How does that make your Mini any better or worse? I mean you may or may not like the rumored move, but it doesn't make your hardware work any differently, nor does it affect anything relating to your current hardware.
I have a Powermac g5 and a g4 Powerbook, and if Apple goes with Intel to get products out the door faster than with IBM, great! If not, great!
Again, if you like your Mini, I don't see how the fact that it was going to be obselete in a few years anyway is changing.
Not only is the article total speculation, the title is worded in a manner that makes it sound like a video iPod is coming, and the proof is below. The link goes to some kid's blog site with his wish list and some links to mac rumor sites.
I have no problem with some speculation of what's coming next, but this isn't 'news', so let's not label it as such.
I'm not arguing that bands make money off their album. But sorry, I'm not going to buy a t-shirt or go to their shows.
I want quality, recorded music. Not a 'show'. Neither of us are wrong. We just want different things out of our music.
However, buying albums is exactly what helps bands survive. Hell, it's the ONLY thing that lets a signed band survive. The ONLY reason labels keep bands around is due to their CD sales. So, in reality, we're both doing our part. I'll keep buying the CDs, and you can keep going to the shows.
I disagree. I enjoy the live show as much as the next guy, but saying the studio album is simply an ad is a bit naive. I'm way too busy (and live way too far away from any decent venues) to see every band I enjoy playing live.
The album format may be dying (slowly, but yes, it's dying), but for someone who spends way too much time in a car or at work, live music (and ESPECIALLY merch - I don't want a t-shirt of my favorite band... i just don't care about such things) is not a viable way for me to support artists.
Does it have anything to do with the fact that they're in different orbits? I know most satellites are in a higher orbit than the shuttle is, so maybe they're less debris up there?
I think that while marketshare may go up a few percentage points (maybe nearing 10% at best), profits would actually shrink.
Moreover, companies like Macromedia, Adobe, etc would have to port their Mac software BACK to the x86 platform and provide updates for the ppc and x86 versions of their software.
I just don't see it happening. If OS X ever goes to the x86 platform, Apple will be switching over full force as well. But you're not going to ever be able to just pick up a copy of OS X for your Dell PC.

...more often than even Apple is these days.

Knowingly revealing (and soliciting, no less) trade secrets is in fact illegal and not protected as 1st amendment speech.

All reports have Tiger running BETTER on G4s than Panther does.
"There is definitely more positive than negative with the new banner ads."
Yea, for TiVo.
Yea, or they could have checked the IPs of all the seeders, and gone from there.
In any event, I have no sympathy for the guy.
that's what it sounds like.
MoFo is making some strange decisions as of late...
Oh, they ONLY have a "few" billion dollars. Guess they're not successful, then.
No, I like the way I said it better.
What is a MAC?
Seriously, it's a Mac. MAC is something my network card has.
Shouldn't you be recompiling your kernel or something?
It's 2 weeks i think.
This link used to have relevant info, but it's since been changed:

Once tiger is announced, I'm sure they'll update that page.

I'm not sure either - that's a good question.
/. has turned into a rumor site lately.
What gives?

Looks like Grey Ninja just got 0wn3d!
What's a McIntosh? Some new meal from our favorite fast food empire?
Are you behind a router? Do you have port forwarding enabled?
It sounds to me like you are behind a router/firewall and the packets aren't being routed properly.
The same reason people say M$ and WinBlows ....
Sadly, I'm not quite sure what that reason is.
When will people stop referring to Apple computer company as "MAC"?
Not only does MAC not make the Mac Mini (Apple does), MAC is an acronym, not to be confused with Mac(intosh).
I don't know *why* this bothers me so much, but it does.
at least spell Inauguration correctly if you're going to make some silly post about Bush.

As someone already said - 2004 called, they want their liberal whining back.
Then any malware that found it's way onto the ISP's copy of the OS would in effect corrupt every user out there, yes?
I'll take my chances with my own computer, thank you.
