    in Sources: Apple developing updated AirPorts, two-button mouse Comment by henriok May 2005

  • Blu-ray would be a must have feature for the same category of people that consider a 4x3 GHz PowerMac with 32 GB RAM and a dual Cinema Display 30" setup a necessity. These people (and they exist wheather the actually do need it or not) obviosly have…
