Quote: Originally posted by HOM Thirdly, All of Apple's laptops have built in mics that are very good at picking up sounds from a lecture, so the need to carry an external mic is a non-issue. Well my bad. I'm sitting here looking at my iBook…

Quote: Originally posted by HOM I would have killed to have this version of Office when I was a college. I used to do the notebook stuff by taking notes in Word and recording my lectures using Amedeus 2. It was a pain in the ass to record in AIFF…

Quote: Originally posted by bauman Read the post. It makes sense to only offer iPhoto for free. The way iPhoto stands now, this upgrade should be free. Well, Apple has apparently decided that the iApps are not going to be distributed ala ca…

It looks like a skippable upgrade to me. I went from Word 5.1 to Office 98 (I bought Word 6, but never used it, it was so damn slow on my Centris). And I went from Office98 to Office X, skipping 2001, when I completed my OS X transition. So h…

I totally disagree. $49 for all of this ($29 edu) is more than fair pricing for what they represent. I like this pricing decision a lot more than the $249 for the iPod mini. $49 is what, dinner for two at Red Lobster?

Quote: Apple is leading in market share in the MP3 player market while having offered very expensive players. There is no need to hurry and sacrifice profit at this point in order to bolster an already outrageous market share. You rarely get a s…

I have this odd sense that there's some serious disinformation going on. There seems to be a G5 2.0-2.4 (maybe 2.6) consensus, which seems too easy to me. I really wonder if Jobs is lowering expectations for MWSF, so he can then blow us away. …

My PB G4 12"/867 was perfect -- until it was stolen. Obviously news of the quality control problems hasn't filtered down to the thieves yet.

I have Vonage. I like it quite a bit but there are some caveats. The delay isn't too bad at all. My problem is cutouts resulting from bandwidth competition. I have a 256k DSL line at my office (all I can get out here, apparently), and I cann…

I seriously doubt that Apple will hold up Panther to fit the re-modeling schedule of one or two Apple Stores. (And, yes, the Jaquar launch at the MOA store was an absolutely incredible experience) My guess: October 30, 2003. 10/30/03 10.…

There is no meaningful difference between the 15"Al and the 17". I mean, we're talking about 160 horizontal pixels, 46 vertical pixels, and .08 GHz. For the price difference, you could buy a 15" LCD with your 15" PB and give yourself a two-mon…

I have successfully run iChatAV with a DV camcorder as the video source on my 8500 upgraded with a G4/450 and OS X 10.2.6 (an unsupported install with XPostFacto, obviously). You should be fine.

Apple Store Southdale (suburban Minneapolis) has one G5 1.6 on the floor. I played with it this morning. The case is an impressive technical achievement. Hard to tell how fast it is. I brought an audio CD, and ripped it into iTunes, 128k AAC…

No G5's at the Mall of America store in Minnesota today. An Apple Store employee told me that they were supposed to get them yesterday (Friday), and now he was guessing Monday. The big poster of the G5 internals was up in the front of the store.…
