  • I see real potential here I favour JYD's Powermac Evo 5 'FQ' - The TRANSMOGRIFIER'. It has a certain 'style'... It would be an awesome intro WWDC speech too, I can see it now: Quote: "Steve: Oh and one more thing..." .... The word T…

  • As the 'alleged' time of the 970 approaches, so does my previous happy anticipation... I just bought a 867 PB 12", which I am impressed with, but only because I expected 'nothing' in advance with the 970 around the corner and all... Rather tha…
