is the max. ram size still 2 gigs? i like these imacs, but this is not enough for a lot of bioinformatic tools i have to use:( (hm, or better for the bad tools i write;) )
in general you are right. but speed of an application is not only the responsiveness but also how fast you actually get your work done (in case of browser how fast you get your informations). the simplest windowmanagers have startup times lower than 1 seconds but a pain to use. another example, eclipse. it is slow, but programming java in vim is even if you press ctrl+p all the time way too much typing.
well, hope we get something better than the m$office assistants

Yes, absolutly. We had this book in our first semester. I was a bit lazy, but 1 year later, I had to programm a lot of stuff in C++. I used only this book and I got very kind feedback about "my" nice and elegant code. It was cnp in most cases from this book. only 340 pages, but found nearly everything I needed...if you go deeper and want to write libraries, buy "modern c++ design"
