40-50k ppd running -bigadv
2)home built rig in server box
i7 980x at stock speed
12 gigs of ram, Ubuntu Linux
?? ppd standard a3 units
this is the one that will get windows and a gtx 480 so it can run -bigadv + gpu
3)home built rig in server box
i7 920 at stock speed
6 gigs ram, Win 7
??ppd standard wu
2x gtx 275 gpu 7k ppd each

2x gtx 275 gpu 7k ppd each
1x gt 260 gpu 4k ppd
Update: on PPD the gtx 275's are getting more like 9k ppd and the gt 260's are getting about 7k ppd

I think the point today was made that Apple, Inc is not longer Apple Computer, Inc.
Announcing computer stuff along with the non-computer Apple TV and iPhone would have diluted that message. :confused:
If there's any company that knows how to keep in the media limelight, it's Apple. My guess is that they're going to let everyone speculate about the Apple TV and iPhone for a month or so and when the press dies down for them, then they'll have another press event for Tiger and iLife.
Besides, Vista's big consumer launch is at the end of January. What better time to steal the media limelight back than to announce software right after that?
How many "events" did Apple end up having last year? It was almost ridiculous! :)

Well, for as little as has changed from 10.4 to 10.5, I'd put my bets on vista having more bugs.
is there somewhere in vegas a bet going who's first? vista or leopard? and who has more bugs at release day?

No Woodcrest arcoss the board in the Mac Pros? BOO HOO!!! I hope the new monitor rumor is true. I am eyeing up a nice 23" monitor to go along with my new (Woodcrest based?) Mac Pro.A Conroe is fine too? If we get a nice lower priced Conroe tower. I have a weird feeling we're not going to see the Quad G5 go away yet.

Next, tongue forking.
seen it done, not pleasant
i have seven peircings now, plan on probably two more, considering a tenth.
they are fun, really dont hurt, and they are removable if you end up not liking them in the end.
but they aren't for everyone, and i doubt that this will be 'just a phase' for me, as i can see keeping some of these for quite some time, if not for the rest of my life.

I agree with you. I went from 10.(1) to 10.3 and found a HUGE improvement. When I went to Tiger, it just got better. Better connectivity for wireless and talking to other computers. Trying to get the Mac networked to Windows was a headache, with Panther, it was easier, Tiger got it to the point where you didnt have to do much at all!
Now though, I can see some parts of Tiger's flaws. You get the impression theres a hole somewhere, but that said, its ALOT more stable than the other OSX releases. (In my experience anyway)
I've owned wvery version of OS X including OS X Beta. But I did not use OS X on a daily basis until version 10.2. Until then, in my opinion, OS X was not ready for prime time use.
Now I'm running OS 10.4.8 on my Intel Mac Pro. There's still several things missing in OS X when compared with OS 9. But everything is more stable. I've had several kernel panics plus countless system lockups. Also many programs will freeze & have to be force quit to free things up. Mac OS 10.4.8 is much more stable on my MDD G4 PowerMac & 17" G4 PowerBook. It seems like Mac OS 10.4.6 started out with the Intel Macs, with 10.4.7 installed on my Intel Mac Pro.
Mac OS 10.5 should make a bigger difference to the Intel Mac than the PPC Macs. Having several PPC Macs & only 1 Intel Mac, I hope that Apple continues developing the Mac OS for the PPC Macs. I wonder how long it is before Steve Jobs declares the PPC Mac dead & says like he did for OS 9 that no more development will come.

Best Buy sells all of the big name phones for all major carriers, and they have a dedicated section of the store for mobile phone purchases, so they can easily activate your phone or look up your existing contract. I've had several phones activated at Best Buy and not once have I had a problem.
*** Where is the best place to pre-order at? Or is it better just to wait in line at one of the stores and get it that day? If you pre-order, you won't get it on launch day, 24th, will you?

Whilst you're right that many of us would struggle picking out our favourite beer brands from a line up it would be easy to spot the one that doesn't actually taste of beer at all, namely Budweiser.

Not much of a math person either, eh?
Guess not, if I was selling Fruit on my market stall and someone said, what's your top/best selling item of fruit and I said, oh, Apple's Apples are the No.1 and No.2 best selling pieces of fruit I have, they outsell everything.
Oh, so you sell loads of Apples the guy asks?
No, I don't sell that many Apple's compared to my other fruit.
the bloke leave with a confused look on his face.

Just wondering how upgrading to 8GB will affect XP (32 bit) running under bootcamp? I presume only up to 4GB can be addressed, but does anyone know of any other issues?
8GB won't help in XP 32-bit, unfortunately. 4GB is the max by defintion, and you might not even get the full 4GB (video card's memory might use up some).

Does this also apply to the late 2008/early 2009 white macbook? Or am I still limited to 4GB?
Edit: Nevermind. Reread again saw that the article stated alum Macbooks. I guess I just got a little excited there. At first glance, thought the artice was talking about all Macbooks in general...

Only question. Why?
Some say Apple need to buy Netflix. Have those of you even considered what Netflix charges for monthly streaming?
$8
Apple will never let customers eat that much for so little. The day Apple buys Netflix, DVDs would stop, and streaming would go up to $30 a month.
Promised.
Apple could if they had the massive volume and pricing Netflix has negotiated to get it that low. Netflix in my opinion is already a monopoly, pretty much the only reasonably priced and silly easy to access source (through all five of my devices) for streaming video.

I happen to be in Princeton right now an I can confirm that there are a lot of young people with apple laptops there. When you go to starbucks, you see quite a lot of people with laptops (starbucks has wifi), and 90% of them are Macbook Pros, Macbooks, or 12" Powerbooks. I felt so at home when I pulled out my Macbook. And that one guy with his old dell was so ashamed :p
One reason could be that there's only one computer store in this little town, and this store only sells Macs and iPods.

So that's it? Nobody else from MacRumors is planning to be there? :confused:When I read your thread title I was thinking how I botched it last year ('cause I got free passes and did NOT go) and how I'd like to go this year if only I could get in for free. :p
So I guess I'll try to go this year... :D Thanks for posting that link, Flowbee.
:edit: Can the same priority code be used multiple times? Wanna register the bf, too.
:edit again: Same priority code can be reused. :p
