With laptops and desktops there is quite a few drivers bloated that are needed to fully use it but some of things that are preloaded are not that bad I don't want M$ to go any ware near bullying OEMs into only including Vista-certified apps because if they can put that off what is stopping them for making it a pain in the a** to run non certified apps with end less UAP like pop-up's. Things like that would hurt open source software.
why no new mac systems / hardware? Where is the duel quad-core macpro? If apple does not go to quad-core soon dell and others will be able to have better systems for less.
Way no head less mid-rage mac? This is need to get mac into more homes and business.
$499 (4 gig) $599 (8 gig) with a 2 year plan is a lot and Cingular forces you get a smart phone data contract plan with a smart phone to get the 2 year deal price. It is $ 40 just for the data. So like you will $60 + month $40 for data $20 + for voice.
new cable boxes have cable modem build in to them they even get there own IP. also you don't not what to force people buy cable internet net with cable tv. I have cable tv and dsl.
This is what apple needs the mini does not count as you can get in as easy as an desktop, it uses higher cost laptop parts, and it has the pos gma 950 that is very slow with vista and likely will be with 10.5 3d desktop.
Apple needs a head less desktop with desktop parts and the mac pro costs too much for basic desktop uses.
Also APPLE IF YOU RELAY WANT TO GET IN TO CORPORATE MARKET coming with mac osx for all hardware!

I think that Cingular and or apple will be able to SELL you apps at high prices.

I think that Cingular will yet switch to this phone while you are still under a older contract from them.

Apu has a sign saying CASH ONLY
With amd the lowend starts with a good video card with intel you get GMA 950
replace usb with firewire or e-sata
And the macpro cost is high and the mini is low end and hard to open.
They need a mid-end system that does not have a screen build in.
Have You ever been on I-294 the trucks do 70+ on that road also trucks can stop as fast as a car.
If The car is slowed to a halt on a high speed road then you can get rear ended.
Also abnormal steering can come form trying to get a round a road hazard.
corporates don't like the idea of AIOs
