You mean we may finally be able to buy a current gen video card at a comparable price to their windows counterparts?! Am I dreaming? I must be dreaming.. right?

Would be nice:) IDK, the more I think about owning a Pro...Id be better off making a monster hackintosh on 1155 mATX platform (i7 2600k), HD 6970, SSD...the works. In an all aluminum Lian Li case. Now thats my kind of Pro;)

I believe Nokia and Microsoft have some sort of alliance.

Not quite. Yes, Nokia did announce a while ago that they will support MS's mobile-email-thingy. But that's it. Other than that, the two are more or less mortal enemies.

Sold my late 2009 iMac yesterday in anticipation of the iMac refresh so this is positive news for me. However, I may hold off until the end of May and hopefully pick myself up an iPod Touch using my education discount and the iPod Rebate Back-To-School Promo (that's if Apple are true to form and run this promo again).

Regarding GPU - prepare to be disappointed as Apple always seem to under deliver in this respect with regards to the iMac - form over performance dictates this i'm afraid. Has anyone considered they may even stick with the current iMac GPU offering - disappointing I know but still possible. If we see an upgrade (and I sincerely hope we do) I guess we're, at best, looking at a 6950 which I'd be happy with, I guess a very unlikely outside chance would be the 6970 (Pipe dream me thinks)?

I'd welcome HellHammer's thoughts on this as he generally has a well informed perspective on these things.

Got my switcheasy colors case. It's awesome. I love having all the ports connected :D

They are just doing it for publicity I bet...

I've only had one dropped call with my iPhone 4 since it came out... Way better than my 3GS.

So who else apart from me has bought one? :D

We hope, Jobs said - many different iOS products later this year...

The GPU alone in this revision will determine whether I'm buying an iMac or building a PC. If the GPU is even close to competitive in the gaming dept. for a little while, then I'm in.

+1 with the exception of waiting (yet longer) for a mac pro instead of a PC. I'm not a gamer but I would like a decent graphics card for 3D apps.

If you buy a truck or SUV because you want to tow or haul, drive offroad or use it for work, fine. If you bought it because you're being "protective", then, yes, that is a selfish motivation.

Larger SUV's and trucks often do suffer fewer driver fatalities, so in some ways they are safer (in the US), but that is because they force smaller vehicles to absorb most of the impact during a crash. Also, the rollover risk remains high, so that the "protection" you are buying is pretty conditional and may come at the expense of other people's lives.

In addition, I should point out that minivans are safer than SUVs, so if you want your family safe, buy a minivan. Finally, it's a proven fact that pickups are less safe than cars, period.

If you want to debate it further I suggest we start another thread though, so we can keep this one on-topic.

Props if anyone knows who used that bag.

No clue but could you please tell me where to purchase it? Its exactly what Im looking for!

Seeing as how we don't know the specs of the machine let alone the price point, no, no one will be able to tell you the benefits of this product.

IMHO, I dislike it. I don't like the guy's voice which sounds phony and overly-reverential. Once you call something you make magical it automatically sucks any magic it may have had out. And the ad is saccharine to me. I generally hate Apple ads but enjoy their products.

I know that's your opinion but you really are missing the whole point of the Ad.

It's like critiquing the way a piece of art looks based on the frame it's in and not the art itself.

I thought Ihnatko's take on the Zune was particularly amusing:

Using your example, couldn't they do that with the GPS tech in most fones today simply by saving your location info in a server side database? I wouldn't put anything pass these companies and govt today.

you can turn off the GPS in a phone and most people assume that when you do it stops tracking you yet as it already been shown it just starts storing info base the cell towers.

I just do not like the fact you can not opt out of it. It just feels wrong to me.

You sure? The DP2 installer is 3.7GB vs. 3.35GB of DP1.

Leopard requires 9GB, Snow Leopard requires 5GB, and now Lion is under 4GB?

Oh dear chaps, mine looks almost feeble compared to your big American monster cars!

I think iPod and Mac sales volume was towards the high end of the range of analysts' predictions. iPod and Mac sales volume is a more important indicator than revenue, I think.

I hope that this is all true because i plan on picking up a new intelimac or mini.

Congrats for 5 mio! Our output has dropped a bit, we need to find some bigadv crunchers. Our SMP crunchers are going to take a hit up to 30% also...

"Amazon" is a generic term and should not be used for a store name.

Many have called for the demise of Apple, but it is still going strong. Anyone that talks against Apple does it at their peril.

Count me in there.
Apple have become Big Brother and Big Bully lately.
In the past they trod more lightly.

Oh give me a break! Maybe it's because all you read are the headlines which focus on Apple. Apple has no more lawsuits than any other company out there, not to mention the private lawsuits against Apple for dumb ass stuff like 'tracking', antennas, batteries, etc. etc. etc.....

Truth, as ever, is the first casualty of war, and nobody seems to care as long as they can fabricate a good narrative.

Never have I seen worse reporting than on CBS when they went on for several minutes about how many bombs we're dropping over there, how Tripoli is in a state of warfare, etc. "And now let's cut to [name] who is actually in Tripoli:"

"I've heard nothing. It's been total silence here. Definitely no bombs going off..?"
