Quote: Originally posted by bergz I will only obliquely mention what so many threads have already spoken to, only to say that Apple did the PDA right once, and that gives one faith that they'll do it right again. And you're right, that time it to…

Quote: Originally posted by bergz The fact that PBs and MBPs are "notebooks" as opposed to "laptops", seeing as they cause 3rd degree lap burns after 3 minutes of surfing, made me think that Apple would choose "UMPC" over "PalmTop", in order to c…

I don't know what a burned hand has to do with an "ultra-portable" device and Rev A hardware is only marginally better. I have had plenty of Rev A Apple products from Beige, B&W, Airport, iPod, G5 Towers. Yes there are some problems that get r…

Quote: Originally posted by netdog The next MacWorld is in January 2007. I would be VERY surprised to see these mentioned by Apple before then, including at the WWDC in August. This dead horse hasn't been saddled recently and WWDC is coming …

Quote: Originally posted by cygsid http://cbs5.com/seenon/local_story_193213753.html This is great: exactly the kind of bad press that might, just might, get Apple to take notice and address this heat issue as the serious matter it is. Funny h…

Quote: Originally posted by Silverdog I am with iMacfan above when he says that Apple may leave this space (unless they can find something novel to add.) It is a crowded space and there are a lot of people running ahead of the standards. [/B] …

This is an amazing discussion on cooking and thermal conductivity on a Mac forum on the new Mac Pro. Might as well get some facts on the table with a link to some actual thermal conductivity with a little information even on cooking pot design an…

Quote: Originally posted by JeffDM But that's not the only system being discussed. Mac Pro isn't a consumer computer, and will likely use a 5000 series Intel chipset. Dell is claiming they have SLI on their Precision 690, which they say is runn…

Quote: Originally posted by Ireland The next major update to the iMac will be in January at Macworld '07. There will be the addition of a black model. The Conroe chip will be in an Apple product before January. There is too much press around…

Quote: Originally posted by doh123 the 5000X does not officially support it from intel or nvidia, but it does work. no the 975 series does not, so this is more of a Xeon 5100 thing that might be used on 4 core Macs, as those wont run on the 97…

Why do we have to wait until the iMac gets upgraded to get Conroe chips? Why not start a rumor on Conroe's in the same case as the Woodcrest chip. The Woodcrest or 5100 series chips are needed to make a dual dual machine and Apple needs to have …

Quote: Originally posted by JeffDM I don't remember anyone here or anywhere using that term incorrectly in recent months. Dell's site says that the Precision 690 uses an Intel chipset: It doesn't say anything about using an nVidia board…

I think Apple 'notebook' consumers are more sensitive to heat issues after coming from the land of G4's. My 400 Mhz Tibook was a dream machine and a true 'laptop'. More recent Tibooks and Albooks have been hotter but not as hot as the PC side. …

Quote: Originally posted by badllama I would expect a revision of the Airport when the 802.11N becomes a set in stone standard. I doubt apple will release a pre-N router just because they make such little revisions on their products durring it…

Quote: Originally posted by Corkurk Does anyone here have any guesses as to when we might see an updated Airport Express? I'm planning on adding one so that I can use the Airtunes feature through my home stereo. I'd rather spend the $120 on the…
