Remember there are 2 images at work here. A boot image, which must be able to boot your Macs over the LAN. This sits on the NetBoot server and mainly uses tftp for transport I think. Then you have your master deployment image, which of couse is what…

How could Apple be affected by this? Lets break it down in big chunks... Solaris: Larry can go head-to-head against MS on the Server OS front (and possibly the workstation too of course) = good for Apple? D-Trace & Instruments Java ZFS (po…

I just got full insurance for 2 iPhones from my local insurance provider (who also provides my home insurance too). It was ~25 bucks each per year for FULL coverage, including theft, damage etc. All I needed to provide was my receipts and my serial …

Im positive the App Store model will make its way to the Apple TV. Just look at Boxee, Hulu, etc. Providing licensed plug-ins and modules to expand the content is the way to go (and getting the right frameworks and APIs to do it in a robust, quick w…

Anyone know the app called "Terminal"? Perhaps Apple is working on their own version for the iPhone. Sweet.

Think "App Store" for Apple TV. Plug-in's like Boxee make sense. Extensible. Pandora and AIM are on the iPhone (2 apps/services I figured Apple would want more control over) Some of the players: TiVO Hulu Roku NetFlix BlockBuster Amazon …

Please clarify... Is the Nehalem 5500 Xeon proc the same as the "i7"? I see both names referencing the same CPU class. If you Google Nehalem you will see a lot of confusing info. I thought the i7 was the replacement of the Core 2 Duo proc cla…

I havent used an ABS since the snow version years ago. Thinking about getting a new router/access point. Can you admin the ABS from the WAN side with a web browser (or even Apple's Airport Utility), or do you have to be on the LAN side to admin t…

I wish Apple would have killed off the SuperDrive DVD drive in favor additional space inside for another SATA drive, and instead offered an optional external DVD (soon to be Blu-Ray) drive. It could have had the same footprint as the mini. It would …

OK class, lets review the new Mac mini's specs: No price change in US Faster CPUs (2.26GHz replaces 2.0 GHz) Core 2 Duo Bigger cache (3 MB replaces 2MB) DDR3 RAM (replaces DDR2) Faster bus (1066MHz replaces 667MHz) NVIDIA GeForce 9400M chi…

Lets post an organized list of the cons: Apple should have waited for the new i7 "Bloomfield" CPU perhaps (replace the Core 2 Duo) No Blu-Ray yet No LED backlight No 30" model Lower price?

One word.... RCA Couldnt have said it better myself, Steve.

Observations: 1) 2 video ports? Why? Seems sloppy. 2) I would expect the white plastics to be black now to follow the newer Apple aesthetics found on the iMacs, monitors and MacBooks. White seems so old school now. 3) I would have guessed t…
