Why the heck does Apple want to kill .Mac anyway? That's a wonderful brand and it makes people think of Macs every time they email someone with such an address or look at a web page. Whereas "MobileMe" doesn't make you think of Macs at all. Ho…

I hope they fix the *PRICE* on the Time Capsule. While $499 was reasonable for a 1TB NAS when they first came out, the prices on 1TB drives has dropped so significantly that now the 1TB (and 512GB too) Time Capsules are a colossal rip off.

My worry is if Psystar wins, Apple will do EVERYTHING they can to lock down OS X. Obfusciate it, encrypt it, make running it on anything other than Macs completely impossible without hours of difficult hacking. Right now, Apple looks the other wa…

I doubt it will run Mac OS X, so how will it in any way compete with the Air? Mac OS X is the primary reason to own a Mac. Dell cannot compete with that. Nor can anyone else.

Retailer margins are very low on Macs, so you won't see price cuts more than this on new product. Sorry folks. However, you should take what you can get since price cuts on Apple products aren't common to begin with.

How about a fix for a major hardware problem: The glass display not having an AR coating? The thing is like a mirror! I have a DEC VT220 terminal from 1984 and even it has an AR coating on the screen so it reflects hardly any light at all. It'…

I think laptop lid hinges need to be relatively stiff, simply because they tend to loosen with time, and if it's just barely tight enough new, it'll be a lot sooner before it stops staying in place, even in the normal flat-on-a-table position.

I wonder if this is the issue I had with my TiBook 867MHz DVI. When I added a second DIMM, sleep mode became slightly less reliable. There would be subtle memory corruption upon waking from sleep, and the system would often crash shortly after. T…

I have been unable to reproduct the Adobe file corruption issue. I am testing on my NFS fileserver, opening and saving large PSD files. Perhaps this is only hitting certain obscure combinations of hardware and software. So far 10.5.3 has been roc…

As for the single vendor source problem... I suspect Apple would have no qualms about switching to AMD if Intel tried to screw them. So they're not entirely tied to one vendor for microprocessors and chipsets.

You know what I don't get? He is STEVE JOBS! How the heck does he have such a drab paint job on his jet? He should at least have some cool tail art, something inspiring, or at the very least an Apple logo! It just boggles my mind that Jobs has…

The fact that people are using the browser shows that they installed it and LIKED it more than MSIE. I'm not sure why providing users with the option to try Safari was such a bad thing. It wasted what, maybe 0.5 seconds of their time as they deci…

Now if only they'd wake up and make the majority of the catalog DRM-free. I've been buying from Amazon MP3 lately simply because of the lack of DRM. iTunes Plus selection utterly pales in comparison to Amazon MP3. WAKE UP, Apple! when the choi…

Yes, Mac prices are comparable to PC prices for similar machines, BUT... - There are no budget laptops in the Apple line. The starting Macbook is at around a grand. You can get PC laptops for around $400. Sure, the specs aren't very good, but mos…

Are you sure 10.5 is at fault? Many times wireless networks have problems because of interference caused by things like microwave ovens, 2.4GHz cordless phones, other nearby wireless networks, electrical interference, and so on. I suggest looking…

Sigh... is this is the way things are going? Companies start coming up with new ways of doing something you already do, so you sue them instead of, I don't know.... COMING UP WITH YOUR OWN SOLUTION AND COMPETING WITH THEM! Why doesn't Seagate …

As for time based sorting: ls -ltr Hello UNIX, 1980. As for this streams thing... What's funny is I remember this vividly. There was a presentation about it on some TV show (The computer chronicles?) and it seemed really neat at the time. …
