  • Are you kidding me? This update is HUGE. CoreData is HUGE. 10.4 and Xcode 2 will be a boon for developing inhouse apps. I'm on it like white on rice, like ugly on an ape, like stink on shit, etc, etc.
  • I started to pick up some Cocoa a couple years ago as a hobby, but ran out of time. I tried self-taught by buying a C book and working through it. I actually learned quite a bit that way. But, I needed some structure, so I took an intro to C clas…

  • ...some new HDTVs have DVI inputs. I'm not entirely sure if you can drive those with regular computer DVI outputs as there are a few variants of DVI interfaces. Samsung's new HDTVs come with both DVI inputs AND an HDTV tuner for around $600. Th…
  • ...when Apple implements the Nvidia MXM interface. There is no reason for Apple not to offer an upgradeable vid card. Especially for $1299-$1899. I would have already ordered one if they had. Since they didn't, no soup for you, Apple. My on…
  • ...crap, crap, crap, and more crap. Christ, I can't believe how many people are lauding this POS. Nvidia MXM upgradeable video? Uhh, no. But hey, if you want a $1299 computer without wi-fi or bluetooth ($1430 with both) that you get to tos…
  • ...I got an iRack (not to be confused with the iRaq which is FAAAAR more expensive) and shoved the guts of mine in it and use it as an iTunes player. Expensive, but cool as hell.
  • Quote: Originally posted by Powerdoc The specs reported by thinksecret seems very conservatives and therefore should be considered accurate. The pizza box looks, is a little disapointing for me, the magic arm of the I mac G4 LCD was really a …
  • Quote: Originally posted by @homenow #1 the rumor has them starting at $1299, not $999. #2 the 1.6 Ghz G5 was not touted as awsome, as I recall the consensus was that it was not worth the price. Initial sales figures reflected that as well, a…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha Oh for christ's sake. I give up. You're incapable of being reasoned with. The above quote is *SPECULATION* you idiot. It *MAY* or *MAY NOT* be correct. What *I SAID* was that the 5200 was fine *FOR THE…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Nobby Hey, I'm a new member, and I'm looking to buy a Mac for the first time. I'm most likely going to get an Imac, but I have some questions. Basically I was going to get the present Imac G4, it is prefect for my use …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha You must be being obtuse on purpose, because no one's this stupid in real life... Low-end = $999 model. Period. Now go away. ...who is obtuse? You? If you could both read AND comprehend, take ano…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha Dodging it or saying "well *WE* don't know!" will be taken as acknowledgment that you don't have an answer to it, and are sticking to the FUD. If you do, I'd love to hear it, because I can't think of anything…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha Ahhhhh... so you're intimately experienced with the hardware requirements of CoreImage? You know for a fact that CI will have problems on this? Do share with us your in-depth experience, I'm sure we'd be thri…

  • ...once again, Apple feels it necessary to stick it in, twist it, and break it off in their customer's ass. I hated Apple for forcing me to sell the IIvx for 3 months knowing the Centris 650 was out soon. I was hoping they would grow to respect …
  • ,,,I think they ought to go into the market with the largest number of customers. A consumer tower. "We'd rather sell iPods than consumer machines" was what they said, or something along those lines. I know it would cost far too much to take …
  • ...I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that Apple decided to spend millions engineering some crazy case that requires air cooling. Hey, Apple, how about a simple freaking mini-tower? Christ, I get tired of this Function Follows Form BS…
  • Quote: Originally posted by johnq Bite me. That's the same B.S. as "Macs are just good for graphics, if you are going to run a business you need a PC running Excel" crap that we hate so much coming from Wintel people. Last thing we need is intra-…
  • ...this is so stupid. Anybody who is doing Photoshop or video editing on an iBook or eMac isn't doing it in a production environment. Apple's core is professionals willing to shell out $7,000 for a Dual 2.5GHz G5 with a nVidia 6800 Ultra with a …
