  • [quote]Originally posted by dillyo1001: what else would they put in there? the 1U's have an amazing feature set for that size server. quad cpu's and more storage? Yes please. Sure, quad CPUs are a pipe dream for now, but more storage would …
  • I say nothing new at Seybold, faster PowerBooks at Tokyo. Alex
  • I ordered mine Monday afternoon, the Cinema Display and assorted accessories shipped that night, and the G4 itself just shipped a few hours ago. Alex
  • [quote]Originally posted by concentricity: yes, and congrats. i just hope apple is paying to bundle a full version, not the 15 day free trial? My guess is that it's the trial version, and no money is changing hands over it. (But I'm sure Andrew…
  • You know, I wish people would stop posting definitive-sounding topic subjects like "New LCD monitors on the way!" unless they actually have (or at least purport to have) SOLID INFORMATION. It makes the topic list into a big jumble of misleading l…
  • [quote]Originally posted by qazII: The info supposedly on the Learn and Earn site said that Snapz Pro X would be shipping with every new PowerMac. That would be a logical thing to bundle (though I would think that Apple would just write an equivan…
  • [quote]Originally posted by amidala: He wants to know if you buy Apple because its "Apple" Oh, right. No, I don't. I like their OS. If OS X ran on Intel/AMD with access to all the same apps, I'd switch. (And switch back, too, if the PPCs e…
  • [quote]Originally posted by spooky: Could run Mac software out of the box under emulation 4 times faster than any apple offering "Could run Mac software out of the box" implies OS X software as well. Office v.X springs immediately to mind as s…
  • The promotion is valid only for the specfic model numbers of the current towers, so it doesn't really matter when it ends. It's to clear out inventory of the old models both before and after the new ones are introduced. Alex
  • [quote]Originally posted by bandalay: or are we all insomniacs with no lives? Well, I personally am a lifeless insomniac who's serious about buying a new PowerMac. Alex
  • Don't count on it. I ordered an iPod a week ago, when the ship time was also 10 days. It shipped (from Taiwan) 3 days later (it's a "time to ship" estimate, not a "time to delivery" estimate), and arrived 5 days after ordering. Alex
  • [quote]Originally posted by qazII: Now about the battery....When the Tibook came out, I remember reading about how it used Lithium Polymer technology. I remember reading the same thing about the iPod. In other words, unless I am mistaken, they alre…
  • I'm a bit skeptical of that 1.8 GHz G4 in the Titanium. Did anyone ever say that the G4 would scale to 1.8? I've heard the 1.6 Apollo's, but that's about it. Besides, I need a new computer tomorrow. Alex
  • [quote]Originally posted by spotbug: Don't forget: it's 4D. The wires are probably in a different, 3D cross section. Or something. Sneaky bastards.
  • [quote]Originally posted by M5884: Well it told me 7 days just a few days ago. Then after the store was down last night I noticed this change. I think the shipping time is very different depending on where you live. ( kinda obvious) Here in Flo…
  • Yeah, it's been at 10 days for a while. For what it's worth, I ordered an iPod last Sunday that also had a ship time of 10 days, and it shipped on Wednesday, only 3 days later. Anyone actually ordered a PowerMac from the Apple Store lately? (I…
  • Hmm. I think this is the first time I've seen word that the prices will be a bit lower ($3000 for the dualie instead of $3500), which might make it a bit easier to swallow. But I'm still not too keen on no DDR. The "Three USB ports" jumps out …
  • [quote]Originally posted by KidRed: No it belongs in General Discussion because the subject i about the Apple Store, not and future hardware. If the Apple Store updates with new towers, then this topic goes from General Discussion to Curren…
  • connect.apple.com, the developer member site, is down too: "The doors to connect.apple.com will be open shortly. We apologize for the interruption." Alex
