THEN buy it? Would I then get 4 years of coverage total? or just 2 extra? You need to buy the AC…

  • [quote]Originally posted by garyg: I'm trying to put my order in for the Ti 800, but can't decide on who's plan to go with. My delima is that I've heard the Ti's screen will get some wear after awhile because the keys actually touch the screen …
    in Ti 800 screens and warranty's Comment by joecool May 2002
  • Hmmm....the feet don't look any taller on the new PB's as they are on the 1st gen Ti's. I got both side by side and I don't see any difference....even when I turn them over!! Mind you....my 800 has 2 DEAD FREAKIN' PIXELS!!!!! And t…
    in New Ti's out Comment by joecool May 2002
  • Well guys. All I can say is that my 800 is a beast!! And it runs soooo much cooler than the previous 667. It is warm to the touch underneath (being on for 6 hours straight from power) but your eggs wont cook through!! Screen res is better...nothi…

  • [quote]Originally posted by EmAn: You really exppect a new graphics chip? How long was the Rage 128 in the PB? The last Ti revision just got this Radeon Mobility so I wouldn't hold your breath. Here in Australia we are paying AU$7000 for a t…
    in Powerbooks (possibly iBook too?) update soon... Comment by joecool April 2002
  • WHAT??? You think that Apple are that stupid to hit a home run and go ahead and trash it?? Apple have more of a hard time trying to hit the ball, I agree, and I'm sure others do too, but once the ball is hit, and hit hard, Apple knows what to do …
    in New iBooks? Comment by joecool March 2002
  • Gotta agree with JYD and others on this one. Apple cannot just sit on their laurels and continue to slap each other on the back for half assed jobs. Don't get me wrong, I love Apple, and would never use anything else....but Apple seem to have th…

  • [quote]Originally posted by powerdoc: Despite what the guy from Apple said , there will be an upgrade of the ti book : better chip, better video, better HD. Not a new computer just a normal evolution. Apple will be totaly insane if he does not m…

  • Why would Apple have to send SpyMac smokescreen videos of PDA's when they have MOSR??

    in Predictions for Mac World Tokyo Comment by joecool February 2002
  • Sorry to do this mate, but are you fvcking serious?? Try contacting Dell and see what response you get. I think the response you got from Apple was to make to make a point. Consider yourself privelidged (sp?) to get anything from a massive company l…
    in Will you purchase a Powerbook now? Comment by joecool February 2002
  • No disrespect Time, but I can understand why alot of the guys here got ferral when he stated what he did with utter confidence....if not a little arrogance (again, no disrespect). Alotta people come in here and start shooting their mouths off with a…
    in time was right Comment by joecool January 2002
  • Actually, I had the exact discussion with a few guys at Apple the other night after they showed the channel here the iMac in all it's glory. I have been told by a couple of technicians and engineers that OS X.2 will indeed have a much faster startup…
