  • The fact I have not seen mentioned here is the true value of iTunes to Apple. The point that your average customer might not find movie downloads valuable seems valid to me. But remember Apple said the music downloads are not where the make money in-fact the profit margins are slim. It's all about the iPod!!!, and thats where the true value of the Movie store lies. The public may eventually find movie downloads are overrated however most people are into features when selecting a new media player and the the iPod being the first that you could load legally downloaded commercial films to, comes off as a big selling point thus increasing Apple's sales and goes with the spirit of being an industry innovator that we've come to expect for the best computer manufacturer in the world!!!

    Is the iTunes Movie Store a Good Idea?
  • Apple could just offer a geared up G3. Sure it may not run everything out there. But I was using my G3 as my main computer till last week and managed to perform every task I wanted with the exception of Playing SimCity 4... lol Mind ya I had to look to Japan for DVD authoring software and such because none was produced in the United States for the G3, and authoring a DVD took at least a day to render. However G3 iMacs now sell on eBay for $50 to $100. However theres a risk, cheaper will bring more users, lower performance may equate Apple to Microsoft. I'm more than happy to shell out 2G's for a computer that will last me 6-7 years or more... :-)

    Is There Room for a Really Cheap Mac?
  • I still have a great running Peforma 638/CDV 12 years after I purchased it. However now days I generally only use it for the built in TV tuner. Honestly I don't think there could ever be such a thing as a bad Mac, some just need more care than others.
