  • I think there is a direct correlation between the glossiness of the new macbooks(pros) and Jony Ive's head. Tell me I'm wrong! I dare you.

  • These leaks regarding regarding the next macbooks & mb pros seem to be turning up more and more frequently. Makes me wonder if the timeframe aspect of this story isn't the least accurate part of it (hopefully). Seems plausible that there may sti…

  • Well if they do introduce a microwave then that means that the only room they haven't addressed is the bathroom. However, i'm guessing you're a little closer to the mark on the ipod "transition" as opposed to an entirely new product line.

  • What are the odds we see something along these lines this summer? http://www.macnn.com/blogs/?p=480 Personally, a macbook pro with this kind of docking station/display would be perfect for me.

  • The PDA as it stands now is primarly a business tool. Thats not to say that that is how it is always used. Although it is also purchased by techno fetish/gadget crowd, its real purpose and usefullness is business related. On a professional leve…
    in What a Mac Specialist told me today... Comment by hook June 2004
  • It seems like a natural progression of the ipod to include a fully functional pda. It already includes a calendar that syncs with ical. Plus with addition of "home" on your ipod this seems even more likely. 60GB is a good starting point for this …
