  • Well, that's certainly news that matters. I guess he had a bet going with the board that he quits his job the moment Apple will switch to x86...

  • Quote: Originally posted by oldmacfan I just thought it was a modified version for Macs only. Could be, too. But since the PC world is getting their X800 soon I think selling a 9000 for the Mac folk might look a tad stupid (especially at $159…
  • Quote: Originally posted by oldmacfan If this does happen, then what. Half of Apple's line is G5 and half G4. If the G5 pans out as it should it the next year, what does apple do with the G4. Dunno about you, but I always tought an iBook wit…

  • The mere fact that AvP is already being advertised now and that it is being done so by the T3-like "teaser" made me put it on my "nevah!" list. I mean, how will the script look like? "And then, Alien meets Predator and they, like, fight for 2 h…
  • The only danger in genetic manipulation is that genetically mutated plants/animals can endager exsiting species up to the point of totally replacing them in their ecosystem. If you tweak the DNA of a cow to better fit your needs you're doing th…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Eugene In other news, the IRL is dangerous as ever. Their cars are too fast for ovals and speedway...especially Texas. Does the governing body of IRL think of doing anything against it or is it the "the more HP the…
  • Quote: Originally posted by andym172 He's not a team player (not turning up for the last race) I never heared from someone ho worked directly with JV that he's no team player. And while I agree with the rest, I am not sure it was solely JV's d…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Eugene I don't agree it was the points system that was the equalizer. Schumacher benefitted nearly as much from the extra points you get in the 4-8 spots. Another thing that might have contributed to the close finish…

  • Agree, Ayrton was probably the best. I don't like Schumacher winning but even if I think he may not be the best driver ever he surely has the talent to do some great teamwork and when everyone delivers, he delivers, too. But, heck, it's just bo…
  • iWorks? SoftImage + 3DLabs on OS X? iLife Update? 1.8, 2x 1.8, 2x 2.2 GHz G5s? Speculation is fun.

  • Heh, would be cool if Monty won the WC. Jacques was right about Schuey, he can't really deal with pressure, neither can Ralf. Monty can, though. And he's bringing speed back into F1. Respect for Kimi, though, the McLaren is really on as fast as…
  • Could it be that, enter the new displays, Appl will move away from the iMac/eMac designs and simply make a sleek low-end and a sleek high-end desktop to go with the (guessing) 17, 20 and 23 widescreen displays? I think KidRed's guess is a reason…
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacsRGood4U New displays available in July as well. Prices higher then current PowerMac. Geez, and I hoped for more afforadble screens.
