I think that is Not the new MBP day, 'cause they should change the MAC page on apple site too, but instead, this page it's always showing the old MBP.
I think it's only the iPad pre-order day. :(

Perhaps you may want to direct your concerns to Apple, Moto Semiconductor, IBM, etc.
This is a rumors site occasionally perused by Apple legal, and maybe some employees looking for a laugh.
If you want Apple to continue to be "behind" (is that a gentle enough word for you?) in the hardware sector, then that's fine.
I don't, no one here does, but I could type 'til I'm blue in the face here, and it wouldn't change the course that Apple is on.
Oddly enough, The Steve is not sitting in his office, with a bunch of processor designers, eagerly awaiting your (or my) next post.

Agreed, speed would help gain new market share. Never said anything to the contrary.
Have you ever heard of the phrase "Give the people what they want" ? Well most people want speed and numbers.
Most people want cheap computers too. Most people want a lot of things. I'm all for better numbers, as long as they are performance and not GHz based.
If we artificailly inflate numbers at the cost of performance (PIV) we have more GHz doing the same amount of work. If we lower margins and Apple quits being a botique company, quality will suffer, profits will suffer, and the overall effect won't be good.
If Apple has a 30% share in the future, do you think we'll remain virus free? Do you think we'll get more attention from the pop-up spyware writers? Do you think the hardware will still be built to as high of a spec?
And anyone who has said "I like your style, Nipsy" in this thread, no you don't, you just like the fact that he's defending your precious Macs. You guys whine and complain about what Apple's needs to do right, but as soon as someone points out that Apple is doing something wrong, you suddenly completely disagree with the very points that you yourselves were making. It's pretty pathetic.
Actually, I beleive I may be getting kudos for writing clear responses, provinding links, admitting I'm wrong when I make a mistake, and speaking with a modicum of business acumen. I'm intelligent enough to know that Apple does not have the market cap to fully control their chip evolution, and you, it seems, are not.
In case you still believe that it is Apple's fault, I will make an offer right now.
Call Motorola, order 2000 2.4GHz G5s (you can order IBM 970s if you'd like). Send me the bill, and I'll upgrade eveyone's machine for free.

Just goes to show that what Apple says about how much faster stuff is a load of bull. How come the MBP is 39% faster and the MB only 25%. Theyre the same chips at the same speeds arent they?
What im trying to say is the MB should be 39% faster than the previous one right?
:confused:
No, the claim for the MBP is for 2.16GHz Core Duo v 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo so there is an increase in clock speed as well as the change in chip.
For the MB they don't get an increase in clock speed hence the lower claimed speed increase.

...finally...
Apple has dropped the ball here. Now that most laptops ship with the same chips, Apple can't claim the "Mhz Myth" or anything like that. They will have to keep up to speed, no pun intended.
Werd!:cool:
You want intel chips.... well you're gonna have to keep up with the intel's fever paced processor upgrades Apple!

Remember, Apple and Dell get their batteries from the same manufacturer. ;)
Same manufacturer does not mean the same battery. Apple designed their battery from scratch, no other computer manufacturer uses the same battery as Apple. I'm floored at how fast it charges, how long it lasts, and how little charge its lost (its at 90% after 9 months and 172 cycles).

Sligthly off-topic:
Judging from history what do you thing, when would iLife '07 be available?
I am seriously considering to wait a little longer (the 1.83 model has left me strongly disappointed).
So I thought I can wait a little longer and buy when iLife 07 will be included in the purchase (to make up for the lousy specs ) :rolleyes:
iLife is updated every year at Macworld San Francisco in January. Just wait until then if you really want. I've got a bit of a feeling that we'll be seeing quite a bit of Leopard then, quite possibly even a release date since Vista is released later that month...

What a fabulously foolish and ignorant statement.
I've known several people who have died in car accidents therefore most people die in car accidents :rolleyes:.
I personally live in the middle of Richmond VA which is filled plenty of lower class African Americans, who I walk by on my way to school every day. And in the last three years no one has offered to sell me food stamps. Therefore no one EVER abuses the food stamp program :rolleyes:.
If you can't produce some statistical data than your just making **** up.
I can't produce numbers, so I'm just making it up. That is a very stupid statement, you just made. I didn't mention the race of the people that wanted to sell me food stamps. For the record, most of the time, it has white people that I know.
You bringing up race, is just your foolish way to try to discredit me. My opinion that food stamps are abused by most, is by observing what strangers in the check out, are buying with food stamps, and seeing what people I know, bring home.

I agree that Apple needs to come up with some new designs for their hardware.
Apple purposely wanted to keep the same designs when they transitioned from ppc to intel in order to make the experience feel seamless to the end user. I have no proof of this, it's just what I assumed because it makes so much sense.

I have to go mucking around with plugins to get Flash out of my face on OS X, compared to the iPhone, which does it for me. :rolleyes:
All jokes aside, I personally don�t like Flash, but I�m not quite sure I see the evil of just having the option for it on the iPhone.

I believe, as scripture details, that God established a covenant with Abraham and from this covenant the Jewish nation was born.
So the all-powerful super-being took a particular interest in Abraham's plight and no other (we could in theory suggest that the deity might have tried with others but Abraham was his first real success, which would neither improve nor detract from the story). Thereafter, the lives and fates of he and his children were bound to the deity, which bestowed upon them boons and miseries, as it saw fit.
Yet Mighty Yggdrasil, the Songlines, Sun Wukong, Tyhee Saghalie, etc, these are more absurd than the concept of an exclusive god? You earlier put forth that unbelievers cannot do good that is not vain or self glorifying: the history of your religion (by the approved texts) shows that you do have an intimate understanding of what those terms mean.
I understand that you think your view of the evidence is the correct view and I respect your right to have that opinion. However, the whole of both the Jewish and the Christian faith would disagree.
And the truth is democratic.

As discussed in other similar threads, this represents EXCELLENT news ....
agreed, it makes sense to diversify - having too many eggs in one basket (China/South east Asia) is too risky for Foxconn. One natural disaster, political unrest, region turmoil, economic problems, stuff you can't control can easily sink your company. I'm sure some of Foxconn's customer (Apple, Sony) have questions for them about any business continuity plans, risk management and their ability to supply after what happened in Japan.

How would the built-in tuner make the iPod worse? Don't want to use it? Then don't. And what if you want a tuner AND some other missing feature? Can you stack accessories to the iPod? Would it look nice?
That said, I AM planning to get that 80GB iPod :). Although that Black Nano looks gorgerous as well....

... then sit back and watch everyone complain about the high priced products! Yeah, sounds like a winner.
And not complain about Apple's margins?
Gimme a break...just because something is manufactured in the USA does not instantly mean it's pricier to the end consumer. There are a LOT of reasons why businesses invest outside the US and typically at the end of the day it's the COMPANY that wants to SAVE money and KEEP THOSE SAVINGS.
Do you really think the company passes 100% of the savings on to the consumer? How about 50% of those savings. Keep going....

'Allow iTunes control from remote speakers'
Also, while looking for iTunes7 I read that v 6.0.5 could send audio to more than one set of remote speakers simultaneously. How do you do that?
