    in How will Steve handle the lack of 3Ghz? Comment by hawkeye_a June 2004
  • WWDC 2004 will bring: -upgraded g5s (it's almost been a year already....it's time for an upgrade...this isnt a 'maybe' situation) -updated Apple displays to match the Powermacs -upgraded iPods..... the video out option would be absolutely amazing…

    in Cool idea for the 40GB iPod ??? Comment by hawkeye_a January 2004
