My family would be interested in this next line of iMacs. I can't say we'd be all over the 23" -- it depends on the price. Our needs would be to run things for my wife's self-owned business and some power use by me. My previous experience with iM…

What about a new kernel or bleeding-edge file system? I find those more interesting than a superficial few tweaks here and there. What about better consistent scripting for apps? Call me an under-the-hood kind of guy.

Yep, that's the problem, melgross. John or Jane Customer is likely walking into the Best Buy computer section dry. Billy Bestbuy is likely going to sell a Windows PC, and John or Jane will just go along with it. Customers flock to Apple Store…

I hate to sound like a bore, but I'm much more intrigued by the rumors of replacing the Mach microkernel. I believe this is more key to Apple's continued growth in the high-end markets than Intel's (impressive) roadmap. Regardless, will the high-…

I suppose I should upgrade to better hardware as my hand-me-down Pentium III laptop will probably choke if any of these ads are in video form.

And by "more recent", Microsoft means "better."

I'm confused. Will we humble gaijin be able to take advantage of this integration in 2006? I know this seems stupid, but I think this is a competitive advantage. While I generally dismiss "domestic" cars in my purchase decisions, I'll continue…

I find this strategy odd. More hours might generate more turnover than revenue.

All I know is that this back-and-forth makes my head hurt. My family (and my wife's business) desperately needs a new computer, and we really want a Mac. Specifically, we want a Powerbook, but I don't want to put money into technology that will be s…

As a colleague just pointed out, he would feel much better about dropping that NAND Powerbook down some hard stairs. If Samsung intends to introduce this product to replace platter drives, they must be as transparent as possible. They'll figure i…

What's wrong with "iJam" other than the connection to that crap you rub out of your eyes every morning?

The part of Slashdot will be played by AppleInsider today. This is non-news. The only "news" I can deduce from this is that Apple might introduce an iPod Shuffle with larger memory capacity.

Any takers on when CS3 will hit the shelves?

Why should Apple acquire Quark or any kind of page layout app? Pages appears to be their competition with Office and Quark and InDesign. As it stands, BBEdit offers decent web design even though it lacks all the fancy bells and whistles of Dreamw…

I assume a friend or relative with a .Mac account could copy the widgets to me. Perhaps they can offer one that shows exactly how much processing is eaten up with that gorgeous ripple effect in Dashboard.

Apple would be best to leave TiVo to whither on the vine on its own. I'll hold onto my TiVo until either TiVo shuts its doors or Apple offers something better, whichever is earlier. An Apple-branded DVR or integrated application seem to be the next …

This one had me scratching my head, too. Garriques must not really pay attention to Apple's marketing strategy. And, let's clean this up a bit... Steve's approach is to announce on Sunday, ship a few units on Monday, backorder the rest, and, i…
