  • Daffy Duck, I wont disagree with the blooming being a possibility, but if that were the case, then I would expect it to fade away smoothly as it gets further from the corner where the blooming is at a maximum. Instead, it stops suddenly. Too …

  • well, i'm going with genuine. cause i'm the newguy and like to be shot down in flames!
    in Is this the video iPod??? (PIC) Comment by fisha February 2006
  • original debunking approach credit has to go to someone else on one of the linked pages on the original post who talked about the marks first. i just implemented it. i too dont see the point of shopping it in that way,
    in Is this the video iPod??? (PIC) Comment by fisha February 2006
  • likewise. like i say, whilst i'm sure its been photoshopped, i'm pretty sure it is an actual screen running live in the picture. it would be sooo neat if it were true. ( but i'm hoping for an intel based mini to be…
    in Is this the video iPod??? (PIC) Comment by fisha February 2006
  • i'm in 2 minds. I have no doubt that its a genuine screen displaying the colour bars - the light shining through the label is just too realistic to be fake in any way. but whether its the actual ipod or not, i'm not sure. The surround is well m…
    in Is this the video iPod??? (PIC) Comment by fisha February 2006
  • yeah - the limitation would be the texting ability. mind you, if you made the letters to scroll through grouped together like a current mobile phone keypad, then you would only have to scroll though about 10 choices in order to input text using t…
    in Analyst predicts iBooks, touch-screen iPod at event in April Comment by fisha February 2006
  • What I would like to see is a Nano-phone device. Imagine you made a small, very thin device which clipped onto the back of the Nano ( kinda like the Compaq PDA sleeve devices but much thinner ) In the device you had a phone sim card and the mo…
    in Analyst predicts iBooks, touch-screen iPod at event in April Comment by fisha February 2006
  • personally i dont see the lid closed thing being so much of an issue these days. From my own expeience, I run my current laptop ( ThinkPad T41 ) all day with the lid closed and using a 20" CRT monitor. I've been doing this for the last 6 years a…
    in Running MacBooks with the lid shut? Comment by fisha February 2006
  • what i dont understand is why use holograms? i've always wondered why you dont see scanning laser projectors. take a laser, pass it through an LCD pixel which controls the brightness and then hit it off a mirror setup which is doing a progressi…
    in New Projector Technology Comment by fisha February 2006
  • i would say that the Nano's do pick up small scratches and marks quite easily. That being said, the Nano is a superb little product - even the 2Gb version is plenty for me to hold more songs than i can be bothered to listen to. Best advice: …
    in iPod Mini Return? Comment by fisha January 2006
  • does eyeTV work worldwide? or is it a US only unit? I'm in the UK, and a TV function for the apple would be neat here too.
    in T.V. tuner for IMac Comment by fisha January 2006
  • the initial spin up of an HDD places the most stress on the HDD. The initial motor currents needed are way higher than the normal operating current to keep it running at full speed. In fact when in the HDD testing rooms i used to work in, the RAID…

  • Quote: Originally posted by a_greer Is OSX worth nothing? If you add the price of OSX of $129 and iLife at $79 then you have a differant equasion all to gether, say a $100 profit In the view of the BOM, the OS is worth nothing. The OS …
    in iSuppli teardown of iMac Core Duo reveals sub-$900 BOM Comment by fisha January 2006
  • 17" is about as large a laptop i would be prepared to lug around. Any larger is just pointless IMHO. 15" is the ideal size i reckon. smaller ones? i guess so, but only if they are coupled with exceptional battery life.
    in Someone explain this to me... Comment by fisha January 2006
  • From my own personal experience of working in IBM and Lenovo, you are never going to find out the actual price of what companies pay the likes of Intel or Microsoft for their products compared to the end pass-on price to the customer. If it were …
    in iSuppli teardown of iMac Core Duo reveals sub-$900 BOM Comment by fisha January 2006
  • Well i hope it doesn't become just a set top box. If it did, then there would be a real gap in the market of apple's hardware ( the gap being a cheap desktop unit to work with an external monitor ) No every one will want the iMac ( including …
    in Whats you speculation on what the updated mac mini spec would be? Comment by fisha January 2006
  • i agree that the media centre should be a different form - typically one which fits in alongside the shape and size of your average home theatre device like a DVD player or a surround sound amp.
    in Whats you speculation on what the updated mac mini spec would be? Comment by fisha January 2006
  • From my own point of view, i still think that even with the switch to Intel chips, there is still a market for a transition box where you can ( if you want ) bring your own keyboard, mouse and monitor. In my particular case, i run an XP Dell la…
