  • Sounds a bit mickey mouse to me.
  • If MS is the disease, an Apple is the cure. :cool:
  • Apple lead, others follow, I think its as simple as that. In a poll of the most influential people of the last century, Steve Jobs figured quite highly, way above Bill Gates. For example, he coins the phrase "digital hub", Bill Gates starts using it…

  • Some people just can't follow instructions, can they, me included. Ignore this thread? Not on your life!
  • [quote]Originally posted by Brad: Get in line. There were a bunch of MacNN goofballs that tracked her down and found all kinds of info about her, like that she's an avid golfer. I'd guess you'd have to battle them to get to her first. I would…

  • There is a small clue as to what they are. The one on the left has an Apple Pro mouse attached. Oh, and the wording PowerBook G4 on the boarding behind them

  • Unfortunately, the majority of the ads wouldn't even be allowed here in the UK, as advertising laws state direct comparison with competing products isn't allowed. For example, saying that her father had to spend an hour downloading Window drivers wo…
  • Why not order from the online UK Apple store? That's what I did! They're open all hours and deliver [ 09-07-2002: Message edited by: RodUK ]
  • I set up cable broadband on my mac last week. In my case I had an existing cable TV box that already had the modem in it, otherwise the cable company would have provided a stand alone modem (it seems weird calling it a modem when its a purely digita…
  • MarcUK I'm afraid your comments say more about you than Jamie. Jamie/Spooky Is the removal of AppleOutsider and Fireside Chat a serious suggestion? I was under the impression these forums were created because members want to discuss non Apple rel…
  • Having seen figures mentioned in the past regarding the number of AI members, I do wonder how many are actually active and how many have simply registered, posted once or twice and never returned. The issue of moderators posting as themselves is …

  • I think the GigaHertz gap will die a natural death with the move to 64 bit processors. When Intel and AMD have to explain to customers how their new 64 bit processors running at lower clock speeds outperform their old 32 bit processors running at hi…
