  • This squares with what I've heard about the performance of the boxes, so I wouldn't waste my time being skeptical about it.
  • The grapevine says no, although the grapevine speaks to me in vague ways.
  • Quote: Originally posted by yossele check out this picture from the Apple lab. http://www.ipodfrance.com/ipodfrance...cellphone.jpeg Errr.. that looks like someone took the screen from a 12" ibook or a powerbook and stuck it on a cheap plast…
  • Perhaps something like... http://www.splashpower.com/
  • Quote: Originally posted by oldmacfan I wish someone would do maps right. Mapquest has sucked since AOL bought them out. Not to go offtopic, but how so? Its faster, and the interface is cleaner than it used to be.
  • Quote: Originally posted by sCreeD Um, no. There is just no way a person could use it with one hand in landscape mode (the iPod's design is a success for a reason). Too cumbersome. Besides, what digital camera takes 16:9 aspect pictures? Scree…
  • Why not take a page from cellphone designers? Leave the outside of the current iPod as is, save for adopting the miniPod's wheel with integrated buttons. The screen should be left as is. For all intents and purposes, this maintains the useability…
  • Not only that, but the PowerPC in the Gamecube has a 162mhz FSB.
  • No, they said gigaherts, not gigabits or gigabytes or anything like that. Optimistic guess... 1.57Ghz, 333mhz DDR.
  • I seriously doubt it, you can see the latch on the side for opening the case where it's always been.
  • That speaker is annoying me. It's like a 3rd eye or something. Maybe its not a speaker at all. Maybe thats where the RDF emanates from. Never thought of that, did you?
  • Anyone see anything that could resemble a mini-dsp on the mobo? BTW, I'm beginning to think that this was a sanctioned Apple leak, intentionally made to look as if its not one. Comes right after a weak MWNY, everyone is pissy, etc. The gu…
  • Info posted on macrumors.com, that apparently comes from the author of the PDF. [quote] the heatsink is a very large aluminum straight finned squared design. about 6" x 7" x 6" approx and weighs about 7 lbs; it is attatched to the MLB by 3 screw…
  • [quote]The heat sink/cooling system does not weigh 7 lbs The is almost as much as a gallon of water or milk; 3.5 liters for those the metric system. Not a chance in hell it would weight that much. Now, admittedly I have no idea what I'm doing,…
  • It's ugly. The proportions weren't adjusted appropriately, and the keyboard treatment is ghetto. It works on the powerbook, but sucks on the ibook. I havent met a single person (other than you, I suppose) who thinks the 14.1" ibook looks good. …
  • [quote]Hmm.. when r these bumps in performance for desktops supposed to happen? July.
  • I totally disagree. These latest bumps were obviously just to tide us over, and to keep people from spazzing over laptops in July at MWNY. After the new kickass desktops are announced (probably including a bump in the iMac), I think a couple of mo…
