  • I'm exaggerating about the 2008. I am in the camp that says "they could come out any day now, latest sumsmer." We all know heat is a very important issue, but the 90nanometer g5 chips have reasonable power consumption, as in the same as the c…
  • I'm a switcher, who looked at Apple notebooks for a while. And I really love OS X, but I am not really going to pay $1800 for a powermac.....or I would never settle for an emac. I bought an ibook. I really don't get why all of the Apple desktops …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Splinemodel Yes and no. The FSB of the latest Pentium 4's is 200Mhz. A lot of laptops still use the 133Mhz IIRC. The fact that it's "Quad pumped" doesn't mean a whole lot for a laptop without a memory architecture t…
  • I predict new macs will come out before they capture Osama Bin Laden (And I don't think they will ever catch him)
  • Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla Microsoft appears to have sharply limited success in products that cannot be established by directly leveraging their monopoly. Microsoft is going through a midlife crisis. They aren't really sure if …

  • what are you talking about MAcworld 2005 we will all be talking about the upcoing g7's with suport for 128gb of RAM out of the box. ATI will also be releasing the Radeon 10000, 1gb version that will be a built to order option on the powermacs...at…
  • Quote: Originally posted by JCG I doubt it since the Power 5 isn't even out yet. Well who knows what tomorrow will bring from IBM! maybe in January the powerbooks will be based on the g7-fx mobile chip. (the 995fx) This chip is utili…
  • Since it is almost april: the last updates for the products are as follows pb: 7 months powermac update: 10 months ibook 6 months emac 6 months imac 7 months average 7.2 round down to 7 look it is mythical!
  • Technology changes too frequently to leave updates to once a year, but Apple is very good at selling outdated technology at premum pricing. (Hello the emac still uses PC100 RAM, not even a low speed DDR!!!!)
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kenneth I kind of like the idea of ADC. It does eliminate some cables in most cases. belkin's adc to dvi is half the price of apple's
  • I like the dual button track pad. Definitely, the speakers need a new home. I think it looks too similar to recent Toshiba and eMachine two tone laptops. emachine toshiba The one thing I notice most about apple notebooks, they are ve…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla A better example to provide is about all of the data you have on you machine being in some kind of data/file formats that you will not easily be able to convert to a new platform, now that your platfo…
  • Hopefully next week there will be a new promo.....$100 off all products....this no updates/same pricing really is annoying.
  • OLED's are only good if you plan to throw it away in 2 years. not ready for primetime in a notebook yet.
  • Quote: Originally posted by LoCash That's the great thing about the Apple brand; people say this a lot. At least they aren't saying, "Macs suck, and I would own one because they cost too much." Apple has established itself as a high end brand.…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Carson O'Genic I removed MOSR from my bookmarks about a year ago. The complete lack of trustworthy rumors was bad, but even worse was the constant "We are working a big update for later this afternoon, lots of good st…
  • I am not sure if Apple needs to go into to the subnote category, but small reasonably priced notebooks with good battery life is always in demand! 1" or .93" 14" under 5 lbs with built in optical and bluetooth..... and keeping the 12" form fa…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Amorph "budget PC buyer." Also, there's another classic argument switch here: The great complaint against the AIO is that there's no "future proofing" - but at the same time, you dismiss Apple's future-proofing i…
