17" and 19" inch iMacs Coming in 3Q

ikioi writes "It looks like Apple will have 17" and 19" flat panel iMacs later this year." It's funny- the publicity photos of the 15 inch macs really make it look a lot nicer then it is. I finally saw one up close a few weeks ago- the arm and screen is super smooth, but the base looks like a cheap toy. That said, larger screens for the iMac definitely push it into a new territory... not sure if it would convince me to buy one, but it sure would add magic shell to the ice cream.

Yeah - lets ramp the price right up for a rackmount machine that no one is going to see when it's mounted in the switchroom. Another great overpriced idea from Apple.

Lord Job's would not like that

"but the base looks like a cheap toy"

How dare you say that? The imac is the most beautiful piece of machinary ever devised. Except maybe the ipod or or the powermac... or maybe.. the macse and the lisa.. I would say more but I must clean lord Job's toliet.

Can't resist calling them Niggers.

You said:
I don't hate the iMac, I think it's just a piece of hardware. But sometimes I just cannot resist throwing baits at the mac lovers, who don't seem to think it is just that - hardware.

What you said, essentially means:
I don't hate the dark skin, I think it's just a skin color. But sometimes I just cannot resist throwing baits at the Nigger lovers, who don't seem to think it is just that - skin color.

Do you now see what people rise to that "bait"? Why people take it seriously?

It is a prejudice and it a prejudice that has real effects--- products don't get ported, you get passed over for jobs, you deal with derision and what is essentially hatred, in a variety of contexts-- airports when you pull our your power book, online when you deal with bigots like you, etc. etc.

We are no more "zeolots" than MLK was. We deserve recognition for having the content of our character to use a better ,though "unpopular" tool instead of conforming to your political correctness.

Think about it.
