The new promo is good with PowerBook and PowerMac, which (given their past track record) would mean no new update until the promo is over.
Dissappointed..........

Syracuse.net is offering an internet service bundle with a refurbished Mac. Very interesting idea. And at $200 it is in the right price range to appeal to a lot of PC users. They'll get a taste of Mac and decide if they want to buy a newer one.
Visibility is one of the key issues regarding Macs. This helps a lot.

I launched a new product at work and the guy who owned the domain with the same name as the product emailed me and asked me if I wanted to buy the domain. Said he was getting all kinds of traffic meant for me. Said he had a few competitors interested in buying it. I offered him $500. He said he was getting bids well over $10,000. Told him he should take it.
Emailed me 2 weeks later asking for $1000. Said I'd give him $100 and it was my final offer. Domain is still parked.

FF IV for SNES. It was the first FF I played and I found it enjoyable. The storyline was good, the difficulty was hard and the characters (Cecil was my favorite) were memorable.

No WiFi?
I'd take the XBox 360 Premium, + WiFi over an XBox 360 with a bigger hard drive, thanks.
I don't see why XBox 360 owners would be ticked, unless they *needed* HDMI (why does it matter that much? Component is still the same quality). It's just a hard drive upgrade. I'd still buy a Premium if I was buying one today.

If anyone's curious about my link, it actually does directly come from Apple's site. Apple, like many companies, contracts out the Investor Relations portion of their website to allow pros to handle all of the required information releases, etc. That's why the address is different...it comes from another site, but displays in a frame within Apple's own site as you navigate through it, integrating seamlessly so that you'd never know it's anything different unless you opened the frame directly (which I did in order to link to the anchor for that portion of the FAQ).

Not this again...THAT MEANS NOTHING! Its been like that since the new powermacs came out, almost two months ago. (sorry, this has been discussed many times before)
Logically, the next generation MUST have an 800 (or 867) MHZ lower price model TiBook and a 1MHZ high-end TiBook.
Not necessarily. The top end model could just be the 933 MHz model. :( And one can only guess on the prices.
Next iBook generation (maybe in January 2003?) must have 700 Mhz entry-version and 867 or 900 MHZ high-end.
Or...the high-end model could just be a 800 MHz model.
Sorry, I'm just bringing the expectations down a little. I haven't seen Apple yet give us the speed we want, so these are more realistic.
What are realistic predictions doing on a rumor site! :eek:

Up to that point it was a self-install. :p
So technically, Apple has sold Wintel machines before.

Now that Apple has took off the 15 inch display off thier site, when can we expect upgrades to the display line? I don't think we will have to wait till Macworld, I think we can expect them very soon. My thinking is that with new displays, Apple could boost sales for Christmas, making the displays more attractive looking, and of course cutting prices and releasing a 19 inch. This is what I think:
17 inch - $699
19 inch - $1199
23 inch - $3199
I think those prices are fare. What do you guys think?

Like I said, I am definately no processor guru but I was under the impression that the 7440 was to scale to 1GHz and, if that is true, it sounds like they have hit their limit and said "****, we had better push a little more out of this".
It would also explain why the 1.25 is taking so long to be shipped... they have hit the cutting edge of their technology and then pushed a little further therefore making the success rate of each wafer significantly hindered.
I would never dream of switching from Apple to a PC company but I would also not buy one of new machines given:
1) I do not NEED a new machine, I WANT a new machine; and
2) since I do not NEED a new machine, I might as well wait until something comes out in the Powermac range that makes me go "WOW".... just like I did when they first released the PMG3 and the same with the first PMG4.... I thought the QS case was really fancy too but a case alone can not knock me on my feet.

you guys are all talking like the G5 chip is here. Am I missing something or is all this just hopeful speculation and talk out your ^ss?
Until we actually see the damn thing, its really not even worth worrying about - how long has talk of the G5 been going on now anyway, years!?
I'd wait until IBM's little talk in October, that at least might shed some light one way or the other about what the next CPU will be.

if macosrumors.com is right about apple starting a new milling process for the titanium that will stop paint chips and scratches, and might even allow for lazer engraving, then it seems that strategically, from a production stand point, this would be the most opportune time to remodel if the type of production is changing anyway. It also makes sense that apple is making an extra push (added educational discounts which aren't typical for a regular speed bump) if they are remodeling the TiBook so that they can flush out stores of the old frame which would otherwise still be useful if only a speed bump was in store.

The main reason is that the designers don't have time to learn OS X and to figure out how to do things all over again...
This is true but it's also important for any creative to keep up with technical developments especially when the cutting edge becomes commonplace... I didn't force through an OS X transition at work until I had about a year of messing with it at home and had researched a number of issues. In fact, it was that experimenting that lead me to this very forum.
While it all comes out of my own time, I also see it as an investment in my career and it pays off. I would hate to be still wedded to OS9, a position I was in 2 years ago... InDesign is something I intend to spend a lot of time with over the next few months at home before trying to do a day's work with it.

I've got one I don't use anymore. It's been sitting around since July when I got the 360. I'll check it out tonight and make sure everything still works, if your interested.

Sounds like your not using X.2 or a New Mac.
Why do you waste your time on here?
Again, find a better deal than the New dual 867 on the Pc side, I'll buy it.
