  • We buy a lot of Dells where I work. Spec for spec, they are not much better than Apple, especially when you consider that anything under the 8000 series is junk-quality. They are however, great if you want the cheapest piece of junk just to run Wo…
  • I bet Apple will sell a $39 or $49 accessory that attaches like the current ipod remote control but instead contains a small scrolling LCD. That's one way to bring the starter price down.
  • Quote: Originally posted by monkeyastronaut Well, since a $249 USD 4GB iPod mini exists, then I guess a $199 2GB iPod mini ain't too far off. I think we'll see that one by April-May. EDIT: Either that, or the current 4GB will be offered at $1…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Dr_Holistic Today during Steve's Keynote address, he stated you could take the mini iPod running... I'm curious what apple will do when they have a ton of mini hard drives crashing on them! The current iPod doesn…
  • Look on the other side. No more shall the development of these iApps be subsidized by the high prices of Mac machines especially by those who keep complaining thread after thread about how useless and horrible the iApps are. Corporations who don't…
  • Almost every international company on earth does this, even companies not based in America that sell to America do this in America. My guess is tariffs.
  • This is nothing. I once had a Sony Vaio laptop. Four days *before* the expiration of my warranty, the unit stopped powering up. They refused to honor their warranty since it was so close to expiration.
  • Quote: Originally posted by CosmoNut I'll admit it's sexy, but WAAAAYYYYY overpriced! Price per gigabyte: iPod 40GB: $12.48 iPod 20GB: $19.95 iPod 15GB: $19.93 iPod mini: $62.25!!! If iPod mini were $199: $49.75/Gb If iPod mini were …
  • They should find a way to integrate this type of technology into it: http://www.zero-g.co.uk/index.cfm?articleid=805
  • Its a windows problem, wide open windows problem.

  • Damn, I subscribed one week before the promotion and got that stupid Otis instead.
  • It's really up to your area. In some areas, cable is great, in others, it's crap. Go with cable, if your download speed sucks (in my area it's 2x the speed of a modem) or if your provider is say Adelphia, then cancel and get dsl instead.
  • Quote: Originally posted by iMacfan Hi, I've just upgraded to a 12" PB, that will not boot classic natively. Now, about 18 Months ago I spent a large amount of money on VPC4 with windows 98. I just installed it, and it refuses to work even i…
  • The slow Simcity 4 performance isn't your TiBook's fault. Read this thread: http://forums.macnn.com/showthread.p...hreadid=163271 There's a quick fix somewhere in there that will make it smoke.
  • PCs come with MovieMaker 2 which is no iMovie but is still okay. DVD software will definately be an expense. Also, a firewire card. Most PCs in the price range he wants don't come with firewire. That's another $40.
