I've been waiting for an iPod remote! Looks like I'm breaking out the credit card in a mad dash to buy the latest Apple gadget once more!

iMac with Intel Processor

Same screen sizes, same design, same features, same prices, but 2-3x faster than the iMac G5

iMac:
Peeing pants. Must buy…on way to store now…

PowerBook:
Gulp. Suddenly my co-worker's 17" PB ain't looking so hot.

And to think I was anticipating Intel Minis and iBooks (borrriiiing!).

Ok, so what does this mean:

Apple intends to have the complete machine park over on intel until the end of 2006.

Pardon my ignorance but - "Machine Park" ? Is "park" a noun or verb in that sentence?

And "UNTIL the end of 2006?" Not "BY the end?"

Apple Store is up in the US, includes PowerBooks with G4 processors and the new MacBook Pro (says 4x faster) with the Intel. Same deal with the iMacs.

 

[Captain Code]

MacBook and iMac now only have FW 400 ports, no FW 800

 

[kainjow]

Ok, so MacBook Pro - I assume MacBooks will come out later - single processor?

 

[ScottW]

Yea, and MacBook requires a USB Tongle for Modem access.

 

[Esquilinho]

I can't access the chat room... it says there's already someone there with my username!

 

[Shookster]

No mention of Apple's pro lineup (apart from the Aperture demo). Are they saving that for NAB in April?

 

[mdnky]

No S-Video either, a shorter slightly wider screen (last G4 model was 3:2 [1.5:1], MacBook Pro is 16:10 [1.6:1]), haven't seen anything stating a battery life either.
