New Intel Macs: iMac and MacBook Pro
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 01:51 PM by kick-ass-bob
My absolute favorite feature is the magnetic power supply - I have lost 2 power cords to people tripping over the wire.

2. Why'd they drop Firewire 800 from the MacBook?
It only has one Firewire 400 connection, but two USB 2.0 connections.

What gives? I thought that Firewire was THE ticket; they'd talked about moving data at up to 3.2 Gbps in the next few years.

Is Firewire going the way of Appletalk, ADB and SCSI?

3. I curious about pricing of old/new iMacs
I noticed that the price of the new Intel iMacs, which are supposed to be faster, is the same as the old iMacs. Since the old iMacs haven't changed price, why would anyone buy one now?

Quite odd.
