The iMac is supposed to be the everyman computer. Ideal for school, home or the office. Aside from being ok for kids, I find the loss of the pedastal as a step backwards. No longer will one be able to look the display straight on without bending …

Fwiw, I believe Apple should've gone back to the Cube concept or something simillar with a small form factor but bundled with reduced-price pro monitor. That Apple chose to slap everything (all the computing parts) behind a monitor and price it for…

Did anyone here attend the WWDC and get their free copy of early Tiger? If so, what's your feeling about the OS? Anyone know how much we have to fork over in Developer fees to get this early Tiger release? Tnx.

Marc, In general I feel like Apple is ahead with the integration of ergonomics, technology and design but sometimes I just can't understand or rationalize what Apple was thinking when they do things like announcing today's dual 2.5 PM and with no…

Given the additional liquid cooling added to the new dual 2.5GHz PM, it would appear Apple is scrambling hard to move up the GHz scale. The requirement for such additional cooling must mean these are not different chips than the 2.0GHz but most lik…

I guess, one revision G5 per year is as bad the mediocre choices for video cards. I still don't know what's stopping ATI from releasing a retail 9600 Pro for the G4. There's no new hardware to design and no new drivers required as I'm pretty sure …

Interesting points some people have brought out but let me ask everyone here why has ATI not released the retail version of Radeon 9600Pro now available only for the G5? Non-G5 Macs won't be able to use it in AGP 8X mode but big deal. The 9600 is …

"It is interesting to think that despite how much we complain about the sad state of iMac/eMac video cards, even if they were upgradable there would be nothing to upgrade to." BINGO! That's it. All those who truly believe the Mac aftermarket …

"Ok, For starters yes it is a problem, but Nvidia doesn't make video cards they only make the chips. Afaik Apple makes their Nvidia cards in house, but all Nvidia chips are both Mac, and PC capable so it's Apple who has been lagging behind when it c…
