  • Sony was a pioneer in the digital camera revolution, but to step up to being a DSLR maker was going to be very expensive as they would have to design the SLR body to start with, and then create a range of lenses. This purchase would be good for Son…
  • I switched May last year. I would have switched earlier if my budget allowed me too. Though I'm currently without Mac, I'll be buying Macs for a while in my forseeable future. Why did I switch? I was sick of my WinXP laptop running like a dog …
  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut What else could be the reason? Keynote came first, the following year it was iWork with Keynot and Pages, and now this year ??? I mean, they have cells in Pages - so it's obviously in the works. Whi…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Gene Clean One question: are they also taking into consideration the fact that iWork is being bundled as of late by Apple? It's a 30-day trial or so, I believe. If not, then it truly is respectable. If they are,…
  • The really need a spreadsheet. I wonder if Numbers wasn't added because it wasn't ready and it's quality would have taken away with from Keynote and Pages. To be a serious office productivity suite a spreadsheet is going to be needed. BA's and …
  • IMHO, Intel only binaries will be a long way off unless they're a specific product or designed for a specific Intel Mac only piece of hardware. The reason is, given that the last PPC based product to be sold from Apple will be late this year or ear…
  • Quote: Originally posted by curiousuburb Depends what your primary uses would be... most pro apps aren't Universal Binary native yet. Plus, it's a Rev A... known to be a bit buggy in many cases... Unless you need it now, I'd say wait... if…
  • Quote: In the interest of full disclosure, some apps place many of their support files in your account's Documents folder. Microsoft's apps are major offenders in this regard. They'd use a registery if they could. So glad I don't have registe…
  • Quote: Originally posted by adamrao Anyone know if Rebet XT support is in there now? My guess that is would be, because Canon uses the same RAW format for their DSLRs. Have a look online for info about the 350D (exact same camera).
  • Quote: Originally posted by aegisdesign Aperture isn't supported on the MacBook Pro. Won't be universal binary till March. Yeah I know. Still by the time I get my DSLR too it will be time for Aperature to come out. Used to have a Canon 300D…
  • Quote: Originally posted by TednDi Does anyone know if they updated any camera support in .raw?? From what I've read, it doesn't look like it. The changes to RAW is to allow iPhoto to access RAW formats of several recent digital cameras. See…
  • I was burgaled in the beginning of December and they stole my 15" PowerBook, I was hoping they would announce the Intel pro laptops and Steve and Apple have given me a late Christmas present. Still I a little wary about getting a first gen Mactel b…
  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross Since MacWorld is just about 4 weeks away, I would advise you to wait. since you are asking, I assume that you can. It pays to find out if anything new in the Intel world is coming around soon, as the rumor…
  • Quote: Originally posted by sunilraman sorry to hear that mate... no home insurance or anythin? \ Nah... been talking about it, but never got around to it. The irony is that I work for a company that writes software for insurance. Doesn't …
  • I was robbed on Friday, lost my 7 month old 15" PowerBook. So now I play a waiting game, do I buy or do I wait. I have my linux box at home to use until I get a new laptop, but the convinence of a laptop is important. Roll on January key note spe…
  • I had wanted to move away from Windoze for ages, earlier last year I bought a PC and made it in to a Gentoo Linux box. I only wanted a development server as I had a 'working' laptop. Earlier this year that laptop died, so I switched to being a M…
  • I just go my PB, so I'm waiting, but if I need to a new machine I won't hessitate to get a new one. Of course when the Intel equivalent of the iMac G5 comes out, I will go buy one if I don't already have an iMac G5
  • If the rumours are try, then I'd start worrying about the "It Just Works" mantra. Also the timing would be just around the same time as MS is supposedly releasing Longhorn, is it a ploy to move Mac OS to Intel based chipsets? Perhaps the whole deb…
  • Oh in Dashboard, the track pad scrolling works on the Version Traker widget. Other widgets that have scroll bars don't seem to work, but I've gotten the Version Traker one to work.
