  • Apple will not compete in markets it doesn't think it can make a nice profit and/or sell a lot of its hardware. (10 million iPhones expected to be sold in 2008 ) So don't expect an Apple branded television, a digital camera, an ordinary (non s…

    in So Whos holding out for NEW hardware? Comment by gar February 2007
  • It seems that the windowsworld makes everybody believe that slapping some nice components in a box makes a good computer... or adding more hardware features makes a better phone. As a Mac-user or iPod-owner you should know that by now. Most im…

    in Apple to iTunes users: hold off on that Vista upgrade Comment by gar February 2007
  • I don't have a problem with DRM the way Apple uses it. I don't care actually. I do care about the quality of the music sold via iTS because it's rather poor at 128kbps. Lossless would make me consider downloads over CDs though. (although I w…

  • 2GB in my november 2004 20" iMacG5 2GB in my november 2006 15" MacBook Pro 2,33Ghz C2D It's enough for the work I do. Both on the iMac and the MacBook Pro the HD is the bottleneck.
