  • Man, I thought I was goin' all out buying the 1st gen...but then no one had anything like that. iPods are slowly becoming as numerous as cellphones, because they are that awesome. I'm going to pick one up, but only as a present to myself for good…
  • Hands down, bluetooth headphones are crap. They have their own digital compression scheme, and playing compressed music over them is an 'uphill battle.' Especially on phones, in a social setting, it really looks like people are talking to themsel…
  • My new commitment to myself : if I do exceptionally well in school, HAVE TO BUY THE 60GB VID-POD. Hands down. YeA. It has more "battery power" for video playback, and more space. In my eyes: it's worth it. Edu: 369 $ The iPod I have now, the 1st …
  • Most definitely, there needs to be a separate sleeping function that turns wifi off/on. Also a low-power recieve mode could be utilized to know of Wi-Fi networks. Yes, then that would mean it would double as a wifi sensor. Keep in mind that the grea…
  • Would you seriously utilize the Wi-Fi? ftp? Airport/802.11n @ 600mbps (as rumored) would get nice transfer rates, and better-than-bluetooth setup/config. I wonder if you can hook a mouse up to one of these-running linux?
  • I was wondering if VPN would do it. Mulling it over, I'm going to see if I can install Mac OS X server, and create a VPN bridge so that I can have solely high-speed internet while on our slow Campus connection. YES.
  • Why is apple eliminating the very architecture they created? It's potential is faster than USB 2.0 right now, aka FW800. It's just dumb that they changed the port going from FW400 to 800. They should have re-architected a way to utilize the same phy…
  • Well, I for one am FOR the idea of a laptop with built-in WACOM tablet support that over-lays the screen. In my mind, the average PC-user is a business oriented consumer with a spreadsheet open. I really don't think that innovation in this sense is …
  • MPEG-4 would greatly have to take off. Their own version of it isn't helping anyone out too greatly, except quicktime users. Though, this version of MPEG-4 seems to be the most popular, and is playable in WMPlayer...so maybe that could be a stand…
  • I checked about 8:30 AM yesterday morning and they were already up ! I wonder how far off I was. Maccentral hadn't said anything yet. Slashdot was later. -'loo.
  • Man the eMac sports something equivalent (minus AGP) to the original Radeon that I put in my B/W G3/350 a while back. This is obviously a better version, but STILL. MacJedai, couldn't you consider Apple's Pro line their Workstation-class? I just …
  • Quote: Originally posted by The Placid Casual the only saving grace is liquid cooling on the 2.5... WHOA ! Dual's acrossed the board. I'll take that woot and give it a WOOT-TANG ! Pretty close though on the pictures, they are just more lik…
  • Hey, on another note: there is a forum upholding this discussion. As my friend Paul has said, can be found: http://forums.appleinsider.com/showt...ghlight=PearPC I'll be there ! -'loo.

  • Quote: Originally posted by onlooker We all already know about this. It doesn't run for sh*t. Nothing moves, and it's hardly as fast as a G3. It's more like at MMX speeds. If that. Sweet, so pretty bad. I still can't wait to test it out. Mayb…
  • Quote: Originally posted by onlooker Successful of what? We all use Mac's. NOT EVERYONE HERE USES MACS. But, still if you have a PC lying around, you now have a slow, OS X box. Many people stop by around this time to see what's potentially…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha If it isn't really Future Hardware, then why does it belong in here? True, True. I already got it in Software, so send a link and lock if need be. But stretching it fits both.
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha Yes, it does. With a speed hit measured in *orders of magnitude*... It's a cute toy, but all it is right now. Frankly, it makes Virtual PC look like a speed demon. I'll bet, they said in some cases…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Res Trust them? For the most part, the current designs suck, so I really don't have any faith in the Apple design team. The white enclosures of the eMac/iMac/iBook looks like something out of an early 80s SciFi fli…
  • First of all, when I read AC powered portable device, that threw up a flag. If there was only an AC input, then let's think of the many places you would mostly be able to plug in this thing: inside. Or you could get long extension cords. Se…
