As it still has a second socket, it must use Xeon 5000-series CPUs. The CPU in the 3797$ SP configuration costs 1663$ alone, whereas the CPU in 2499$ Mac Pro costs 294$.
The Dell CPU costs about $800.
Why is it so damn hard to get it that Mac Pro is overpriced compared to e.g. Dell's offerings?! :confused:
But it's a Dell. :eek:

earlier, i commented on a post, which showed Amazon shipping the new ipod shuffle on the 11th of october... and well, since that is today, i checked back on amazon's site and this is what i found.... :(

they moved their date from the 11th to the 31st
i know that it is not really that much later and i don't mean to be complaining... i just can't wait to have that cool, little device!
anyway, sitting here crossing my fingers & hoping for an expedited shipping date! :) :) :)

i would RATHER row for Dartmouth than be caught dead any where near the rusted gates of Princeton, myes... As a resident student at the fine university of San Francisco State, I must say that the idea of Princeton getting good publicity is highly dubious... indubitably...
seriously people, does it matter where we go to school? does it say anything about us? well, yes, it does i suppose, but anyone so self centered or insecure that they need to project their own self worth off of that where they study is a very unfortunate person...
sorry for the rant, g5 powerbooks and iphones tuesday.
GO GATERS!

Have a look at Brew Dog (http://www.brewdog.com). One of their beers, Tactical Nuclear Penguin comes in at 32% ABV. Very expensive to buy. Nothing more than a publicity stunt, really. They release a beer, put something controversial on the label, questions get asked in Parliament and bingo!, loads of free publicity and street cred.
Rather have a nice bottle of single malt meself.:p
Oh, just had a look at their site and they've had to release a 41% ABV entitled "Sink The Bismark" in order to combat a 40 percenter from Germany.
They have a 55% beer out now. "The End of History" is covered in a dead animal, and costs about $750. From what I hear, most ice-distilled beers taste like ass anyway, and that's all they've done to get it this high. To me, it doesn't mean much unless it's fermented to that strength. That means my record-holder is still Utopias.

No iP5 so just to keep the torches and pitchforks at bay Apple "releases" the same thing just with different lipstick. LOL!
Sadly, there's plenty of folks that will lap this up.
Your right on the money.
What the hell happened to the premier company we used to be able to rely on?

That's uncalled for. I don't understand what the purpose is either. Why don't you explain it if you know so much.

So, some crazy bitch climbs on the hood of your car to keep you from leaving and you just have to put up with that?
I'm sorry, I'm not saying the guy should get a free pass, but at some point her own idiocy has to bear some of the blame for this.
i agree to some degree
gender flip: i lived with some friends who were dating. they got into a huge argument and she tried to leave. he didn't want her to so he stood in front of her car and she continued moving, hitting him and busting the windshield up.
he came inside, mad of course, and said "i can't believe she hit me"
i told him "i can't believe you stood in front of a car of a mad woman"
both are most always to blame if they cannot separate for a "cool down period".

$180 more than a PS3. Wow! I can so get a 120 GB OEM drive for LESS THAN $100! :rolleyes:
So if I got a PS3 "elite", and got a 120 GB OEM drive, IT'D STILL BE CHEAPER THAN AN ELITE 360! WTF WTF WTF WTF!?!?!?! :eek:
No one said that this whole HD "thing" was going to be cheap (Circuit City commercial where they ask people's opinion on HD - "Wicked expensive").
Black MacBook....
"Black" is the new "it'll cost you more"...

I'm sure the Chinese authorities won't go overboard with the punishment. After all, China, Syria and Iran are the epitome of "human rights."

I do not care how hot it gets as long as my Mac goes to sleep when I close it!!!
:)
Yep, that fixed that issue on my MBP, too. I can now close the lid and it goes to sleep. Amazing!
The apple store had ordered me a new top case, motherboard, and sleep sensor to try and fix this. I guess they can send all that back. :)

Very cool. Perhaps it will finally settle some questions about steve's thought process and private life. I hate how so many stupid assumptions are made vacuously here and presented as fact.
If you'rs referring to the "legacy" comments then you can't be so daft as to ignore the timing of this. First biography authorized by Steve himself... Hope it's just a coincidence.

Looking forward to the season picking up again! Jan 17!
And to send some good stuff back, here's the link (shame on those of you who haven't been including the link!): Chuck Desktop (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12428034/Chuck.png). I modified it from promo stuff I'd seen, so I didn't have one with annoying extra text on it.

Netflix advantages:
Netflix disadvantages:
- only available in USA and Canada (extremely limited selection in Canada)
Apple advantages:
- could be launched in a lot of countries (probably everywhere there currently is an iTunes Store)
- already have a lot of iTunes Store user accounts worldwide
While it would be nice for folks overseas to have access to this service, it is unlikely to affect US users due to copyright issues (ie if I as a US user travel to Europe I probably wouldn't be able to access my Apple movie account there and stream content).
Apple disadvantages:
- would probably require an Apple-made device to access the content (bonus: no Silverlight installation required on Mac), as I don't see Apple making an app for the Xbox360, PS3, Wii and other set-top boxes (they'd rather sell you an :apple:TV)
- their servers are located in the USA, so I don't know if it's enough to serve streaming media worldwide. Do they currently have servers in other countries for the international iTunes Stores?
Technical issues aside, however, it all boils down to selection and price.
Unless they keep their pricing structure very similar to Netflix they will have a tough time with it. Especially if the service requires their hardware. Plus Netflix has such a great reach into the market with their app, and as you noted I don't see Apple designing an app to work with other hardware (and siphon sales from the :apple:TV).

Sorry, mate, but I think you're missing the point.
For a company like Apple losing a prototype and it ending up in the hands of a tech blogger months before its release was probably a big blow. But that damage is now done, nothing more they can do about that. The only thing they get to decide is how to handle the matter now with respect to the felony (probably) committed by the finder and Gizmodo. Are their interests best served by getting the police to bash down this guy's door and confiscate the tools of his trade? Apple is a corporation owned by its shareholders and upheld by passionate customers who buy things at a premium because they feel good about them and the company that makes them. It doesn't get to throw a tantrum. It has an image to consider. What's to be gained by tearing up this blogger? A deterrent for similar cases in the future? Give me a break. The next guy who gets his hands on a prototype will just be a bit more careful not to show his face in the video and claim it was sent to him by an anonymous source. That's all.
So, yes, it was a felony. But it still lacked style and class to go after the felon like that. And style and class is what Apple is all about.
Apples hand was forced once the device was sold to Gizmodo. I don't think I missed the point at all. If you don't address the selling of a prototype device that your company has spent millions of dollars developing, then that would be irresponsible to your share holders. The method to go after someone who has stolen, or paid for stolen property is to contact the police. I as a share holder of Apples would expect nothing less then them using law enforcement to go after these criminals.
