I was actually trying to purchase a Powerbook 15" but the store went down, I doubt new powerbooks but maybe some refurbs?

Can you say iMac?

Randman · May 3, 2005, 07:08 AM

Why is this in the lounge? Then again, maybe it should be. I dunno.

storer · May 3, 2005, 07:18 AM

Hrmn... well, we'll have to see. I'd like to see something nice.

AsiaLandingPad.woa

That's in the URL.... Landing pad... we 15 year olds have a special definition for that.

This is why I love GoRickey's posts

Randman · May 3, 2005, 07:43 AM

GoWho?

True, but MoS needs some new Tiger-edition ones. The others are showing their age (just like Rickey Henderson).

Sorry, couldn't resist that last one. It was just sitting there.

storer · May 3, 2005, 07:46 AM

Hrmn, well, I want new iBooks.

EDIT: oh well, while was reading the info about the upgraded eMac, ajprice wrote it rightly

Mithras · May 3, 2005, 08:04 AM

The built-in wireless is nice.

budster101 · May 3, 2005, 09:02 AM

...... burp......

ajprice · May 3, 2005, 09:10 AM

If i didn't a) have driving lessons to pay for, b) have to save up for a car, c) save up for a holiday, and d) hadn't just ordered Tiger, then my G4 QS could have been retired this year, these are sweet systems!

hart · May 3, 2005, 09:29 AM

so what's left for June anyway?

oh, powerbooks. I wish it was fabulously wonderful powermacs tho.

budster101 · May 3, 2005, 09:31 AM

G5, black alluminum powerbooks...with biometric security built in.

macintologist · May 3, 2005, 10:01 AM

LOL, the lowend PowerMac G5 has less RAm than the iMacs

Weyland-Yutani · May 3, 2005, 10:06 AM

Built in Airport+Bluetooth and a Radion 9600 128 MB .. The iMac looks damn good now!

badidea · May 3, 2005, 10:16 AM

Radeon 9600 with 128 MB - I hope they also removed that "only mirrored second display" thing and I will get the 20" next week...

Cody Dawg · May 3, 2005, 10:26 AM

I hear that!

I just paid for Opera browser, also. Looks AWESOME on Tiger. It was $39 but it's worth it - the free version is just as good, though. I just try to pay for things here and there so that they keep developing for us.
