This is awesome! I don't have a Mac yet but I've played with iWork at the Apple Store and it seems really promising. I'd really like this to fuel Steve to make iWork better (though that's difficult). I guess I'm not alone :P though some peopl…

Yay! New switchers are always good. Welcome to the light side... xP I don't know if a PowerBook will be best for you in the long run. If you didn't know, Apple is switching their Mac line to include Intel processors, and the PowerBook G4 is on…

Yeah, 15" PowerBooks are only being sold until inventory runs out, and then they're gone forever. Steve has said that the MacBook Pro line is replacing the PowerBook line, so when 12" and 17" versions of MacBook Pro come out, the PowerBook versio…

(Sorry, I meant under light operation. I understand heavy graphics/video work turns up the fans, but I meant light use, and not like some PC's, where it sounds like someone's using the vaccuum cleaner in a different room of the house.) Alright, …

They might fit, but I wouldn't try using them. The PowerBook G4 uses a 50 watt-hour lithium ion battery, while the MacBook Pro uses a 60-watt-hour lithium polymer battery. I don't know much about electronics, but if you plug in the PowerBook batte…

I imagine that it would be runable as long as you have 1.5GB+ of RAM, but it might not be as smooth as when Steve showed it to us. I wouldn't want to possibly waste $500, though, so when the universal version does come out, I recommend you go dow…

This is most likely to help conserve energy. Uncle Steve, along with the rest of the company, are all ecologically-minded (and economically, too ... but these are added pluses with the lower costs of less materials). If they make the packaging smal…

I really hope loading times become much quicker if Apple does this - though it doesn't look like it. My brother has an iPod 5G that he sometimes lets me use, and it's quite annoying to have to wait for a video or vidcast to load.

I really hope this improves Virtual PC's stability, usefulness and performance - it would be great to one day be able to open Windows applications transparently, without a major performance hit. Think maybe something like Rosetta? Though I think…

Unkie Steve said on Tueday that OS X 's shipped apps, iLife and iWork are all Universal, so iTunes must be Universal. I imagine, though, that iTunes, as it's probably the least processor-intensive app in iLife, was the last one made Universal. It p…
