  • That's a good question. Cause if it was one of us writing it, then it would just be an enthusiast. But what are the chances of the writer/director both agreeing that the G5 is something they can stick in the film and have people understand it, s…
  • My girlfriend has this to share: She saw the movie and said I'd like it. Meg Ryans' character is in marketting, so she uses Macs, and her character plans to go to the MacWorld Expo. Leopold is introduced to her as a friend who will be going to …
  • Exactly - that is why it does fit in this forum, after all - the announcment about it's "existance" was posted here, so the confirmation of it should be too. No one sees movies here though, I guess Andrew
  • All I want is for apple in increase market share by 5% each year. That way they doulbe thier share in the first year. That should raise the stock enough to split, and then split once more each year after that. In 5 years apple will have a 30% s…
  • [quote]Originally posted by DansG3: Everyone probably remembers a few years ago what Steve Jobs left for the audience under their seats at the keynote. Well the question gets asked everytime there are new announcements, will a new mouse be unveile…
  • [quote]Originally posted by ZO: I posted this too in the 'mwsf predictions' thread. Apple has been having crazy monitor promotions, going even stronger now. Clear sign of change... and can you guess WHY? The monitors have to match the cas…
  • I was able to talk to an employee of an Apple store here in Northern CA (there are two stores near the Apple HQ), and he was off duty for the day. He told me some interesting tidbits about the MWSF First off, he said he has no guarantees, but he…
  • 2001 (DVD SP, iDVD, iMovie 2, DP G4s, FCP2...FCP3!) Flat panel displays. Andrew
  • [quote]Originally posted by macgirl: 2.) I was at the MWNY keynote this past summer, as I was leaving I walked directly infront of the stage, Steve was there yelling at a bunch of people about not having the new iMac ready, and it looked like h…
  • Well, attending the show two years ago, I decided to watch the webcast of the new products - which was choppy (evne on my cable) and cut out a bit. Then, when I went to the show, I found out that I could have watched the whole thing on Apples big s…
  • [quote]Originally posted by alcimedes: wow, that rules. man, i'm really tempted to pick one up. i've wanted an iBook for a while now, this is almost in the realm of possibility. Yeah, but the sucky part is we probably assume that since there…
  • I doubt - very highly - that Apple will go into the IM business. They don't want tobe a monopoly. Anyways, if you give us 50GB/sec, we can find a way to use it. Have you ever wanted to have video phones? I mean real ones - with huge displays t…
  • They can only control our minds if we have airport! And airport cards aren't included automatically....yet! Andrew
  • [quote]Originally posted by discstickers: Does Apple have the resources to do this? Well, they have nearly $4 Billion in the bank. that should be enough for a small project in major cities. And it'll surely get more sales of laptops from…
  • If it can wirelessly transver 3.x GB/sec, then it's quite obvious what it will be. I live in downtown San Jose, and there are mounds of coffee shops here hooked up to the internet, wirelessly. I could take an iBook hooked up with an airport card…
  • Apple has "screwed" themselves before while announcing a new product a month or two before it's ready. Which means that for those two months, they do not get any sales (or very few sales) of the older hardware. Like, if they announced a much bette…
  • [quote]Originally posted by JasonPP: I don't think so. there have been a few obsticals in the way of moving a qickly as Apple would like on many fronts... stuck at 500Mz for 23 years, OS X apps not coming out as fast as they'd like..etc.. I'm…
  • [quote]Originally posted by DoctorGonzo: Learn to check you facts. USB was on consumer desktop PCs long before it appeared on the Mac. He said it was the first time it appeared on an Apple machine. Andrew
  • I teach High School. Right now, they have iBooks. Andrew
  • [quote]Originally posted by stimuli: Actually, digital video camcorders don't lose quality on the tape because they record 1s and 0s to the tape. Like a Unix backup tape drive. But yea, a 30 GB hardrive in a camcorder would be sweet. Try re…
