  • Quote: Originally posted by Yevgeny I'd be greatly surprised to see Apple release G5 PBs this January. I think that Apple probably wanted to do so before IBM had problems with the 970, but I think that 970 heat and yeild issues are going to prev…
  • Quote: Originally posted by adamrao The Radeon 9200 in the iBook makes me think we might not see a Powerbook update before the end of the year. The GeForce 5200 in the 12" Powerbook may be there to be more appealing the the "pro" who needs 64 MB …
  • Looked again. This is soooooo hacked. Why leave the specs and prices there? Why be so sure about shipping dates when the new imac hasn't been announced/launched. Someone's hurtin' Quote: Originally posted by 3.1416 The wor…
  • I buy the hacking argument - doesn't seem right. Why the apologies? Quote: Originally posted by Gabid Now that is both strange and cool. For anyone who doesn't want to check the link themselves, what it says is that they are no longer ta…
  • Quote: Originally posted by ShawnJ My girlfriend likes the pink one, of course. I think that color will have mass-appeal. I got the sense that silver was the last to run out over the weekend, followed closely by pink. First to go were …
  • Quote: Originally posted by spankalee I don't think this article has any real inside information, it's just speculation. So maybe I'll speculate a bit. I think Steve Jobs wants to make a PDA/Phone. He wants to because he has a vision for how t…
  • Well, we'll have to see. My point was never that the whole thing is bad - it's more of a cost-benefit analysis. Does Apple gain enough to compensate for what it loses in brand dilution, profits, etc. But to take up another of your points - I su…
  • 1. Point taken, but in the end, think of the core markets. . . . USA, Europe, Japan. What I fear we are seeing is a real limit on the ability to expand Apple sales, that HP will cannibalise Apple etc. 2. How did you know about my Calvins? Any…
  • I've been reading all the above comments with decidedly mixed feelings. My conclusion is that this is partly good and partly bad for Apple. Good because iTunes gets installed on new computers, and Apple DRM gets a boost. Bad for the followi…
  • Cosmo Why have iPod sales been increasing? Not because Joe goes to Google and types in MP3 players. He buys because his friends start lusting after it, and so he starts lusting after it. People buy design, even in Kansas (Gratuitous big ci…

  • Quote: Originally posted by MacUsers iPod Mini is here... and in colors OK Design master stroke, I reckon. It looks gorgeous, colors are cool (no stripes), and it's tiny. And how on earth do they make it fit 1000 songs and be able to pay…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Smircle And you know this because...? Imho the idea is bogus: - You don't need 802.11g for music. 802.11b would be plenty. - How do you configure a speaker system on a encrypted network? You'd need to go to ad-…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Clayton Magnet Plug the modem into the base station, run the setup assistant, and you're done. That's what the base station is intended for - no other computer needed. Thanks for your response. I take it you h…
  • Quote: Originally posted by gar it's magic and called psychology. a speedbump without actually offering a realistic speedbump. apple makes buyers wow about the fact the ibook also reached the 1Ghz line. a speedbump of 100Mhz over last springs 90…
  • I too am wondering why anyone would get a 1Ghz for $200 more than a 933Mhz????? As was correctly pointed out earlier, a 40Gig to 60Gig HDD update only costs $50 - so does 67Mhz really make you want to dig deep with another $150?
  • Quote: Originally posted by iEatMyHomeWork I have been using Windows since Windows 95., and been developing on it...until Java took over. I have tried every single well-known media player since then. Not a single one of them comes even closer…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Quarem I was hoping that it would have been released for Canada today, as well. Oh well, I guess we have some more waiting to do. I just really wish they would hurry up, or at least give us some info about when they e…
  • Quote: Originally posted by gorebug Go into a bookstore. Look at the audiobook section. Notice that they are a lot more money than the paperback version. Understand that it is cheaper to press a couple cds that print a book. Learn tha…
  • Make it DIET pepsi people. If we're going to be drinking gallons of the stuff, no sugar. Just weird chemicals, in increasingly hallucinogenic concentrations.
