Office 12 will be a simultaneous release for both PC and Mac. It's supposed to be the first release achieving feature parity between the Mac and Windows versions.
Currently Office:mac 2004 is, in my opinion, a superior version to Office 2003 for Windows.
oooo!!! That's cool.

What worries me is what would happen if Apple did produce a hi-end workstation that cost similar to Sun's and SGI's finest???I'm sure some would winj that it is too expensive etc etc..... that no one would buy it because it's so expensive, and they need to make it and sell it for $1600 cos they could make a dual AMD, with everything for that.... etc etc......
Personally I think Apple should produce an utra hi-end workstation, that costs thousands, but is basically the best out of the box pro creative solution you can buy...... that'd grab some headlines, and probably a far old whack of SGI's current new business........

Oh yea, nice and fast :rolleyes:. A Dual 1.25Ghz G4 vs a single 2.8ghz P4, uhhh isn't that a little unfair. Where is the dual 2.4ghz P4 vs dual 1.25ghz G4 comparison?

So before the deep breath of answering, it�s worth stating that I�m not up for a slanging match here, but I do find this topic really interesting and it would be good to get a clarified, multi-perspective build of the story :)�.
First, most of these books are written by people out side the community and done quickly to make a buck on the Steve Jobs name.
This book was co-written by the co-founder of MacWorld so I think you could probably say he was �in the community� when the NeXT story was unfolding.
The six months was correct as I couldn't remember the exact period off hand. But there was a settlement, and there was a non-compete clause for NeXT. And it was that non-compete that forced NeXT out of the desktop market... permanently.
Ok, but this article (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=17445) says that the non-compete clause stated all NeXT computers had only (a big only of course but nevertheless) to be more powerful than the similar Apple product so it wouldn�t compete?

keep the G3 processor for the crt imac and constantly up its speed from time to time while lowering it $699, 599, and finally 499 usd
use the G3fx in the ibook until mwsf in january 2003...and then put in a G4 at that time
at the end of then pull the G3 from the crt imac and put a G4 in it and keep it as an educational and entry level mac
hopefully, sometime in 2003 and certainly by the end of that year, we will have the G5 in pro model towers
wishful thinking...i know, but it's a goal to shoot for (if crt imac goes to $599 usd and ibook gets G4 in mid-2003...that will actually not be bad, either)

100% certain. Powerbooks were just declared "end of life" today in Europe and domestic supplies are rapidly thinning. More likely to be declared during Paris and Seybold San Francisco.

Dont you think that chip would be a little to hot... :D . Well, I fully agree with OS X being the best. But the OS and the quality apps are all that is going for apple. Apple lacks speed, but I cant blame apple for that (stupid moto :rolleyes:), but I can blame them for not dumping moto a long time ago. If apple computer were just as fast as PCs there is no way I would think about getting near a 'peecee', but they arent as fast :(...

I agree...
I would love to see an APG slot to upgrade the vid card. This may go against the whole point of the iMac line though.
With a 19" screen I suspect it would have to have a larger base which could translate to more expandability. I think that it would also make it more marketable to potential switchers who expect to be able to upgrade their computers.
Here's to hoping...

Canadian prices for the Cinema Displays are currently at:
1799, 2799, and 4699. I wonder if they'll work in the stronger Canadian dollar.

I'm guessing (hoping) the angry people got their aggression out in the other thread and now we're done.
The guy over at MacNN is sticking by his guns for a pre-2003 PowerBook revision, so I guess that's a good sign. At least it's not a bad one.
Eye, if you're looking to go mobile, I'd guess that whatever comes out -- either on 11/5 or at MWSF -- will meet your needs nicely. I just wouldn't buy what's out there now; WORST case scenario is that you've gotta wait about two months. In the grand scheme of Apple product cycles, that's not much.

I think you are all overreacting. Have you actually read how it was cracked? Basically play your music, and record it. Replace Napster with iTunes, and the instructions would still remain valid. (but then the itunes drm was _really_ cracked, and it's easier to use hymn than to use the analogue loophole available to any drm scheme)
Personally I think that all the napster bashing is pretty sick.. The more competition, the better. I hate all monopolies, I don't care if it is a stylish monopoly.
Bah, maybe someday there will be a music download service that doesn't lock me in on their platform, that doesn't restrict me what I can do with _MY_ music, that gives me high quality music! A service that doesn't suck to put it bluntly. When we get there, it will be thanks to plain old competition in a free market. Nothing else.
True, the iTMS locks you in the iPod platform (even though that also includes Motorola phones :rolleyes: ), while Napster et al. lock you in the Wintel platform :eek:. However... "do the math" (how I hate this slogan), and tell me which is worse: being locked to a digital music player (�ber-cool, btw), or being locked to a (decaying) OS?

If you are interested in setting up MythTV, do not waste your time with Ubuntu or any other distribution that requires you to build Myth yourself. You'll spend a LONG time dealing with lots and lots of tedious details.
Instead, I suggest trying KnoppMyth, as nowaycomputer also suggested. It is a version of Knoppix Linux, that comes with MythTV already installed. It automatically detects most of your hardware. Although, you may have to answer a few questions about your TV card or something like that.

I set it up on an extra AMD box that I have in less than an hour.

It is on Bloomberg news: Apple will use IBM's processors that are being introduced today (reported by AP). It is not clear yet which Apple products will use the IBM PowerPC 970. It is a 64-bit (32-bit compatible).
However, there is no official word from either IBM or Apple.
Well, I feel pretty sure now about this move and very happy because I really think it sounds wise on Apple's part (of course, what do I know) - just my impression.

I have added a couple of more MacBooks to the group.
The portables seem to run at full fan speed whe the SMP client is running.
I have seem to be getting about 6 to 7 percent failure to complete a unit but to date all of my 9 machines seem to be able to run the units and other applications.
I haven't had any of the issues that trainguy77 has described.
