I've really been wondering about what's happening at Apple. I'm talking about the amount of time for a processor jump at Apple they are starting to look stagnate. WWDC is a long way off in the computer world and Apple is starting to look like it is standing still.
Sure iLife '04 is good and all but where is the new Pro line? Plus, with iPod Mini shortages and Powerbook quality control Apple is looking like it is falling behind. I know a lot of people here will disagree with me but I just look at the facts. On one hand they have a killer product (iPod Mini) but can't deliver and on the other the iTunes Music store is STILL stuck in the USA when other carriers are carrying the same exact music (except encoding) to other countries.
I'm just worried my favorite computer company is starting to show signs of the horror days of the early to mid 90's. They don't know when they have a good thing (like the Newton) with the iPod Mini. Also with the G5 the future looks bright, but it still bring back memories of failed Motorola chip promises. On the subject of Motorola, if they were producing the G5 the Mac community would be crucifying them by now! So Apple/IBM, where are the speed bumps? You you finally do the update, it better be worth the wait!
