Two very strong competitors are potentially releasing a product at about the same time. IMHO, whoever does it first will get their thunder taken by the other. As windows was announced some time ago and the release date scheduled I think it is only smart for Apple to wait for next week and then pound 'em ;)

I really hope that is not the case though, need my iMac asap.

Yeah but if it's price cut and the sane ole same ole, it won't do much. How many times Di we hear rumors only to be really unsatisfied thst it's just price cuts. Or if your Pro user like I am then see the 13" mnp has no express slot, it leaves a bad taser in your mouth.

Apple revolves sadly now, around the iPhone consumer and I thibknwecwont see any quads and if we do they will be much slower. Remember, Aple never in years since the ihone caused one to one traing to go from logic,shake,FCP to all iLife trainers ( you can't find anyone that knows shake) let alone FCP, applle for years has never given uscwhat we wanted ie headless midrange mac pro. It's mobile parts or outrageous server parts needlessly overpriced i
mean its supposed to be a work statio not a servertherefore I don't see apple stealing any thunder if it's price cuts and mobile arts this is a fail and part of the reason apple appears to be successful during this bad economy is that people are dumping land lines to save a few bucks.
Seen it over and ober, the refreshes always turn out to be dissappointing then a few dats latter we start to justify the release. The only small bit if news is that jobs said something about updates that pros (althuogh his definition of pri is prosumer), would like
otherwise with all the rave reviews win 7 has combined with millions if IT firns updating. Win 7 will be huge and only things like a 3.0 octo core i7 midrange mac at under $1000, same price, little more than a hackntosh, i see very little
thunde stealing especially since most new monitors comecnwith hdmi and all new pcs can turn yoir pc into a media hub, ie tv tuner and apple tv try has dvr, I think apple will not steal anything. Not when in out if three top fortune 500 companies stuck in xp world will update.

Look into your home owners insurance. See if they offer a rider for computers. Mine does. Regardless of what happens to it (even if I run over it with my car) all my computers are covered. My current MBP was bought using insurance money from an old Powerbook that died in the night. Literally died at night. Was working just fine before going to bed, woke up the next morning, and it was dead. When I called my Insurance company, they did not seem to care why it died. When I offered an explanation, she listened, and then told me it didn't matter, as whatever happens to it, its covered. Ya my premiums went up, $12 a year. In 30 years I will have the laptop "paid off". Though my insurance company also has a "If you don't have a claim in 12 months, we reduce your premiums." clause. They happen to have reduced my premiums (its been 14 months) by $15 a year. Technically, they are paying me to own my MBP now. ;)

That's very interesting......I'm going to have to have a look at that. Previous owner of my house disconnected the electrical ground and it played havoc with a couple of computers.....

Typing on your iPhone or are you drunk?
 
I hope the iMac specs are going to be worth it. For $1400 this past weekend, I built me an i7 Windows 7 rig: GTX 260 graphics card (216 streams with Overclock), 6 gigs of DDR3 PC2000 RAM, 1TB hard drive, i7 860 2.8GHz processor (effectively 8 cores), 2 "super drives", EVGA P55 LE mobo. All in an Antec 300 mini tower.

I'll stick with Macbooks. Apple's desktops have been lacking for a long time.
 
All the stores in Asia/Oceania appear to be down, but none anywhere else?

As long as the US Store is up (no offense) it can't be "THE BIG ONE", can it?
 
Stupid Yanks think it's all about you. Just cause the US store isn't down doesn't mean there won't be updates, the US store will be down soon enough, I'm sure they don't close them all at the same time, maybe by alphabetical order or something.
