PORTAL 2 CONCEPT ART PC
Does anybody remember the days before DVD Drives became standard in computers? I remember giving DVDs to people that wouldn't play, and then having to have them crouch down next to their PC and read off the faintly printed logos on the drive and tell me if it said CD-ROM.Īll the haters that are against Bluray, you have to admit that if it was a Bluray drive in every single Mac made that the requests for Bluray would be much higher. It's just as simple as "You have a Mac? You can play this disc!". I can play them, I can burn them, I can do Dual Layer. The nice thing about the Superdrive is that I know if I have a Mac, I can do anything related to DVDs. Maybe Micro$oft will implode too - the zune fiasco suggests that they are up their own arses as far as common sense goes.įCP supporting Bluray is irrelevant if Apple does not start putting Bluray drives into its Macs. With computer recording etc., its not necessary to get a record deal - good music does exist outside of the music industry machine. This battle will run for a while yet, but there is hope that the DEMISE of record companies is on the horizon. Its a losing gamble and it turns music into a commodity - which it shouldnt be. etc, only the very successful (a huge 0.5% of bands) ever make any money. Yes folks thats a big fifty cents or so on an average CD sale.īut because they give you an advance against royalties, which you spend on recording and PR etc. I used to work in the music biz, and a bigger bunch of thieving clowns you have yet to meet. Its a smart move, and its a pity that almost ALL of the iTunes cash goes direct to the record companies. Cool.Īpple doesnt really sell music - it sells iPods and offers the music at cost (or close to it) to support the iPod. If Universal get cash as 'compensation' for stolen music, then presumably once you have paid the 'compensation' money, you can steal as much music as you like. provided once again, that issues of genocide don't arise. As a general rule I believe that it's best for a country to work these issues out themselves. But intervening in a civil war is another.
Protecting people against genocide is one thing. This for all intents and purposes increases the number of nations in your coalition to include these countries as well.īut personally, I don't support this intervention. Which is a tacit form of approval.īosnia, Colombia, Gabon, Germany, India, Lebanon, Nigeria, Portugal and South Africa all cast yes votes along with France the U.K. However, if my memory serves, either China and Russia could have vetoed the measure with a no vote, yet did not. I wonder what the list would look like then?īrazil, China, Germany, India, Russian Federation abstained from voting.
So while the coalition of forces might be small, you'd have to in some sense include all the nations who voted for the resolution as backing this effort. One difference here is that there was a U.N. alone, because his coalition was small/weak. I agree with another poster too, having both models silent would be most excellent!īush was attacked endlessly about conducting a war for oil, and that it was really the U.S. Right now the iMac is your only option in a certain range. Perhaps then the spread from $1499 for a base model conroe Mac to a $3299 or even $3599 for a premo dual-woodcrest 3GHz MacPro would seem plausible? I really like having a Mac desktop option before stepping up to the MacPro (with a smaller format). That would be a good lineup: two Minis, two iMacs, two Macs, two MacPros. Because, when you think of it, "prosumers" who already own a display are faced with a difficult buying decision with the current lineup. slightly smaller on the low end or charcoal black on the upper end). Perhaps have an ever so slight case design difference between the two (i.e. The bottom two could have Conroe chips and the top two could have 2 x Woodcrest chips.

You know, what if Apple just released 4 Mac Pro models? Or offered 2 Mac Pro models and 2 iMac Pro models.
