Quote: Originally posted by Luca Rescigno I'd have to disagree, rustedborg. I agree the eMac could be better but I think they should just cut out the high end eMac. Make it fill in for the iMac. The $799 eMac has a 1 GHz processor, same as the lo…

Quote: Originally posted by satchmo So the laptop line has been all upgraded. The G5 towers are kickin' a**. Even the lowly eMac had a sort of a refresh (well price wise at least). iPods and iTMS were upgraded too. That leaves the iMac as the on…

Quote: Originally posted by Brad Scratch that from the MacWorld list -- it just got a G4. More support to my post on the previous page that "Apple has finally wised up and started announcing things when they are ready (or near-ready) rather than…

Quote: Originally posted by Brad Huh. I never noticed this before. "Huh" indeed. The "while supplies last" comment makes me think that Apple may have a new eMac planned for Christmas or just after Christmas. By the way, I'm not bashing…

Quote: Originally posted by Curufinwe Yo, the eMac doesn't need to be updated, it needs to be cheaper! Noone buys an eMac to have a kickass computer. The iBook updates today just drive home this point that all the gee-whiz goodies are elsewhere…

Quote: Originally posted by rageous For those complaining about the "new" eMac, please look at these three graphics from the front page of apple.com: Notice anything? That's right... Apple is not calling the eMac "New". It's just an update, an…

Quote: Originally posted by scottiB rustedborg, you're correct. Still, U$1099 for 1Ghz G4/80GB/SuperDrive ain't bad. I'm not saying it's "horrible." It just bothers me that the top of the line iBook now has several features (faster cache, …

Quote: Originally posted by Alpha Mac apple store Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this just the SAME eMac that Apple has had on the shelves in 2003 ... it just looks like they cut the sub-1GHz G4 from the line. I mean, where's th…

Quote: Originally posted by whoami it seems like everything has already recieved substantial updates or will between now and then......what's in the grapevine for macworld? I think the rumored speed increases for the PowerMacs are almost cer…

Quote: Originally posted by ryaxnb Stop bashing the eMac, please. I like the eMac. As do I, but like all Macs, I like Apple to give it a new look every so often. As cool as I think the eMac looks, I'm ready for a new enclosure ... even if it'…

Quote: Originally posted by Chagi Not quite following you, but at this point, DDR is either the same price or cheaper than old school SDRAM. Except for if you're crazy enough to buy the extra RAM from Apple when you buy your Mac. Apple charge…

Quote: Originally posted by DHagan4755 The one thing the iBook needs as importantly as everything else is a better display. I would think a widescreen display would be great! I don't know if that's considered "fashionably hip," but I do think i…

Quote: Originally posted by NOFEER so if ibook goes 1gz and the PB 12 is 1gz how do they differentiate the two, will the g3 be that much faster than the g4??? can you say for sure which would run VPC better?? this is my buying decision. i'm not…

Quote: Originally posted by DHagan4755 I don't know if I have said this before here, but I think if the next iBook has a G4, it's a pretty safe bet the next PB will be a G5. Slim chance we'll see a G4 in the next iBook. IBM's new G3 (PowerPC …

Quote: Originally posted by Bancho iBooks aren't past schedule for update yet. They were updated last november to 800MHz then again in April/May to 900MHz. We should see something within a month and that would keep with the roughly 6 month update…

Quote: Originally posted by satchmo Actually, it might not be a bad strategy to have some sort of an iBook/eMac upgrade at this time. Coupled with the just rolled out iTunes for Windows and iPod accessories, this might go to convince switcher…

Quote: Originally posted by Matsu The eMac WAS NOT made "for education" Whatever Apple tells you, that's just spin. I know plenty of schools/boards that now mandate the purchase of LCD's over CRT's for ergonomic reasons (les radiation to fr…

Quote: Originally posted by Chagi One has to wonder how much longer Apple will choose to ship the lowest end Mac with a CRT monitor, particularly when the PC world is gradually being taken over by LCD panels. I think Apple would be better off …

I switched in 2000 after spending 2 years working on Macs at school and discovering that they were MUCH easier to use than PCs. The only edge that a PC has over my Mac is that there are more games available for a PC ... but that's what my game platf…

Quote: Originally posted by Guartho Are we expecting the GX in this revision? GX is the one with a vector unit correct? I ask, because I think I'll be iBook shopping this December and having the GX in them by then would be cherry! [edit:] T…
