  • I would like Apple to provide a standalone wired and/or wireless storage product that can work as an Audio/Video server as well as support Time Machine for backups. I think that would sell very well.
  • I am expecting MBP to update same time the XServe is available - October. Maybe a special event focused on Server side with new a new Storage product or two plus update to XRAID.
  • It's 5:49AM in Cupertino. Apple's home page now shows the updated iMac and Mac Mini. "Buy Now" links are still stale.
  • It's 5:45AM in Cupertino. The technical specs of the new iMacs and the Mac Mini have been updated but the store still shows the old products. Stay tuned. Mac Mini - All Core Duo 1.66 and 1.83 iMac - 17 (starting at $999), 20, and 24" All Core …
