Apple have approximately 20% margins on hardware.

20%, my arse!

The fact that a replacement power supply for a G4 is £199 is the reason I have never bought a Mac.

Incidentally, its £299 if you want to actually keep the old power supply!

Don't forget to pay your $699 you cock-smoking teabaggers! :-)

Sony should go for FP with Blueray. They've had the players ready for about three years now, but still no concrete specification (correct me if I'm wrong).

Sony have the content, so they should get their arses in gear and get some discs out the door.

wheee!
