I hope they are wrong. It is really sad. Apple just keeps falling behind more and more.

Well Here we are on Wednesday. No update. No new powerbooks in the channels though. (ala. Clubmac, Smalldog, and Comp USA) But Perhaps that is just Apple making good on reducing inventories.
I read another post somewhere that said Nov. 5th, but I have a feeling we will be seeing those about every 2 weeks until MWSF.

I think that they will release the g5 in Jan. It will be called the g5 ( Big suprise :eek: ) and it will have speeds at about 1.2 GHz 1.4 GHz & 1.6 GHz. Then later in the year, maybe right b4 christmas, apple will release the GPUL mac with speeds at 1.5, 1.7, and 2.0 GHz. Total guesses, but this is what I am guessing.

Is there any way to see the WU's completed, along with how many points they earned, when they were started, and when they were completed?
You can get a list of all the units you've completed at the folding a F@H site (link (http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=userpage&username=EricNau)), but that won't show how many points they were worth, or when they were completed. If you keep the logs, you can find out how when they were finished, but I don't think there's a way to find out of many points they were worth, unless you keep track of that manually, either by checking the points every time a WU is finished or by calculating how many points they were worth... (I think they keep some formula somewhere on the site). :p

...To be in a situation where you have to suffer an invasion of privacy just to prove that you don't want to buy a product is, quite frankly, bollocks.
You won't find me disagreeing with that. It is bollocks but what would be even more galling is to be put down for a TV license for merely owning a computer.

Yup!
A 800Mhz Powerbook fully loaded with 1Gb of Ram and a 60Gb HD cost's $6,059.00.Add 14.5% sales tax onto that and I am looking at a $6,936.00 Apple portable.That's before Apple care,extra anything and software etc.,in which case,with a nifty extra battery and Applecare for not if,but when it breaks,and .Mac,the grand total Reaches $7,710.09 CANADIAN DOLLARS
Needless to say that this price is out of reach of the average Joe around here.The best part is that your investment is only worth a fraction of that in a year or two,and that Apple considers it acceptable for it to not work 100% as advertised.Almost be wiser to put a down payment on a home and property with that amount of money.
But I wan't one,dammit!:D

1) If you want to contact someone senior in Microsoft, contact an MVP first. There are MVPs for XBox. MVPs have many contacts inside Microsoft, and if they see fit, might forward your request.
2) If you have a wireless network, and other devices can connect to it, then chances are you are using NAT. If you are using NAT, then both your own computer and the XBox360 would have the same public IP address, in which case you already know your public IP. Therefore, the IP address of the XBox is irrelevant - in this case.
3) If the thief in question has left the area, and connects to the internet again through another network, then they will obviously have a different IP Address, and you can possibly use route #1 to track down the individual.
You also mentioned that you know the device has been on the internet because of certain internet services. If you can contact one of those - after the device reconnects - it might be easier to get the device's IP address from those individuals rather than Microsoft.
(bear in mind, Microsoft might be legally bound to not give out user-identifiable information, irrespective of the circumstances)
So if you can get the IP in question, you now know the ISP in question, and the ISP would (should) be able to track which user account or telephone number or address was using that particular IP address at that particular time.
This of course brings you back to the original problem of tracking down where the unit is etc. etc., but it makes more sense to do this now.
I'm sure there is something you could have done or will be able to do in relation to checking signal strength from other devices by walking around with a laptop in order to figure out a rough location of the wireless device.
They could do this in the 40s with radio transmissions so I'm sure it's not beyond the realms of possibility to do it in the 21st century :)
Just my €0.02 :)

This has been discussed many times over the last 2-3 years. What is a DEC Alpha chip exactly? Forgive me, I'd do better in Apple's marketing department, not their chip-design section. :)

But what if I got hold of that wedding video and decided to, I dunno, turn it into a music video for my own music... and that music video got onto MTV? No one is losing out on any money. No one is being hurt. I'm not stealing. I'm -merely- infringing copyright.
Which is why copyright is a bunch of bull.

In fact, just because it is called a G3 the processor in the new iBook is a pretty new design, and I am still using a 3 year old iMac at home...it runs anything great. Get the 700 and stick a good deal of RAM in it and enjoy Jaguar. I love it!!!!! Oh l love my iBook! hehe You will too...just do it and forget all the rumors and this and that...

i keep looking at the charts and thinking that the mac folders somewhere way down the list should join us. i personally think that MacOS X are fine as they are, but we however could do with and extra 10k a day.... especially at the moment since we have dropped below 50k per day. i wish they would...
oh well. it's all for a good cause etc.

If I said that I could do that if I really wanted to, would that go back to makign me a candidate for MPD?

It's, erm, insania. The gist of it being that the whip-wielding vampire-vanquishing adventure into androgyny, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, is going to vanquish vampires and wield whips on Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday (when else?). An 800 MS Point ($10) expenditure will net you both the original version of the game and another that boasts improved HD visuals and sound.

. I'm actually more prone to just downloading a save file from Gamefaqs and just driving about.
yep same here. and messing about with the cheat codes.
For next gen GTA - they really need deformable landscapes and more buildings to enter.
