  • Consider that idea officially thirded I'd also like to see the top end PM shipping with an SLI solution. That would rock!
  • I have no idea where iLife is headed though I think Apple will surprise us. TBH they surprised me with the inclusion of GB, I mean it doesn't really fit into the digital lifestyle thing the same way that iT and iP do (and iM and iD combined). …
  • I did the whole "Buy Now" thang when the G5's were announced and bought a single 1.8. Boy do I feel like a lemon now
  • My hope is that we see the 2.5 dropping to entry level, a 3ghz at mid level and a 3.5ghz (of course all dual) at the top end. I really doubt we'll see this but you never know. [EDIT] Of course Apple/IBM may well announce the G6 (dual core G5) …
  • I'll be looking for an excuse to visit this store asap. I'm due to go on a GIC (generic instructors course) sometime soon so that I can teach ALS at work (Advanced Life Support, I'm a nurse) so maybe this is the opportunity I need. I'm pretty su…

  • OOh nirvana If anyone could pull this off it's Apple. Here's hoping
  • Porting iLife to Windows would be a complete disaster IMHO Within minutes of its release (or even before its release as was the case with Doom 3) it would be available on Bittorrent, IRC, and newsgroups and be pirated to death. Piracy isn't su…
  • I seem to remember a rumour about an Apple device that had an 8inch screen , people at the time were thinking this was the fabled Apple PDA but now I think it's this device that will have the 8inch screen. Who knows, this could be Apples PDA only…
  • I agree with the thinking that this patent application is a red herring for what Apple really intend this tech to be for. It's quite funny that there are a load of people over at Slashdot who are speculating as to what the lights in the case will b…
  • lol I was just thinking the same thing... Shame if there's no GT for the Mac.... Mind you TBH I'll probably just stick with my 9800 Pro as I tend to do most of my gaming on my PC..... I'd love to see the Mac reverse this trend but I someh…
  • In answer to the "What are ATi waiting for?" question. ATi currently don't have enough GPU's to meet the demand for these cards on the PC so I wouldn't expect to see a Mac version for at least a couple of months (just a guess I may be wrong thogh…
  • Thanks for the advice but that doesn't really help as I've just spent the last week backing up nearly 100gigs of data and then re-transferring it to the G5 Does no-one have any idea where this option could have disappeared to?
  • [BUMPAGE]Anyone?[/BUMPAGE]
  • I have tinkered with Linux on numerous occasions, with Gentoo being my distro of choice, (one of the reasons I bought a Mac truth be told) but my recent experiences with Linux on this PC's config have been less than successful due in part to the As…
  • Well, since buying my G5 I've gotten used to the Apple way of doing things (ie it's easy) instead of the Windows way of doing things (ie configure these 100 things then cross your fingers and it might work) so I'd like the networking to be as easy a…
  • Damn I was hoping that Darwin may have been my route to a hassle free network between Mac and PC I'm already using Samba to connect to the Windows box but OSX's samba networking seems to be a bit flaky at best Looks like I may have to pony-u…
  • YAY!!!!! At last I can see it! WOOHOO!
  • Is there anyone here in the UK that can browse the UK store yet?
