The Guardian is a UK daily national newspaper for all you Johnny Foreigners out there. This is their leader on Saturday, April 1st. A mildly interesting and rather superficial article, but fantastic and very polarised comments!

All rather fun, I thought. :)

if you remember spikey, kela, and john123...that's pretty old school
if you remember when ensign paris was newtonman, that's old school
if you remember when i had way more posts than anybody else and changed my name to networkman...so eyelikeart could take the lead in posts, then you are old school
if you remember blakespot frequently posting here, then you are old school
I match all of these! I am January 4th 2001!!! I remeber when evey news article was approved by blakespot:) Eye is only 3 days older then me. I guess I am one the few remaining 'true' old skool people:) Just look at my sig one of the four old musketeers;)
I loved the sphere rumors and the dodecahedron:eek:
Hey the sphere was half right just look at the new iMac!
Post-888 that is one cool number, so many 8s.

Money :(
I'm sorry that we all forget this point. Apple is a company, which we love dearly, but must please the shareholders. They will put the most economical package that will sell and make them a profit (and hopefully will not loose their base).
I think Apple may be clearing out the processors to move to quad Power4's with true DDR, terabyte HD's, a bulit in video subsystem from nVida which will come with a free cinema display (to make room for the new 50 HD flat panels) for about 2000 bucks ;)

I'm not sure what you mean by "rare" e-mail addresses. They're all equally rare...there's one of each.
Who on earth would want a long address like that?
Generally, people prefer short usernames (though they can be more susceptible to spammers who get it just by guessing), but those are snapped up quickly at public e-mail providers.

INFO TO KNOW FROM A PC AUIDO GEEK:
and this just now made the news... just so you unkowing ones know ....HAHAH this meathod works with any song, any platform, any format, any service, you name it!!!.... its the oldest trick in the book.....
HAHAH you can encript auido ALLL YOUUUU WANNNNT... but the music coming to your head phones is ANALOG.. not didgital... *your ears cant decript one's and zeros*.. and its recordable.. so run that out put into some good PC recording equiptmment... get it as a wave- let some program hash it into an MP3... and there you go... your own digital copy of "ENCRYPTED" music. OH AND WINAMP isnt the only progam that dose this though your soundcard... almost every "music making" program on the planet- that allows you to record- has this feature. HOWEVER the catch to this trick is noise, interference, and sound quailty loss.... HOWEVER this can easliy be twarted by using good semi pro/professional recording equiptiment ... and or track mastering and cleaning programs.... AHHAHAH i knew it was only a matter of time before this one finally got into the media...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
FOR THE MAC DUDES HAVIN ISSUES WITH ITUNES DOWNLOADS:
IF mac towers are able to use 3rd party sound card systems like PC's do.. then every thing i just stated should work.... but i havent had the pleasure of trying it...so i cant be sure.... But there are other ways.... tooo for this "trick" to WORK
you can take the sound output of your compouter/ipod and run it though a tape deck, DV deck,- record it- then using a program like FCP or sound track... or a 3d party one... run the auido back though the machine.. and have it record it... OR
go out and buy a CD-R burner Sterio system unit... run the out put into it- it will record it to the disk... take the disk and pop it in to the mac pull the track to the desktop and use sound track to trim......
... or you could not do any of this and just download the tracks off LIME WIRE...
OH AND for all of you that are saying that this crazy ass PC method is ILLEAGLE.. its not.... becuse it dose not fall under anthing digital these are analog meathods... when the program *winamp* caputres the auido off the card its not re-digitizing it- its sampling the cards wave out put that is being sent out to your headphones... so winamp is acting like a virtual casset recorder... and because its the analog that being capured all aplicable laws fall under analog baised copy right acts even though the track in the end is a digital .WAV track... However as soon as you convert it into an MP3 and put out on LIME WIRE or KAzaa then your in violation for distribution. its a very thin line to walk but its not Illeagle.
BUY THE WAY THIS WORKS WITH ANY STREAMING AUIDO ASWELL!!

if this isn't a clue for apple to get of their feet and give us a 19-20 LCD at MWP then I don't know what is. the numbers speak for themselves. they look just as good as apple's LCDs, they have the same 2 port USB hub in the back. I know if they don't upgrade their monitors before end of september im going with formac. sorry apple

Do you work for Formac?;)
That's a great monitor...and Apple has definitely been resting on old tech in their LCDs...
I say a refresh across the whole line is in order.

Personally, I'd go with the El Capitan case for good and not complain. :) The handles are great, the flip-down side is invaluable, now all they need is a front-mounted USB and FW port and I'll be happy!
I agree it's a fantastic case. The new innards with easily removable carriers for everything is a god send. I do agree on the other hand that they could style it differently. Though I think they should stick with the basic design.

Someone should make a program just for you? ;) :rolleyes:
I would hardly say it's *just for me* :rolleyes: The SETI@home FAQ says this:
Q: Is there an OS 9 client?
A: SETI@home can run on computers that have System 7.5.5 or higher installed. See the download page for the Classic Mac client for other system requirements: http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/mac.html.
However, the link is broken.

All i have to say is logo in Illustrator copy and paste to ID no need for eps files anymo!

65 posts in one day :rolleyes: , I'd say the latter.
That's two days actually. Last night after midnight and today.
When I find a message forum I like, what can I say? I get involved. I don't think you'll find much post whoring if you read through my stuff.
Anyway, I also run/own a pretty popular message forum (no where NEAR the popularity of this place) and I've always been suspect of folks that throw others usage into their face as some sort of an "outting."
For me it means nothing more than lots of time stuck in front of a computer and the ability to type 70wpm.

I just remembered my dream last night...it was a brand new wireless mighty mouse on apple's main page. The mouse was slightly larger than the current mighty and had parts in the front that were transparent. The whole mouse was rechargable.
And here's the cool part (I don't know how my brain works this well in sleep), there was an orb that you set the mouse in to recharge that is connected via USB to your mac. And that same orb is what contained the wireless receiver for the mac. Then for classrooms there was a big orb, that looked sort of like an iSub, where you could put 12 mice in all at once to recharge them quickly.
I just wanted to post this in case, I have any sort of prophetic powers, so it's on the record. ;)

If this guy walked into your office today he wouldn't be spewing about the end of Apple :cool:
Don't count on it. Winer has been complaining about Apple ever since the early '90s, when he started marketing UserLand Frontier, a scripting environment for the Mac, just before Apple started bundling AppleScript with the OS. I think he must have felt betrayed, and he's not the type to take feelings of betrayal lightly.
