  • Now that Google will have their Google TV, Apple will want to come out with a feature rich Apple TV and one of the feature will be an App Store and the recording stuff. I'm very happy that Google fights against Apple on different markets because Mic…
    in Apple TV App Store Coming Comment by spartacus May 2010
  • iLife releases were in the past not tied to the OS and were often released when new iMacs were released in january. the iMac IS the cult of easy to use for the family (all in one, iLife). I stay at my prediction and if new Leopard features could …
    in the new iMac (next week?) Comment by spartacus July 2007
  • Rumor sites mention the 7 August for the release of the new iMac and possibly iLife and new iPods. If there is a redisign of the iMac than there will be a special event but they need more stuff for a special event. I think that iLife is more tied…

  • When I look at the new Macbook update, I think about the mac mini update. There will be , if any, a very modeste update of the mac mini. I told my neightboor to wait but now I think that the next update will not be worth the wait. But there is a …
    in So the New Mac Books are out... Comment by spartacus May 2007
  • Do you think that Apple will update the MacBook Pro when Merom comes out in august? It would be only 3-4 months lifetime for the 17". I thnik that I could wait 3 month. I will buy the softwares I need and will use my privat iMac G5 that is so slo…
    in Intel gives name to next-generation chips Comment by spartacus May 2006
  • I have also few reflactions about the transition to Intel. 1) If Apple don't allow the installation of MacOS X on non Apple products they need a chip on the motherboard. Now what will happen if the companies makes a reverse engineering on that ch…
    in What's this all mean? Comment by spartacus June 2005
  • I like the breakout box idea too. How much would such a box cost? The idea is to have two or more in different rooms like your office room, living room and to be able to unplug one only cable and carry the iMac to the living-room where you can confo…
    in Post All your iMac 3 Mockups here Comment by spartacus July 2004
  • What if APPLE introduce an iMac bi-G4. They would have still Freescale as chipmaker and give them a chance to recover from the bad years. I think that it's important for them to have two chipmakers and who knows they could have some surprises. I…
    in iMac Rumor from Macsimumperspective.com Comment by spartacus July 2004
  • Sony makes as good as no money of the game station. They have money for the games sold. If there is more devices that are compatible PS3 than they will be winners.
    in Apple/Sony: Add Playstation chips to Apple motherboard Comment by spartacus March 2004
  • If Apple has glasses like Sony have with two litlle tft displays in it. We could plug it into the iPod and see MPEG 4 movies. This with a good price not like Sony's. As reported by MOSR, I think that Apple will release a digital hub with wireless…

  • IBM will talk about the new chip in february. I suppose that it will be the 2nd feb because everyone waits for an announcement. IBM will specially talk about the PowerManager introduced in the 970fx. That will help it too and think that a Powerbo…
    in New 970 FX details from macrumors... Comment by spartacus January 2004
  • I think that Apple will wait for Panther to be released before releasing a tablet. Panther will give a lot of new functionality that a tablet could use: - Multiuser GUI You have n tablets/users for one server.(Airport driven) - I re…
    in New Apple Communication Device Comment by spartacus April 2003
  • Apple need the 970 by this summer. How can I push my director to buy a pricy Mac if there is no big advantage in performace between Wintel and Mac? I know that there's MacOS X ,etc. But for price of a low end PM(2*1,2GHz) you can get a 2,5+ Winte…
    in Shall we start over? Comment by spartacus February 2003
  • but after the release of the PowerMac 970 the sales will skyrocked. The big perfomance boost will be the motherboard with FSB of 2x450 Mhz and the big winner will be Altivec enhanced application and MacOSX. On G4 and its FSB, Altivec can't give t…
    in PPC 970 date? Comment by spartacus February 2003
  • in PPC 970 date? Comment by spartacus February 2003
  • Reply for ED M. They clearly go head-to-head against x86 and Microsoft. They want low-end servers and perhaps desktop working with Linux with their 970. If IBM come out with such a desktop then we will see the differencies between MacOS X and Lin…
    in PPC970 in 90nm process? (news) Comment by spartacus December 2002
  • Yes I know. If they can produce in 90nm the 970 than the costs for Apple will be down and the margins for IBM will be higher. Need they work on chips to pass from one process to another?
    in PPC970 in 90nm process? (news) Comment by spartacus December 2002
  • Apple didn't make price cuts on iMacs. Are they thinking they will reduce their stock for the christmas holidays?
    in iMacs of 2003 Comment by spartacus December 2002
  • - HD 20Gb(iPod) - MacOS X (2Gb HD) without the unneeded (not really a light version. they don't want two different versions) - G3 (low power, .13 or .10 process) - 128 Mb SDRam - wireless(BlueTooth) - OLED Touch Screen (low power usage-…
    in "Now" it is time for an Apple hand-held computer. Comment by spartacus October 2002
  • You are right. I think that an iDevice is in the pipeline. It's the best timeframe to launch such devices. 1-2 month from christmas hollidays like the launch of the iPod. If I remember it was in novembre. I would like to see an iDevice using an a…
