    I kinda understand why you love Mac's now...
  5. Please keep the spam updates rolling. They're giving me a good laugh.
  6. Here you go, the complete rundown of what Jobs introduced in San Fransisco MacWorld 2008:

    Time Capsule with 500GB - 1TB drives
    - 500GB to 1TB hard drives
    - Wireless connectivity

    iPhone / iTouch software development kit and updates
    - To be released in February
    - Mail, Stocks, Weather, Maps and Notes for iTouch
    - iPhone update free but iTouch costs $US20
    - I don't think there's any updates to iPod classic or video

    iTunes Movie Rental
    - US$2.99 and New Releases are $3.99
    - 1000 movies available to rent right now
    - 30 days to watch and 24 hours before expiring
    - Movies are DVD quality (640 x 480)???
    - iTunes 7.6 also announced
    - More DRM than ever before

    MacBook Air (as shown above)
    - 80GB 4200rpm IDE drive
    - Non-expandable memory
    - 64GB flash-memory an option
    - One USB2.0 port
    - No wireless broadband
    - Non-replaceable battery

    Apple TV
    - New user interface
    - HD support and Dolby 5.1
    - Can be used standalone
    - Improved photo sharing and Flickr

    One More Thing...
    - Didn't happen this year which is a first


    That MacBook Air interface looks exactly like my Ubuntu with the top bar and dock. Honestly, I find that laptop ugly. The earlier ones look nicer.
  7. The whole MacBook Air thing seems useless to me...it doesn't even have wireless broadband?!

    Mmmmm, a bit useless-sounding to me as well. So what's the "Air" reference mean? When it breaks can you can throw it through the air?

    You can't use it over-the-air either (so to speak in technical terms). And that reminds me too...most modems plug in via Ethernet (the long blue cable with the clip on the end, actually it can be yellow, grey, red - whatever colour amuses you) doesn't actually work in this new MacBook.



    So you're stuck using USB cords or a USB dongle - and remember, you've only got one USB port. Is Apple taking functionality out of a lot of their products to get prices down and not having to support as much? They don't even support Firewire (officially) anymore, which is a better standard than USB and UWB simply because it's faster and more reliable.

    Any difference in iTunes 7.6?
  9. I'm going to buy a new MP4 this week. Probably this one:



  10. I saw these before in a magazine. It's a 30GB Creative Vision or something, isn't it? Very nice - I would have probably got one if they were available.

    Well, this is the 16GB Zen..the Vision is a bit too expensive for a poor student like me

    But: you can upgrade it's memory with a SD-card, so I can upgrade it to 20 or 24 GB. A friend of mine got one and the 2,5 inch screen is just clear and bright as a blue sky.

    So, let's see if I got this right...you don't have wireless, you don't have ethernet, to connect to the internet you have to use the USB port of which you only have one...right? And then you haven't got a CD or DVD drive in it...

    And Casper, looking good, how much is that one?
