edespiritu, I would max out the Ram. You use applications that under OS 9 were more content with just 256MB of Ram. OS X alone required 128 MB which leaves little to Photoshop etc. I would also suggest purchasing a ATI Radeon 7000 or 8000 graphics card for your macs. They have more onboard...

You can manage your songs with any number of computers. You can choose to manage playlists manually in iTunes which allows you to copy audio files between computers. You can then also add different playlists from different computers. When my iPod wasn't being recognized by iTunes anymore I used...

It's been on the Apple site for a few months.... am looking forward to this one.... G

I've said it on this site a dozen times and the article at the beginning of thos thread confirms this - what Apple is doing ins't INNOVATION. I was absolutely disappointed with this years MacWorld keynote speech. The software introductions aren't what will keep Apple in business. The 17" inches...

BIG FAN of the Knightrider light idea... Dr. Bott.. something you can do? G

My suggestions: ram is so darn cheap these days just max your machine out. And then have in mind: an 8MB graphics card will only get you so far. G

Stridder, here is where I'm coming from: I have been a Powerbook owner since the Duos came out and have been on board with pretty much every new generation. The exception were the 400Mhz Powerbook (Wallstreet) and now the endless mini revisions of the Tibooks. I own a 667Mhz TiBook DVI and my...

The $499 would be fine if it came with a base model iPod. This way it's a pretty freaking expensive remote control (that keeps youwarm).

I agree. I too was amazed at the flawlessness of the broadcast. I was watching it sitting on my sofa with my Tibook and Wifi. I even thought the video quality was rather nice even when doubling the size. However, I wouldn't have been able to watch it had it not been for a friend who told me to...

I'm with Toast. I posted my disappointed about Apple last month (Losing Faith in Apple). My opinion really hasn't changed. This MacWorld brought no innovation to the table. A 17" giant on my lap can hardly be considered innovation. Did you hear the sighs when Steve showed the Jacket? Is he on...

Have you guys tried any Flash movie? You can watch EACH frame individually it's that slow. G

Not impressed!!! Flash is even slower than in IE and the auto window size doesn't work. It also doesn't ask to keep password for you. Nice try, but I would like to see Chimera advance some more.... G

Haven't noticed any improvement in speed on my Tibook 667 DVI. In general, this update although 50 MB big doesn not clearly solve any problems. Pretty big just for changing button graphics, don't you think? G

Glad to hear that it's just not me experiencing this problem. I don't know how often I have tried to connect to an FTP site via Apple-K. I always entered the username and password information correctly but I STILL can't access any of my files. How can something simple be sooooo difficult for...

Just updated to VPC 6.0 after downloading 10.2.3. Speed increase is significant using Windows XP. Now I feel it's actually usable on my TiBook 667 DVI. G

Hmmm... once again the topic got off track. Not sure how words like "democracy" or "Nazi" made it in here. In any event, I think the thread is one of the first that has allowed some concern around Apple to surface - without too much bashing and with many quality comments. I take away from...

Perhaps this discussion has gotten a bit off track so let me try to get back to the core. I didn't try to provoke the age-old debate on PC vs. Mac. We are all past that. What I really wanted to express is my concern for Apple's future. When Apple announced the first iMac in 1998 (or was it...

I am a die-hard Apple fan and even worked for Apple and some point in the late 90s. I grew up with LCII's, Performas and even until today have bought into just about every generation of Powerbooks Apple has released. However, my passion and fascination with Apple products is starting to fade...

I worked with Quark for years at a major publishing house in Germany and met with marketing and product management personell from Quark over the years. Their biggest challenge - even before InDesign came out - was to upgrade people to a new version of their own Software let alone to compete...

Seems like .mac IMAP is working again through mail.app as of 11:50 am Eastern Time. Hope this isn't gonna hurt the "My mac never crashes" message but it's pretty embarassing. Not even my mom and pop ISP has had that long of an outage and especially not on a Monday morning. G
