  • I am amazed by all the people who, without any analysis or thought just yell: "FAKE". Let's look at this logically and constructively. A box has SIX (6), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 sides: Top, Bottom, Left, Right, Front and Back. This image ONLY displays O…

  • That's funny! I remember 3 years ago when I bought my PowerBook for University, using my discount. I did it via the Applestore on the phone as it was my first time buying a Mac and I chatted to this lady several times as we decided what to purcha…
  • I think that new MB's and (MBP's) could be announced in the June/July timeframe as Apple would want to drive up their back-to-school sales. An August launch would be slightly late in regards to that. Now, I have little knowledge of the entire Mon…
  • Following this article, I have two things to bring up: 1.) Considering that only the 8GB version is having a price reduction and not the 16GB, could this be an indication that Apple is planning to drop the 8GB version all together? Obviously, …
  • I always find it amusing how people almost always trash the findings made by researchers... funny. I think what the article was trying to convey is that if the MBA had had a lower price point, a lot more people would be buying it. Also, just b…
  • Hey, I was trying out the MBA and I thought that one mono speaker was pretty good. Obviously, NOT AS good as two (stereo) speakers, but acceptable. As mentioned earlier, only weird thing is that it is slightly to the right of the center of the ke…

  • Quote: Originally Posted by Bobo Decosta Like people in the US even can afford an iPhone these days To some extent I agree with Bobo. But I also think that 32G may have existed 6 months ago but was too expensive to incorporate. However, if 32…

  • Hey Flounder, Thanks for clearing that up for me, appreciate it! But I'm not really worried about the MBP update as I'm not in the market for a new laptop until end of June or July. But that kinda worries me, cause I'll come close to the year…
  • I'm kinda surprised by this and worried what it means for the launch of the new MacBook Pros and MacBooks. While I'm no expert on Apple launch dates, this seems sort of unlike Apple to do, usually they upgrade their iPods all at once during the a…
  • When Steve Jobs introduced the MBA at MacWorld, he was making pro-environment arguments for using aluminum... If you look at some other Apple products that used to use plastic (but are now aluminum), such as the iPod Classic and the iMac, this le…

  • I made a few posts earlier and have read most of them here as well and there I two points I would like to make. 1.) The Pro vs Con debate. I'm not very eager to get involved in this, but I can understand both sides and arguments. I'm pretty sure …
  • hey solipsism, wanted to let you know that the link doesn't go to the initial test results of the MBA, but to results from May 2006. I have seen the initial figures from MacWorld, but I want to know more details I guess. I was lucky to get my …
