    in I simply cannot stomach this transition Comment by ptrash November 2005
  • At what point does Apple have too much of a good thing. Enough people switch, eventually the virus and malware makers will discover the platform. And when does Apple begin to threaten MS? (As long as they have single digit percentages I assume they'…
    in Over 1 million Windows to Mac converts so far in 2005? Comment by ptrash November 2005
  • The future, says Pogue...although I'm a little confused. Can't you do the same thing with a Mac? What's special here? Ok, one button record process, the 45 second record time. And the ability to add the Olive's music to the Ipod's contents, as oppos…
    in Mwsf What's Coming Up? Comment by ptrash October 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by nowayout11 The product is apparently 2 years away, and they plan to focus on the embedded market. No telling how it will compare to other chips at that point. Performance or power. Two years from now we'll be using…

    in 10.5, 10.6 working on PPC Comment by ptrash October 2005
  • Must be a big relief for Tekserve, a company that kept Apple's profile out there in the public eye during the lean years. Given the kind of corporate hardball Apple plays, I was wondering how Apple planned to deal with them. While all of the other …
    in Apple abandons plans for third Manhattan store Comment by ptrash October 2005
  • I don't think you need to show anything when buying online. You just need to provie the school info that they request. I do have to admit, I find it strange you don't have ID. Where do you teach, in a one room school house out on the prairie? With a…
    in Edu discounts (teachers) Comment by ptrash February 2005
  • Ted, that you posted that link to Emporis is too freaky. I had a window open to their website, to this page: http://www.emporis.com/en/cd/cm/?id=103690. We are looking for a long lost relative who must be located to settle a family inheritance invol…
    in Apple to build elegant retail store in Manhattan's Midtown Comment by ptrash February 2005
  • The poll may be unsound, but it's importance can' be overlooked. Afterall, the people questioned are the trendsetters, and while their beliefs may not refelct current reality around the world (I doubt Apple has much name recognition in Rio's favelos…
    in Prediction: Apple bigger than Microsoft in 5 years Comment by ptrash February 2005
  • Speaking of Tekserve and J & R, night and day experiences. Tekserve employees are Apple enthusiasts, J & R and salepeople who happen to be selling Macs. I was in J & R tody with a friend who I was trying to ge to buy a Mac. The salesman …
    in Long-time Apple reseller closes its doors Comment by ptrash February 2005
  • Hey, I agree with you guys on the level of stupidity out there, and the dumbing down of the "commons." So, it turns out that there is significant data that shows connections between long term expopsure to EMR, via EMF like those in the atmosphere ge…
    in is this pure BS? Comment by ptrash December 2004
  • I am so ready for this phone, if only because it will be set up to sync to my Ibook or Ipod. It's funny, I was going to post on the board that Apple was going to release a phone very soon. I had expected one in time for Christmas, as I was in an App…
    in Apple and Motorola on track to intro iTunes-ready phone Comment by ptrash December 2004
  • So suppose you did as I did and used cash for my ibook purchase and then were so broke (unexpected job loss) that you had to use your credit card to buy other things (food, coffee, etc). Essentially it really doesn't matter that I bought the Ibook w…
    in Goodbye Apple :( Comment by ptrash December 2004
  • I was in Best Buy yesterday, another one of those electronic chain stores. Usually their salespople are pretty clueless when it comes to Macs, but yesterday I spoke to a young Chinese kid who was really into the details of memory. He thought that I …
    in RAM for new G4 iBook Comment by ptrash November 2004
  • Wow, it's amazing to me thatr all of you except for Murchison are focusing on the computers, when it is the I-pod that's Apple's future. I suspect Jobs would be happy to dump the desktop if he could, but he realizes for now it's a necessary evil. Ev…
    in What are the next big steps for Apple's hardware line-up? Comment by ptrash November 2004
  • Actually, sounds a lot like the new communicators/cum cell phones. I actualy expected Apple to roll out a phone this Christmas season. I suspect they will soon. They have to, since the market is moving to these kind of all-in-pne devices. What would…
