I hope they drop a decent video card to drive that 23". How about an X1900XT? Please?
They can't even get our smartchip ID cards to work. All my computer does all day is waste cycles verifing who I am through USB and I still have paper medical and dental records that I hold on to so they don't get lost by DA civilians, or worse, contractors, who mostly suck. The rfid tablet is just more fodder for the military-industrial complex that we've heard so much about. How about tax free pay all the time, not just in combat, and a records database tied to your silly common access card instead of wasting more money?
pixelator, I specified that I was talking about games that interest me, not you.

I like what I have. Do you know what I do now that I can't seriously game? I use OSX. The possibilities are endless. I discover something new and cool every day. Plus, it's a cinch to organize my 80+ gigs of music and photos with iLife.

I stated that I'd like to play some games on decent hardware. Bootcamp, which you might of heard of, is great. I can boot into windows and play HL2, Oblivion, Zen Bondage, and Galactic Civilzations 2. It's not as pretty but I get my fix. I wish apple would see that the market that I occupy is viable, especially if they could land exclusive, mac only kickass hardware (but leave it PCIe expandable, of course for next year's crop). I think they'd see even more cross over users.

Finally, I'd like to say that there is an opportunity for apple to overcome the "LOL PC GAMERZ!!1!@2!" attitude and gain some streed cred.
Apple, I love my intel imac, I sold a watercooled 4200x2+7800gtx for the switch and couldn't be happier. There are no PC games that appeal to me right now that I can't handle with the x1600.

But...please put a decent videocard(s) in the MacPro. That's all I want so I never have to touch a PC again, Spore is going to make me want a new machine and I want it to be an apple. Thanks.
I would like to see Logitech take bluetooth i-mac styled mice seriously. Their latest combo is nice, but it's RF, which eats up a USB port. Plus, the keyboard is mushy compared to my awesome apple wireless.

In the interim, I wish apple would get on with it and release the mighty mouse in a bluetooth flavor before I have to do something drastic like buy an MX1000 and throw off my whole desk. I just bought white Z4 speakers, for heaven's sake!
You are teh soft. You say that tweaking's a bad thing. I want a Mac so I can tweak it. I want a PC to tweak it. Some of you need to evaluate your geek cred.
I think i'm going to buy one anyway
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!"
