Here we go with the "You said this, so you must be this..." stereotype... :rolleyes:
I know guys where even though they are the "bread winner" or contribute greatly to the funds, they have to approve EVERYTHING through the Wife - whereas the Wife can spend as she pleases....
Happy Wife, Happy Life... :eek:
Not into that type of relationship.
That "type" of relationship? You mean that exact description. Because either A) you're not married, or B) have a very similar scenario with only slight difference. The differences being where you pass judgement, but remain altogether similar.

Take a look at this comparison chart.

Why dosn't the ipod connect to the Xbox marketplace? :p
and whats a "unique online tag"?
also look @ the official site:
https://www.comingzune.com/
Strange thing making beeping noises. that 'cool'.
those sites are all run by MS.
the screen? same res as the iPod, so it will look crappy as the pixels will be stretched to fit the screen.

I just saw one at the apple store today... The nano's are still too small lol. Here's a toast to the mini, apple's best non-full size iPod ever.
This new generation nano represents an ocean of improvement over its predecessor, but I do agree that the mini stands alone as the best in the field. I will be getting one of these new nanos (likely green or blue) simply because the marketplace dictates such things. Personally, I never had a burning need for a small color screen ... the mini's monochrome screen was fine in every respect.

i would fall of my chair laughing if apple did some notification that you shouldn't shut down your macbook during the firmware update... hhehehe :D
they did. check the article. pretty ironic.
but i just installed it on my blackbook without a hitch. mid-summer mine was shutting down, then after the 1.0 firmware update it worked fine, and it just started again this week. i've been using it for 30 mins since the 1.1 update with no shutdowns.
i wonder if it just ignores that temp sensor shorting out? there's bound to be other temp sensors in the case, they could just completely ignore that one.

Having spent a fair amount of time living in a rural environment, I would like to add my distaste for Wal-Mart. They move into an area with their "low prices"
and put all the local stores out of business. There are hundreds of little towns in rural areas of the south that have been devastated by the arrival of a Wal-Mart. I have had business dealings with Wal-Mart and I will tell you they do bully suppliers. I had a shipment to them with the standard invoice terms of 2% discount if paid within 10 days or net invoice if paid withing 30 days. Well, Wal-Mart paid in 90 days and took the discount! PLus they gave me a hrad time when I called them on it! I have not shopped with them in over 15 years, and I plan on keeping it that way. The fact that they sell 40% of the DVDs sold during the Christmas buying cycle does give them clout with the studios, and that is unfortunate. However, I believe that volume could be made up elsewhere, so I am not sure that the studio heads would knuckle under. They have more and more been taking a long term view, so that may diminish Wal-Mart's clout. Let us hope so.

In the end, it is all marketing... which is the case with most of Apple's products. They have been selling PC hardware now for years at a higher price than their competitors. Windows 7 isn't any worse (or better) than MacOS for browsing the web or checking email..... so its not the OS that is influencing soccer moms and emo kids to buy Mac either.

Ever owned a 12" powerbook? I have two.
There's a reason a lot of 12" powerbook owners rave on about them. The form factor is very neat. It sure isn't about how powerful they are :).
Too right. My Rev. A will have to be completely dead before I replace it with a 13" MacBook. The only way I'll buy another laptop before then is if Apple come out with a 12" MBP.
Not slagging off the MacBooks by saying that. I just love my PB12". Best laptop ever IMO.

Cost aside for the moment, it's Microsoft's decision to sell such a bewildering number of versions that I find so remarkable.
I agree, though this (if true) makes that less of a real issue.
The three retail editions (Home Basic, Home Premium, and Ultimate) of Windows Vista will ship on the same DVD. The features of the Home Premium and Ultimate editions may be "unlocked" at any time by purchasing a one-time upgrade license through a Control Panel tool called Windows Anytime Upgrade. The Business edition will also be upgradable to Ultimate. Such licenses will be sold by Microsoft's partners and OEMs, but not directly by Microsoft.
This is a change from XP where there was no good way to go "pro" if you already had "Home" installed, even though they had promised such a path during the beta.

This would explain why their catalogue was discounted to itunes album pricing lately, grab the $10-per-album crowd's money while they can.
Music released to stores in January are what labels think have no shot. Unless itunes is different, I wouldn't expect Beatles there until March, possibly next Fall to make a big splash for xmas shoppers. The "1" album oughta be the biggest seller.
I found an article that says Lennon's rights reverted to his estate as the original 28-year period expired during the 90's. If true, McCartney and Sony/Jackson split the other 50%.
BTW, clearchannel didn't ban. Stations could take the advice or ignore it. Govt. censorship is all that truly matters, anyway. Radio Disney won't play death metal. oh no, BANNED! *eyeroll*

New iMacs released :
http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore
Couldnt see it mentioned anywhereYes it's on ours too. (http://www.apple.com/imac/) How come not on the cover of MacRumors!! 24" $1999 2.16GHz Standard with 2.33GHz option for $250 more.
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 128MB SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT 256MB SDRAM Add $125 NOT DUAL DVI - 1920 x 1200 Max Digital External Support - IE Dual 24" Displays. Analog res support up to 2048 x 1536
"The NVIDIA 7300 GT that comes standard in your 24-inch iMac provides amazing performance for most graphics tasks and games. Upgrade to the NVIDIA 7600 GT with 256MB of video memory if you need additional performance in 3D and graphics-intensive applications such as multiplayer gaming or 3D animation development.
Your iMac also offers built-in support for attaching an external monitor using either of two modes. Extended Desktop mode allows you to work on two monitors at once for increased desktop real-estate (and increased productivity). Video mirroring is useful when presenting, so you can see the same image on a projector that you're seeing on your Apple display."
Supports 2GB Sticks of RAM. Offer one for +$750 - total of 3GB RAM probably could have 4. 667 DDR2 SDRAM. Base is 2 x 512 for 1GB included.
Congratulations on scooping MacRumors phatspider. :D
So loaded with 2.33GHz and 256MB Graphics is only $2374. Not bad. Plus third party RAM.
Maybe the big story here is that a base 1.83GHz with only 2MB L2 cache 17" model with a Combo drive, 512MB ram, Intel GMA 950 64MB IG is only $999. Now that's exciting. BUT for ony $200 more - $1199 - you get Superdrive, 1GB RAM, 2GHz w/4MB L2 cache, ATI Radeon X1600 graphics with 128MB GDDR3 memory, Bluetooth2.0, Apple Remote. That's a lot mroe stuff for only $200 more so they are making the $999 model very unattractive and low volume seller.
Ironically, the ATI Radeon X1600 graphics with 128MB GDDR3 memory that supports rotation on an external Dell monitor is not available on the 24" model. NVIDIA does not support Dell Rotation. So if you want to be able to rotate a Dell 24" monitor, you will have to buy the 20" iMac. Now that's crazy!
On sale, Dell 24" Monitors are only about $700. So for $2200 you can have a 20" iMac paired with a 24" External Rotatable Dell.

What has been asked for and what we are providing is a no fly zone, which seems like the appropriate amount of military intervention.

The US is enforcing a no-fly zone over The Republic of Congo? Or were you just dodging the question?

Now that the MBs have been updated and the US Apple Online Store is still down, I hope that the RAM prices have been cut. :rolleyes:
It sucks I gotta return my 4 day old MB for a new one but I would pay $140 more if it means getting a better MB that can last one more year (or more). :D

So, I guess that's when Apple will officially announce that leaked huge glass trackpad accessory then. Not sure why the iMac though, seems like it makes more sense to put iOS into the Macbook/MBA as an instant-on OS dual-booting with regular OS X.
