Fixed.
Dell, Apple and HP all charge around the same price for their Xeon workstations.
Dell Precision T3500
Intel Xeon W3530 2.8GHz
3GB 1333MHz DDR3 ECC
256MB ATI FireMV 2260
1TB 7200rpm hard drive
Price: 1389$
Mac Pro
Intel Xeon W3530 2.8GHz
3GB 1066MHz DDR3 ECC
1GB ATI 5770
1TB 7200rpm hard drive
Price: 2499$
The ATI FireMV 2260 costs 120$ on Amazon so price wise it is similar to ATI 5770. You can add a lot beefier GPU and still save a fortune compared to Mac Pro.

Unless they've bought map data from Navateq or TeleAtlas, I strongly doubt Apple has enough time to map the entire world. If anything, because of the huge number of people using iPhones, it's perfect for creating an aggregate map of traffic data which no other company could do (besides Google i suppose).
The USA has the longest road network at about 4 million miles. There are probably 40 million iPhone users in the USA. So that is 1/10th of a mile per user. If mapping the USA cost $10 per mile of road then the cost would be one dollar per user. I'd invest a million or two in writing some really clever software to analyse GPS data and let iPhone users collect all the necessary data, then professional drivers just following all the mapped roads to fix errors.

It better get released in Europe with little gap between the US.
I'd like a new phone, and one made by Apple is a definite yes.
Though with all this great stuff coming, I'll be broke :P
I realize this is what happens with every other fancy new phone, but I imagine an Apple phone would come out in the US first and Europe later.

Very well said. A very thoughtful and rational statement. The histrionics from some members can be too much at times.
In saying that though, many people do just sell their contracted iPhone and buy the latest unlocked iPhone direct from Apple.

Watching the video has made me much more open to the new version. I make a living using Final Cut so yesterdays coverage had me worried. But there are some true genius features built into the new version. Not having a viewer is different but the trade off is cool. One thing I am worried about is support for existing FXPlugs.
There are still many more questions to be answered about DVD Studio Pro, Motion and Compressor. I use soundtrack pro a bit and Cinema Tools for slow motion as well.

If Apple were at some point going to add a smartphone capabilities into its iPhones, then I doubt it'd be in the first version. If they do this, they're jumping into the mobile phone making market for the first time, so it'd be way too big a leap to jump in with a phone that's the swiss army knife of the digital age. The goal is going to be take away mainstream phone sales from companies that are launching phone & music playing devices. Smartphone users, while high in number, are still not mainstream.
Maybe someday they'll have a range of phones and smartphone will be an option? Are you a Newton fan by any chance? :P
And my current "smartphone" is a Palm T|C and a Moto SLVR.
From the 'Steve Jobs boasting' rumors earlier, it would seem to suggest that the iPhone is way better than anything out there, so I wouldn't be surprised to see some form of pocket apps in a business version (a la PocketPC pda phones), with just itunes & other stuff in a standard consumer version.
Any thoughts on ipod accessory compatibility - like will the nike+ module just fit into the bottom of the iphone like it does on the nano?

Most people have the same problem....
It would be nice if Apple could post a maximum of "streamers".
Something like: "Not enough bandwidth left. Please try later." Then those lucky ones who are watching can finish watching it in peace. :)

/me is hoping Nokia and MS can get their &$?t together and come up with an alternative to Apple. Not that I would switch, but if I had to I'd rather go to another monolithic system than the fragmented mess that is the Android landscape

It's truly shocking how many empty headed people offer a mac mini as an idea when someone obviously wants an expandable system. He already has a tower and is looking at another tower so spending more and getting what he doesn't want is a solution somehow.. Wow.
Anyway.. some actual advice intended to help you. I wouldn't buy a G5 tower myself as they are far too unreliable. I have posted about this before and they are quite unreliable. This (http://www.macintouch.com/reliability/pmg5.html) link shows extensive research based on actual Apple repair records on G5's. A quick sum up is that even the most reliable one (the dual 2.3GHz) saw 11% go in the shop for one reason or another. The worst model (the first dual 2GHz) saw a whopping 32% in the shop for repair.
Best and cheapest solution in my mind..
Get a G4 MDD dual 1.25 or dual 1.42. Even the dual 1.25 will be a world apart performance wise compared to your single 867MHz. Not quite as fast as a dual G5 but really not all that much slower and much more reliable. A fair price on ebay for these models would be maybe 150-225. I prefer the heavily upgraded Sawtooth I have but it's a much bigger investment than an ebay MDD. Even the low end dual 867 MDD I used to own handled all flash quite well. A 1.25+ won't have any issues with anything you want to do at all.
To each their own.. most of my everyday work, about 70-80 percent is done on the PB G4 - basics.. only handbrake and dvd encoding is done on my 6-core mac pro.. I have no use for video editing, and personally will never touch it because I don't have the time nor desire to learn about it.
Well, I just replaced the 5400 120GB PATA in my PB G4 and replaced it with a OWC Legacy SSD drive and it has brought new life to my power book G4.
I say: Why not? My 2010 Mac Pro seems to love the company of its older brothers, the PPC macs.. and even my Gateway p-6860fx chimes along as well. All of them get along.. none of them hate each other.. why hate ppc? Why hate Intel?? So long as the computer can do what you ask of it, it is NEVER obsolete.
We should all play nice.

Can whoever the first person to get a call from best buy to schedule an appointment post it on here....
Will do.
The guy at my store said he thought they would open up a couple of hours early. I'm wondering if they are going to let each individual store make that decision??
I read somewhere (probably this thread) that, yes, it's up to each location.

Probably should have checked to see if it was ok to bring a laptop to school in the first place. Most have pretty strict rules in this area.
