Hopefully that something invovles isight/front row displays that are more reasonable in price.
Agreed. Dream prices:
20"= $450
24"=$600
30"=$1000
They could always fill the $2k dispay spot with a 50", HDTV Capable display that supported 20 million pixles :D

The 2.0Ghtz versions were upgraded to 1GB Ram minimum (up from 512).
But does the 1GB use one memory slot or two?

Maybe it is referring to support of Adobe Air SDK for the iPhone. Maybe this is the SDK they have been talking about?

iTunes 7 installed just fine... gapless detection taking forever for about 4800 songs...
CD-TEXT option... YEAH!!! I never updated to 6.0.5, so I'm not sure if it is new... but new for me - FINALLY!

lol, please be honest, in next 5 years, you will need only update windows once (XP->Vista), and you will need to update OSX at least 3 times. Apple is ripping people off on this, there is no question about it, all these ".1" incremental update should not have a price more than $60 at all.
Or you could just update from OS X 10.1 to 10.5, for $129. That would be equivalent to updating from XP to Vista, because you would have gone 5 years without a significant upgrade. If you don't think the incremental features of a .1 update are worth the price, then don't buy it...
And if you really want a bargain, buy a family pack to use on up to 5 Macs in your home. Only $199. Try that with Vista!
And those who say that this is just an upgrade price are incorrect. This is the full retail price for a complete boxed install set.

Battery life? Not saying it isn't worth it to you. Just saying, there are trade offs (which you are well aware of, most likely).
None that I'm aware of... my battery is getting pretty old now, but in the beginning I was getting 3 to 4 hours out of it on average.
This was the same as I was getting when it was running Vista Home Premium.
Power management has been pretty decent on the Dell from 10.6.2 on up to 10.6.6.
Down to about 2 hours now. This is due to an old and very heavily used battery over the last 3 years. Battery meter is already telling me to replace the battery due to low battery life.
I'll just buy another laptop since a new battery costs about half the price of a new laptop.
Battery Life, build quality, customer support...all big things.
Build quality on my 1525 is on par with many Apple products I've owned.
Battery life is similar. Remember, Apple and Dell get their batteries from the same manufacturer. ;)
And Dell support for their hardware is top notch.
When the track pad went out on mine they replaced it with no questions asked. If it's still in the warranty period, Dell will fix it regardless of what OS you're running. They will simply run a hardware diag to see if it's a legitimate hardware failure. If yes, the defective part is replaced.

Here is a copy of an e-mail I sent to the FTC and DOJ yesterday (by way of copy from an e-mail to David Porter, the offending Wal-Mart executive). I urge everyone to do something similar:
Send to dporter@walmart.com, antitrust@ftc.com, and antitrust.complaints@usdoj.gov
Dear Mr. Porter:
By this letter and by copy to the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice I hereby notify you that your reported behavior constitutes numerous violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act and the Federal Trade Commission Act. As reported in a wide variety of sources, you have been meeting with the heads of large movie studios and threatening to purchase fewer or return product from those studios that agree to distribute movies over Apple iTunes service (see, e.g., http://www.macnn.com/articles/06/09/22/wal.mart.threatens.studios/). This is an egregious restraint of trade that severely effects interstate commerce. News reports indicate that you have already "punished" Disney by returning thousands of DVDs and refusing to sell them. Because Wal-Mart sells 40% of the physical DVDs in the United States, you are in a privileged position and are abusing your market power. You are seeking to obtain concessions to sell content at Apple's prices (which does not include the manufacture, shipment, and sale of a physical item). Apple has innovated - something WalMart is incapable of -- and WalMart now wants to take advantage of Apple's innovation.
I urge the FTC and the DOJ to open criminal investigations into your behavior. In addition, your conduct violates your own "Corporate Code of Ethics," making a mockery of your supposed corporate values.
You should be ashamed of your luddite and monopolistic behavior.
Bravo, sir! I wrote a similar complaint to the Department of Justice. If everyone here wrote one, we might actually see some effect; big corporations and institutions seem to believe that for every single person who sends out a letter there are at least 20 other people with the same opinion. (A good example: the Janet Jackson 'wardrobe malfunction' backlash. Who really cared about that other than the people who wrote the FCC? Practically no one...)

As much as I love them, all of Apple's designs are getting old. The Macbook (nee iBook) has looked the same (minus a few paint jobs) for over 5 years; the current iMac design harkens back to the eMac (yes, I know, its flatter, what an innovation...wheee), which in turn was highly derivative of the original iMac. The MacBook Pro is just an AluPB, which in turn was merely a revision of the original Titanium G4. Now, the "new" iPod nano is nothing more than a iPod mini that went on a diet, and the full iPod, although much sleeker than its predecessors, is still essentially the same design as the iPod that came out in 2001. And the story goes on: the Mac Pro, a warmed over PowerMac G5; the Airport/Airport extreme, essentially unchanged since its release; the Airport Express, a power adapter with flashing lights; the iSight, unchanged since its release; the Mighty Mouse, same design as the Apple Pro Mouse, etc. Essentially, the only new designs in the last three years have been: the Mac mini, the iPod shuffle, and the Cinema Displays, none of which could be considered to be attention-getters. Even the new, unreleased "iTV" is copying the Mac mini design. Not too impressive for a company which claims high design as a main benefit. Where is the new cube? the iMac (& G4)? the tiBook? There is nothing fresh or innovative about their current lineup, nothing exciting or innovative.Instead, its all inoffensively sterile, to my eyes; walking into an Apple store has become similar to walking into IKEA, nothing unexpected, just clean lines. It's like they've become artistically constipated. Or is this just what we get for Apple's new push on "competitive prices"?
In my opinion, its time for some fresh blood, someone with a new vision. And yes, I'm looking squarely at you, Steve and Jonathan. I want to be <i>excited</i> again, and not just by the "guts" of the computer. I, for one, miss the Macworlds of 5 years ago...

halo = quake rip off.
Quake (1996)= Marathon (1994) rip off. The inaccuracy of your statement is that Bungie made both Marathon and Halo (2001). :p
Ok, what I want to know, is the Master Chief around? I never understood the ending of Halo 3. But I figured it out after reading this Halo3 Wikipedia link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_3). If you did not finish the the game on LEGENDARY, they withheld part of the story and misled you!! Bastardos! ;)
My preorder of Halo Reach is enroute.

Yippee! If only they had an improved video card.
sadly Apple has been very depressing when it comes to offering better graphics chips. Apple even is poor at doing incremental updates.
no change in either laptops. sucks.

an iMac with touchscreen ...hmmm where did i see that before
aah i know in the past
the iMac with touchscreen existed a long time ago
http://www.elotouch.com/Products/Discontinued/Computers/aioimac0112.asp
and never really took of because of the obvious reasons ... limited practicality , its alright for selecting a mp3 in itunes or so , but not really for much more and every day cleaning the monitor is a nuisance seen the ipad in a apple store horrible full with fingerprints, cleaning a small ipad every day is worth enough, but cleaning a 22" or bigger screen no chance , maybe for some stores or some offices ...but as a desktop at home naaaaa:eek:
if you cant handle mouse and keyboard even a touchscreen wont help you

Er... I'm with the crowd that says there is nothing new on the banner... but what is that Q above the Finder icon? Definately not quicktime... I'm sure its some program that I don't know.
Also why is a cup of tea/coffee up there? There is a small 3rd party prog that uses the icon, I'm just wondering why its up there... perhaps to promote the use of Macs in coffee shops =)
Anybody know about that Q?
Er whoops sorry... here is the pic :) (http://flickr.com/photos/66488342@N00/206062001/in/set-72157594223273881/)
