Mac "Innovation"

And this in from the MacWorld Conference. At the announcement, when the masses were told this was available at the store, they were sold out afterwards.

And they say people are brainwashed by Microsoft... horrible product and people still run to buy it, atleast with Microsoft your forced to buy its crap.

And as for a slogan "Life is random" .. Yeah life is random, but sometimes I wanna hear a certain goddamn song.. and trying to remember where it is in my playlist can suck my nuts... hard enough to remember where things are on cd's that only have 18 songs... If you really demand a randomness from life, steal Kmoney's Mithril deposit, you'll get a random "comment" from him heh...

I love how on the new Mini-Macs it has a Radeon 9200 32meg video card and Apple calls it "Extreme Graphics".

That?s why Apple engineers pay so much attention to graphics. Mac mini sports a full-fledged ATI Radeon 9200 with 32MB dedicated DDR SDRAM over an AGP 4x bus.

Rounding out the Best of Show list were MacSoft's Close Combat: First to Fight (price TBA), an upcoming squad-based tactical first-person shooter that emulates real Marine tactics....

MacSoft's Games List

I'm sure it'll be out in about a year and a half... and look like Ranbow 6: Ghost Recon on an n64

But here are some more BEST of show at the expo...
Quote:
The other winners were: Xerox Phaser EX7750, a color laser printer and network color server aimed at graphic professionals who need accurate color (starting at $17,899); TEN Technology's NaviPlay ($199), Bluetooth-based wireless headphones for iPod; Griffin Technology's SmartDeck ($24.99), an adapter that plugs an iPod into a cassette player and employs special technology to let users navigate the MP3 player with their car stereo controls; Roxio's Popcorn ($49.95), which backs up unencrypted DVDs, including dual-layer ones, to standard 4.7GB DVD-R discs; and ATI Radeon X800 XT Mac Edition ($499), a graphics card with 256MB of VRAM and the capacity to drive a 30-inch Apple Cinema HD display and an older monitor simultaneously.



ok... lets look at this closely... a pair of wireless headphones for an ipod... a printer.... a program to steal DVD's .... and an Nvidia card... ok.. i'll give them the Nvidia card...

Kevin Rose was playing with all of this stuff on TSS (which G4 has totally FUCKED). It's all pleasantly gay and over priced. Like $600 for 1GB of Mac Mini Ram (PC2700) and $300 for iPod headphones. I was fucking floored.
