Quote: Originally posted by Addison I can't believe that SJ would agree to "Intel Inside" though, unless it was stuck to the bottom! No way Jobs is going to allow a sticker deface the aluminum casing of a powerbook; no "Intel Inside" will b…

Quote: Originally posted by D.J. Adequate I think you are nuts. Apple basically just announced that this will be orphaned hardware in a year and a half. If Jobs is being sincere, then the life of an iMac purchased today will be as long and a…

Quote: Originally posted by debenm Yeah it sure would seem so ~ I was planning on getting an iMac... now I don't know if that would be a good idea. I say go for it. The iMac is a beautiful, powerful pice of hardware. Apple will support it …

Quote: Originally posted by Outsider I voted smokescreen. Apple will be demoing some impressive hardware tomorrow, but it'll be a Power 5 based dual core chip with VMX. We'll be blown away and then an announcement that there will be some sort of…

Okay, I admit it. I'm obsessed with buying a new Apple laptop, and every day I look around. I even consider getting a used G4 PB on craigslist, which is why I happen to notice that today no one has put up an iBook or PB for auction since the Intel…

We all recognize that the iBook is nearly stepping on the toes of the 12" PB. It would seem both lines need refreshing. Clearly tomorrow will tell. Well, maybe not clearly, but hopefully. Apple can do a weak refresh to pretend they are still inn…

I am optimistic. This is a smokescreen and everyone will be relieved for that and happy with what it was screening or it won't be a smokescreen and Apple will have something radically progressive for us in the way of new architecture. No doom and …

Still, it's odd after all this time to visit apple's hardware page and see "THE NEW POWERBOOKS". You think they would find another adjective to relieve them of this falsehood. And the iBooks haven't been on the hardware page for I don't know how l…

Apple is going to screw its customers out of their $3k investements? No. Current hardware will be supported into the far future regardless of what hardware route Apple takes tomorrow or in a year.

plus more cnet, but new story --> Intel and Apple Woo Hollywood?

Anyone familiar with this news site ?

If the intel cpu story has any truth, I wouldn't be surprised if the PB update (assuming there is one) is analogous to the most recent Power Mac update: another modest speed bump, in which case it won't be announced but updated quietly. Also if the…
