Gosh.  Like we didn't see this whole let-down coming.

Sorry Madan, OW, and Group hug. :(

I just feel a bit vinicated after hearing all the "G5 is going to crush the Pentium 4!" crap for the last 6 months.  It appears they can't even field a Gighz G4 (which I thought was a shoe in.  heh, they even dissapointed this longtime wintroll in that respect)

I feel sorry for the gracious and reasonable mac users of this world, like you guys.  But this does indeed feel like sweet retribution against the iTards of your ilk.

Oops!

I fricked up the front page!

please fix it Jeremy! :(

So, how high is high end now? Still 866 or whatever?

Ouch. But hey! they've got a new lamp :biggrin:

Anyone else feel like hitting the BF to gloat?

I kind of do :)

It looks like my poopy-head will turn into a wintroll now.

:cheesy:

Actually, my prognostications are spot-on....

As for the G4. We did have it upped to 1.4 ghz. That's what several Euro retailers are placing the new specs to be at. Probably for hush-hush release in Tokyo.

Is that enough? Hell no. I'm terribly angry at Apple right now.

Had they released the G4 lineup NOW and a new appliance, my predictions for the iMac, G4 speedbump, PS OSX and appliance would have been spot on and I wouldn't have been upset. As it is, I'm terribly pissed at Apple.

Then again, when Apple fubars, I say it:

Unlike Venture, pdampier, seta, npn, BFG10k, and prowlerguy that couldn't admit a Wintel screw up if their lives depended on it.

But yeah, I'm miffed.

I never said this.

No, no.  i didn't mean you :)

or OW or anybody like that.

But that was what the rumormill was perpetuating and coming up with reasons why the sources for such just had to be valid.

I have heard that in the achai and I think it's prolly more wishfull thinking from european distribitors than a viable product at this point.  I base this this on the flurry of worthless rumors, enuendo, and "credible sources" from the past few months which all amounted to naught.

:)

Actually, it's the truth.

I know a retailer in Paris that confirmed that Apple was sending documents with those clock speeds on them.

I just don't find those speeds all that impressive. Moreso, if they release that speed (1.4ghz) in Feb/March, there's no way we're getting a faster G5 in June/July.

It all just stinks.

M.

Hmm,

that's interesting...

bah!

i'm to frustrated right now. I stayed up till 3 in the fucking morning to watch this thing which i will want to lust because its way beyond the rumor sites.

fucking stupid apple hype machine.

Usually i don't buy into the rumors nor do i even consider them but with the extra dose of apple hype it even got to me so i check the rumor sites for what could Apple present that is *beyond* it. So i was expecting faster G4, extremely fast G4's. At 1.4 ghz A G4 is still relatively competitive, granted Apple's pricing is still a bitch.

Doesn't look like price performance is going to get any better.

meh...

Just to spite RQE.

You have a strange way of flirting.

:cheesy:

Oh, you are such a fucking bitch.

Now you're never getting it.

<Nelson> HA HA! </Nelson>

This is highly humorous.

bitch!

just felt like saying that...

i'm actually waiting while the latest (well the second latest that is) episode of friends is downloading.

yay! i'm gonna watch friend tonight...

yay!
