I don't think thats an iMac. If I compare mine to that one, I see the chin is smaller on that, and the the screen is too close to the bottom of the "rectangle part".
G99, do you have a 17 inch model or a 20 inch model?
I agree. The computer seems too far down on its stand to be an iMac. I'm taking this from seeing my 20" iMac G5.

The newspaper article said they got 300,000 "hits" a day. Now, is that "hits" as in logged "hits" (if so, that's not much), or is it "hits" in terms of unique visitors?
Pardon my math; this is being rounded off and done in my head:
A 50k page view, and perhaps 2 pages per visitor would get 100k per visitor. 10 visitors is a meg of download. 1000 visitors would be a gig. 300,000 would be about 300 gigabytes of download for a day.
No wonder the box died. A full T-1 would handle about five 50k pages per second, right? That's 300 page views per minute, 18,000 page views per hour, so, full T-1 capacity of about 432,000 page views a day (around 225kbytes download per second).
If they got 300,000 "visitors" (hits), that'd probably bring it to its knees.
And not to mention all the "hackers" who smashed it up pretty bad. Hmmm. I wonder how all those hackers got through to smash things up?
The proof is in the taste of the pudding, folks. Those screen shots looked amazingly like Windows with Mac OSX laid on top.
If it works as advertised, I'd buy one. If it's any thing like Virtual PC (usually solid, but slooooooooow), then, it's G-o-o-d-b-y-e.

whatever company apple goes with after the G4, it certainly does not seem likely as soon as january...they just put out the DDR g4s

I don't think this bird is going to fly. $479 is only $20 less than the base PS3 which comes with the Blu Ray. For a difference of $20, I'd rather have the PS3 than the 120gb 360. The 360 has been on the market too long for something like this. Some current owners might buy one if their existing unit dies, but otherwise I think most of them would rather put the money towards a PS3. They will also be selling the 120gb drive separately, but for "under $200" it's not worth it. The only reason I can see them doing this is for the HDMI port, which is the only way for HDCP to work, which tells me that the Hi-Def content providers are ready to start implementing more difficult to break copy protection on their discs and current 360 owners with the HD-DVD drive won't be able to view the movies in HD resolution unless they upgrade to the new machine.

I really appreciate the tips & information from all of the different sources. After weighing things I'm most likely going to wait & follow oldMac's advice. As tempting as a brand new iBook design may be, I'd rather not run the risk of buying a new model that still has a bug or two to be worked out. And a discount just means getting more peripherals (firewire drive, SoundSticks, & Airport base station). We weren't planning on buying until mid November anyway, so there really shouldn't be a huge incovenience factor there. The ol' rev A iMac's still plugging along :D And I'm crossing my fingers a bit that there may even be a small speedbump in the iBook soon (which of course would also mean the next gen would be at least 6 months after that).
Thanks again, everyone. I look forward to chatting w/ more of y'all from time to time.

Long post, my apologies.
No apologies needed. It was well-said, and I agree with you completely.
The ongoing justification of bypassing or defeating the DRM, as though this is somehow a "moral" action is pathetic. Period.

Replace the hard drive with Smartcard or similar media of the same size. Hard disk spinning is the slowest part of the iPod and similar MP3 players. Of course that would make it prohibitively expensive if it had the same storage capacity.
128 MB Smartmedia down to $40
by that logic, it would cost $7000 to make an iPod based on solid state memory and has 20 GB capacity!

Hi all, just thought that I'd compile and run the tests on my G4/450 and PIII/733 for comparison. VERY interesting results. I had to change the i value from 20,000 down to 5,000 to save time...
In any event, the results are 15s for the G4/450 and, get this, 55s for the PIII/733.
Further compounding these results was the fact that the G4 was running setiathome with OSX's lousy priority scheduling (nice 20 usually takes up no less than 15% CPU) and the PIII was devoting 100% of it's processor resources to the task.
The best part about one-off, anecdotal evidense is that it is just that ;)
(gcc 2.95 - cygwin - on the PC, gcc 3.1 on OSX) I'll get the java version and give it a whirl...

I think dropping the price on the 17in would be good idead beacuse for $1000 more u can get an iMac, it just makes sense to lower the price. Recently in Consumer Repors it was rated the best 17in LCD- only downside was price. Apple really does not have much to lose, it would sell more units if it has a cheaper price.

Concerned about my adoptive dad's memory loss, I started folding in 2002. I know that it won't help him but it might help the suffering of those who are caretakers and sufferers in the future.
We know so little about biology, so if this little bit helps, all the better.
