    Apple 30" display in G5 spot?

    I have had people comment to me about "that new G5" after the ad has been out for a little while. These are folks that know I am a machead and used to not care. I think people's ideas of Apple have changed for the better, with saturation of things like the imac, ipod, etc many may not yet buy a...

    Strategy: porting iTunes for Windows to impose QuickTime

    I think it's a mistake to generalize PC users' music obtaining strategy into "they tend to want their music for free". Yes the vast majority of illegal swapping happens on PCs, but that's because they are the vast majority of users. I think in each group there are people who dabble in illegal...

    FireWire 2, USB 2 - When on Macintosh?

    Is there such a thing as a pc card for a laptop that will add firewire? My wintel buddy wants an ipod, but does not have firewire on his computer.

    RIAA is a joke!

    I look to the simpsons, "Oh No...Beta". My favorite band is a local (well, TX) band and the reason they are well known around here is that they did a snoop dog cover (they are an alternative country band). Once you are hooked by that song, they really reel you in with their real stuff...

    RIAA is a joke!

    i am not an audio nut, but I thought that mpeg4 AAC is a higher quality format. Maybe not true cd quality, but better sound at less size. http://www.apple.com/mpeg4/aac/

    New Display Line?

    This is a great point, but in my setup, I'd need a 2nd video card; i don't have a dual head card built in. This would add dough to an already huge pile of dough. Dough upon dough. Also I'd like having the continuous real estate of the 20 inch, instead of broken up 17s.

    New Display Line?

    I still can't get over just how damn expensive these things are. If they are replacing the line, I would wait and buy a 20incher. You could get a deal on the ones they have now, or get robbed by buying a brand new model. Either way it's a good display. No more rhymes, I mean it.

    No One Mentioned This!!!!

    First, I think it would be cool for Apple to make an office-type product but I don't think that I would buy it. I already have ms office and it is the standard. Why ditch a set of apps i have used for years, to throw some money into a new app that may or may not be decent? Secondly, yes it's...

    CNN shows another G5 encolure!

    If you think about the design process that they must go through, you can see how they came to that end. It is very exciting to see a product this well thought out. It reminds me of a piece of heavy construction equipment. The asthetic comes from the utility of it. In other words, as little...

    Apple just doesn't get it.

    These prices are not set by Steve and Co. on a whim. This is the best price that they can give you based on what their projected sales are. There are leagues of number crunchers, market people, etc that figure out how many macs they will conceivably sell. Apple will benefit more by selling a few...
