I assume that you have the Mono set. If so, you have the better one (other than missing Abbey Road and Let It Be. As has been said many times they are better mixes and the differences are fairly significant in places. Due to the differences, it's easier to argue that you need the both.
I like the Mono set packaging, with the replica sleeves, but the stereo set packaging is also very good with better sleeve notes and the mini documentaries. The box set comes with all the documentaries on one DVD which is better than watching them individually on the CD's
Go on, you know you want to. :)
I don't have either, but I was wondering which set was better, overall I guess

That is what people aren't understanding. They see something and imagine it being the same design despite function changing. If they do touchscreen, it won't be long (if not instant) before they redo how it sits on the table.
A design that allows the screen to go relatively flat and vertical is necessary. This design should have been done already 3 years ago.
Surely this new device will be wedged shaped like a large slice of cheese or indeed a very deep keyboard where the keys are the screen....
You would need to use or enhance your LCD to be viewable from a ~45 degree angle. Ideally tweek it so it worked well at an angle rather than square on.

Store still down? Annoying or what?Yes very annoying! I'm trying to figure out the specs/prices for these. Btw, does anybody think the Apple would allow me to swap the MBs at Admore rather than going back to Christiana Mall in Delaware?

Well, I just did it, I used green strip putty (I can't remember the name), looks like this only a pine-green
I mounted it to the back of the desk, worked really well, just take 2 very small (half inch or so) peices and stick it on. It cleans up pretty easily off plastic, just don't try putting it on dry wall or plaster. (Hence, why I put it on the back of the desk, it wont come off very well, but who looks at the back of the desk?)
Alright. I'll go look for that or something similar at Wal-Mart or Target.
Thanks for the tips PowerGamerX

Sigh, I dont like the way Apple configure models to get you to spend more to get features that should be standard.
512Mb RAM and a Combo Drive which probably costs them 50p
Most people ship with 512mb in their base laptops at the moment and as for the combo drive the vast majority of us never even think about burning a dvd. Better to release a cheaper model and offer the user the chance to upgrade than price people out with unrequired features - although obviously a gb of ram would be handy.

I've been going thru these forums for about a year now. I find good posts and opinions but I hate these snide comments from people. Not everyone is as tech savvy as many who post here. I'm sick of scrolling past these guys that have nothing better to do than mock others.
You must hate the internet then. It runs on snark.

Isn't the user experience destroyed when we can't open a page or go to a link because we don't have Flash? I know what you're saying, but it's destroyed either way (too sloooow or nothing).
Exactly. While flash can be a PITA, it's really annoying to not be able to get to certain websites or other content because of the lack of flash. I'd like the option to turn it on only when I need it.

Wireless updates sound delightful, but what sounds even better is wireless syncing. We should be able to do this already without having to jailbreak our devices. Even the damn zune can do it :(

Are we under the assumption that the Lion upgrade will be $29?
I haven't been around for a release past Snow Leopard so I'm not sure what to expect.
No. Normal price is around $129.

Please Apple, wirelessly update everything (iTunes, iPhotos etc). It is long overdue. Plugging my iPhone into my MacBook make absolutely little sense.

It actually makes a lot of cents... For Apple.
You don't get to billions in profits by selling just phones. ;)

Although I never had a RSS, I did apply the update.
I'm curious about those temps you are mentioning though.
I have CoreDuoTemp installed and it shows 57C without doing anything fancy! Just Mail.app and Safari are open and I haven't done any serious work in the meantime.
34C seems kinda low :/

Has anyone considered that apple might not be realeasing the wide screen super secret video ipod because it dosn't exist?
It might not exist, and then again, it just might exist. Who on these forums knows? Maybe Steve will join and tell us if it exists or not.

American foreign policy has indeed come up quite short in the foresight department. However, Khadahphee (or however it gets spelt) rose to power with no real assistance from other countries and has only been supported indirectly, through people buying oil. The only support Libya gets from the US is indirect, from irresponsible excess in oil consumption that keeps the prices up for everyone.
You'd be right except for our military ties to Libya.

Seems we've played a significant role in arming Libya in recent history, though not nearly as much as European nations.

If you don't absolutely NEED it, practice a little self-control and wait. You'll regret you order if you place it and the new MBPs come out next weeek.
Next week? How can you say that? Can�t we just all agree the�ll come out this week, maybe then it happens. Yes we can!

And we wonder why this country is broke.
Flat tax across the board. I love Apple, but when a company can spend billions to open a plant in another country just to skirt taxes, there is a problem.
Exactly. Our economy did not go down the crapper because of lack of manufacturing...but it certainly doesn't help.
How is it that in THIS ECONOMY the US Gov't can't entice Apple/Foxconn/whoever to build here in the US?! Come on...you're telling me that the US Gov't either said a)nope...not gonna budge...our policies/rules are the same or b)here's our best offer (yet it was still much worse than opening in Brazil?!)
$12 Billion is a lot of money for a company opening a manufacturing plant.
As for your tax comment...I've always wondered and firmly believe that 100% of all US citizens should pay the exact same tax rate. Whites don't pay differently than blacks right? Catholics don't pay more than Muslims right? Aren't we all supposed to be "equal" in this nation? Make the darn tax rate something universal like 20% and every SINGLE YEAR we all know exactly what we're paying and the gov't knows exactly how much they're getting. Budget problems and crying will be basically wiped out.

Does anyone else find it strange/ridiculous that AirPort Express and Bluetooth come standard on every system except the high end Mac Pro?No I find that personally reasonable. How often are you going to be moving around your desktop? Many companies would not allow them in the building with those features. The upgrade price is reasonable.

Why on earth does it make any sense to discuss the high likelihood of blacks (as opposed to whites) to get charged when we don't know the respective likelihood of committing the crime? As far as I can see, there is nothing that supports your theory about the statistics making things look worse than reality.
Charging decisions are made by people, including police and prosecutors. A discussion about the likelihood of committing a crime is only about claims about racial differences. I'm not aware of any legitimate study that any race is more or less likely to commit crimes.
Yes, I know that some places (e.g. Texas), black people are provided with retarded attourneys who show up intoxicated in court - if showing up at all. As a former public defender I will respond on behalf of all the court appointed attornies out there. Bite me. You have no clue what you are talking about. If I ever need a criminal defense attorney, my first call will be to the local public defender. If they have time, they are the best person to hire. If not, they know better than anyone who to hire and what to expect.

And, since it's Merom, this makes the likelihood of seeing a Conroe minitower even better - after all, Apple has to stick the Conroe chip in something, right? ;) :D As it stands now, since Merom is technically the "mobile chip", Apple has 5 mobile solutions (2 mobile MB/MBPs, 3 not-so-mobile iMacs) and a workstation solution (Mac Pro), so where is the desktop solution? :p :cool:
Fingers crossed!
