  • I wish it was that easy! I can see an update soon. Bluetooth would be great to integrate.. but I've heard bluetooth might be coming to airport 2 in 2003... the powerbook is amazing right now. All that's needed is a spec update, bluetooth and s…
    in New iBooks/PowerBooks soon? Comment by jasonpp July 2002
  • Actually it's 10 meters.. A meter is a little more than 3 feet. it's comprised of 100 centimeters which in turn measure 10 millimeters each. I know it's tough to grasp completely.. but stick with it and soon you'll be using.. metric ti…

  • A 17" wide screen iMac could replace the TV my wife and I have in our bedroom. It's just a 27" Vega now, and all we do is watch DVD's and the news.. hmmm Where's that penny jar..
    in 17" iMacs? 17" iMacs! Speculate away! Comment by jasonpp July 2002
  • 17" should be the same as the desktop model, so 1280x1024 this is a huge draw for me. A truly usefull prosumer machine, and a great way to enter the Apple world. I think as far as Apple is concerned, it should be super easy to retrofit th…

  • Just because you can stick a few thousand volts into a pickle to get a home made light bulb, doesn't mean you can cover your roof with Polski Orgorki and say goodbye to brownouts.. OR DOES IT? I wonder if the cool chips could be used to ge…

  • Very neat. I found this a while back, paper batteries!
    in Battery Technology Comment by jasonpp July 2002
  • There has been extensive work on hydrogen sponges. These hold lots of hydrogen gas within a solid without the high pressure of tanks. This was before 20cm carbon nanotubes, which are the perfect size for pressurized laptop hydrogen tanks, and ha…

  • Bundle Office lower prices better resolution screens
    in What makes a Switcher switch? Comment by jasonpp June 2002
  • iMacs arn't selling. I think it's the display that's causing it. I certanly wouldn't buy a 1024x768 non upgradable computer for that price. If they just seperated the display and offered 15" and 17" bundles... Then I'd pay attention. Oth…
    in Updated LCD iMac? Comment by jasonpp June 2002
  • I hope not. I think adding touchscreens to all their computers would be a better idea, to see how people react and if they add value in real life. I for one would love to have a touchscreen for flash animation, but I can't see the average Exc…
    in Microsoft Tablets: Will Apple have one, too? Comment by jasonpp June 2002
  • I think you may see one of two things: 1. Evolution. Higher resolution screen, more memmry, faster graphics, longer battery life and a faster processor, for around the same $$ (number value only) 2. Revolution. Radically different form …
    in Where is the powerbook sept. 2003? Comment by jasonpp June 2002
  • I think Nvidia is not going to try to beat Intel at its game. According to a WIRED article I read recently Nvidia has recognized that the need in future computers will move away from the processor and onto the GPU. As new display technologies mat…

  • They are coming out with a new DVD format. Several in fact. China is trying to get around DVD consortium fees by building their own standard. There are also several High Def DVD standards being developed. The RIAA and the rest of those "bad peopl…

  • I think there will be a variety of codecs supported. I hope we see a colour screen and a camera as well...

    in Changes in Apple periferals coming? Comment by jasonpp May 2002
  • I knew someone was going to pull out the 640k joke.. there's always a dead-horse beater around when you need one. Good point about the file transfers.. a 400MB file would take almost 5 minutes over Airport today.. and that's only if you g…

  • How many people saturate a 11Mb connection? What are you doing to get frustrated that it's not fast enough (besides downloading movies) I would have thought 11Mb would be fast enough for the best home Internet connections. Cable and DSL max out at w…

  • MRAM is very rad. I believe that it uses newly discovered quantum properties (don't get excited, LED's are quantum machines). I find it amazing that our understanding of quantum properties has so quickly led to practical applications (makes me fe…
