Matsu, your wonderful posts about frames and aspect ratios are some of the most beautiful examples of rationalization I've ever seen. Gotta hand it to you, champ.

And Intel's coming chips are still playing catch-up with AMD's. Woodcrest is intended to compete with Opterons that have already been out for a year or more.

Come now, for a desktop AMD's chips blow the doors off the Core Duo. Core Duo's the best laptop chip these days, but don't get carried away. As for Photoshop, the folks who spent big bucks on the CS because of being forced into the Mac OS X migra…

Go look at today's Joy of Tech! It's right along these lines.

I like the idea of moving the chin around back. Make the bottom part thicker. Nobody will see it.

Quote: Originally posted by Voch I'm skeptical about any non-Pro MacBook having a dedicated GPU since the Mac mini announcement. I agree. The upgrade MacBook will have integrated graphics, same RAM, Core Duo, maybe a bigger HD, and cost $200…

I was one of those who told you guys that Apple was buying Intel's whole line of goods. You should not be surprised. Integrated graphics are going to be in most of Apple's line-up. Apple's hardware is going to be indistinguishable from Dell's. Got i…

That looks like the box that the iPods come in. (edit) OK, read the article, I call fake.

Tablets and minis are "fun"? You guys need to get out more. How about a joint announcement with Blizzard: Starcraft2 - and World of Starcraft! Now you're talking fun!

Well, based on elwood's perspective, maybe it's those games for the iPod we heard about briefly last year.

Well, it depends on whether you feel the third quarter of this year is "soon".

Clever idea tho, if they did it. They could make a tablet that looks like an iMac and has a little stand so you could plug in a keyboard and mouse. It could have a 10" diagonal size. I can picture it...

That's pretty good. Like to see your mockup on the media center. Figure it being wider and incorporating a Blu-Ray drive (maybe optional). Big 3.5" 7200RPM HD, too, none of this laptop-drive crap. MacPro would be a 'conroe' CPU, dual-core at a…

We've discussed this to death. We usually compromise on a wireless bluetooth keyboard and mouse for when you're sitting at a desk. Tablets are inevitable in the long run - in, say, 20 years, all computers will either be tablets or servers. It's t…

Spinning off iTunes makes sense. It is a service business rather than a product business. Apple has deliberately built iTunes as a separate brand, with only weak association to Apple. Once this is done, Apple will have to start licensing FairPlay to…

As far as Apple is concerned, you can pretty much forget AMD processors. Intel is the Mafia of technology companies, they're even worse than Microsoft. Once you partner with Intel, you don't make deals with their competitors. Only a few big companie…
