And the Dell would still end up being around 1000$ cheaper.
what even a bigger kick in the head is they have the new E3 xeon's in their new T1600 mini workstation as an option.

I suppose the "True Video" iPod will be released at a special event along side the iPhone and PowerBook G5? :p
(Well, two out of the three would be nice.)
One more thing: Jobs presents Duke Nukem Forever! :D

I did a clean install and it did not fix the vibration and whine problem. A few suggested pulling your hard drive out and put it back in. I did that but it did not stop the vibration. I did some more research and found out if you place the laptop on the palm of you hand or place a napkin under the right front foot or lift the left side of the laptop 4-5 inches the vibration stops. As far as the whine I got this explanation from appledefects.com.
Idle Processor Noise
The MacBook is victim to the high pitched noise generated by the processor, known as the 'CPU whine'
This occurs only when the CPU is idle
Disabling the second core of the processor or running a program that prevents the processors from being idle will eliminate this sound (like PhotoBooth).
This has also been observed on the MacBook Pro, as well as other Core Duo based PC laptops.
Unlike the Macbook Pro, Apple has yet to recognize this issue.

Bill Gates is that you?
You sound like Bill Gates :D
I do? Wow, I don't make nearly the money he does. In fact, he probably makes what I make in a year in an hour or so.

The BBC are reporting the following:
"Looking forward, 2007 is likely to be one of the most exciting new product years in Apple's history," Mr Jobs added.
Either he's trying to put us off the scent, or it looks like there'll be nothing too exciting for the rest of the year.
Anything like all those "cool PPC products (yes, plural) in the pipeline" Steve mentioned when talking about the switch to Intel processors?

Worst...streaming....ever....
And this is the company that supposedly will be handed the crown for online movie rentals and downloads?
This happens year after year. The day of the keynote (and sometimes days/weeks afterward) always sees enormous demand for the stream but they never allocate enough to handle it. You think that they would have figured it out by now, and they better pretty damn quick if they expect to stream movie rentals - reliably that is.
I have a 3 megabit DSL connection and this is what I'm getting. They get an F. Pathetic.
Agreed. The streaming gets pathetic with every event. I have an 8MB broadband and the streaming feels more a 24KB stream. Still yet to get past intro before lock ups i guess i'll try later in 6 months.

What a terrible year for rumors.
The MacBook Pro refresh were released when everyone was asleep.
iPad 2 was released way under spec from what everyone was expecting.
Now, no iPhone released possibly this year.
2011: The year Apple wants just to end.

I really don't understand these programs where people smash up things for fun.
There's a program on Discovery as well which does these things.
Don't get it,just can not do that in this era anymore because its just wasting resources for nothing.
Here in Europe You won't find such utterly stupid programs.
Makes Me mad that Macrumors put this on their site.

Quick questions - How does folding with multiple GPU in a rig work? Do you use one GPU client and all the GPUs fold that one WU faster or do you use a GPU client for each card?
One client per card. So I will have 5 clients in total running. 4 GPU and 1 SMP.

Are people as outraged by this leak as I am? I can't believe it. He just stole Steve's thunder at a later secret event. This will end up costing Apple the element of surprise and the impact of a special Steve announcement. We've got to punish Lion's Gate somehow. We need to boycott all of their films and show that they cannot mess with Apple. The mothership is under attack! Who's with me? :mad:
If this is tongue-in-cheek, which I can only assume it is, then it's one of the funniest comments I've read on MacRumors :D Brilliant :D
If it's serious, then you have some serious issues :P

10.4.0 was terrible. Tiger, in general, has been one big yawn.
I couldn't disagree with you more.
10.1.0 was terrible. And several things about Tiger have been welcome additions, I particularly enjoy Dashboard (although I know some people hate it, and I know Yahoo Widget Engine is an option as well, but not as good/seamless), and especially Automator. Automator has been absolutely wonderful.
Not to mention that my older computer actually saw a noticable speed increase with Tiger vs. 10.3. Sure, it wasn't as revolutionary as OS X when it first came out, but to me it was the best 10.x release thus far.
Also, I didn't run into any bugs at 10.4.0 other than the left/right audio balance bug (which I believe stuck around til 10.4.3).

The price was also a concern for me since the original was similar to a mini game and basically a free thrown-in with the orange box. But they are calling it a "massive sequel" with a "larger set of devious test chambers." I ordered mine for Xbox360 just because that's what I'm use to. Also, I pre-ordered from Amazon because they gave a $5 discount and offered a $20 account credit (Xbox360 or PS3 only). The offer is actually still available today even though technically it's no longer a pre-order.

I am glad that at least in Europe this travesty daring to call itself beer will not be allowed to sully the name of Budweis. The true, real Budweiser (Budweiser Budvar Brewery) is actually a very tasty Lager unlike that deer piss Anheuser Busch sells in the US, which under the rules of the bavarian purity manifest isn't even beer at all.
Awesome.
Cheers,
Ahmed

Nice... (sarcasm)
I don't find nose, eyebrow, tongue, lip, neck, nipple, etc piercing at all attractive. Also tattoos are horrendous. If your going to get one put it where no one can see it.
At least its not as bad as these weirdos like this guy:

I watched a show about him on Discovery Health. He's one messed up guy. He has had teeth implants, cheek implants, etc.
I think there is nothing wrong with him. He's living his life the way he feels most comfortable. Iwould like to meet him. I would also like to meet The Enigma and all the others.

I had heard that they were no longer doing the commercials for exactly this reason, people liked the PC guy and felt bad for him. Guess I heard wrong.

The update does NOT install on an iPhone 3G !!
So why is it Apple can say it's OK to leave this tracking "bug" on my iPhone 3G running iOS 4.2.1, and only fix the iPhone 3GS and 4?
People still have the 3G under contract and they are left with a deliberate bug that Apple refuses to fix.
Someone needs to threaten Apple with a class action lawsuit.

unlucky. like most people have said you should have really asked for permission. my school and college were fine with me bringing in mine.
Your college has no say in the matter.
As for high school. Its up to the school to secure their network. Not allowing portable computers for high school students is just stupid. I would bring your parents to school and take the matter up with the principal. If your parents are behind your use of the computer at school to do homework, that should extact pressure on the principal to justify the schools position more fully to the parents.
I would have said no to that IT tech forcing the issue to the principal office.
So they should make an exception for you because you weren't doing anything and some teachers didn't care? Also, if it is "every other teacher", it is not just the IT guy that has a problem with it. The rules are in place for a reason and he has every right to enforce it. Ignorance of the rules is no exception. This is the way life is; a good lesson learned here.
Is this college or high school? (My guess is high school)
Also, did you get it back or get instructions as to when/how you would get it back?
That does not sound like a rule. I would force the issue to the principal and bring in your parents and even supporting teachers.

I benefit when Google tracks cell phones on the streets surrounding my location to provide me with reasonably accurate traffic conditions. I can then plan my route accordingly.
I doubt AT&T would do this, but if they took the real time data from this App and mapped it to a Google map, I could know when I should start an important call or begin a download of a new song or App. Over time, I could even see changes as AT&T addresses the most common problem areas.
The downside would be having to endure the Verizon TV ads, "Problematic 3G coverage? there's a Map for that" until they go away.
Think I'll just sit tight for iPhone 4GS for LTE.

I can. The iPod halo doesn't work without going hand in hand with the Apple Stores. If people are buying their iPods from shops that don't stock Macs, their opinions on Macs never change. If they buy an iPod from an Apple Store and see Macs all around doing everything their Windows computer can do and more, they become more open to buying a Mac next time a computer purchase comes round.
Apple need to open more international Stores if they want the worldwide share to increase.
I agree with this statement. It would be interesting to see the percentages in countries that have an Apple Store as opposed to those that don't.
I think another factor could be that a lot of new computers are being bought in China and India which are very cost concious cause the standard of living is still pretty low. I would bet Apple's share in these markets is under 1%.
