What I hope for is a relatively cheap dedicated audio/video device that I can hook up to a home network with a path to the internet. This would not be a Souped up Mini, but a device that is tuned to doing video great, and if I can access the interne…

Quote: Originally posted by icibaqu I think there's that developers conference in August I think it will be called Mac Pro and I think the redesigned version of the iMac, when it eventually comes, might be called just "Mac" The iMac won…

Quote: Originally posted by Archstudent My original point was that it is irritating when people assume that noone else needs a multi button scrolling mouse or dedicated VRAM, just because they themselves do not need/like them. I also pointed out…

Quote: Originally posted by JeffDM One thing I'd really love to get is the (I think Wacom) tablet that acts as monitor too, so the direct mapping makes intuitive sense for a person used to drawing by hand. I've read some luke-warm review of t…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross I don't think they would "hand them over". But other companies are already doing movie deals. There isn't any reason to believe that Apple wouldn't be able to do them as well. But from what I have read, ru…

Quote: Originally posted by backtomac Is the supply of low clock core duos and core solos that tight? Is this a manufacturing issue that is only affecting Apple? Seems Apple is the only maker with these issues. Supply of chips might not be an…

Quote: Originally posted by Porchland I think the movie content is already there. Look at who Apple has already signed up for TV -- Disney, Universal, Viacom and Fox -- and you have a huge critical mass for film content. (Of the three major cont…

Quote: Originally posted by backtomac Agreed. They need to get the Macbooks out pronto. The school where my children attend is making their purchasing decision for computers now. While they were never considering Macs, purchasing decisions for ne…

Well, someone elses opinions would be welcome as well. I'm really itching to get ahold of a new computer, my 450 Cube is really showing its age, but I'm bulking at paying full price on a 20" iMac due to other financial obligations.

Quote: Originally posted by melgross I don't know how many people here remember this, but Apple was accused of having too many choices. It was said to confuse the consumer. Jobs simplified the line-up. I'm not sure if he wants to expand it yet…

Quote: Originally posted by minderbinder Elgato also has a $149 box without hardware compression. The Duo should be able to handle the compression. I don't know if it can pause live TV. Intel's VIIV spec lists the Core Duo as a minimum requ…

My prediction is that the Boom Box fails. People that want to spend big money on audio components for the Living Room want 5.1 or better surround to connect their video to as well as their audio. For a portable the iPod is sticking out pretty high a…

I think the obviouse thing coming is a device to send video to a TV, all signs point to it. It even makes sense that Steve originally planned to anounce the Disney buyout of Pixar and new media additions to iTMS in San Fran as a lead in to such a de…

Interesting not on big screen TV's, VIIV, and the Mac. While reading the paper this weekend I browsed through the ads as usual just looking at TV's and prices. I'm not in the market at the moment but look about every week to see where the prices are…

Rumors forums are for discussing rumors, so we should not be hard on Rolo becouse the one that he posted turned out to be wrong. It was entertaining, and brought a lot of trafic to the site. It also brought about some serious discussion on what peop…

Quote: Originally posted by cuencap what do you mean PowerBooks lingering around until the end of the year? are you refering to the unsold powerbooks that stores still have? I would imagine that two factors are working that will keep PowerPC…

The bulk of the large scale publishing market will wait for 12-18 months (after the hardware/software release) before a transition to the next version of Quark or InDesign. Their buisness relies too much on their hardware and software working predic…
