@Josh: Yeh thats the one I am refering to, the one that is a BETTER computer in EVERY test, (thats what you buy it for isnt it?) Ye its the one with iLife 08' which beats ANY other programs hands down,its the one with a design thats not created by a two year old, Aluminum and glass, not cheesy looking shoddy plastic with big ass ugly speakers. Oh and its the one that is more reliable with much better hardware, that thing is a DELL king of crap, Oh and did i mention OS X? So yup your on the right track how'd you guess I was refering to THAT iMac? Well done!
Lol.. ye well if it indeed is a good multimedia machine then you would have a point... read the review..sounds like it suck in everything!
"it's not the best pure living room PC, the XPS One is also not the best productivity-oriented desktop, even among other all-in-ones. In that category, Apple's iMac still rules the day. The performance charts more or less speak for themselves."
"You know your performance is in trouble when your gaming scores are slower than a Mac's. But on every test, from music encoding to photo editing to multitasking, the XPS One falls behind the iMac that costs $750 less"
@argot:OK instead of sitting there as a microtard fanboy shooting fake numbers out of your ass, please take a moment and look at the REAL numbers from CREDIBLE sources. Ps: we all have the internet your not fooling anybody with these numbers, all i had to do was type it in google and look for a REAL analyst site.
I seriously doubt Apple will come even close to closing shop again, have you stopped and looked at their stock they are worth 1/2 of microsoft, with Apples market cap being 140.40 billion and microsofts being 280.55 biliion. They have just about as much of a chance of closing up then pepsi or sony or dell who are both worth 3x less then Apple. Dream on, whether you'd like to believe it or not, Apple is going somewhere microsoft is dry they have a P/E of 20 which is low for a technology company, it means there are no expectations for them, what you see is what you get; a big old lumbering company with no spark of life whereas Apple with a P/E of 45 shows high expectations. Apple is the next Microsoft. Its out with the old and in with the new (although apple is actually older then microsoft :-)
@hikescool: Yes, a 1% difference is pretty big when you are talking percentage of market share in a vast industry such as the computer one, If os x takes over windows its going to be 1% at a time, now macs sold over 30% faster then the PC industry as a whole, Its nothing to scoff at, they are selling more and more macs each quarter beating analyst expectations every time. Another point you should realize before making stupid comments is that we are comparing os x market share which sells only on macs as opposed to windows market share which sells on a number of vendors, so with that if you compare hardware sales apple has risen to the 3rd largest notebook computer manufacturer.
ipod classic 80gb amazing no issues whatsoever neither have any of my friends who bought one. The only people who post are the ones with problems, with the number of ipod sold there will be many reports of problems that does not mean the product in general is bad.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
