I own that "Country Moog" album. Surprisingly good, considering I'm not a big fan of country.

Next to safe-cracking, it would have to be the "Third-Eye" inspired "Convert your G4 Cube to a Pentium M" post at http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/13/convert-your-g4-cube-to-a-pentium-m/ .

Ah, the good old days...

Excellent way to get the kids into the "family business"...

Good luck on your next year.

By "low-income" I believe they mean around the national poverty level, or just above, so you could say that one person making less than $15,000 is "low-income". SliKone (or whatever), I can't imagine a company that would pay you less than $10 an hour but still give you a laptop. Unless it's family, or some other crazy thing.

Thank you very much!

Wouldn't mind one of these. Thanks!

People laugh at my Laserdisc collection until they see what's in my Laserdisc collection... Gotta love ~philes.

I wouldn't mind a Treo. Go nice with my Zire. So, thanks.

56k modem? I guess...

I've never claimed to know why Apple does what they do, but I'm thinking they got a big price break, or they're go to go "green". Otherwise, why put an underpowered, under-utilized processor in a "new" machine? Either the first 2 reasons, or a few more, like maybe 3) they don't want to piss off graphics people by showing them what they've possibly missed out on in speed, 4) OS X can't handle the faster processors or Apple can't yet code for them correctly, and 5) they still want a big markup.

From Intel's site: "The Intel� Core� Duo processor is the next-generation processor in the latest Intel� Centrino� mobile technology-based notebooks and delivers revolutionary dual-core mobile performance and great power efficiency.

The Intel� Core� Solo processor represents the next generation in processor innovation. It is enhanced to handle today's demanding software applications--such as graphics-intensive games or serious number-crunching programs."

Even though this is from Intel's site, and thus propaganda, I'd say Apple would have gone the "Solo" route, but maybe they'll do that in their "pro" machines.
