What I'd like to see is: 1. "HD-ready"-ness to be added to the displays - HDCP on the DVI-port or HDMI. 2. more displays with full HD (1080) resolutions and larger screen sizes - lower ppi ratio.

I just read that the Apple's vice president for world-wide Mac marketing admitted that the innards of both Intel-based Macs are infact pretty much alike. Concerning the distiction between "pro" and "consumer" lines, the iMac has gone a little ste…

The IFA - international radio/television/digital home entertainment fair - is taking place right now in Berlin. One of the hot topics is home media centers and content distribution. It seems all of the shown devices either run Windows XP MCE or are …

Quote: Originally posted by webmail Apple software is natively compiled. Every Apple application in the last 5 years has an Intel version. The intel board also has PCI express ;-) Can you tell (or even show us) a little more about the innards …

I think I remeber that back at WWDC 2003 when asked in an interview after introducing the PPC970-based G5s, Steve stated that they seriously considered the Intel-platform as an option. Now, we know why. I guess that that the situation at IBM beco…

Quote: Originally posted by Jamil I think we are all scared because of the unknown. We will know more as the intel SDKs start to arrive on developers doors. Wonder if they will be resticted by NDAs to divulge any details of the OS performance…

I wonder why the transition takes until mid-2007. Wouldn't it be wise on Apple's part to equip every possible device with the best price/performance processing options as soon as they can? Maybe this has something to do with Intel's roadmap for h…

I hope this has not been discussed before in this thread, as I did not scan through all the pages: What will a switch to the Intel-platform mean in regards to: a) Mac OS X. Will it be tied to Intel-based Apple hardware, or will it able to run…

Quote: Originally posted by groverat For Apple to actually make a difference or be important in the HD field they have to get their HD product outside their hardware platform, which is so small it basically doesn't exist. I don't have exact ma…

Quote: Originally posted by Nightcrawler Ok, it doesn't have iworks included as I thought (...) Actually, it does. It is just a 30 day trail. I wonder if they offer a discounted upgrade option.

I thought, Keynote 2 had proper presnter tools (output to second screen, presenter notes etc.). The thing I don't understand is that they chose to write Pages from scratch. They should have bought and enhanced a programm called Ragtime. It bas…

I am still on Jaguar, and there is one thing that I like about XP that I could not find in OS X yet: When you send your machine into stand-by/sleep-mode, it locks down the current user's session so you can only resume work when entering your pass…
