Also note that most owners of the company - i.e. most owners of apple stock - are institutions - and they use PCs! The owners of the company use mostly pc's not macs. Sure the management uses macs, but not the OWNERS of the company.
The owners are more concerned with the profits.
Ok I will relax now. thanks guys.

What would that have to do with the group of people who buy Mac Pros? They're not business people. They're primarily photographers and video people.
"What the shareholders use" is possibly the most irrelevant point raised in this thread.
Also, as has been pointed out, the iMacs are not that overpriced; especially given the cost of 27" IPS displays.
That said, people have always assumed cinema displays to be more overpriced than they actually were, if only because they weren't making like-for-like comparisons. It's less true now that LCD prices have been adjusted downwards after the price-fixing scandal, but a Dell 27" IPS display is still pretty expensive.
I'm not saying that doesn't have high prices - they do - but very frequently, people are not making a like-for-like comparison. Most notably in screens. I don't know of any iPad competitors that use IPS displays, and make no mistake: IPS displays are more expensive than the competition. Most people also don't care about display technology, but it matters to people in the photo/video field.

Sales are determined by model number. Inventory control is calculated by part number.
Keep trying, though. I'm quite amused.
Actually, if you want to peruse "Press Releases" and cite them as definitive, that's your choice. It just reeks of amateurism and would get you laughed out of any meeting that I attend.

I wonder what hurdles they would have to jump over, to bless the iP6 with legitimate GPS capabilities?
anyhoo...Ive never had a use for traffic monitoring capabilities in GPS. Most of the time its either, "wait in highway traffic 30min or re-route through DC and add 60min to your drive".

What if Google buy Apple someday, not really for the hardware but for the operating system and the iTunes store for content. It would be able to perhaps take Microsoft down to a 50/50 share.....
I don't think it is out of the question.....
Nice try but Gapple? :eek: Dont think so.

He will get a long sentence. He has priors. She was stupid to jump on the hood, but obviously she had no expectation that he would try to kill her! A sane, non-murderous person would stop immediately. Also, he drove a long way and so had a long time to think about what he was doing. He can't claim some momentary rage.

Probably mentioned before:
iLife '07 will have CoreAnimation at a center of it's core [probably] and that is obviously in Leopard only. iLife '07 will be released when Leopard gets released.
Yay, more whining till Leopard. :rolleyes:

I'd have been sold on the 11" if it didn't have nearly 4" worth of bezel. I currently have a 13" MBA and I really hope the next true redesign addresses the bezel issue. I'd love to have a 13" screen on a MBA that has the footprint of the 11" That's really the only thing that will get me to upgrade my MBA. Sandy Bridge refresh is nice, but not reason enough for me to upgrade.
For those 13" owners who are bothered with the fan noise, you really should check out coolbook. I've been running it since I first learned about it and its been fantastic. Battery lasts longer, MBA runs a lot cooler and fan speed has NEVER hit full speed since I started running it.

It's not an iPhone 5, but instead the white iPhone 4 coming this summer.
- iPhone 4 just came out for Verizon
- Availability for white iPhone 4 parts on gray market steadily keeps increasing
- Apple is both changing their release schedule for iPhone (release near xmas with other updated devices), and possibly giving more time to get through the rumored manufacturing issues

I'm glad your not in Apples marketing department. :p
Well, its a better idea than the "I'm a PC, I'm a Mac" video on the homepage :p
I hope they really wow us with the processors they use too.
2.4GHz Conroe on the low-end
2.67GHz Conroe on the mid-range
Dual 3GHz Woodcrests on the high-end

Well, it's been 21 days since the MacWorld keynote; January only has one day left.
And we have seen zero announcements related to the Mac. We have seen iPhone, :apple:tv, AirPort Extreme, and now iPod shuffle and 802.11n enabler announcements, but no actual Mac, announcements, other than a couple new TV commercials, and the official revelation that 64-bit Intel Macs have come with 802.11n hardware.
We have seen no actual new hardware, no new software, not even price changes.
Dammit, Apple, either change the name of the conference to "AppleWorld", or release some freakin' Mac stuff! I've been putting off my HD camcorder purchase to see if iLife '07 will support AVCHD. I would really like to have my camcorder bought before I leave for vacation in the middle of February. At least ANNOUNCE iLife '07, with specs, even if it isn't released. I'd really like an AVCHD camcorder over an HDV, but not if iLife can't edit its video.
Remember, Jobs said they would be some "amazing" stuff coming out for the mac.

In addition to those waiting from the school crowd, there is the christmas buying crowd waiting just around the corner.
I really believe that Apple is going to arrogantly keep to their same slow update cycle despite switching to Intel. This means we probably won't see Core 2 Duo and better GPUs in MacBook /MacBook Pros / mini until MacWorld SF 2007.
Apple really misses the boat by not having up-to-date new product available before the holiday buying season.
Most people do not care or even know what sort of chip or gpu is inside their computers. People here should stop deluding themselves into thinking they are the average consumer and somehow Apple is shooting themselves in the foot by not catering to them.

Love my Android... Sorry Apple, but I can't afford the iPhone.
had both, decided to pay for the iphone instead of having work pay for the droid.
too much fragmentation and too many issues.

Note that I did say Institutional. It's Departmental for me. I normally just use the link off of my campus site to get to the Departmental Store.
Just trying to be clear. You said either either individual or institutional, but you can't get the $899 iMac from the former only the latter, and to make an institutional purchase you must be authorized by the institution. From the link you provided:
Authorized purchasers
Submit an order to Apple if you are authorized by your school or school board to make purchases and you have been issued an authorized purchaser Apple ID and password.

Oh Gosh is this guy our version of the Dell Dude.
Hey, I liked the Dell Dude (too bad he got busted)! And I'm glad Justin will be doing more commercials. I think they're great. My fav so far is the one with the psychiatrist. Of course the home movie one is the most pleasing visually. :-)
