Welcome to Macrumors, it is like this all the time. Some weeks are worse then others. You just get used to it!
Seems like you�ll only have something to get used if you expect MR to be something that it is not.
As we all know, some are better than others in terms of getting the release date correct. In some cases, there will be years of discussion about the same device and again and again false positives will come up, telling everyone it�s on the way even though it isn�t
But insight on when something�s going to happen isn�t the singular, or even the primary, purpose of these discussions. They�re an opportunity to talk about what MAY BE released and what sort of functionality/design it will have, how it will work, what the target market (beside us) will be, etc.

TBH the 27" IMac is sounding very tempting with the double TB and SB
why on earth is the HDD not sata-3
i was planning on copping an IMac for my family home, as my parent and sisters love my MBP - but i really do not care if the IMac CPU is 10-15% faster, when the hdd only links to sata3 - as i would of put an owc ssd in!
Guess i will wait for a 2012 re-fresh when apple finally recognises sata-6
i hope, rather than giving us TB - which i love, but at this point in time is a little redundant as there is no TB equipped peripherals available - hopefully a next gen apple cinema display with OLED and TB would also get my cash!

As quite a few people, I have been victim to rather frequent crashes when using the paste command in Word 2011. Nothing seems to help: (real) full clean re-install, removing duplicate fonts, etc, etc.
The crashes were so frequent that I went back to Word 2008. If this is solved I'd be happy to go back to 2011....

My brief experience report (German-language) with a little video clip (http://rossau.wordpress.com/2009/10/02/fernsehen-am-iphone-mit-eyetv/): A realtime and uncut demonstration of "Live TV" on two different Wi-Fi networks: EyeTV hybrid tuner stationary on the Mac and the iPhone in the caf� (as the background noise clearly reveals). As far as I know the first opportunity for watching "Live TV" on the iDevice outside of north america.

I have no problem with Office on my imac. I can't figure out how people think it can run slow. It doesn't do anything processor intensive for 99% of people. Now, Photoshop on the other hand...
Remember this is MS. They take longer to do their programming. When they brought out Mac Office X all they really did was change Office Mac 98 for OS 9 to an OS 10 native version. The upgrade din't come until Mac Office 2004. This is to insure that Mac Office trails Windows Office by some time.
This time around they're going to skip that intermediate step & convert & update at the same time. This takes time. Also they have a stated reply that they will not come out with the Universal Mac Office 2007 until 6-8 months after the Windows Office 2007 is out. They say this is to help insure compatibility between the Mac & Windows versions. Since the Mac Unit can have inter-company information about what it takes to be compatible, we must actually add several months to that time.
Adobe is following the same course. They are also rolling the change to Universal into their next scheduled upgrade.
For most things MS Office we may be better off keeping our G3, G4 or G5 Macs for those things or run MS Office under Rosetta. MS Office Mac 2007 will have many changes in looks, operation & file format. This will cause a learning curve that may scare a lot of MS Office users away from updating/upgrading to the newest version.
Unlike most Adobe User's that are waiting for an Universal Version to speed things up, Mac MS Office User's are eager for the Universal version of Office, they are not so sure about the program changes. I've used Windows Office 2007 & am not fond abut how much screen it wastes.

With such a great delay the XServes are coming at the same time Intel will release the first Quad-Core Clovertown CPUs.
Is Apple delaying so much in order to ship the XServe with Clovertown instead of Woodcrest?

Magnesium is also used for underwater and air flares. So, I suppose if you're out at sea and your diving lights go out, you could tinder the ol' iPod as an underwater torch. Or, maybe if you're being chased by heat-seeking missiles you could ignite your iPod and toss it out the window...
I'm sure whatever they do it will be fine, though...

iCal has been a disaster for 4 OS X releases now. It is, without a doubt, Apple's worse application. It's missing functionality, basic functionality, that has been in every calendaring program since 1992.
iCal is a sad example of Apple going to far to the extreme of minimization.
All I really wanted in the last 2 OS updates was a decent iCal. It's the only thing on the Mac that continually hurts my productivity.
I've learned that iCal is just the price of being a Mac guy, and I don't hope for greatness. Heck, I don't even hope for mediocrity. iCal is always going to be slow, inconsistent UI and barely usable.
I'm at peace with that fact now.
I can't say I agree. Mabe it's because I haven't gone and tried other calendering programs, but I use iCal every day and it's a pleasure to use. It syncs events and to-dos with widgets on dashboard, I'm subscribed to some online calenders to keep track of lost and 24, amung other things, and it's all colorful and organized and looks great. Sure, theres definitely potential for upgrades, but I think it's great as is.

I can't wait!! iLife '11 Is exciting, I hope iWeb gets better and can actually make your site look less templateed
Is it too soon to hope that iWeb will be html5?
not sure about that, I think they always used quicktime for Video
Just to go all conspiracy theory, what about a new MacBook Air and iLife '11? Both are already very late :d

That should be "hand" as in a poker hand, not "hat." I can't even think of how "hat" would make sense. :D
Haha, darn, I thought I might be the first one to mention that. And Lion's gate "tipping off" about the itunes movie downloads... does that mean the basketball game has begun? :) I think for "tips off" to be used correctly, it needs an object noun. For instance, Lion's Gate tips off the media. The diction used here kind of confused me.

Limited only to Apple devices would mean it would be DOA. Sorry but being limited to costly Apple devices is a huge issue over all on why I do not buy movies from Apple Store and sure as hell would not stream this.
Netflix to my 360 I like because that reduces me having to buy some other device. Netflix works with other things I want/need and does not require me buying some special box to watch it on my TV.

Anyone bought the 11" Air even though they knew the 13" may of been a better choice and far as productivity and spec's are concerned?
I had both, I choose the 13" MBA for 'practical reasons' ... I'm on my computer a LOT, a larger screen typically means more productivity, more power can come in handy, as can the larger HD and SD slot .... and the 13" isn't really that much less portable than the 11".
Decision made, right? Wrong.
I really miss the 11. What is it that is so damn compelling? For me it's not the price difference ... it's just that perfect size I guess ... so super easy to grab and go, do work on, it just works and is inviting to use, perhaps the most inviting notebook I've ever used.
Anyone else feel the same way or have the same experience?
If so what size did you end up with and why?

when it comes to the "survival of the fittest", it may well be that the "fittest" is a person who can work well with other people within a social environment
Exactly.
Adults that can survive on their own.
Do you honestly think that the whole concept of society came about thousands of years ago because of coincidence? Or because there just wasn't enough room on the planet for every family to be isolated and self-sufficient? In terms of almost every single conceivable situation, humans can do more together than they can alone. There is no weakness in relying on each other in times of prosperity or catastrophe - in either situation people can achieve more as a tight-knit, empathetic group. Where the group falls apart is when the whole "gotta get mine" and "screw that family, I have to look out for my own spouse/kids" mentalities enter into it.
In the USA, I would argue that we treat each other like **** even under normal conditions a lot of the time. The absolutely inspiring thing about the Japanese (and what I assume was the point of this thread) is that they seem to have not sunk to our level, even in the darkest, most panic-filled, survival-mode scenario imaginable. Their culture is surely imperfect, but even if this story is exaggerated and sugar-coated, it would still be amazing even as half-truth.
A country used to looting other countries, should not be surprised when it happens at home.
Oof. The truthfulness of that stung a bit. ;)
