Sold... 299 dollars for that? Amazing.
That's my thought exactly. This is what I wanted FC to be all along. I found myself going back to iMovie time and time again because I was so sick of dealing with FC's quirks. This is going to make pro editing a pleasure.

2: The masses. They don't care about the Big Club because they are too busy watching cheap TV-entertainment while consuming their microwaved dinners - just a modern version of the classical "bread and circus".

I however disagree with your opinion of the USA
Disagree all you want. Its a well known fact that the USA has been intervening all over the world and setting up friendly governments (to USA interests) for over five decades now.

If true, that will probably make 10.5.0 worse off than 10.4.0 was, and we all know how bad 10.4.0 was... :rolleyes:

On the MacBook Pros the graphics connection was downgraded from PCIe x16 to PCIe x8 to get PCIe lanes for the TBolt controller.
Have the teardowns or other info shown whether that's the case for the Imacs?

New York – A lawless atmosphere often follows natural disasters. How has Japan managed to maintain order in the aftermath of last week's earthquake and tsunami?
The chaos and theft that have followed many earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis have been noticeably absent in the wake of Japan's 8.9-magnitude quake. Instead, people have formed long, orderly lines outside grocery stores, where employees try to fairly distribute limited supplies of food and water. "Looting simply does not take place in Japan," says Gregory Pflugfelder, an expert in Japanese culture at Columbia University, as quoted by CNN. "I'm not even sure if there's a word for it that is as clear in its implications as when we hear 'looting.'" How has Japan managed to avoid this common after-effect of disaster? (Watch an Al Jazeera report about the wreckage)
Discipline, discipline, discipline: "The Japanese are now reaping the fruits of having been taught, and drilled in, discipline and resilience since childhood," says Federico D. Pasqual Jr. at The Philippine Star. In grade school, lunch is free, but often "spartan," and kids learn to expect and deal with lean times. This unfathomable calamity is one of those times, and "the instilling of that value or attitude seems to be paying off."
"Japanese discipline rules despite disaster"
The Japanese are no strangers to hardship: The easy answer is that the "legendary politeness" of the Japanese people is simply shining through, says Thomas Lifson at The American Thinker, but that's only part of what's happening. Japanese society has been honed over generations into a system "capable of ensuring order and good behavior." The country's "vast reservoir of social strength" carried it out of "the devastation of World War II," and, compared to that, "even the massive problems currently afflicting it" are "relatively small."
"Why the Japanese aren't looting"
Japan isn't superior, just different: Japanese people are "taught that conformity and consensus are virtues," says James Picht at The Washington Times. To Americans, who prize individualism, "those virtues sound almost offensive." In normal times, "concerns about appearance and obligation" may be stifling, but in adversity they may be what trumps "the urge to smash and grab." Japanese culture isn't "superior," it's just "well suited to maintaining public order immediately after a major disaster."yahoo news (http://news.yahoo.com/s/theweek/213154;_ylt=Aier3ZBx0et3Y1K_YS0GBTFvaA8F;_ylu=X3oDMTE3N240aWVoBHBvcwM4BHNlYwN5bl90b21ic3RvbmUEc2xrA2 Z1bGxuYnNwc3Rvcg--)

Bah. I can't even be bothered to read to the end of the thread about this nonsense. What's next, a press release announcing the danger of not securing your iPod headphones? Just think, if someone held on to the end of your headphone cable they could use it to follow you from several feet away EVEN IN THE DARK :eek:
lol nobody's safe anymore!!!:eek: :p

I have a feeling this exercise by AT&T Mobility is a lot like pushing the "Cross-the-Street" button on New York City stoplights. i.e. Makes you think your helping, but in reality having no effect on anything! :)

I wonder if they will allow the free education ipod touch with the 11" MBA this summer?
i'm hoping so. i think the deal has always applied to the $999 white macbook. (correct me if i'm wrong.)
then again, the ipod touch went up in price last year. i've wondered whether they might change it to "free ipod nano" or something. hope not.
we'll see.

Outside the US, iOS is bleeding bad.

Netflix advantages:
Netflix disadvantages:
- only available in USA and Canada (extremely limited selection in Canada)
Apple advantages:
- could be launched in a lot of countries (probably everywhere there currently is an iTunes Store)
- already have a lot of iTunes Store user accounts worldwide
While it would be nice for folks overseas to have access to this service, it is unlikely to affect US users due to copyright issues (ie if I as a US user travel to Europe I probably wouldn't be able to access my Apple movie account there and stream content).
Apple disadvantages:
- would probably require an Apple-made device to access the content (bonus: no Silverlight installation required on Mac), as I don't see Apple making an app for the Xbox360, PS3, Wii and other set-top boxes (they'd rather sell you an :apple:TV)
- their servers are located in the USA, so I don't know if it's enough to serve streaming media worldwide. Do they currently have servers in other countries for the international iTunes Stores?
Technical issues aside, however, it all boils down to selection and price.
Unless they keep their pricing structure very similar to Netflix they will have a tough time with it. Especially if the service requires their hardware. Plus Netflix has such a great reach into the market with their app, and as you noted I don't see Apple designing an app to work with other hardware (and siphon sales from the :apple:TV).

The iPhone is groundbreaking don't get me wrong here I am so excited in anticipation for this to be released. On the other hand I was hugely let down by no other interesting releases, including iLife 07'!
What is this iTV nonsense? Microsoft's Xbox 360 has just been announced with a rumored better price per feature model than this thing. Already beaten to the punch Jobs threw this offstage as quickly as possible to actually impress us. Then nothing. No iLife, no new Macbook Pro case design, no official Tablet, no nothing.
Also why only Cingular? I have T-Mobile and they have much better coverage in my area! Bleh now I have to wait 3 years before I can actually use this much heralded tech.

...Coupled with my wimax wifi router which has an 8 hour battery, I can work pretty much anywhere and be connected whenever I need....
What company wimax router do you use and what's the monthly fee?
I'm trying to decide on a 3G sim for my iPad or a wimax router for my laptops and iPod touch with in the next month so any info you could give would be appreciated.

Bad move...
Obviously, there is huge demand for cheaper Macs. Cheap doesn't equal bad!
Mac minis should start at $399
iMacs should start at $899
MacBooks should start at $799
MacBook Pros should start at $1499
Mac Pros should start at $1499
There is no reason this wouldn't work.
Yes. Absolutly. I still hear the argument that Macs are expensive. For example my brother needed a new computer. Even the lowest price Apple computer would cost something like $700. His budget was $250. He was able to buy a generic 2Ghz Celeron mini tower. The $250 system was fast enough for normal email and web browsing. He didn't say that the Mac Mini was "over priced" just that it was "expansive" there is a difference.
Apple simply ignores the low end and this is what most people buy.
They do really need a $399 entry level machine.

As it still has a second socket, it must use Xeon 5000-series CPUs. The CPU in the 3797$ SP configuration costs 1663$ alone, whereas the CPU in 2499$ Mac Pro costs 294$.
The Dell CPU costs about $800.
Why is it so damn hard to get it that Mac Pro is overpriced compared to e.g. Dell's offerings?! :confused:
But it's a Dell. :eek:

I guess the question is are there enough iPhones out and about to provide good traffic data?
I mean will there be enough iPhone 3GS/4/(whaever the new version is called), will the traffic information be sent in the background even if I never use the built in Apple application?
Oh man, you have no idea! On the navigation map while driving, you see icons of other WAZE users around you, there are hundreds all around the map. I had so many occasions where I would stop at a traffic light and see so many icons around me, look to the sides and see other WAZE users with the app running in their car. :)
