Has anyone noticed that the refurb section at the Apple Online Store is completely out of stock of all 15" and 13" Macbook Pros? I can't remember this being the case recently and it makes me wonder if this is related to a possible new release of those size configurations. There are multiple configs of the 17" MBP available.

I bought CS5 just a couple weeks ago and today I got this nice email. I logged in and it looks like they will ship a free version to me when its released. At least they are trying.
So there's a grace period.
But as far as I can tell it's a secret grace period. I can't find any mention of how recently you must have purchased it.

my thoughts about the Banner: There are no new products on this banner (ok, the DVD) only products wich we already know.
Power Mac/ Mac Pro
iMac
Macbook /(Pro)
iPod Nano
thats all i can see. so you will see, that there is no "normal" iPod on the picture. Why the hell ist that? Are they going to release a new one?
I realy don't belive in this, but it seems strange to me, that theree are all hardware products on the banner with only the iPod missing......
The iSight isn't up there either. Maybe it's getting axed.

Anybody got a alternative method for reaching CorvusCamenarum, such as email, text, etc.? I don't want it, and I'm not asking that it get posted, but if someone has a method for checking if he's ok, I hope you will. Not to be dramatic, but parts of Tuscaloosa were obliterated yesterday around the time of his "last activity" time of 5:00 p.m. Thanks.

I don't get the the whole 3D think. Technology isn't mature yet and current 3D movies are really bad. Hope it's just a rumour. Retina display should be next, not 3D.

From one human rights disaster to another.
I'd pay more for a product Made in America that is contributing to our growing economy and feeding starving, hard working Americans.
No you would not. Don't fool yourself.
Made in USA is becoming something from the past. Americans need to come to the forefront of innovation and technology. Labor is always cheaper in countries like Brazil and China.
Americans want to pay Walmart prices so that to happen these products need to be made elsewhere.
An iPad "made in USA" would probably cost twice.

My dad got me an original iPad for my birthday at BB and went to return it last Monday and told them he was gonna get the new one at an Apple Store so they went in the back and said they have a few iPad 2s and got a 32gb AT&T one. Was yesterday supposed to be the first day BB was selling the 2?
When you want to do a return and get new one elsewhere, all of a sudden, they "have them..." :eek:

Well the looks and the battery life just led me to put in my order for a 2GB silver model :)
I can't wait for this thing to arrive and meet it's substantially larger sibling, (powerbook).
My only worry is that it won't work well in my nike+ armband, does anyone know if it does?
Anyhows, here's to the waiting game...

I am seriously thinking of getting out of Windowsworld and the new 24" iMac looks great!:D
From the listed specs this will really rock.
Anybody have advice on whether I should wait for Leopard to come out or not?
Get one if you need it now.
Bottomline is, when Leopard comes out, there will a cheaper/better Mac. But that's just the way it is with technology.

Apple's decision to mix-up their refreshment cycles NOW burns me. I have been looking forward--for once--to upgrading my device at around the time the newest iPhone hits the market, and when I finally get the chance to do it, Apple (potentially) shifts the cycle. Not cool with me.
ME ME ME ME! because you want a new phone when you want it, apple sucks? geeze what are we, 12?

One of the best application updates Apple has done in a long time.
Great job Apple. Simply great.
Agreed. iTunes 5 and 6 were a little 'meh' but I'm loving 7 so far.

Apple has released MacBook SMC Firmware Update 1.1 (http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macbooksmcfirmwareupdate11.html), which aims to improve the MacBook's internal monitoring system and address issues with unexpected shutdowns.
A number of MacBook owners have had their MacBooks intermittently randomly shut down on them, an issue which has come to be known as MacBook RSS (Random Shutdown Syndrome). In a recent summary of the issue, including a pending class-action lawsuit (http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2132), AppleInsider quotes Ogrady's PowerPage that nails down the root cause of the issue to the following:
"Essentially the heatsink can expand during use, and comes into contact with the lead from the [thermometer's] sensor cable," reads a more detailed explanation posted at Ogrady's Power Page. "A short circuit results, and the SMC (System Management Controller) pulls the plug. Once the system cools down, the heatsink [recedes] and the contact is broken."
As is the case with all firmware upgrades, Apple cautions users to not interrupt the update. Detailed information regarding the update can be found here (http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n304308).

1. My statement made perfect sense. Apple builds excellent hardware that competes very well with other expensive hardware, the build quality is better than what anyone else produces, and Apple's Macintosh computers often have unique design that you cannot find elsewhere. Anybody who needs to run Windows and is willing to pay for top quality hardware is well advised to consider buying a Macintosh.
2. You are in LOVE with an ASUS board? I'm in love with my wife. If my MacBook was stolen or damaged I wouldn't shed one tear; I would just wait for the insurance money and buy a new one. You seem to have a strange irrational emotional attachment here.
Apple does not have the best have a build quality better then everyone else. They have some very good computers, but their are companies who build much better computers you have no evidence to back up your statement. Macs use the same hardware as everyone else.

Don't forget the iSight has been discontinued altogether in Europe due to the fact it contains some matertial that will kill you if you eat one or something like that! Maybe its days are numbered?
Now some said no ACD on the banner, new ACD with built in iSight anyone?

Just read that EMI (the Beatles' label) have received a bid of £2.5bn from an unknown company.
That would make the negotiations easier ;)
---
gulp.
thats a LOTTA cash.
But Im wondering if EMI-APPLE Ltd., despite legal tussles with APPLE computer, probably like the ideas of:
1. twin-named brand association, and
2. how the iTunes store, with its huge market and sales system, is already in place, RIGHT NOW, and could drive the sales of Beatles music up-right now, also, unlike ZUNE, which is still at zero, market wise.
Its been noted that MS has finally just decided to just brazenly copy the iPod/iTunes sales model to the letter-since theyve failed in the past, but they may already too late.
MS doesnt have 'mystique' , 'exclusivity' or 'clue' of Apple seems to have.
(ad line: Listen to APPLE on an APPLE!)
Now, MS could easily afford it (if this rumour is true)
But then, so could Apple-they have a big wad of cash, too-and their collateral: the iTunes store-with a huge sales/marketing/hardware system already in place, could stand to make back a lot of that money QUICKLY-whereas if ZUNE had exclusives to the Beatles-most people, already owning iPods, but checking out ZUNE, (or when they finally got around to buying one), would wonder: "why wont this play on my iPod?" Or "Why can I only listen to a song 3 times?"
That would make the negotiations easier ;)

So explain the 920,000 workers FoxConn employs.
Clearly, something in manufacturing gadgets and electronics, which is FoxConn's primary business, requires a lot of labor or else they wouldn't be employing close to a million people!
Like you, I'm not familiar with the details of their business model. Some of what they manufacture might be labor intensive, and some of it might be built on a robotic assembly line. Trying to figure this out from that Wikipedia article will be nothing but speculation.
