I agree that my missing FW port as someone who uses FW drives and Target Disk Mode a lot is my biggest gripe.
Well, I can't really complain about the lack of FW because I knew it didn't have it when I chose to buy it. It's the limitations they didn't make obvious that bother me, like Bootcamp.
But thanks for sharing the "Collectors Edition" title. I like that and I'll be using it from now on.

I'd get the New Yorker in a minute if it was even remotely priced the way it would be for a print subscription. I'd pay even more--due to the convenience factor, but not $5 an issue.
The demand is not there because their prices are unrealistic.

this doesn't contradict loop insight at all.
they said no iPhone 5 at WWDC. This is saying iPhone 5 is coming shortly after WWDC.

I could be 100% wrong but didn't Loop Insight quote the source as saying that they weren't stupid and they wouldn't be releasing a new iPhone so soon after the release of the Verizon iPhone?
EDIT: I can't find it, so maybe I am nuts.

I like that I see only one GUI in the various apps in the screenshots. One feature I'd love to see is more efficient/complete core control and improved Rosetta and Bootcamp performance.

The White iPad 2 is pure butter. Id love to see the iP5 have a similar design (back to the Aluminum backing)
I hate butter. Probably the white iPad, too. A coworker has one, it looks....weird. White and silver/aluminum/metal color combinations never thrilled me, like my 2 older Mac Minis.

I have a dumb question.
Why do Dropbox, Amazon, and possibly iTunes not allow video streaming from the cloud? It seems like they all only offer music.

My thought's as well.
IMO they should have waited untill the lauch of the iPhone 5.
why? my old phone is dying, and i dont know if it will last 6 more months. since i like choices i am happy that i can choose the colour if i decide to buy a iphone 4 by then.
its not like the iphone 4 is old. its still the latest and best iphone. what is the problem some people here have? if you buy your iphone a month after it has been released you are a kind of jerk?? :confused: wake up, this is not how the rest of the people are buying their stuff. they buy it when they need it. :rolleyes:
oh well, why am i replying at all, this is just like feeding the trolls... :p

And you must be totally void of imagination and creative intelligence. Perhaps that is one of the reasons why you hate apple.
Let me guess your an engineer type - who loves specs and rarely has a unique thought of your own.
My guess is "your" not....;)

Doubtful those numbers are accurate, willing to bet it's more a marketing stunt at this point considering they could price it much higher and sell all this years units without a problem.. With potential profits like this, it's only a matter of time before GM heads down the wrong road, again. Makes no sense really.
Rattner is currently the subject of legal proceedings and despite the questionable ethics and behavior of doing so he wrote the following: �At least in the early years, each Volt would cost around $40,000 to manufacture (development costs not included).�
Rattner admitted in an interview with the New York Times that he �didn�t know the precise number,� but agreed that despite the costs, on developing the Volt GM was �right to do it,� to silence critics �who�ve said for many years that the company was behind the curve.�
GM spokesperson Rob Peterson would of course not confirm these values, though GM has a history of getting small or no margins on small cars. Even the famous high volume Chevrolet Cavalier was known to be sold at loss. �We haven�t released any numbers related to costs,� said Peterson. �The importance of the Volt is more than a single profit-and-loss statement.� Indeed.
Rattner agrees the introduction of EVs are important, but doubts any automaker is in a position to profit on them in the early years. �E.V.�s are everybody�s latest fantasy,� he said. �No doubt they are important and they are real, but they won�t have an impact on profitability and sales for the foreseeable future.�
Rattner also thinks the idea of start-ups like Tesla rising up and competing successfully with major automakers is a bit far-fetched. �E.V. markets will be dominated by the existing companies,� he said. �They have the scaled operations and the dealer networks. The idea that a bunch of E.V. companies will come along and G.M. and Ford will go out of business is kind of crazy.�gm-colt.com (http://gm-volt.com/2010/11/26/report-each-volt-costs-40000-to-build/)

Hopefully the premium will come down in price now, if not at retail, then at least second hand as a flood of old 360's come onto the ebay and from the people who simply must have the best of everything.
Is there anyone who's actually struggled with the current size hard drive? Will I have any use for such a huge hard drive if I don't actually use it as a media centre?
Anyway, I much prefer the white 360. Though neither are as ugly as the PS3.

Showing how Android is surging ahead is meant to show which OS is winning, but often (as is the case with this report, I believe) they are only looking at phone sales. Because iOS runs on iPads and iPods, Apple's share is higher. I wish we could get more concrete evidence on this.

He didn't say that the Mac Mini was "over priced" just that it was "expansive" there is a difference.
The Mac Mini is not expansive, to have an expandable Mac the suits in Apple decides that you are a "pro" user and adjusts the pricing of your MacOS according... oh, I was referring to the flat 20% margins they have on every single product in their line.
Why does MacOS costs so much more on a Powermac than on a Mini? Beats me! :rolleyes:
...only if Apple wanted to go AFTER that market segment... to date they haven't (and for many good reasons).
Indeed, why sell a $399 Mac for what it is worth when you can sell it for $799? :rolleyes:
What :confused: :confused: :confused:
Name 1 corporation that is not greedy...
And non-profits are not allowed...;)
It is a good deal of greed that separates those who are happy to buy something at $c and sell it at $c + $p from those who decides it is not even worth their while unless $p = 20% * $p...

I think this law is a Good Thing. It's obvious that a certain subset of Muslims are going to have to dragged into the modern age and it's gotta start somewhere.
Why should anybody be "dragged into the modern age" simply over how they dress?
Don't you value personal freedom?
