  • [quote]Originally posted by brewsky: Its a complete fake. If you watch the video at normal speed but in full screen mode, you can see the pda moves slightly as it is written on, but the text does not move with the pda. Totally FAKE. FAKE FAKE F…
    in iWalk is fake. Comment by alexander January 2002
  • I've seen a mockup that looks very similar to the "phone" on the left, but not the one on the upper-right. However, I suspect that the picture is more of a "what if" concept drawing, as I would be VERY shocked if Apple came out with something wit…
    in www.picsel.com Apple PDA WTH is that? Comment by alexander January 2002
  • I've been thinking "wearable" for some time now. That's something that I haven't seen here. But I agree that the "rumor sites" reference really only refers to LCD iMacs, G5s, and possibly another simple iDevice or two. A tablet is kind of bord…

    in Apple Hypes MWSF 2002 Comment by alexander January 2002
  • Geez, we're all staying awake so that we can see a silly little *teaser* message on a computer maker's website? Could we *get* any more pathetic? At least it gives me something to do. Alex

  • [quote]Originally posted by Anders: The Cube would mean one more wire (from cube to monitor). In return you get USB in front of you on the screen. Ok, let's say it's a "modified" cube that doesn't have the current Cube's shortcomings in the …
    in That's it...I'm OFFICIALLY on record: new iMac will be two-piece unit Comment by alexander December 2001
  • The iMac has to be all-in-one. Sure, some of you would like a cheap Cube, but I used my first Cube this past week, and let me tell you -- it is NOT user-friendly. Plugging cables in the bottom is one of the stupidest things Apple's ever done, the…
    in That's it...I'm OFFICIALLY on record: new iMac will be two-piece unit Comment by alexander December 2001
  • [quote]Originally posted by X704: Assuming that the iMac is a 15" LCD, it'd probably have a native res of 1024x768. This is significantly higher then HDTV so I guess it'd take significantly more bandwith to send. HDTV is 1280x720 or 1920x1080, …
    in What if *this* is Apple's "revolutionary" new product? Comment by alexander December 2001
  • [quote]Originally posted by DaveGee: If 802.11 can do HDTV then it can do computer video. I don't disagree with the conclusion, but the argument is fallacious -- HDTV is an MPEG-compressed datastream, usually between 15 and 20 Megabits/sec. The …
    in What if *this* is Apple's "revolutionary" new product? Comment by alexander December 2001
  • Have: Sawtooth G4/450 (single), PBG4/667 (DVD-ROM) Want: Top-of-the-line MWSF tower, preferably with 2GHz+ total. I'm expecting dual 1GHz+ G4s, but G5s would be even nicer, provided there are dualies available. Alex
    in What do you have and what do you want? Comment by alexander December 2001
  • Why do so many people always just say "go away" to those who purport to have inside info? It's absurd -- that's what these boards are here for: to amuse us until the next Expo. I don't know if Mastergateing (a reference to designing chips?) is r…
    in All new Pro Keyboard and Mouse at MacWorld SF'02. Comment by alexander December 2001
  • I agree about the CPU, but the display is the best-looking I've ever seen, real or imaginary. I want one. Alex

  • [quote]Originally posted by Matsu: I have a feeling that most video cards run the 1280x1024 resolution as a 4:3 and scale to adjust the appropriate dimensions. My 17" CRT is 4:3 yet I run it at 1280x1024 and everything looks correct. The graphics…

  • [quote]Originally posted by DaveGee: Well just look back at the INTRO of the 22" Apple Cinema Display. Before Apples intro (at Seybold?) the SGI was selling a 21" widescreen for TWICE what Apple introed the 22" at. Boy I'll bet SGI and it's re…

    in New keyboard and mouse at MacWorld? Comment by alexander December 2001
  • I would love to see a new keyboard, but I doubt it's gonna happen. I couldn't care less about the mouse, since it'd have to have two buttons and a scroll wheel (ok, technically three buttons) before I'd even consider using it, and I really don't see…
    in New keyboard and mouse at MacWorld? Comment by alexander December 2001
  • Yes, wireless and mobile ARE the future, but that does NOT mean cell phones, or even cell-phone-form-factor devices. It means a widespread, fast, and inexpensive wireless data network, and portable (up to laptop-size) devices that can use it. Sure, …

    in Who's gonna buy an iMac LCD or G5? Show of hands please Comment by alexander December 2001
