But they'll all have NFC terminals in a year anyway, since the EMV liability shift specifically says transactions must be cleared on a terminal that supports NFC EMV. I don't think tokenized payments require the merchant to "support" anything at al…

Can anybody figure out the new part numbers? Apple's site doesn't seem to show them. Trying to make sure I order the right one.

Damn, waited for ~9 months for Arrandale in the 13". Oh well, it's about the right time for me to buy, and I was mostly interested in waiting until the latest were out. The specific chip isn't that important. Love the bumped battery life in the…

If you don't want a 13" MBP, don't buy one. Why bother suggesting that it shouldn't be a Pro model, other than some misplaced elitism? Personally, I'll take the cheaper, smaller, lighter 13" MBP. Sorry if you're offended that I'm not "Pro" enou…

Not sure why this hasn't been on Appleinsider... From Engadget; MBP, MBA, MP pricing potentially leaked by Apple Australia/New Zealand. http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/17/n...y-leaked-by-a/

I so want this on the 13.3" MBP refresh. Last few hotels I've been in have had LCD TVs with HDMI input. Would be great for travel.

Why is *anyone* bitching about price? The iPad starts at *half* the price the world was estimating. Just skip the 16GB, buy the 32GB for $599, and be done. 3G isn't worth the $130 premium; in fact I specifically said I would NOT buy an iPad i…

I need a casual computer for websurfing on the couch while watching TV. I sold my iBook years ago. I truck my Thinkpad back and forth from work to home, but Windows makes for a pretty crappy websurfing + AIM + etc experience. I keep toying with…

It's worth noting that flash is particularly bad on OS X. I got tired of hearing the fans on my Mac Pro ramp up when I had a lot of browser windows open, so I installed Click2Flash. I've since installed it on my Power Mac 2x2.0 at work, which seri…

Yup, I'm waiting for Arrandale too. I was expecting them at the iPad launch since Apple won't be at MWSF this year. Last Apple laptop I owned was my 600mhz G3 iBook I bought in '02. Been waiting for Arrandale for 6-8 months. No particular hu…

Quite frankly, this blows my mind. I don't know anyone who owns one. Everyone I know uses cheapo Linksys and Netgear routers for their Macs, including myself. I once had an Airport Base Station (snow, not graphite, so the second model they made) …

I'm sure that $4.50 to ship from the uk to boulder, co isn't in any way subsidized by your taxes, huh? I love how the uk'ers here are utterly ignoring the fact that people can get free phones here in the states, too, yet some of us still elect to…

.. but you were still wrong, which you didn't admit. Apple sold iPhone faster than forecast, at a time when many thought the forecast was too aggressive. This doesn't mean they'll sell 10M in 2008, but it certainly makes that number look possible.…

Cool. I just sent a long and well-thought out email to the NBC address posted in the other thread (and received an email autoreply, so the address is legit) about how $1.99 is the price point where people will buy without even thinking about price …
