If the chip industry gets out of silicon, then the demand will decrease and prices will increase for some of silicons other "uses"
we could all be effected
excuse me? i dont mind people who bash apple, but at least get your facts right
the imac is technically a supercomputer, did you not bother to read an article earlier this week about how the U.S just lowerered it's regulations on export of supercomputers? before then, you were not allowed to export g4's to china
the definition of supercomputer is really outdated, but g4's are supercomputers
and also, obviously you are a sucker of the megahertz myth, you cant measure a processor only by mhz, you can say that you p4's are faster, but please dont say it's because of the mhz.
and actually i've checked, try to find my a computer for that price with a QUALItY lcd, and dvd burner? and a QUALITY os..

mac OSX is based on nextstep and freebsd, and it's not a question of if Microsoft will port Office to osx, because they already have, it's been out for months.
I dont really understand this agrument, obviously MS could make a version of Office for linux, but i dont think the osx port would make that any easyer, the gui of mac osx is a lot different from X11.
I know it's not natively ported, but it still works great with wine. And thats the www.winehq.com version of wine, not the commercial versions.
i followed the tutorial at http://lhl.linuxgames.com/
and it took some tweeking, but got it working in an afternoon and I have wasted many hours sense then.
