Good point.
I agree, but wireless doesn't nearly have the bandwidth necessary.
Think about it, Bluetooth is up to 3Mbps, Wireless is at 54Mbps, and your Firewire drive is 400Mbps.
And, while BT and WiFi can fluxuate, the data for hard-drives and optical drives must be constant in order to be useful. As cool as it would be streaming huge amounts of data is still beyond the current technology, even the WiMax standard is limited to around 100Mbps.
Apple's making a gamble with 802.11n, but they did the same thing with 802.11g and it worked rather well, some have stated that Apple's inclusion of 802.11g gear actually helped to force the issue.
as u say, wireless drives that are running a whole OS arent too useful yet (based on current tech). but if they're storing data that only needs to be retrieved every so often, itd be well worth it.

I fail to see how it is your business what car they drive whether it gets 95 mpg or 2 mpg and whether they have 7,000 kids or none.
Get over yourself.
If we applied your logic to every situation in the world, oh what a place it would be.

Yep. That is the subwoofer for the Harman Kardon Soundsticks. :)
AH! Thank you! Hahaha, it was kinda bugging me.. I was entranced by it hahaha. So how are you liking those? I've been researching them and trying to save up, but I've heard mixed things about them

Good catch. Guess I would have found it too if I had seen the original picture. Where can I find the original picture of that?
the image was in philA's post...the one I was replying to.

Been lurking for years (entertaining for sure), but I had to register because you clowns are missing the obvious on this one.
It is the infamous Mac iTablet (iPhone'esque only bigger), and the "in the air" part is... the keyboard.
It's a floating holographic projection type thing that you type on, therefore freeing up all screen real estate and no smudges.

It's acyually a typo - it's supposed to say something in the hair and Steve is going to pull a *insert preferred gadget* micro nano out from behind his ear.
In seriousness, a wireless Apple MediaCenter would be cool, put that in your front room with all your media on it then have your imac in your office, MacBook in the den, (and one in each kids room and your bedroom if Apple have their wicked way) everything would be 100% accessible all the time and if the MediaCenter was also the broadband router it would all be available remotely as well.
They could even make it look like the G4 Cube but in Aluminium and glass...mmmm

*sigh* No dedicated graphics. I know most of us would kill for a Geforce 7300/7400 Go build to order option.
Hopefully Intel and Apple can get some performance out of the GMA X3000.

It works great, "Dark Side" and "The Wall" play as intended.He-he... I'm testing "The Wall", too... :)
Did the "Gapless Determination" detect your The Wall album or did you, like me, have to set the Gapless Album tag yourself...?

Haven't taken a photo in ages, decided to shake off the rust by trying my hand at some more HDR shots. Processed this one in Photoshop, because for some reason Photomatix Pro and I haven't been getting along well lately.

If any of you have bought albums off iTunes with interact booklets I have discovered a problem - they don't work!!! - It plays it for a second as if it is a tune - it doesn't open it. arrgggh.

Agreed. That would have been with a bigger cache though. Is there much of a speed bump for the 1.83?
The cache alone doesn't explain that particular benchmark, as overall speed increase clock for clock is only 10%. I haven't seen the 1.83 tested so can't comment.

who cares how much crap is?
Is that a general use of the term "crap?" As in "all that crap?" Or is it specific to Windows as crap?" As in, "Vista is a singular pile of crap, left on my lawn by the next door neighbor's dog." :D
Sorry, I just woke up.:o

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...

Uh oh, now you're going to unleash the fury of the autism brigade. Asperger's isn't a personality disorder!

I think one of the greatest flaws in the wireless is that the only use I can see is between friends, I have a wireless MP3 Player already (called a macbook, it's a litttle smaller than the zune ;) ) and in a CS seminar someone bluetoothed me a song, now as a Maths student I don't know the Comp Sci people so I'd never spoken to before so I rejected it, I can't believe I'd do any different if I had a Zune, unless I knew them, in which case I might as well go round with my iPod to their house ;).

More great news. I wonder where the limit on this growth will be?
As great as Macs are, the price will still be a determining factor at the end of the day. I don't see it getting as popular as PCs are. Maybe 20%?
