People, going off topic with the AppleTV stuff? Get it together.

Lots of posts in one recent discussion have been deleted, a certain poster's inflammatory posts have only been edited to remove inflammatory lines with no note as to who edited them. Posts on the opposing side that haven't been breaking any rules we…

I'm not a big fan of it, but I think it can be reasonably argued that people buying the smaller model aren't power users anyway. The previous 21" model was not very upgradeable anyway given you have to cut & later replace the adhesive. I'd sugg…

I'm pretty surprised to see the turn around in attitude on Isaacson's book. I don't remember seeing this amount of negativity about the book previously. At least it seems like the tide has turned there. I can't say I'm surprised about people being …

It's just a BOM. Yeah, it's not a lot of things, but a BOM means something pretty specific. I'm amused at how the article text is defensive about it, and yet gives no context in the form of a comparison to similar estimates of competing products.

I'm guessing that HBO is more aggressive about limiting where their services stream because they own the content and the service. Why they care so much is anyone's guess, but they might have content sublicense contracts to protect. Netflix probably…

Isn't part of the problem sites like this that promote the guestimators and spread their "information"?

This isn't the first AppleInsider / Adorama iMac 5k deal. Are these machines not selling well enough? If it's a harbinger of an official price drop, I'd welcome it. It's not a sure thing, but I think there's precedence.

"We have X better by some dubious margin" But what about Y, Z, A, B & C? I still haven't warmed up to the new Windows. The Tile UI doesn't mean jack if the apps for it are sparse.

Applecare is a nice bonus, though I'd want to flip the printer.

A protruding lens like that is a bad idea. The iPhone 4 had a slightly protruding lens, and it got scuffed up if you weren't paying attention. The lens should have been slightly recessed. I know it's fixed on the 5s, I didn't check on the in-between…
