  • One more thing: OS X Leopard will be sold shrink wrapped for any Vista-compatible PC. Dell to announce OEM deal with Apple that will see them shipping OS X pre-installed. ...and so it begins.
  • The best iPhone mockup I've seen was the one on the cover of UK MacUser recently - it was gorgeous - basically a Nano with a keypad, and a micro-scroll wheel. First iPhone design i've seen where I though "yeah - I'd buy THAT !"
  • Think about this - VoIP is the big thing at the moment. I bet the mobile operators are sh!tting their pants - broadband WiFi is becoming ubiquitous - the UK government for example has just announced plans that pave the way for WiFi coverage in rural…
  • Any idea what the thermal characteristics of this Woodcrest chip are like ? A Quad-code machine at 3GHz does not sound cool !
  • Quote: Originally posted by hmurchison Nah. "OS XI" just doesn't have the same visual appeal. Apple will likely rebrand OS X before hitting version 11 How would you pronounce that ? " "Oh-essexy " ?
  • I personally think that patents should be a 'use it or loose it' kind of system, like trademarks; as I understand it, if you fail to defend a trademark, you loose the right to it. I'd like to see a similar ruling that if you fail to bring a product …
  • Give me a display you can actually read in sunlight and I"ll be happy....
  • The could be double-check questions, so ensuure the validity of the answers. If either of these boxes have been checked, then clearly the respondant doesn't know what the heck they are talking about because they are non-existent apps.
  • My predictions are that no matter what the eventual spec, somone here will take exception to something. That will then get Blown Out Of All Proportion, and repeated on other sites like Macrumors.com. Someone else will cry "wait for revision 2.0". So…
  • Or, you could read 'PC' as most Mac users read 'PC' - a non-Apple computer. So, the question then becomes, "out of those households planning to buy a non-Apple computer, what %age are planning to buy a Windows system ?" (as apposed to Linux, presuma…
  • Why is it that with cameras, light == cheap, yet with laptops, light == expensive ?? I mostly use my 300D for landscape photography, and that usually means carrying the damned thing to the top of a mountain. Let me tell you, it's quite heavy enou…
  • that thing's thinner than just the screen of any mac laptop - and where the heck does the optical drive, battery, motherboard, etc fit ?? Horsesh¡t !
  • Quote: Originally posted by Nius Hi there, I recently installed a wireless router in my home. However, it seems that I am now no longer able to webcam with any Windows machine through AOL. Is there anything obviously wrong that I am doing? …
  • Office on Windows is approaching DOS days in terms of it's usability. I'm serious - try entering a table of contents entry for instance: you see markup tags in your document. WTF ? I just produced a doc for work, and found it much easier and quic…
  • I don't understand the question - ALL folders are 'password protected' on Mac OS X, in that they all have individual permissions. If you're trying to prevent another user from accessing a certain folder in your home folder, use Command-I and rem…
  • Quote: Originally posted by aegisdesign Wow. That would be impressive if Rosetta will benchmark across the board like that. From my reckoning, it means the 1.83Ghz iMac was faster running Photoshop through Rosetta than on the previous G5 natively…
  • Quote: Originally posted by opuscroakus From ATI's website on the X1600 (both standard and mobility, don't know which one the iMac has.) This info is for the pc version though, they don't have any info yet for a "Mac" X1600 High performance p…
  • Quote: Originally posted by jimhill And the iSight onslaught continues... As I feared when the iMac was revamped last fall, the built-in iSight was a portent of an overall product line revision. And as I feared, our security personnel at work…
  • I can't believe that an engineer working at or for a company was allowed (by that company) to patent technology he apparently helped develop whilst employed there. If that's the case, I've got a ton of things I"m going to patent !
  • Quote: Originally posted by Hugi Indeed. I also find it odd that they don't mention Core Data on this list, which in my opinion is one of the most important new features. I'm 99.997% certain that Core Data is there - after all Apple has b…
