Ahahahah that made my day[...]You can be with the family (if you have one) in the same room quietly doing your thing ,
instead of isolating yourself in front of the desktop in another room.
(I know same, but at least you are all in the same room![]()
Is it worth waiting until Apple releases Lion? I have had issues when I upgrade operating systems. First from Panther to Tiger, and then from Tiger to Leopard.![]()
Apple Online store.
Apple RAM has always been priced higher than "street" prices. This is true in the USA too. The Macs themselves, though, really can't be compared due to Apple's strict discount policy.You pay at least 25 percent more in the Apple Store, if you compare the Apple Store prices with "street prices". Apple RAM (8 GB) for my MBP 17" costs > 500,- Euros in the Apple Store. The same RAM (Samsung) costs only 90,- Euros if you buy it in a online PC Store.
I have a feeling we WILL see a GPU update when the iMacs are next refreshed. However, one continuing problem for Apple is heat dissipation. The high-end GPUs today are better than the previous generation in this regard, yes... but still are not ideal for Apple to use. Therefore, I am expecting an update to the next-gen ATI GPUs (6xxx series) but not the highest-end cards - too much heat for the poor iMac to handle.AAPLaday said:Worthy graphics upgrade please![]()

I just always order the highest spec machine on the Apple Online Store that can't be user upgraded (like the cpu) and then go to OWC and order the RAM for much cheaper and a HDD/SSD if need be.
To MBP or iMac? (Or both?)3D screens coming. Not that I am hoping for that. I have no desire to watch 3D movies. But entertainment is a big part of Apple products now. An imac can be the entertainment system of a room.
You know HDD and RAM aren't user upgradeable without voiding your Apple Care right? Such a PITA.
Apple's own 30 inch monitors are two inches wider than the 27 inch monitor...

Actually, Intel has fixed the problem already, in mobile AND desktop chips.Do the iMacs use mobile forms of the processors? If not, they aren't coming out for at least another month or two. Intel hasn't started shipping corrected desktop chipsets for sandyBridge yet. Can't make the computer without the parts...
30" and 24" 16:10? All Apple has to do is make the screen take up the chin, correct?
