    What do U all Think - Final Verdict ?

    g4 likes: - "kick-ass" casing - the door. it's not as bad as you might think, includes a latch for no-tools opening, and means you can actually get to the inside even if there isn't 2 foot of bench space to the right of the machine. and don't forget, Ive is a design genius, and if HE couldn't...

    Panther -- How much?

    i'll buy it. i think this is even a better upgrade than jaguar was. i was only thinking last week, how on earth can they make 10.2 better? only a couple of features sprang to mind (user switching, better finder) but it seems they've gone and read my mind and implemented stuff i didn't even...

    Apple just doesn't get it.

    these are INCREDIBLE machines. they beat the pants off any wintel machine, and as such, are priced accordingly. You can now get a 1.0 GHZ G4 in oz for $1999, which is roughly equivelant price point to the mysterious US$999 golden price barrier. this is huge news for us down under, and makes a...

    OH MY GOD -- check out what address book can do!!

    uhuh - 800 Ozutoralian dorrars. that's fairly standard here. buying the latest phones off contract can easily cost 800 - 1100 (ie 3650, t610, p800). the exchange rate thing is screwed, check out the prices on http://www.apple.com.au and see how inflated they are compared with US: 17" PB =...

    PISSED OFF AT ITUNES!!! I lost my ratings forever!!! WAHHHH!!!!! :-( :-( :-(

    Because none of the versions of ID3 tags support ratings, and thus apple have chosen to store them in the xml file. I can empathise with you though, i have twice lost all my playlists and ratings because "my itunes library has become corrupt". It made me start again. I now back up my itunes...

    10.3 Panther Screenshot (For Real!!)

    i like the new "solid" backgrounds and toned down striping. anyone notice how finder now looks remarkably similar to explorer in xp? well, maybe not _looks_, but certainly the layout...

    OH MY GOD -- check out what address book can do!!

    T610 rocks! :D im waiting waiting waiting for it to be released in australia. i even ALMOST bought one on ebay, but it was from someone in singapore, and i'm fairly sure if i wired my 800 bucks i'd never see it, nor the phone, again. so i'm just waiting until "late june/early july" to get my...

    OH MY GOD -- check out what address book can do!!

    Hmm.. i be thinking you have a bluetooth phone (see the shiny bluetooth icon in a.b.?) . this is a long documented feature of a.b. Unless your talking about instant messaging between computers, then that's quite cool. no wait, that's email.

    Apple Store shows a G5 ad

    if i were to hack into an apple store, i highly doubt the only thing i'd do is post bogus specs... not saying it's true (hell, who knows), but the likelyhood is, in order: 1. Doctored screenshot 2. Actual specs, someone at apple screwed up, and very, very quickly tried to put it right (=...

    Something Is Coming...

    ooh ooh ooh I'm excited! One of the reasons i'm hanging out for 970's is not because I want one, but one of the prick customers at my work stuffed us around with a Custom-built G4 1.42, and sent it back and sent heaps of letters to apple, but now he's finally happy and he's picking it up today...

    12" Powerbooks drop $200

    you are right on my man (apart from bluetooth - i think you'll find it's smack-bang built-in) 1. true true, ALTHOUGH - the 12"er, believe it or not, supports the new 1GB SODIMMS which are starting to become available (at a hideous price). so in a few months they should be affordable and...

    Part of one of my band's songs (Exclusive)

    It's definately the acoustic version, they haven't gone as far as getting a full blown super-duper recorded version going yet. it's good to see you like it though :D i'm really interested to see if people actually like it as a song - the guys a very talented song-writer (i reckon anyway)

    Part of one of my band's songs (Exclusive)

    nice to see songs being posted, and i'd thought i'd post my mate's song he recorded a couple of weeks ago. the singer is the younger brother (col) and the guitarist and backing is the older brother (cam). together they are 'fink'. I reckon it's a top song, and makes for good fun sitting...

    aah excellent to see kendell's back to his inane best. AE not as revolutionary as airport? well nice spotting professor (profanity edited even before fryke could get to it). i think your skewed figures completely belie your credibility. 600mb in ten secs? what a bunch of (more profanity...
