Not anytime soon, Apple's shipping the cinema displays with Leopard as desktop on the boxing now.
So do the MBP boxes still have Tiger displayed on them?

Drag and drop is insanely problematic in Windows. Surely this is not intentional?

DS Download Channel (turns Wii into a DS Download Station)
Extra controller, GBA>GC style but wireless and devs can assume Wii owner has DS because... well... DS.
Upload DS saves to use on Wii games (a la Pokemon)
By DS download station do you mean downloading demos of games like you would in a gamestop

Why on Earth would you expect Apple to ship iWork with it's machines for free? iWork is not MS Works - it's already far superior, and it's still a baby. In one or two more revisions, iWork will be a better overall suite of Apps than Office (which frankly, isn't saying much). It's unreasonable to expect Apple to give that away for free.
I don't know maybe because prior to January every consumer machine shipped since about 1990 has come with a consumer productivity suite and maybe I don't apple to lose sales because of sure stupidity. And yes iWork is like MS works. It is not an office suite, it was never meant to be, and it never will be one. It is the replacement for Appleworks. Hence the name iWork instead of Work Pro. Apple is smart enough to realize that it can't beat Microsoft in the office environment.

Can we get an article on these research companies/analysts? I seriously have no idea who they are, why they dod what they do, and how they make their money. Seems like we could all be getting played just to cause the market to fluctuate so some rich arseholes can increase their ridiculously huge coffers only to work the system so they don't have to pay any taxes.
Wow, sorry for the jaded rant. Tax day makes me grumpy.
But seriously, a spotlight on these "experts" who are quotes for frequently and drive the tech blogs into a feeding frenzy would be welcome.

I am surprised nobody mentioned this yet. Does anyone realize that (and a quote from Wikipedia)-
In Woz founded Wheels Of Zeus (note the acronym, "WoZ"), to create wireless GPS technology to "help everyday people find everyday things."
While Wheels of Zeus was closed in Wozniak immediately founded Acquicor Technology, a "shell" company for acquiring other technologies.
I think that the new iphone/ipod/other appliance may have a lot to do with integrating GPS, or perhaps a GPS chip in mobile computers to help us all find handy things around us, or as Woz said "to help everyday people find everyday things."
I think this is the genius of the Jobs-Woz partnership showing itself again.
After all, how much Segway polo can Woz be playing these days?

Not to rain on your parade but there will never be a game that requires 3D for the 3DS. It will always be optional because not everyone can use it/see it or at the very least can play it for as long before they are fatigued. Game designers probably won't be too keen to limit their market like that for something that would work just as well as a 2D game.
That was kinda my point... I don't know how well the 3Ds will do and if it is successful it isn't going to be because of the 3D. For the 3D to really have much affect I think on making a game player successful, it would have to be part of the experience, not just an add on to make the game prettier. And I think I mentioned I don't think they can do that with 3D (and not cause not everyone can see it, but because I'm not sure what you would really *need* 3D in order to play a game. Unless it was stuff like look behind boxes but I am pretty sure the 3D implemented in the 3Ds isn't capable of doing stuff like that).
As far as iOS gaming and the virtual joystick kludge, I agree. It is like how in some very early console games/programs you had a full on mouse cursor that you controlled with the D-pad. How long did it take them to figure out that was a horrible idea? You have to design for the device, and not many developers are doing it (great examples of how not to do it are the various RPGs with maybe the exception of Battleheart but even that is a bit clunky). Personally, I hope someone ports a game like Aquaria or Ocarina of Time because I think touch based gaming is much better at music than console or keyboard & mouse because it can just give you a keyboard or some other simulation.
I don't know if I said *that* more than I don't think the ipad will make up for lack of buttons to have some advantage over consoles.
I have played joystick games on the iphone and I still enjoy them. Sure, they would be better on another console, but just my own selfish reasons i don't really want to be stuck with just angry bird type games on my iphone. But, so far, I haven't had to. I've found plenty of good rpgs (though honestly for turn based ones I don't think you need buttons to play them, in some ways touch screen is nicer. Instead of having to scroll through a list to pick who you want to fight or what action you want to take, you just tap it) and racing games. And even enjoy the Prince of Persia and Assassin's creed port (both use virtual sticks). The virtual controls are more clunky than a dpad (or even better, a joystick) but they don't make the game unfun to me :). So I personally would vote to still get games that use joysticks as well, even if they have to use a virtual joystick.
Though I suppose if you were to make a game kinda like the for the iphone, you could probably implement some way that you use the iphone's strengths instead as controls.

To wipe your data and reinstall OS X: (this is what you'll want to do, so it's set up as if the new owner was buying a brand new mac)
Insert the OS X install disc
boot your mac while holding C
Go to utilities > Disk utility
Select your hard disk in the top left
go to the erase tab
choose Mac OS X Extended (Journalled) and any name you want ("Macintosh HD" is probably preferable)
security options > Zero out data (only if you're paranoid about the new owner being able to recover your data, if not don't bother)
erase
then continue the install process

My Applecare agreements are regularly shipped separately from my Macs, and usually in advance..
Don't worry. your Mac is coming.
But my order status page at Apple UK site, says that all items been delivered ! Obviously not true, only Apple Care.

Should be? As in Apple is going to put it on there, or said they were going to, but haven't yet. OR Should be, as in YOU think that is what Apple should do?

i think it should be. they're always touting podcasting. why not post their keynote as a podcast? it would be much better than having to sit through a streaming quicktime video.

What about a reinstall?
That's the first thing I tried.. I installed over. I tried uninstalling first by dragging Safari to AppZapper but it "refused" to zap it... I know I can change the preferences but now that I think of, force-removing Safari is not a good idea
I also tried disabling all extensions... still the same problem

Not for nothing unless the dev-team makes an explicit statement of releases like muscle nerd usually does, most of those sites and "news postings" are usually wrong. All we know at this point is that geohot doesn't even own an iPad 2 which means we're no where close.

The MBA is the perfect machine. Able to drive huge monitors for "real work" without hiccup, a fast enough processor for most every task, and light and portable.
The high-res screen alone paired with the 320m GPU makes it the best choice Apple could make. Sandy Bridge with an Intel 3000HD would have made for a much poorer machine.

I've installed a bunch of new Win7 machines over the last days, including Macs, and all installed and updated to SP1 just fine.
Hmm... I wonder why it won't let me update then. I left it on the "installing updates" status for like 4 hours and it was still at 0%. I'll try again tonight.
