The Odds at Macworld

Moby Cock writes "Jason O'Grady has posted the odds on what is to be announced at the Macworld Expo beginning next week. Coming in at 100:1 is OS X 10.5 and even money on a new and sexy Intel Mac Minis and iBooks. Gentlemen, start your credit cards."

The odds?

[sczimme]

If this guy is there, I would say the "odds" are well represented.

Nah....

Apple will announce the release of a 3 button mouse after they realized what a hit they had with their 2 button model...

Gentlemen, start you credit cards.

I have a colleague which likes almost everything coming from Apple.
In the last time I have the impression that he is working, here in our company, for nothing.
I told him, that would be much easier, to talk with the payroll, so that they send his salary directly to Apple.

Stupid odds

[Anonymous Coward]

Where the hell are the odds for overblown hype?

The irony

[drsmithy]

From TFA:

Apple has recruited a bunch of former Sony VAIO engineers for the project and the PowerBook successor is rumored to be 20-25 percent thinner.

Oh, man, that's gotta hurt the Mac zealots even more than the switch to intel. Apple hiring *PC laptop designers* to build the next Powerbook.

''Nothing can come good from offering an ultra thin laptop.

The thinner it is, the more suspectible it is to braking. ''

Absolutely. I always slow down very gently when I have one in my car. It is so susceptible to braking, I suspect it would break if I brake too hard.

They forgot the..

Odds that Steve Jobs won't wear black:

999999999-1

I predict

[Zog The Undeniable]

It will be white and the name will begin with "i".

I'm sure they'll keep flogging the iPod cash cow; maybe an iPod portable DVD player?

new and sexy Intel Mac Minis and iBooks

[digitaldc]

Does this mean if I buy one I will get laid for certain?

I'm holding out for

[metamatic]

Mac OS X 10.6 Liger.

Known for its skills in magic.

Well my friend that works at Apple says...

We all know about the U2 branded iPod... you've drooled over the Harry Potter laser engraved iPod... 2006 brings you a new revolution in branding.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster iPod. This iPod includes a non-removable case for your iPod made out of durable foam latex. A respectable amount of "noodly appendages" keep the iPod off your desk and floating mysteriously in the air. This can be had for you and your loved ones for the price of... $599, $100 of which is donated directly to the beer volcano.

Awh shucks, well if it makes you feel better

Don't worry, all those Mac clowns are wrong. The real OS is linux. Feel better now? Now I am off to an extended lunch as gentoo does an essential emerge that is ensure to take the whole working day if I can find the right nice settings.

• Mac users don't produce because they are to busy worrying about scratches.
• Linux package users don't produce because they are to busy sorting out the latest dependency nightmare.
• Linux portage users will start producing right after this compile.
• Windows users don't produce because the last porn page they visited rooted their machine. Or put another way. Everyone is productive on your windows machine.

Wich can only lead to the conclusion that all the real work is being done on OS/2.
