I hope Apple isn't going to sell these movies at the same quality as their current video downloads.
As of now, the only thing they are good for are iPods; on a computer screen it looks terrible.

How many iPods in the US are actually sold in Apple Stores?
We in Holland have "Apple Centres" (look similar to Apple Stores, but are not owned by Apple), and they ofcourse sell iPods. In theory there is no difference in the iPod's halo-effect IF they are bought in a US-Apple Store, or a Dutch Apple Retailer's Stores. Consumers buy iPods while surrounded by great Apple computers.
Trouble is, that most iPods sold are bought in places like Dixons, or other large consumer-electronics store. No halo-effect, 'cause there are no Macs, and if there were any, hardly any salesperson knows enough about them to actually try to push the sales of Macs.
Is that any different in the US? Do the iPod-buyers actually go to an Apple Store to get one? I'm sure the closest consumer-elcetronics store would be much more convenient.
IMHO, it still is a marketing issue. Mac-ads on Dutch TV?? Most people don't even know Apple make the iPods! (:eek: ) If they see an iMac, some even call it the "iPod-computer", but have no idea it can do stuff their PC can do too.
One of the best quotes I have heard: "Wow.... you can get iTunes on your... eh... Apple-computer?"

We need Mr. Jobs to give us something like the Ten Commandments!
We need him to tell us how to live when he is gone.
I really hope that data center was built to upload his consciousness.

Are people as outraged by this leak as I am? I can't believe it. He just stole Steve's thunder at a later secret event. This will end up costing Apple the element of surprise and the impact of a special Steve announcement. We've got to punish Lion's Gate somehow. We need to boycott all of their films and show that they cannot mess with Apple. The mothership is under attack! Who's with me? :mad:
If this is tongue-in-cheek, which I can only assume it is, then it's one of the funniest comments I've read on MacRumors :D Brilliant :D

yes, There are lots of reasons why people get bod mods.
I personally dont worry about society, wether I fit in or if I should try to stand apart.... etc There are people who do have that mentality though.
If it makes me happy thats the only reason I do something, Its my life so I dont care what society thinks, I dont worry about social norms, Designer clothes, fancy cars etc, If I like a meterial object I buy it (not caring if its from Goodwill or Nieman Marcus), if I want to pierce myself because I want to accentuate my eyes and brows and if it will make me happy I will.... I live my life by my rules, and dont care about trying to seperate myself from the heard.
I hope you understand what I am getting at.... Im not very wordly
i understand what you are saying, but thats because i live the same way, and if someone cant accept me for who i am, oh well their loss (just glad this new person in my life likes my additions). Piercings and tattoos are not a fad for me, nor are they just simply a form of expression. they are me and who i am. every piercing is different, as is every tattoo, similar maybe.... and i plan on more of both, and i will end up drawing the majority of my tattoos in the end, and they all have significance. the piercings will remain for years to come if i have my way.
i dont do this to fit into a particular crowd, i do it for my own pleasure, and to improve upon myself, to perfect myself, and i dont care what society or anyone else things. i dictate my life.

Oh how nice, instead of AT&T doing the work themselves they are having us do it for free.
**** you AT&T
Sorry, but I don't agree. Their techs can't be everywhere and this way they know where to send their techs to look for issues.

Jobs may be skinny, but he is also getting older... there's nothing out of the ordinary here. Sure he may be a God to some of us (myself included :p), but he is a normal person like you and me. He sounded better at this presentation than he did at the Mac mini and iPod Hi-Fi introductions. He's actually been skinnier for a while now, so I am sure everything is fine. If anything, I think his performance has been improving throughout the year. I'm confident in his health. :)
As for the other speakers... I have to agree about Phil. He seems like a great guy, but his speaking skills are no where near as great as Steve's. Who was the other guy besides Bertron (sp?)? I really liked his presentations. He kept me interested, especially during Time Machine.
that would be scott forstall, vp of platform experience

Good call... it is really humorous to read a lot of the comments, and the best part is the speculation gets more intense with every page. Haha... just funny.
I am really curious to see what Apple has up its sleeves though, (some of their ideas have tanked), but they don't have a huge reputation for disappointment...
not going to search for the comment, which the comment i've quoted here was a reply to, but basically the commenter was saying how stupid it is for people to speculate on an unannounced, rumored product...
as if it were hocus-pocus. we can speculate on products like these because we KNOW they [apple] are going to launch this service soon. it would make sense for an announcement to come at WWDC. as i said in a previous post, Amazon has already launched their service, so we know all the details of that service. therefore, we can speculate based on what Amazon is doing. it makes sense that apple would only allow content purchased from itunes to be stored on their servers. i'm not complaining because it makes sense to restrict storage only to itunes-purchased content. apple also know what media you've purchased from them in the past, and so i would image that all previously purchased content would be able to be stored there as well, but we will see.
no, ultimately we do not know for sure how apple's service will differ from amazon, but we DO know that it will differ in some aspect or another...apple always differentiates themselves from the rest of the pack.

Aluminum seems to hit the spot when it comes to exterior aesthetics, and that seems to be important to them. Can't see it happening unless they can make carbon fiber look just as good.

I'm not so sure about that one, unless it's changed in recent years. My 2008 MP (stock 8-core 2.8, bought right off the shelf) was assembled in the USA, according to the decal on the bottom.
Apple shifted to Foxconn as their sole ODM for the MP in 2009.Not sure this is universally true. I've purchased a personal CTO 12-core last year, and 3 more for business use this year, and all of them were "assembled" in Shenzhen (which really amounts to what exactly, popping in 5870s and upping the base 2.66 to 2.93s in two cases). <-- not done in USA though, tracking just showed direct hop to Anchorage, and delivery, in all cases.
I'm going by what I've seen and had access to in recent years. Either you experienced an exception rather than the general rule, such as insufficient stock at the CTO facility (IIRC, they've even used spare parts to build an entire machine to get an order shipped in one instance I'm aware of), or they're shifting away from the previous methodology in favor of using Shenzen for all of it due to the cheap labor (this wouldn't surprise me actually).
The fact there are CTO facilities located in both the US and Ireland are a shock to me, due to the labor costs manufacturers complain so bitterly about.

This app is a good thing IMO.
The majority of the time I really don't want to call customer service.
The app makes reporting a lot easier, let's just hope that they look at the data and try to fix the black spots...

Macworld reports (http://www.macworld.com/2006/11/firstlooks/rosetta/index.php) that based on their benchmarks, Apple's Rosetta PowerPC emulation technology for Intel Macs has seen up to 30% improvements in the latest version of Mac OS X (10.4.8). Rosetta is the technology that allows Intel Macs to run PowerPC applications (such as Photoshop and Microsoft Office) which have not yet been released as Universal Binaries.
Apple released the Mac OS X 10.4.8 update on September 29th, 2006 and incorporated a number of improvements (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304200).
Meanwhile, Apple is continuing work on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and provided developers with a new seed today (Build 9A303). This latest Leopard build provides ongoing performance improvements and bug fixes, but continues to have a long list of known issues.
While Leopard is officially expected (http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2006/08/20060807161421.shtml) to be released in Spring of there has been some questionable speculation (http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2006/10/20061030141713.shtml) that Apple may be targeting an earlier release. Apple's Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) release will certainly draw comparisons with Microsoft's upcoming Windows Vista release. According to the BBC, Vista will be available (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6130604.stm) to retail customers on January 30th, while corporate customers will be able to get the newest version of Windows starting on November 30th, 2006.
How much closer does that 30% get us to PPC apps running on a C2D as fast as a G5?
I love how MS managed to maximize their publicity by setting two major release dates... Corporations aren't going to deploy Vista in November, they're going to start trials on it, which is what my company would call "Beta".
I hope Apple doesn't hurry up the Leopard release just because of the Vista timeline. A hurry up release is sure to drop features or sacrifice stability. Apple can set their own schedule here-- they've already shown they can deliver much more reliably than MS has managed.
