I am seriously thinking of getting out of Windowsworld and the new 24" iMac looks great!:D
From the listed specs this will really rock.
Anybody have advice on whether I should wait for Leopard to come out or not?
Get one if you need it now.
Bottomline is, when Leopard comes out, there will a cheaper/better Mac. But that's just the way it is with technology.

Is that not what they are practically doing with the uh....urm...i dunno...iPHONE? Plus, the original poster only mentioned AT&T, they didnt talk about it going international.
uh...urm...NO.
The iPhone is released in a few select countries...FOUR to be exact. We are here talking about a computer that is supposed to be released in WAY more than 4 countries. sheesh, Do you guys seriously think that is a good idea?:confused:

If Boot Camp is supposed to be one of the biggest new features, where is identification of it on the poster?
I see on the Far Left Top corner 'Universal' but not boot camp. I finf this strange.
Does that Universal Logo mean more then just PowerPC+MacIntel? Maybe Mac+PC? 'virtualization'?
The banner is current products (other than the Tiger disc) and is being waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy over analysed.

Higher spending, fewer jobs
This is corroborated in this (http://www.dollarsandsense.org/archives/2010/0310garrett-peltier.html) article by Heidi Garrett-Peltier, a research fellow at the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, who helped to author, “The U.S. Employment Effects of Military and Domestic Spending Priorities: An Updated Analysis,” by Robert Pollin and Heidi Garrett-Peltier ...
Is Military Keynesianism the Solution?
Why war is not a sustainable strategy for economic recovery.
It is true that military spending creates jobs throughout the economy, and that many of those jobs are well-paying. But at a time when our jobless rate is high, infrastructure is crumbling, and global climate change is becoming an increasingly urgent matter, we must ask whether military spending is truly a solution to our economic woes or whether we might be able to create more jobs in productive areas that also help us meet longer-term goals.
In a recent paper that I co-authored with Robert Pollin, we show that dollar per dollar, more jobs are created through spending on clean energy, health care, and education than on the military. Further, we show that more middle-income and well-paying jobs are created in all of these areas. For each $1 billion of spending, over 17,000 jobs would be created in clean energy, close to 20,000 in health care, and over 29,000 in education. That same $1 billion would create only 11,600 jobs as a result of military spending. If we look at well-paying jobs, those that pay over $64,000 per year, these alternative domestic spending areas also outperform military spending. The same $1 billion would create 1,500 well-paying jobs in clean energy and just over 1,000 in the military—clean energy creates 50% more good jobs than military spending. Education, which is labor-intensive and creates many well-paying jobs per dollar of expenditure, creates close to 2,500 jobs paying over $64,000—that’s 2.5 times as many as the military.
You boys seen enough evidence yet?
I can always get more.

I would love a laptop without an optical drive.
I hardly ever use mine on my 15'' PB, I'd love to be able to replace it with a battery or second hard drive or just leave the bay empty to reduce weight.
PC world sells USB floppy drives, USB CD and USB DVD drives for a few tenners each. I'd be perfectly happy to buy one and leave it in the drawer for when I need it.
PS - Bluetooth DVD drive? don't think so, big hunks of rotating media need either big expensive batteries or to be plugged into the mains electricity.
Would like to see someone try it on the market tho...

2 things
First, It's understandable to complain about the lack of EDU discounts on the new upods. Apple has ALWAYS given an edu discount... even for new products. To take that away now stinks.
Second, though these nanos look nice, I'm a little wary about the screen. If anyone remembers way back, that Apple is going to be using OLED technology instead of the normal screen.
here's the original rumor article:
http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2006/07/20060712182701.shtml
For those lazy, I'll quote
OLED displays draw significantly less power than traditional TFT-LCD displays used in current iPod models, as they do not require a backlight (each pixel directly emits its own light). OLED contrast ratio's are generally considered far superior to LCD displays because the pixels can display true black when off. However, OLEDs are not well suited for outdoor use, and have a limited lifespan.
While I'm happy that this is probably the reason for the increased battery life, I'm concerned about the life span of the screen. How much of a limited span are we talking about?
Edit: according to wikipedia, 5,000 hrs. For comparison, a typical LCD has a life of 50,000 hrs (30,000 hrs for lamp).

i don't understand why some people would long for 12 inch ones when macbook is 13 inches. don't tell me 1 inch will make that big of a difference.
and I also don't understand those who bash Apple for not making ultraportable laptops....only Sony makes the true ultraportable (TX series) and it is ultra-expensive. Other so-called ultraportable laptop makers usually lack media drive.
by the way, macbook is the best value of all laptops in the market, period.
finally, to those who would bitch about macbook not having a videocard, Apple is not a charity. They don't give you laptop for free.

It would be nice for Apple to announce it's end of life after offering a 10th anniversary model. They'd sell tens of millions.

I really hope you're being funny. You're a much more active member than I, but it's "fliquo.". Someone even has a sig stating something like, "the screensaver is fliquo, the answer is always fliquo."
:D
Come on. You know jessica. knows. Why reply? In addition, you spelled it wrong. It's: Fliqlo.
JESSICA never jokes!:rolleyes::rolleyes:
You both know in a weird way you kinda love me. :D
That joke doesn't seem to get old.
Nope, never. :D
But really, can't wait to get my ass in gear and get a few finishing touches done on my new office and take pics.

Haven't heard much from Obama about JOBS, JOBS, JOBS lately ...
Haven't heard from Boehner about JOBS, JOBS, JOBS either.
Anybody who thinks this is anywhere near what Dubya got us into with Iraq has the reading comprehension of a head of cabbage.
That said, I hope we don't get much deeper into this.

And they seem actually proud, inordinately so, of exploiting China's cheap labor. That's why "Designed in California" is followed by "Assembled in China." Snobs and serfs. That's their world.
I don't know about the USA but in Europe it's a legal requirement to display the country of manufacture so it may be nothing more than that
What are they manufacturing, and what percentage of Foxconn's output is represented by that type of product?
I don't know but the picture was with a story about phone manufacturing. I think all of FoxConn's output is high tech so it will be high tech of some sort.
Here are some more pictures of FoxConn's assembly lines

My FCS3 install spans 7 DVDs and weighs in around 50gb. FCPX as a stand alone app will be ~300mb, but they'll have to offer it on physical media if they plan on including all the extras that ship with the current suite. I'm sure it'll be $999 full, or $299 upgrade for the full studio. At least I hope so. Here I stand, cash in hand!
I really can't wait to see what happens with Logic.
