    in is .Mac worth it Comment by gramsci July 2007

    in MacBook wait times rise as EDU season rolls in Comment by gramsci July 2006
  • I for one would welcome an Apple tablet but for very different reasons - I use a tablet at school (I teach) and it is here that it would be really useful. Instead of paying huge amounts for a pc, interactive whiteboard and a projector, you could ha…

    in Paris expo: speculation thread Comment by gramsci July 2005
  • I have to say I'm rather taken by the idea of an Apple tablet but for reasons that are more practical(!) I teach in a institution where a fair few number of staff have tablet/convertible laptops that they use in class - registration, demonstratin…

    in 20" iMac Tomorrow? Comment by gramsci November 2003
  • The news of a 20 inch imac has got me excited enough to post... Is this the 'new' imac Quanta were talking of producing? *Going into fantasy land* Wouldn't it be great if they did managed to shoehorn a G5 in there but at a lower clock spee…

    in New Apple "Rotary" Mouse! Comment by gramsci June 2003
  • A number of things come to mind regarding this 'product'. If it really is a tablet like device, how does it connect to your computer? I'm assuming that Airport would work in the home/office but what about when are too far for reception? Dial up? Via…
