Regardless of when Leopard's released, at least Steve can tell us about those "super secret" features he was on about. Right?
Right?

I'm too chicken to install it, just like the SMC firmware update for the fans. I've had no problems at all with my MacBook (purchased in May) so I know it will screw something up. I know nobody cares but for some reason I wanted to post it. :(

Sigh,
Can we get some MAC rumors this is absolutely ridiculous, the mac mini and iMac are over due for updates and you still prune the web for the smallest hint about a product that has just been re-released.
I realize your trying to generate traffic but this is getting increasingly low.
The front page is filled with iOS information and a little on FCP and the new Adobe suite.
Where are the MAC rumors. :mad:
I truly agree. I especially hate all the rumors concerning the iPad 3, whatever that is...
Let's hear about the iMac and Mac mini now, please.

So what do you guys think about this:
My girlfriend's babysitt-ee kicked her 3GS in the bathtub a few months ago and she's been using a 2G, original iPhone ever since, and was hoping that she could get a white iP5 this summer. So now she's pretty excited about a white iP4 coming out, and would be ok with getting it if it weren't for the uncertainty about the release of the iP5 (I guess I've made her into a refresh-watcher).
She's eligible for an upgrade and would definitely do so if the iP5 is going to be pushed later in the year rather than the summer (she can't wait to stop using the old iPhone). What do people think? Take the chance and get the white 4?
I'm in the same boat. I'm using a 3G with cracked screen and other issues. I originally wanted the white iPhone 4, but held out and decided to just wait until the 5. Now that the white 4 is definitely coming out and the 5 is possibly delayed I am thinking about grabbing the white 4. I will be really disappointed if the 5 ends up coming out in June/July though. It doesn't seem likely, but you never know. I figure I'll see what the latest rumors are at the time of the white launch - assuming there isn't anything pointing to a summer release of the 5, I'm just going to go for it.

pretty similar to the rumors on page 2 (obtained by macrumors directly, but "unverified") except that those rumors also include displays and a core 2 duo in something other than the mac pro.
I'm going to split the difference and say
- leopard
- mac pro
- xserve
- displays
Same as I've been saying for a while now! :p
I think I'm most excited about leopard as I won't be in the market for any hardware for a while now.

I just want to see a result. And it would be great to have that "Hooray!" moment if England were to win. A little hard to do with everyone in the dressing room.

There seems to be a bit of beer snobbery going on here. I don't particularly like stouts (apart from the odd Caffrey's) and don't like standard lagers, the likes of Tennents, Carling, McEwans... but I will drink a Bud. It's cheap mass produced fizzy water, but hey it's better than not having a beer. I also like Fosters, Carlsberg, and Rolling Rock (which if anybody knows where to get them in this country I'd be eternally grateful).
My uncle loves Rolling Rock....I'm not a fan, buit will drink it if it's cold and there's nothing else. :D But like I said, I'll drink a Miller High Life or Labatt Blue too, so while I loves me some fancy microbrew, I'm not averse to high-volume lager. I like Stella Artois too, even though we get the crappy export version here in the states. Also Becks.
Lately I've been drinking a lot of Pilsener Urquell.

I'm sure a .edu-discounted MacBook is going to be close in price anyway, and then there's the Mac mini, I doubt the student's Mac will usually be their first computer ever. Either one is probably a better fit.
The $900 iMac really is an institutional product, not aimed at personal users. Personally I think it'd work well as a corporate product too, if Apple could actually start selling to corporate customers.
How is that exactly? It�s a MacBook with a stand and a bigger screen. How is it not for personal use?

So I'd have to have an external CD drive to play all my games, install my software, go through my backups and import my new music into iTunes?
Oh dear Apple, for the love of god, do not even attempt to axe the CD drive. Please.
I don't think they've had a CD drive nor has anyone distributed anything on CD for 10 years.
The phrase you're looking for is DVD. Get into the 90s!

Digital magazines could be successful if they allow subscriptions. I would even be ok if the digital sub was a little more than physical since I always loose or destroy the physical magazine.
Part of the blame goes to Apple and their money grubbing ways, in that they want a 30% cut of gross sub $. This makes it far less attractive for publishers to do this. Also, I too would love a unified model, but I am sure Apple would also want a slice of the action here as well.

There was a mention of it tapping into the technologies already in Snow Leopard as part of the demo, so I would expect it to run on at least 10.6. Forcing everyone to upgrade to Lion in order to use FCPX doesn't seem at all likely.
Yes, FCPX is using tech already existing in SL, but we don't know what new underlying tech it uses. For instance, one thing they didn't mention is anything about QuickTime. Some expect that they using the AVFoundation framework being introduced to Lion. If so, they would have to bake it into FCPX to allow installation on SL, or supply an upgrade to SL with this new functionality, likely as part of a ProKit Update via Software Update. The simpler solution, especially for maintenance, is simply to require you to upgrade to Lion which will have AVFoundation, not to mention, other new tech.
The reason I'm not 100% behind requiring Lion is because asking so many to upgrade from SL seems a bit extreme to me too. It would slow down adoption of FCPX because so many users can't quickly move forward when they depend on other software & hardware. Still, I wouldn't put that requirement past Apple.
EDIT: In this video (http://vimeo.com/22329493) at about 4:14 the guy says 'leveraging the best of Snow Leopard'. That is an indicator that SL will be supported.

Wrong.
Expiry has nothing to do with it. As an account holder with four iPhones, my line is elligible for upgrade every year.
I have an iPhone 4, I'm upgrade eligible on June 11th.
Where's my iPhone 5, Apple?
Your plan for upgrading is with your cell phone provider, right? Most likely the answer is yes - but Apple is not responsible for fulfilling your cell phone promise of upgrades every year. Thats between you and your cell phone provider... Harsh as it may sound..
Since Apple are releasing the white iPhone 4 soon, I doubt Apple will be pushing out an iPhone 5 between now and end of summer..

Is this a limited run as we had heard before?
If so won't that hurt their sales of the lower two units as people would now see them as the "tard pack." Consumers will wait for Microsoft to release the HDMI version at the $399 price point and at the same time MS would be waiting for consumers to clear out inventory of the mid range so they could intro the new model at a lower price.
And please don't try to argue that consumers wouldn't see the $399 as the "tard pack." Regardless of the fact that it functions just as well, people would realize that for $80 more they could have the HDMI and 120 GB HD, thus rendering the $399 model a poor choice. Even removing HDMI from the picture, they would get the $179 120 GB HD for an upgrade price of $80.
Of course once you get to the point of buying the elite for $479, any consumer sitting on the fence between PS3 and 360 has to really weigh the options. Assuming they wanted wireless, which isn't a stretch of the imagination, there's only a $20 difference between the two. The upside of the 360 is the game library, the upside of the PS3 is BluRay. It just doesn't bode well for MS to make it easier for the consumer to pick the PS3 over the 360.
P.S. Before someone says I'm a PS3 fanboy here is my current next gen setup: 360 premium, wireless, HD-DVD drive.

I heard about that...interesting. I have never hacked or jail breaked a phone from any manufacturer and don't intend to. So that isn't an issue for me. At least you can hold the DroidX anyway you like and still make a call as well as set up a mobile hotspot...two things you can't do on an iPhone4.
Girl,
I just talked to my boyfriend last night without a bumper holding it that way for an hour and half, and so did he. We didn't have no issues at all. I think that ms. verizon and ms.google have done paid off ms. consumer reports to give a bad rating. Convient timing for the droid x release, uh humm. I would like to find someone with a legitimate problem. Blackberry's, nokia's, etc all do the same, so they should have bad rattings too.
