Thank you very much for the suggestions. I still think that if the process were easy, there'd be a heck of a lot more hackintoshes. The demand is there. What's missing is an easy process. A special forum dedicated to building hackintoshes would be v…

Pure laissez faire libertarianism is like communism - a very appealing idea to naive idealists, but retarded in real life. It just doesn't work. Monopolies are economically bad for everyone - even the monopolist, long term. That's why Teddy Roosevel…

Not bad, though the lack of audio in is very bad for folks who want to use this for music production. Can't have everything. Personally, my schedule is for buying sometime next Jan/Feb, so I hope a refresh will be ready by that time. Maybe even an a…

I guess Apple feel like they don't have much competition in pro desktop editing software. Too bad, because this update looks to be @$$. We constantly heard about how Snow Leopard is going to be great for developers because of all the core services a…

The 8G Touch and the 120G Classic lead the field. Fact is, Apple is lagging in capacity. Yeah, I get it they want to move to flash, but flash still does not have affordable large capacity. You go to 32G and the price shoots up out of reach for most …

Ugh. Really, why doesn't Apple dedicate some time to first fixing the bugs in both Logic and FCP, before adding a bunch of features. What good are features when the app is buggy? It seems like there's a bad trend at Apple of releasing beta-ware. I'm…

Wow. iPhone sales absolutely cratered. On the other hand, iPods soared. Funny, I bought a 120GB Classic back in December 08. To me, it's not all that surprising. In this economy, to be saddled with the outrageous AT&T contract, is asking too muc…

You know, occasionally, there are models of whatever gadget or appliance or car etc., which are just about perfect. That is what I'm hoping for from the new iMac. I want to buy a 24" - here are my dreams: 1)LED screen with non-glossy option - wit…

I don't know, but OS development at Apple is getting me depressed. I was so disappointed by Leopard. When it was released it was clear that they rushed it out - and they were late, by their own admission because it OS X 10.5 just was not a priority …

A simple and stark warning to Apple: YOU WILL LOSE SALES of your hardware with this BS. But much more importantly, you will lose the SYMPATHY AND GOOD WILL of users. That latter is devastating. For awhile, everything will seem to go well, …

Re-writing Finder in Cocoa is OK, however the real issue is Finder design. That's what's broken. I see nothing about completely re-thinking the design aspect of Finder, which frankly is a disaster. A real shame for Apple, that such a central feature…

This is good move - Leopard is a mess. I actually refused to upgrade to Leopard and I'm staying with Tiger. Now, if Leopard is fixed, I may take another look at it. So far so good. The only fly in the ointment is this: ZFS. It's ultra lame that it's…

Sorry, but I'm boycotting Leopard until a way is found to get navigation back in the folder side of the dock - I use this all the time on Tiger. Also the dock is vastly inferior in Leopard - from every point of view, design and look and functionalit…

How very unsurprising. I don't think any responsible professional houses working with CS software are going to jump on Leopard the second it comes out. Look what happens in the Windows world. Many are still running W2K precisely because it takes the…

I love the Mighty Mouse - have 2 of them. I love the scroll nub, it's great. That said, yes, the reliability is very poor - it pretty much stops scrolling within a few months. If the can fix that - plus maybe a bit better placement for the side butt…
