    good moment to buy a Power Mac Dual?

    I wouldn't expect them so soon. The only reason why they will be talking about it at WWDC is that they need to prepare their developers for the 64 bit architecture. The actual systems will come much later. So if you need a powermac go for it. Unless you can wait a good 6 months, which is a...

    Problem with PowerMac Sales

    I just bought a dual 867 MP for work. I had delayed that purchase as long as I could for reasons similar to you, but the fact is that I needed it now. With limited info on what the future will bring (!), I had to make a decision. I'm sure one day, there will be faster and cheaper PowerMacs, but...

    (2) Things the New 17" PB is missing..

    Trackball, two-button mouse... Those are just awful suggestions, sorry... I have a three-button mouse for my mac and it's what I need. Apple is 100% right to provide a simple, single mouse-button. If one needs a more sophisticated 5.5 3D button mouse gizmo, he/she can just go get it and it...

    Apple to introduce video iPod

    It's an interesting concept. However, most people don't have video cameras. So how do you get interesting-to-watch movies in there? The only way it could trigger interest is if it allowed you to record shows DIRECTLY from your TV and allowed you to play them back later on that device. As...

    New Apple PalmOS Device?

    Right now Palm's are nothing more than electronic agendas, which they do very well. But in my field (medical) I envision more uses to a PDA. Actually several of my colleagues have bought PocketPCs instead of Palms because of the size of the drive they carry. That's definitely something that's...

    iTunes 3.0.1 update out

    After installing the upgrade on my stock G4 Cube: 1. Everything is much snappier: - Song selections - Get Info and field changes - Full-screen Visuals went from 8 to 14 FPS (what I had in OS9 before the OSX "upgrade"). Again it's on the stock ATI Rage 128 Pro with 16 MB memory...

    I bought my first PC

    I guess you have not paid for your MS Windows 2000 license either, right? I can't see how you could have spent $600 total on the computer including $200 for a Windows 2000 license. That kindof make it look cheaper than it actually is, right? :confused:

    Jaguar breaks apple's OS sales record.

    At the Soho Apple store on Friday night, I saw quite a few iBooks being bought as well as a couple of G4 towers in the time I was in the store (15 minutes, after a 1.5 hour wait)... I don't know how this compare to their normal sales, but the sales people were busy busy, with 3 lines at the...
