- happyseamonster, on 12/06/2007, -9/+60I get sooooo excited about a wonderful product coming out that I just want to burst! And then I remember I can't afford it... so I just go make a sandwich and watch TV.
- fmerchant, on 12/06/2007, -2/+29This better be true, I've been holding off buying a new laptop. If I have to wait any longer than MacWorld, I'm going to have to start using pen and paper again.
- drlha, on 12/06/2007, -2/+26Yeah, and I wish Ferrari would make a sub $20 grand coupe.
- drlha, on 12/06/2007, -3/+18Get a job!
- tortfeasor, on 12/06/2007, -4/+17We hate you.
- MikeCerm, on 12/06/2007, -3/+15I think that the $500 price point is perfect. Think Eee PC + $100 for OS X.
- tortfeasor, on 12/06/2007, -1/+11Me and my mom.
- corsairstw, on 12/06/2007, -0/+9Of course, it's only a rumor. How could you even think it was anything more? Apple never talks about unannounced products.
- monospaced, on 12/06/2007, -8/+17Buy AAPL
- LogitechG15, on 12/06/2007, -0/+9Everyone has their hobbies, so what if he gets excited for some new tech? Better than getting excited to ridicule someone over the internet.
- EricG, on 12/06/2007, -6/+14Wish apple would make a $500 "super laptop" ..
- mcmlxxii, on 12/06/2007, -1/+93G so soon? Only 5 years after Nokia...
- tortfeasor, on 12/06/2007, -1/+9He is trying to lull you into a false sense of security. Just when he's won your trust, he'll secede and you'll be left looking like a trusting fool. I don't want that to happen to you.
- Okari, on 12/06/2007, -6/+13Must be nice having all this money to throw around.
- jenx, on 12/06/2007, -1/+8Does it make you want to burst with snacky happiness?
- Firehed, on 12/06/2007, -0/+7MBP for $1299? Last I checked they were starting at $1999; knock $300 for refurb.
- slackerxpc, on 12/06/2007, -6/+12I think the $1500 price-point is perfect, Apple sells current macbooks for as low as $749 refurbished, and Macbook Pros for $1299. I would be willing to shell out $1500 for an ultra sexy mini-notebook.
- fkr3, on 12/06/2007, -0/+6It is true. Apple will be making headlines, absolutely guaranteed. And some time in the next year a 3G iPhone is inevitable. And some form of Super laptop. Possibly Superman themed.
- Ben174, on 12/06/2007, -0/+5sudo make me a sandwich.
- inactive, on 12/06/2007, -0/+5i hope the super laptop is superrer than the superdrive.
- rAid135, on 12/06/2007, -0/+5Was just about to consider buying an Iphone... but now a newer one? I hope it comes out early 2008 so I don't have to wait that long
- xoineg, on 12/06/2007, -0/+5is so true they are shipping now :D
- mediaspree, on 12/06/2007, -1/+5TRANSSSSSFORM
- inactive, on 12/06/2007, -0/+4lo
- tortfeasor, on 12/06/2007, -2/+6You could always pretend you're a dinosaur; maybe a T-Rex or Triceratops (my favorite). Remember imagination is free!
- ralph123, on 12/06/2007, -3/+7Get a family and you'd know what he's talking about.
- IndigoMoss, on 12/06/2007, -0/+3Yeah that'd be pretty kick ass, and I bet they'd make a lot of profit too.
- xsecretfiles, on 12/06/2007, -2/+5what??? I was soo going to buy an iphone this weekend. I swear
but is this true?? or just a rumor??? - ozziek, on 12/06/2007, -0/+3Correction:-
"Apple will be making headlines in the next weeks-to-months-to-years related to the iPod Touch, iPhone and ultra-portable laptop, the iMac, the Macbook Pro, the Macbook and any and all Apple products"
There, that should cover it.... - inactive, on 12/07/2007, -0/+3The EEE is super, and Apple's is sure to be better.
- websyndicate, on 12/06/2007, -0/+3I dont think they will announce and iPhone that just speculation. Look at what happend to ipod Video that thing lasted quite a while on the market. Everybody spectulated that a new ipod video would be release every conference but no cigar.
- inactive, on 12/06/2007, -1/+3Long live the CSA!
- Tippis, on 12/07/2007, -1/+3...also, xkcd is obviously hugely impopular around here... :rolleyes:
- inactive, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2A small laptop with a screen 12" to 9", or you could say a tablet.
- dagamer34, on 12/06/2007, -0/+2iPod touch = true iPod video, but it got overshadowed by the iPhone.
- inactive, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2Probably not.
- timusca, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2Uhhh derrrrrrrr.... coullld it beeee.... Unix commaaaaaaands???
- Adonai, on 12/06/2007, -0/+2Generally speaking Flash memory storage uses significantly less power than a HDD because most of the power used in a HDD is used for the physical aspect of the device - spin up, spin down, etc - then storing the actual data. Obviously comparisons will vary wildly based on how much the drive is accessed during a given period, the size of the cache file, manufacturer, etc, but I think it would be safe to say that power usage would be 50% less for Flash vs. HDD. This could have a big impact on a device that small (less power used for that small display, so HDD becomes a bigger portion of the total machine's power usage).
These are all just kind of rough estimations, though - sp1r1t, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2Does your Zune allow you to talk on it?
Bahahahahahahaahaha.
:] - inactive, on 08/11/2008, -0/+2What, exactly, is the definition of an "ultra-portable laptop"?
- Ramble, on 12/06/2007, -0/+2Chances are you've been excited by a product. Want that shiny new car? Sorry, it's a product, made by *gasp* a company!
- buzmcg, on 12/07/2007, -0/+2I want a super-laptop!
- Croathlete, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Ohhh.....the Apple fanboys are touchy today =)
- oggydefl, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1A Pakistani midget chick with hairy forearms.
- Ireland, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Now "that's" funny!
- brandonmccall, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1I'll be a little upset if Apple releases a 3G iPhone so soon. I haven't even owned my iPhone for 6 months. And where can I find a refurbished Macbook for $749? Let ME know.
- frostbyt, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1Anytime....call me.
- edstate, on 12/06/2007, -0/+1If the FHD is swappable, then 64G wouldn't be so bad... If it's more on the 10-11" side it will sell much, much better. To me.
- spacechip, on 12/07/2007, -0/+1well yes it's of course a rumor. but i'm pretty sure apple itself announced that a 3G iPhone would be out sometime in 2008. So may or june isn't that wild of a guess. What I'm wondering is if 3G is gonna be in my area by then. (anyone know? western mass?)
