ok apple needs to get off its but with this digital hub thing if its going to succeed, they need to have it up and running with major advertisements before the windows XP media center edition is off and running on media center peecees, again microsoft stealing the digital hub idea, if apple has the idea patented or copyrighted i say they sue the **** out of microslop!!

The big question for me:
Does it support middle-click yet?
If so I'll happily switch from Camino.

Let's just say you were right jefhatfield
The ibook would have the Radeon 9000 w/ 32mgs
and the Powerbook would have the radeon 9000 w/ 64mgs.
You see how their is like an invisiable wall between the 2 models

This brings back good memories of standing in the queue of Regents Street opening - we wll wanted iPod's or iPod Mini's at the time. Rumours in the queue were spreading like wildfire.
We all got Luckybags (well the first 250 ppl anyway) and we loved it. The atmosphere was friendly - StarBucks even offered free coffee!! :)
Good times. My brother and I are still on the Regents Street minisite :) I think we only got about 2hours sleep that night. very cold November I'll tell ya!
Were we the last store to offer the LuckyBags?

I'm pretty sure that drives are spinned down & their heads parked when a sleep command is issued...
at least that's the case with my BW/350, so i would expect the portables to behave the same.
plus, modern 2.5" hds are amazingly robust. most can handle operational shocks of some 100 to 200 g/ms
i doubt that travelling with sleeping laptops can cause any harm to the drives.

So this mean the drives are now down at a scale where they can be squeezed into a notebook form factor, in which case maybe seeing a SuperDrive in the next rev of the TiBooks isn�t to unrealistic. [/B]
I believe this Sony notebook is over 1.5 inches thick though...maybe even 1.8 inches thick. I could be wrong, but Sony, as well as other PC manufactuers have been making tankbooks... 8-9lbs, 15-16" Screens, HUGE footprint etc. Maybe it will still be hard to get a SuperDrive in a 1" thick notebook, but Apple will do it soon. By the way, the Sony is supposedly available in Japan now. I own a Sony and a Apple...and have no problem liking both.

For the PowerPC 970, it's a single core processor.
But for their POWER4 line, it will still remain a multicore processor.
Multicore is there for redundancy. It must be 99.9 repeating%, which would simply mean 100% as 99.9 repeating == 100, impossible for the servers to "die" thanks to the processor with servers using the POWER4 processors for mission critical stuff.
DaveGee: No I did not write the article.
Though, *please* explain *why* you say nope, nope, nope. Well spitting out those doesn't help. Justify the damn things so I can get some thoughts out of them.
Motherboard design + marketing + debugging + OS refinements, etc... all can contribute to the PowerPC 970's readiness for Apple.
It is slated for volume production mid but that still does not mean that the new Macs will come out immediately mid 2003. Maybe late 2003 (October-December-ish) or early 2004. Mid 2003 means nothing but in the middle 50% (2nd and 3rd quarter of the year) until they define a positive value (i.e. August 2003).

They offered the Watson guy a job and the Konfab guy used to work at Apple. As Daring Fireball reminded me, it was once called Desk Accessories. Plus, Arlo was warned they were going to do Dashboard. Same with SoundJam and Audion.
I'm sure they have, but I doubt they'd do it with software like this. At least, not without offering them a job first.
Interesting, I didn't know that. As for SoundJam, I think Apple bought the developers and went from there.

You'd think we'd have heard something by now if there was to be an announcement next week. I believe that someone said that they waited for th 20th for the 20th anniversary announcement - means we could have 30 long days ahead of us!

I found this one amazing Apple Fact out there on the web:
Bill Gates' house was partially designed using a Macintosh computer.
Google that, its true, I can't believe it! Why wasn't Windows good enough for him to make his own house, huh? Ok, sorry I just had to post that.
did you know apple used to use windows to design their motherboards? why weren't apple computers good enough? because the software only ran on windows! of course, now i don't know where the reference is.

Sharp unveils glass-based CPU prototype
[digitimes.com] 11:07
Sharp on October 22 unveiled a prototype of an 8-bit, 2.5MHz, glass-based central processing unit (CPU). Jointly working with Semiconductor Energy Laboratory (SEL), the company has successfully formed microprocessor circuitry on glass 15mm square and 1mm thick by employing its continuous grain silicon (CGS) technology.
Sharp hopes its invention will pave the way to development of ultra-thin sheet computers and TVs. The company expects to have some products, like games machines or mobile phones, equipped with this type of glass-based CPU, available by 2005.
Sharp currently uses CGS technology to produce system LCDs, LCD panels with built-in driver IC circuits.Shih-wei Kao

What you need to realize is there are very few people out there that are actually complaining about there machine not being fast enough. Most people just use there computer for email these are the people that will replace there PC in 3 or 4 years not because it's to slow but because it's dead. Apples market share is not as dependent on the Mhz as one would think. The people that really desire the speed at least most of them know the difference between Mhz and overall system speed. Trust me on this one I have several friends with PC's well exceeding 2Ghz and when they came over and watched me using my new Dual Ghz/DDR there jaws hit the floor and they said in unison that they had to have one. We need to quit complaining about the could have beens and the maybes and help sell the awesome computers that we have right now. The more we b*tch about how slow these computers are the more newbies and pc people will pick up on this and not knowing what they're talking about believe it.

[/B]I agreed with you. The new dual ghz is FAST, but the noise in the hot summer day. I can use my new Powermac as heater in the winter season. :)
This baby can heat up your room nice and warm!:) if you are looking for heater and something to compute, Apple dual is a machine to get! [/B]
Compared to every high end PC I've seen of late is not only louder but makes any Mac look like a refrigerator in comparing the amount of heat they exhaust.

I did say at the very earliest. Personally my open oppinion on it is that we will have the G4 until 2004 sometime.

from what i see on it's website tis a *nix programme... ie not windows.. ;)
it runs on windows too you just to have the GTK installed also. Its on the website. see my post to page 3 first post (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=115997&page=3&pp=25)
But as of yesterday morning I could no longer purchase songs this way, I can log in and browse, but it will not finalize the sale.
