Would you commit a suicide if they didn't? Waiting is part of the game but I don't think Apple or computers are THAT important in my life. They kill time nicely but I can live without them, for a short period of time
Apple makes products that make our lives better. But as far as reasons to live... that's taking it a bit too far. I'd hate for my life to depend on a new Mac Pro
It can be entertaining obsessing about it here but it's not life and death.
