Testing "all the possible hardware configurations available" doesn't sound necessary.
So now they want more money (because it's actually working) and they want to basically make it stupid for you to buy an album from iTunes because they are more expensive than the $12.99 you can pay at Walmart.
How do they plan to run 1080i HDTV (1Gbps if its YUV, 1.5Gbps if its RGB) over 800Mbps IEEE1394? Are they going to require users to buy a optical IEEE1394 (1600Mbps/3200Mbps) card? How many devices out there support IEEE1394 over an optical medium?

The "sonar pinging" he's refering to is a radio altimiter.
GPS + WAAS may replace the ILS someday, but they need to get a better solution for "the last hundred feet."
My computer is my TV and stereo.
Living in a dorm, its convenient to have workstation+game console+TV+stereo all in one.
15 devices on a 320MBps bus vs 12 devices each on their own 150MBps bus...
4GB/200GB = .02 = 2%, not 1%
I seem to remember that existing on the G4 and getting dumped for the G5.
MSI has a product called TV@nywhere, lets you stream TV over the network.
Then use RDC to login remotely to change channels.
No WalMart... lame.
I've heard that they're up to 35%, but I cant find any good sources.
Its a lower quality screen than the Cinema Display.
And if the RIAA wins?
Thats going to be one hell of a bill for the copyright infringer.
He bought his when the 20GB iPod was $400 or $500.
The iRiver is now under $270.
Whats your source for the 35% figure for WMT? That incredible growth on their part.

Actually, Quartz does an extremely good job of displaying 6.2 megapixel images on the desktop even on slow and old Macs.

Dare I ask what is the point of putting a 6.2Mpix pic on a 2.3Mpix (for the 23", in reality most macs are in the

You did not just suggest putting a turbine in a Ford Fiesta!
Airplane engines are typically low rpm (analogous to low clockrate). But nice try :)

Congratulations, you confused bits and bytes.
Since when is Power a CISC processor?

Imola (F1 race in San Marino) is a week from Sunday (in the early AM). Thank goodness the week is over by then! :)
Why transcode and lower the quality again?
Apple has already abandoned that. See the latest from NERD, Coldplay, etc.
The WD Raptor and Maxtor MaxLine II can both transfer faster than 50MB/sec, sustained. See storagereview.com
