Thats all " What if, What if, What if" and pure speculation............everyones got an opinion......usually, most people have one AFTER someone has done something.

If history has taught us anything, Apple will do something innovative and cool........and we will buy it because its cool and useful, like Apple products have always been.

Hello. I must say PMoshay, that is a radically different attitude towards Apple than I remember. Last thing I remember you posting, was a thread last year in which you were saying that Apple was a liar and that thay could be responsible for ruining the music business.

What changed?

As for the article, I agree. Much Ado About Nothing.

For an insider's view on Apple...

Spoken like a true PC user ...

Actually, i see the entire computer world messing up... with the direction of both Microsoft and Apple towards overly complicated operating systems.

Now i use an old Mac running OS9 for PT, but i have a PC running XP Pro for Giga and the internet.
Yesterday i spent half the day trouble shooting the PC, cause i had to force quit one app., which messed up the registry, which messed up Windows, which messed up... well, you get the picture.

But to keep it fair, with OSX updating every few weeks, how can any Mac user keep from being in upgrade hell. Unix, a DOS like OS with a GUI that looks like a Mac...explain to me why OS9 couldn't be updated to kick OSX's *****?

I guess i'll wait for the dust to settle... maybe we just need a third choice... yeah... don't hold your breath!

Apple future is simply like apple present, money, money.
With Dell, Apple is the healthiest computer maker in the world.
Apple needs to have iPod separated because if you get into a shop now, you can find iPod only in the Apple division, this is very bad. Whith a separate brand and channel, you will find iPods alongside all the others brands

and if "...Apple Store will become the ONLY store where you can buy a Mac....."
THANKS GOD!
