Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

It must be bunnies!
First Mac with Intel processor today.
Same sizes. 17", 20". Same design. Same features (isight, front row, apple remote), Same price. What's different.
Intel Processor. 2-3x faster than the iMac G5.
eta:
Two cores. each one faster than the G5.
Cool!
One more thing
MacBook Pro. No more Powerbook.
eta:
2 processors in every Macbook pro.
4-5x faster.
Fuck. Want.
The first 60 gig came out when they introduced the Photo iPods in Oct. 2004.
What Tina said. I got my 60 gig as a birthday present last February.
Why yes, there is lust.
2 processors in every Macbook pro.
4-5x faster.
Oooooooooooooooooooooh.
I think I may give in and buy a digital camera for my upcoming trip. Who has recs for a fairly easy to use, lightweight camera? (and who wants to hold my hand and talk me through learning to use it?)
I decided to buy a 12 inch Powerbook last week because I wanted to make sure I got a 12 inch G4 while I still could. I figured the first batch of these Intel-based laptops would be too full of problems and too hard to get this year and I've needed a new computer for a long time.
Reading the announcements - I had about 10 minutes of panic filled buyers remorse. I mean - five times faster? And I am still within my 30-day period where I could return it no questions. But that's crazy - I don't need something that is five times faster - I am not making movies on it or anything.
I love the 12-inch - it's so compact. It's silly to think of returning it only to wait all year for a new 15 inch that will probably have a boatload of bugs.
I feel like I made the right decision. But man - the MacBook does sound pretty cool.
