The Register talked about this a mere seven years ago..... iMac 2001 arrives

Six years later, but ? Next-gen ?iMac 2001? debuts on Web Could see the detachable screen/Webpad thing coming to fruition.

You did see the D5 conference video or listen to the audio, right? Apple is a software company. Gorgeous machines, but it is all software...iPhone, iPod, Macs - they are all devices running key software. Because of that, I think Jobs is focusing …

When Leopard is out and runs Windows apps natively 8) you may see a push for a more "common" Mac, but until that time you won't see much of anything. I think Apple is poised to push into the enterprise desktop space. The hospital I work for is alr…

I can see the iPod diverging into two distinct products. A phone/mp3 player (aka, Nano) and the video models (actually growing in size, larger screens, etc for iTMS movie rentals - aka iPod). Shuffle is discoed as price difference will become moot.

Apple made Intel CEO dress up in bunny suit. What, with a gun to his head. Please. Sensationalistic journalism at it's finest.

Easy upgrades have never been Apple's bag. They prefer you upgrade. They leave that up to the people at OtherWorld etc....I don't think they plan on putting a lot of thought/R&D into the PowerPC future anyway, I think that is clear enough. Th…

More exposure is not a bad thing. Lost revenue is. I think that Apple may tie in hardware assurance so that a true OS X license recognizes a piece of hardware. Can it be circumvented, sure. But what is their loss. A couple of people interested …

Apple is releasing a product for ease of studying/notetaking/etc. It's called the iPod. Classroom podcasts....no need to even be there. Most students will never attend a single class. I can see it now. The average college grad will be a fat, dr…
