  • I don't see this coming to fruition. The only reason why Mac OS software isn't rampantly pirated in East Asia is because you need Apple hardware to run it on. Apple makes its money on hardware. It would need to sell way cheap hardware to compete …

  • Hey, one thing we've been missing about this Lucida thing is its timing vis-a-vis the upcoming videoconferencing that Jobs mentioned. Now, if it had MPEG-4 compression via QT6, would it be able to stream video to a nearby Mac via AirPort? I'm just a…

    in new powerbooks releasing soon? Comment by chromos April 2002
  • For me, I wouldn't find an iPod with direct-rip capabilities to be very compelling... I'm already maxed out on my 'pod 2x over, so I really need iTunes ability to make playlists. However, an interesting turn of events in the RIAA/Napster trial: f…
    in MOSR sounds like kormac76: Comment by chromos February 2002
  • If there's CD-RW on these things, what's to keep the RIAA jumping on Apple's collective a$$? I mean, the iPod then becomes a portable piracy machine!! (if I'm understanding this right)

  • Wasn't the iPod introduction held at the Apple campus itself?

  • Was this still a dream? And, could even Mr. Jobs reunite with her after those rude remarks? She == TV? Those remarks he made about turning off one's mind in front of the TV? Had she changed for the better? Could Stevie see her more clearly, or i…
