How about this...
A Car iPod that fits into your car just like an aftermarket CD player that has:
AM/FM Tuner
Airport Capability
Rendevus Technology
CD Player?
Hard Drive
So when you pull into your garage your "iStereo" automaticly sences your Mac and connects and downloads new mp3's from iTunes. SmartLists could also be added. ex. you want all jazz music, punch a few buttons on your "iStereo" and when it syncs up it erases all old music and downloads all jazz files.

It sounds like these new technologies might only be used in servers and workstations at first. I imagine the technology may not be immediately ready (and could be too costly, anyway) for desktops and notebooks. :( Maybe in the PM and Xserve, though. :D

I think Adam Iser and Evan Schoenberg and the rest of the Adium gang deserve some serious props here....outside of the apple aps, firefox, and MS Office, Adium is my most used piece.

I dont believe that that will be an apple product.
Unlike the new powermac pics that some guy released and got flamed for, this has no background, no aqua interface, is very blurry, a icon that looks nothing like apple's apple icon, and most importantly, it really doesnt look like a product apple would design.
"to every truth there is a lie and to every lie there is truth"
I think apple is making a PDA/tablet/cell phone type thing, but this is in my eyes definatly not it.

AFAIK form elements cannot be controlled via css in Firefox, or Safari for that matter.

Sounds to me like your world falls apart when people disagree with you. A small island you must live on when you know all options open to humans who have the same capacity to reason as you. It must feel good to know you are right. Funny how the same arguments you use have be used throughout history and have ALWAYS been seen as wrong over time. You are Midas yelling at the waves.
Personally, I would prefer to have a bunch of people like you around to check me when I think I know what is right. I am happy to let people see the world from their own vantage without the need to "correct" them. I have no doubt that you will learn that your child will not follow your dictums without question. And here you are, on a forum with adults, and you propose that we simply roll over and agree with you. Pah! Tell us what you think and let us reason for ourselves. The fact that you agree or disagree with an individual is of no importance - except maybe to you.
My world holds together quite well when people disagree, actually. Better than yours must, especially since history has proven my argument and disproven your morally relativistic approach. That society exists is a testament to you being wrong.
I'm not here to impose what I think is right. I think that all electronic music-playing devices should support all of the DRM models so that regardless of where I get my music legally, I can use it. I don't like that I can have an mp3 player that can't play the music I buy on iTunes, but I've already written the companies involved, as well as my Senator and state and national level Congressmen. I've worked with people who make the decisions about law to bring this issue to their attention. That's not the point here. No one is stopping you from reasoning or thinking, even though it's clear you have chosen not to do so. But that's your right. It's not that I disagree, it's that the law disagrees. Independent of that, on a fundamental, moral level, breaking your word (wrt the iTunes TOS) cannot be morally justified. Don't give your consent and agreement if you don't intend to uphold it. Where is your moral compass now? If you don't value your word and don't care about breaking the law and you want to break DRM or pirate music, go ahead. But don't come here and say that it's right to do it, because it's simply not. There are legal ways to address your concerns, and you are not using them. There's no excuse.
EDIT: missed this little gem earlier...
I have no doubt that you will learn that your child will not follow your dictums without question. And here you are, on a forum with adults, and you propose that we simply roll over and agree with you.
I would encourage my children to question and think and come to their own conclusions, just as I encourage students to do in my volunteer work. I'd expect them to stand up for what they believe in, and if they find an injustice, they should do what they can to stop it. That said, if they break the law in doing so, they must also know that there are consequences for that and accept them.
But what you are proposing is not questioning, it's self-serving rationalization. I'm not proposing that anyone roll over and agree with me, because I don't need anyone to agree with me. The law isn't something to agree with or disagree with, there's no room for debate. I expect people to question the law and hold their government accountable, and to act for change when appropriate. That is separate from deciding that the law isn't a good one and just not following it, based on your judgment. It doesn't free you from the consequences. If someone decides that the law that says you stop when the light is red is a bad law and just keeps going, what they just did is wrong, whether or not they get caught or prosecuted. If you do get pulled over, your personal idea that the law is stupid is not going to get you off the hook and you are very much responsible for paying the fines/doing the time.

Wow. That's cool. The crowd seems pretty excited. I think Steve looks a little like Adam Standler there. Am I right?
I always thought he looked kind of like Tom Cruise.

No one should buy a professional workstation if they don't need all that power. It's just crazy. :p

In my opinion, apple would have to do some redesigning on the iMac to fit a 19" on there and not make it look like a beast, and a silly beast at that. And I don't think apple is ready to make any changes like that to the imac yet.

Final Fantasy VI had me feeling for the characters more than any other RPG I've ever played; it really brought a depth to the game that was lacking throughout the entire genre.

It's the only incentive they can come up with that doesn't end up putting a dent in profits. Ram is the cheapest component of the PC right now, so they figure an incentive that doesn't cost them hardly anything is the way to go. I can't say I blame them.

Office 12 will be a simultaneous release for both PC and Mac. It's supposed to be the first release achieving feature parity between the Mac and Windows versions.
Currently Office:mac 2004 is, in my opinion, a superior version to Office 2003 for Windows.
oooo!!! That's cool.

Its ok. I like Safari more, but it is a nice browser.
[FLAME-RETARDANT] It's just a personal preference.[/FLAME RETARDANT]
Thunderbird is a browser now? :eek:
I might upgrade, although I've not had any issues with the version I have, 0.8, or 0.7. Something like that. If there aren't any goodies, I doubt I'll bother...
But yeah, Thunderbird is a really, really nice email application, Howard. Do try it out.

I think it goes to show you that Apple has the model right, when they set up the iTMS. I'm sure running a movie studio help Steve guide the set-up of On-line Music. Koodos to Apple for getting it right the first time.

Why do you have to be registered to download the program? I think it's kind of annoying. Is there any particular reason that you did this?
It's still beta software, and I'd like to know who has downloaded it so I can email them if I find a dangerous bug.
Registration is free, and so is the application at this stage, so I don't think it's too much to ask.
Just in case you were wondering, I haven't found any dangerous bug's and I haven't emailed anyone, yet.

So much for the much vaunted sandbox. A few lines of Javascript and it's gone. It's not the fact that there's a security hole, but that there is so obvious a one - Sun must really not give a damn. I am going to disable Java in all my browsers now and forever. Sun, you are total losers.

I haven't seen any real difference between the tabbed browsing in FF and Safari. What feature are you talking about? :confused:
The main difference for me is that Firefox's method for closing one tab is annoying to me.
I also prefer the gray look of Safari (stands apart from pages instead of blending in with white pages and adding to the Inredible Creeping Web Clutter) , the black icons (ditto on the clutter) and the compact toolbars... at first it makes you think, "where's the rest of the browser?" And then you're GLAD Safari fits the same stuff in less space. (But I do turn on the Status Bar.)
