And of course, the Tablet.

I suggest we call this the ThAM, and the previous TAM the TwAM.

No, the 1st rule is look to see if there are already some threads on the iPhone before starting another one. Sheesh!

Junkyard Dawg's predictions seem very likely. JYD, the splitting of the tower line DOES make sense, and the reason is Intel's CPU offerings. The low-end tower cannot be a dual-dual, because Intel does not offer, or plan to offer in the near future, …

Well, onlooker, you have a good point as to a "pro workstation". But what you are not recognizing is that the vast majority of PowerMacs are not being used as "pro workstations". They are the only desktop Macs available. (Disregard the non-expandabl…

Anders' taxonomy looks good to me. All names contain "Mac". My surmise is that the Mac Pro will move to lower price points, using Conroe-type chips rather than Xeons, and be a small minitower, leaving no space between the iMac and it, as Anders show…

The US cellular market, with its monopolism and commitment locks, is about as anti-consumer as it could possibly get. Competition has brought prices down, but it hasn't changed the amazingly arrogant attitudes of the carriers, who are nearly all own…

Pentium D chips cannot be dualled. There are some dual-core Xeon chips coming out which can be dualled, supposedly coming in late 2006, which will be very expensive. We don't know at this time if Apple intends to push the Mac Pro completely into the…

What, another iPhone thread?!

What, again?

I've got deja vu. Hasn't he been saying that on all his recent keynotes? I think he said it at WWDC and there was a thread...

You guys are nuts. The quad-capable chips Intel has coming (Woodcrest?) are not due in 2006, and even then they are Xeon chips, which means that a quad would cost $5000+. If Apple uses Xeons, they'll be in Xserves, not Mac Pros. Yes, there will b…

My guess is the iBook will only get the Core Solo, which means it is about 3 months off. But why do you say "Steve Jobs' comments the iBook will become the MacBook"? I didn't notice such comments, and don't see why the iBook name wouldn't stay, the …

The TAM is a very special machine, if you've ever seen one. It wouldn't surprise me if Apple would produce a Thirtieth Anniversary Macintosh. It would be an AIO, similar to the iMac, but with luxury features such as a teakwood bezel, special audi…
