  • Heat is what comes into mind. Why place the computer in the keyboard, that's one of the pains in the ass about laptops as well - heat coming to your hands from keyboard. It's creative, i'll give you that, but essentially the current mini is a better…
  • Pricewise, they could put the Merom in it just as well straight away when it is released. And I suppose they will, at the earliest convenient time that is. Apple might sell the outdated Yonah for a while, but it shouldn't be more than 1-2 months at …

  • I'm sorry but i think that's bollocks. The core duo has varying FIDs (multipliers) and VIDs (voltages), and there is no such thing as magic controlling them. Software CAN be used to control them, I don't know if such software is available for OSX ye…
  • I just might if the cost was human, like 2 bucks per series, and the quality was good enough to playback using my TV. Currently I'm paying 29 euros per month for a premium channel that shows NHL games, and NHL games are a big reason for that. Actual…
