  • I've kinda rethought my thinking (huh?) on a G5-based iMac. If getting a G5 in there means they go UP in price, is that a good thing? Are we all sure a G5 is necessary for consumer, day-to-day use? I don't know, I'm asking. I mean, I'm not going …
  • Lighten up. More "silly" than "cynical". A difference. Learn it. But since you asked nice: a mid-GHz G5, I'd imagine. Standard hard-drive bumps and 128MB graphics. Maybe a new case design (hopefully not larger/bulkier, otherwise why bother…
  • Dual G6, 256MB graphics. 16x ExtraSuperDrive, 400GB hard drive, 19" 16:9 display, FireWire 800, USB 2.0 (7 ports), 4lbs, .5" thick, black metal, blue-glowing Apple logo, slot-loading floppy drive, built-in Zip/Orb drive, GPS, surround sound, DVI and…

  • Quote: Originally posted by oldmacfan It has been said before, Apple will not ship a PDA, Apple will not ship a video iPod, what I do believe Apple is working on is an iLife portable. With video-out, music, color screen, home-on features, maybe …
  • A new iPod - with a 60GB hard drive - and a color screen, AirTunes/Bluetooth abilities AND incorporating that Inkwell stuff so you can push buttons and scribble directly on the screen to input stuff...wouldn't that be sort a PDA, only cooler/better?…
  • BRussell is totally right about the eMac and your particular needs/budget. These kind of threads ALWAYS turn into a derailed frenzy of what everyone ELSE wants (or would get) and totally ignore the original poster and their question. The eMac…
  • Yeah, there you go...something like that. Those Eyegonomic displays have really cool center-mounted supports, which I guess allows for a deceptively smaller base? I don't know physics and whatnot, so I'm just guessing... In other word's, it's not…
  • Quote: Originally posted by BRussell What is wrong with you people? You have to ask? There's a name for it...
  • As for the base, yeah the one shown in TS mockup does look oddly small and lacking...like the thing is going to tip over with a sneeze or hard sigh. You know what it might be more like? Check out those Eyegonomic displays (I've raved about th…
  • Ha! You did the same thing I did (attempt to flesh out that flat, dark drawing and give a bit more "real life" appearance): With apologies to "meticulous gardener"...
  • Despite how shallow this may sound, I'm just happy the damn things match the G5s. About time...only been a year.
  • What if the base was real heavy/dense (BTW, I'm not "meticulous gardener...been receiving e-mails asking ). It does look kinda small in that illustration, but maybe we're not seeing something...
  • Gee, I'm kinda wishing they would...
  • Quote: If that's true this update is going to suck and is probably only an interim update until 3GHz G5's come in September. No wonder Steve didn't want to introduce these at WWDC. Yes, that dual 2.6 will never cut it...piece of shit. It's o…
  • Referring to Quagmire's post above, I've long mentioned the idea of modular inserts or plates to customize Macs, color-wise. Not all Macs, of course, but let's say iMacs. If a new design came out, have it ship stock with the chrome or white plastic …
  • Yeah, it goes a bit below the surface of simply "what CAN'T I do on a PC (or Mac) that I can do on a Mac (or PC)". I'm sure, these days, probably not much. But it's definitely the journey. I don't think it's any accident that Microsoft and others…
