Does it really matter what his parents call him? When he see him online, he's Logicdisorder, and we can look up his posts by that name. His "real" name is irrelevant.
They're mini, they're Macs, therefore they're mini-Macs. Your criticism is really no different to pulling somebody up for mentioning a McDonald's burger. "It's not a burger, it's a Big Mac!"
I know exactly what you mean. An online store was selling some older games for $4 each a while back. I tried to buy 3 of them, and they wanted about $20 for delivery! I did end up getting them, and was surprised to find a $12 stamp on the envelope - what happened to the other $8?
I suspect that PowerMacs (if they're still called that)
The 'Power' name does not mean PowerPC. For example, the old PowerBooks had 68K processors in them. So I expect that they will still be called Power Macs:)
820? That's a very small sample size, so you can't really expect the results to be reliable. Besides, what's your site about? If it's a site full of Windows apps, then there won't be many Mac users. Conversely, if you go to a site like macgamefiles.com, you'll find that Macs have the majority of the stats.
The videos aren't in 3ivx format, they're in QuickTime MPEG-4. QT reports them as being 3ivx if you have the 3ivx codec installed, which is likely where the confusion arose.
Safari 1.3, released yesterday, is noticeably faster than 1.2. I haven't compared it with Firefox though (and don't plan to - the Mac version of FF is terrible).
The thing is, it won't be too long before HD-DVD or BD-ROM drives become standard on high-end computers. And once the drives are there, people will start buying movies for them.
On the other hand, I don't know of any PC-based DVD-A or SACD players. I don't buy either of those formats because I can't play them, but once someone like Apple preinstalls a BD-ROM drive in my next computer then I'll start buying movies to go with it.
OK, my VCR might not respect it (it's a mid-90s General Electric VTH402 if you care), or, now that I think about it, maybe my DVD player doesn't output a Macrovision signal. It's a region-free Philips player.
What does Macrovision do? Currently I can plug the RCA output of my DVD player into the input of my VCR, and record the movie. I thought that Macrovision was supposed to prevent this, but maybe I'm confusing it with something else.
Or, if it wakes you up at the 'wrong' time and leaves you tired, you could potentially turn it off then fall back to sleep, then get up later, forget you're still wearing the thing, and shower with it on.
R3 was the first x86 version, although I'm pretty sure they switched executable formats with R4, which made it faster but everything needed to be recompiled. I still have my R3 CD somewhere.

Seriously, I wish a fewer things had clocks on them.
I fully agree there. Why does my car need an in-dash clock and another clock on the CD player?
WARNING!!

The WMV file contains widescreen video, with the black bars encoded into it, making it 4:3. Great fun when you're using a 16:9 screen
That's horrible! There's no way I could justify paying for Virtual PC, plus a copy of Windows, just to run a single app.

Ah OK, I thought it might be fake. Seems not.

Um, you can still shower. It's not like you can't take the shirt off.
Just wait for Casio to make a big solid G-Shock version :)
I don't know about transcripts, but there's a video stream of the keynote here.

Didn't crash mine (OS X.4.1/Safari 2.0) but it managed to open iChat.
Yeah, same for the NZ version too.

Just add that server to your /etc/hosts with an IP address of 0.0.0.0 :)

BeOS failed, so that it attempted to be a commercial product isn't exactly evidence that contradicts the claims of the original poster.
:)
I wasn't trying to contradict the original poster, I was just trying to add more information for the people who don't know about BeOS

Versions 1 through 4, as well as the Pro version of 5, were paid products. There was a free edition of 5, but it lacked features.
