    Tiger has gone gold!!!

    Wow, that was quick... Strange, what with all the bugs posted on this board alone with A425...

    Rumour: Updated Airports, Two-Button Mouse!

    Today I'll be an optimist. I think this is the year that Jobs Gets Over Himself. I mean, we got started with the Mac Mini...Why not a multibutton mouse too? ...Just...give up...the 1980s... =)

    New iMac G5's Coming (Apple Store Sign?)

    My personal opinion - the iMac G5 is better looking than the current cinema display, maybe not quite as good looking as the old ones (I own both, so I tend to stare at them a lot =)

    New iMac G5's Coming (Apple Store Sign?)

    He said "refurb", not "new".

    XServe G5s now with 16GB RAM?

    Cool, when's it going to arrive??

    GoogleX

    Considering Apple's reaction in the past to Dock-like programs for other platforms and their litigous nature, I wonder if it wasn't quickly decided that this would NOT be something that Apple would be happy with, and taken down for that reason?

    Rumour: Updated Airports, Two-Button Mouse!

    Yeah, to be honest, it's actually the major issue I have against purchasing an Apple notebook (that, and limited finances =). I rarely use the notebook in circumstances where a desktop mouse is feasible, and having to deal with the one-button mouse would drive me insane. (I'm not just used to...

    iTunes subscription service

    He's not an Apple Representative, he's paid to speculate for a living. But interesting nonetheless =)

    iPod Shuffles @ WalMart?

    Yes, Wal-Mart sells Monopoly, too. But in a different section of the store. I'm not sure what you're smelling, then.

    Apple drops BTO Mac mini prices

    ...That's assuming you can use your NewEgg.com RAM without voiding the warranty?

    Mac mini

    I was in the Apple store today, where several people told me that RAM was *not* user-installable on the Minis, and that Apple required an "authorized service representative" (i.e. the store) to install RAM... Are they just incorrect, or is this the policy??

    FedEx just dropped off my Mac mini

    Wow. 165 now =) I presume that the notebook users are VERY familiar with this setting. I wonder, though, why such a huge (and reproducable) performance difference when I have it set to "Automatic"? It's not temperature-related - I can start out from an idle, cool-as-it-will-go disk and...

    General iPod Photo problems, can they be fixed?

    I agree 100% that these are silly and reduce the usability of the iPod photo (whose photo "advantages" are already questionable without poor UI). These sound like amateur UI mistakes. Presumably, though, all of these things could be fixed by a software update. Hopefully that'll happen.

    FedEx just dropped off my Mac mini

    Sadly, my 1.8ghz G5 iMac only scores 115 (on a good day). What's up with that?

    iLife '05 Shipping!!!

    They're still a tad pricey, but the books are the best part of iPhoto 5 for me... Already built and ordered a nice surprise Valentine's gift =)

    Cell processor & OS X ..

    Let's say I'm a bit skeptical about the claims of ultra-super-mega improvements in performance. I've heard those "confirmed reports" plenty of times in the past with other products, they've never been true...

    Mac mini

    This, however, is much more convincing. Weird that Apple doesn't seem to make this more clear on their website?

    Mac mini

    Hmmm. The warranty info doesn't actually state this. It does *sort of* imply it, but I've never seen "sort of implied" hold up in a warranty agreement. The "memory...upgrades must be performed by an Apple Authorized Service..." would appear to explicitly state that RAM is not user-upgradable.

    FedEx just dropped off my Mac mini

    Just curious - how did you measure this? Or did you read it somewhere?
