  • Quote: Originally posted by aHobbit According to this news report Apple shipped 6,000 Xserves in Q1 2004 and "very, very few" in Q2 2004. There really aren't many Xserves sold. Probably not even 10,000 in half a year! Let's do a thinking exp…

  • I was under the impression that 80-90% of the G5 sales were Dual chip models, even with the XServe G5's. I can't imagine that Apple is only producing 5-10 thousand XServe G5's.
  • Quote: If IBM really invested a lot of time and effort to fix the PPC970fx problem, do you think they'd throw this out the window and start producing the 975 instead? Why fix it in the first place? If Apple ordered 100.000s of these chips, could…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Tomb of the Unknown OK, I'm going to take a stab at predicting that we are on the cusp of a Tablet Mac from Apple. Do I have inside info? No, I do not. However, there are one or two bits of intelligence that may …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Defiant WTF pissed in your brain for quoting MOSR? Thank you, when I find out, I will personally let you know. So now that you have flamed me, how about some speculation over my ???'s.
  • Hmm, not one reply, are you all ignoring this thread, I thought I would have at least gotten the WTF are you doing quoting MOSR reply. But seriously, what would Apple do if they had the 975 ramping well and ready for release by say September? Do…
  • ""Thats why Bil Gates won, cos he's a cheap dickhead like the rest of us."" FYI, Bill did not win bacause he is cheap. Windows is not cheap $$$ wise.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Amorph On the other hand, Apple can't sell G5s they don't have. If IBM is just getting around to producing enough for the Xserve, then I think any possible iMac G5 release is not exactly imminent. Unless the nature …
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacGraham The only thing that disappoints me is that they did not price drop the iBooks as they did the eMacs. I was hoping for a $999.00 entry point on the iBook. I still believe that price might happen. I also …
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacGraham I really think with apples adoption of the 1.5G4 chip in the PB's and the fact that they seem to be having supply/engineering troubles with the 970fx chip, that we will not see a new form G5 iMac for at least…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Michael Grey Just my $0.02\ Thanks for your two cents. If you read my post on the Master/slave idea, you would see that the slaves could be used with the master but could also be used with other Macs. N…
  • Quote: Originally posted by DrBoar It appears that the 3 GHz this summer will streach the definition of "summer" and "shipping". Now come on Summer doesn't even start till late June and ends in late September. No need to redefine.
  • Ok, we did this one yesterday, and it was locked. This is not a story. people need to get their eyes checked. http://forums.appleinsider.com/showt...threadid=41010

  • I have a friend who is "Mr. Cell Phone". I laugh at him all the time about his obsession. He knows his stuff. I personally have no use for a cell phone. I have had two in my life both supplied by employers, both with direct connect, and bot…
  • With the eMac pricing out this week, I see the base iBook coming out at $999.00. And yes Apple will make money on it. Lots of money.
