  • Personally I think that has more to do with an iPod then a large tablet.The examples given in the patent show it being used as a remote control, cell phone, GPS locator, gamepad, ipod, camera, ect. None of which really lend themselves well to a big …

  • I bought my first iMac at a Circuit City and would love to seem them return. I live in the Metro Detroit area on the east side where no computer stores seem to really exist short of a computer builders warehouse that's really really small. One needs…
  • Um guys this topic is about resolution conflicts. Not what the other thread is about. How about discussing this topic with me.
  • Anyone who thinks they will offer movie downloads at anything less then DVD quality is crazy. So lets just dismiss that whole idea right now. Nobody (not even Apple) could command $15 for a 90 minute VHS quality video in this day and age. Especially…
  • What about this What if this device isn't a streaming/download device at all. What if this device is disc based like a DVD player. There are already DVD players on the market that support Divx playback and they sell for about $50 or so. Apple could…

  • Well all I know is that I've got a mac laptop and a PC tower. I'm looking to replace my tower but it has 3 hard drives in it and a couple of optical drives. I'm looking to gut it and put those things in a mac tower. But I'm not going to pay $2500 be…
  • All software patents should be illegal. There is always going to be crossover of one idea or another in order to make something user friendly. There are only so many ways you can do something.
  • Oh I hate rebates with a passion.

  • I disagree. I've noticed that where something is built has little to do with it's overall quality so long as there is a level of quality control in place. It's more about how it's designed. A product that is better designed will be of better build q…
  • So I guess there is a good possiblity then that we could see some new hardware updates tomorrow or tuesday even.

  • I like and agree with everything you just said m01ety. But I have heard that Dell has a 15 inch laptop that has a 1920x1080 LCD screen. If that's true and that technology is out there it's definteily something Apple needs to get at least in their 1…
  • Wow you certainly dug this one up from the past. And I'm still singing the same tune as I did a year and a half ago, ditch the combo drive. As for the slot loading drives, I've kind of changed my opinion on those. I definitely like them on the l…
  • I doubt it for all models. The desktops especailly would be better off with external harddrives. But I'd lie to see the 17" MBP get two HDD's just for the extended space and data security of not having all your eggs in one basket should one drive cr…
  • Why does anyone here (or any consumer in general) really care if blu-ray succeeds? From my point of view as an average consumer, HD-DVD players are half the cost, the titles released on the format look better, have better audio and come with more sp…
  • At first glance most Apple computers look overpriced. But you really have to get up close to them and go over them throughly. The build quality is generaly very good and they have a lot of little things that are nice. Let me take the Macbook as a…
