Kinda depends on how technical you are
Not at all. In fact, I think I murdered a toaster in previous life, and its spirit gets even with me in this life, via computers.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

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!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Is anyone else Steve-stalking today? It'll be the new notebooks that have been leaked and (I'm guessing) more on Snow Leopard, but any other predictions?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There's a good chance I'll end up buying something today.

I'd recommend staying away from Linux then, it is more user friendly than ever, but not on the level of Windows and OSX yet.

Stevestalking: They've just spent a loooong time talking about (a) their education market share and (b) their case manufacturing process (the latter does sound incredibly cool, to be fair) -- this makes me think it'll be the new notebooks and no other big suprises. They're filling time.

Light weight and mega graphics improvements. Resolve. Crumbling.

Well fuck, if I'm reading it correctly they didn't announce a new 17" and they dropped the matte display. I really hope that's wrong.

You're not wrong, ND. Sorry. The existing 17" MacBook will still be on sale, at least for now.

So much for upgrading anytime soon. I can't imagine givine up the 1920x1200 display on this, and I use it outside often enough that a glossy screen will be a hangup. Hopefully this isn't the end of the 17" it's just a delay.
