are you people making this all this fuss over C2D MB's coming out? or is there more expected from the update....like the true ipod video? i dont see how a C2D MB could bring so much excitement....there's not THAT much difference in performance.
Well, people have been waiting for the update to get a MacBook, so that's where most of the excitement is coming from I guess. But as others said, we don't know what else they might bring in the bag.

Ive never read so much ignorance and thinly veiled racism in one thread. Some of you nobs should be ashamed of yourselves.
Of course people will turn to crime in poor areas with little or no positive opportunities.
Genetic? Dont make me sick.

Regardless of your musical tastes, why anyone who proclaims to care about Apple's success would begrudge them expanding their catalogue to include one of the most influential bands of the 20th century... well, it's a complete mystery to me.
That's not quite it. People were annoyed at the fact that the event was so hyped, not that it was somehow a "bad" thing.

This is America, and that person DOES NOT NEED TO JUSTIFY HERSELF TO YOU! If that V10 Excursion ever gets in an accident with your "95+ MPG" car, it will illustrate one very good reason to drive an Excursion, and you will not survive. Even with a five star crash rating, these newer lighter cars are death traps when fitted against large SUVs, these crash ratings do not take into account the advantage created by additional weight. Also, if your considering CO2 as "pollution", are you aware of the fact that only 0.28% of all greenhouse gasses are from human activity ? Not 28%, but 0.28%, the rest is mainly water vapor. With all of the resources that the world is throwing at reducing CO2 emissions we could actually do something useful instead like end world hunger. What we are doing to reduce CO2 is kind of like pissing into the ocean to warm it up, maybe it makes you better but it will not work. Enjoy that "95MPG" golf cart you drive.
Everything has to start some where. I was nearly t-boned by a SUV today that thought they were better than the rest of us... they were running very much running a red light. Get your head out of the sand as to the new world order...
Here in America bigger does not mean better in the end...

I agree 100% with your assessment. I am certain that Apple will be modifying the Finder in the final release of Leopard (They have in every other major OS X release), and I fully expect to see that at a major demo at MWSF 07. I feel that's really where we're going to see Leopard, and hopefully by then, Vista will have gone GM, but who knows...
I don't see how adjusting the UI at the last minute could be any sort of OK. Do you really want developers using the Tiger finder for the next 7 months, and then all of the sudden Apple goes BAM (Emeril Style) and puts in a brand new finder.
I want those developers to be able to integrate the finder with their apps. If all Apple is doing is adjusting some colors or icons or something, then we shouldn't be excited about the new finder in the first place. But if Apple is going to do some major revamping, shame on them for keeping it a secret.
People need time to work with it and find all the kinks, especially if it is dramatically different from Tiger.

If they build it from scratch, they could probably design the place with working conditions that don't make people as suicidal (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1104449&referrerid=51132).
The only reason suicide rates spiked was because of this policy regarding suicides that involved reimbursing the families for their loss if their loved one suicided at foxconn, if i remember correctly. That policy doesn't exist anymore AFAIK. People were just trying to provide for their families, even in death.

It has been a year an a half or more since the 60GB iPod was released and over a year since we've been hearing about an 80GB version. I know i am in the minority who wants a larger one. Me for music only but I assume you video people will need more memory eventually anyway. Hey how about a 100GB version! I never jumped to the iPod video since they never expanded it's memory...:rolleyes:
have you all checked how many employees does wal mart have?
about a gazilion.
if they don;t get it their way then they push the government nad comitees to put the presure on certain issues concering the one they want to hurt.
imagine let's say that wal mat due to this apple deal with all studios will make a statemnet saying we lost 10% or our revenues so we will lay off 10% of our employess to cover for the losses.!!
now what do you do in this case?
it's not a free world after all....
not for those who have the power !

Not being an American, I won't wade into Constitutional issues but I wish our PM would have stayed out of this as well. It's a very dangerous precedent to meddle in another nation's civil war. Perhaps if the West had stopped playing nurse maid to these dictators in the past the problem wouldn't exist.
I highly doubt 4.4 will be a CMDA only version. If you think about it, the 4.3.1 update hits currently i'm guessing around 90% of iPhone 4. So obviously there is more rush to get 90% of iPhone 4s updated compared to 5%.
I would think Apple prefer to keep their GSM model supported more. Because of the hugely larger user base.

Then maybe spammers will realize that this is a whole new fertile ground for their sludge. So you'll be walking down the street and suddenly a box will pop up over your interface that says "User "*BUY CHEAP VIAGRA*" wants to send you the song "ONLY 5 DOLLARS PER BOTTLE!!!" by "WWW.WE-R-SPAM.COM" Do you want to accept?"
Actually, the message will say "USER "bUy cH3aP V!@gr@" wants to send you the song "oNLY $5 DLRS per b ottl e!!!" Do you want to accept?"
But you had the right idea. :D

You know, If I had to guess, I'd say that most folks aren't so upset about submitting their apps as they are upset about the somewhat seemingly arbitrariness in what get's approved, and what doesn't and how long it takes, the vagueness of many of the reasons for declining an app, etc.
How long has the shipping wait been 3-5 days on the Black MacBooks on the Australian store? Every time I have looked they've all been "within 24hrs"?
Only a few days I think. I've been watching it for a while.
The same guy I was talking too (at NextByte) told me that they had no Macbook deliveries for over a week, which they had never seen.
He also told me he'd heard that there will be a 15 inch MacBook Pro!!!
He's been working there for a while. Actually spent time talking me out of buying a MacBook the other day?!

When you're married, it's a partnership, and it's no longer a case of "your money" and "her money", but a case of "OUR" money. Once responsibilities are out the way, then personal purchases can be looked at, but unless you're in a job where you have a LOT of disposable income far in excess of what's required to pay the mortgage and many bills, then yes it's only right you make sure you have the money to go out and buy a gadget which, most of the time, only you will use.
I'm fortunate that my wife enjoys using technology, but I still wouldn't go out on payday and just buy a new gadget without at least letting her know I was doing it, and if I spend money on something, it's only fair she does the same ... which means for whatever you spend, you need to double it and again it's only after looking at bills and responsibilities that you can do so.
Good post man. :) You obviously have your priorities straight.

Well, don't put back your camera just yet. If I recall it correct, you never set any time limit when you made your bold statement about Conroe in iMac. My guess is that Conroe eventually will arrive in iMacs...and when it does... we do (sort of) look forward to your promised homemovie. :D

I did blow it with saying that Wodcrests would not go into MP's, though. :(

I'm not blindly supporting Apple, I'm very well informed in many facets of harware and OS decision making. Based on that, I've chosen to promote Apple to my small and mid-size business clients. I have crates of research and papers I've read to come to this conclusion.

That wasn't actually directed towards you.
"I'm intelligent enough to know that Apple does not have the market cap to fully control their chip evolution, and you, it seems, are not."
There you go.
Good point. You win. However, I just went back and re-read this whole thread, and while I have made one insult (sorry), you've made a rash of them.
"No, but you suggested that we should rally around some cause (design chips, boycott Apple, etc.) and vocalize. "
Where did i say we should design chips or boycott Apple? Now you're just liying and it's no wonder you have come to your conclusions, considering you fabricate things like this.

Matte has never been an option in the MacBook -- that died with the iBook.
You can still choose beween matte and glossy in the MacBook Pro.
