If it doesn't come on DVD, I'm not interested. I've learned not to depend on Apple. They leave bugs unfixed and customers in the lurch as a matter of course. The app store's artificial dependence and limit to Snow Leopard is just one more example…

...favorably to the Roku XDS. I own both, and the Roku has the most content (and is adding content the fastest), the best "make a channel" kit (and it's open source), and it has by *far* the best hardware, leaving the AppleTV in the dust. Even beyon…

We just ordered a Roku XDS to replace our new AppleTV, which has so many problems - starting with the inability to work with anything but HDMI+720p... it can't even step down, and they botched the HDMI/DVI compatibility. It's *really* bad at finding…

1) what VERSION of OS X does this require? "OS X" is not very informative. Amazon doesn't seem to know either. 2) Where is Access? Is it coming at all? I was all excited to see this, but then... no Access... wtf? iLife '11 is utterly useless t…

I've a huge music collection, including all the old Beatles music, but I've not even put the Beatles stuff into iTunes. It's old; dated; and musically speaking, not very sophisticated. The Beatles day has long passed, and honestly, I think their cat…

I agree that $499 was (just barely) in the range to encourage switchers. Bottom feeder prices for PCs are considerably below that. Yes, the mini offers much more -- but people's pocketbooks don't magically get deeper because there are more features.…

...I'm hopeful with regards to where the price will land for the new machines. Most people that I talk to about moving to Mac lose interest when they hear how much a Mini costs. At $600, they're far above the entry price for a (lousy) PC, and whi…

The news about the light sensor... bad news. That means it wasn't ready for a camera, perhaps not shipping now because of production or supply problems, but instead that the design was actually so flawed as to not include one at all. Impossible to u…

Frankly, I'm not interested in porn. I prefer my women clothed -- the mystery is more interesting to me than having the details handed over. Nor does crudeness for the sake of crudeness, or content intended to shock, amuse me in the least. I prefer …

AT&T doesn't serve my area. So no matter how good a partner Apple thinks AT&T is, until they go with Verizon, they won't be selling my family iPhones. I know it's only five phones, but we're not the only people in Montana, either. From my…

This thing is supposed to be a grand, right? So build costs will run around $500 or less. Cameras are ultra cheap to do, adding no significant cost. Heck, I can buy one in a case for $10; mounted in a tablet where the case is there already... even c…

Apple should have been paying a lot more attention to the "pro" apps. I own both Logic Pro 9 and Aperture 2.whatever, and Apple makes me feel like a 2nd class citizen with both of them. Aperture's long-term bugs and shortcomings - empty, useless …

3G is a consumer unfriendly technology, always billed and not available in many locations. If the tablet doesn't have wifi, it's a non-starter for my family. There's no 3G here. There's no AT&T here, either... so hopefully they won't do anoth…

Cables? CABLES? The future is wireless. Get the damned cables off my desk. All of them. I don't want to see anything more than power cords, and I'm not all that happy with them, either. Optical cables are like optical LP pickup heads. Great id…
