I was grumpy as heck at how long it’s taken for the iPhone to show up in Japan, but now it looks like it was all for the best! The new one will be faster, better and cheaper!
I’ll be able to ditch my POS Motorola at the same time I return to the Mac fold by getting rid of this POS Dell.
PC? never again!
Snow Leopard will target computer performance, a perceived weak spot for Vista. Apple says Snow Leopard will be optimized for multicore processors -- the new wave of computer chips -- and tap into the vast computing power of graphic processing units.
Sure sounds like a good way to clear the path for speech processing.And also, a side note, Folding. No doubt Steve will also exploit this capability to produce some eye candy for sales purposes.
My first computer was the Mac SE. I switched to the PC because of the software availability issue for Macs. Has this situation changed? If so, I may well switch back.

I just got a brand new Mac since my beloved 7 1/2 year-old Mac finally turned toes up and died from a severely impacted hard drive. Hey, I’m just a home computer user without enough knowledge to know how to take its temperature. It was HEROIC to have lasted so long.
My new Mac is OSX 10.5.3, Intel Core 2 Duo, whatever that means.
Naturally, as with all computers, there’s no real manual, so my question is: Do I have Boot Camp? It does not show up on Spotlight. And if I don’t have it, would my new computer like it??

If it were any other company, I’d be interested. But Apple permanently lost my business over 20 years ago with their extreme politics and their Mac “evangelist” movement later cemented my decision forever.
I’ll stick with a PC and Microsoft - plus I won’t be shut out of beta testing software in genres I prefer which is just icing on the cake.
Nice specs though. The competition will benefit the market.
