It was okay… I guess… nothing special… :cool:
But I want to know how "good" the ATi card is – in general, as well as compared to the one in the MBPs! :confused:
Now, I want the new 24" iMac… but, I just can't justify upgrading… unless the ATi card is worth it for gaming? :)

Only 1GB ram? Who is going to play over 1700$ for a computer with just 1GB ram?
No dvd burner on the mac mini? Well, not much of a media center computer, is it?
This is sad...

Is the keynote available for download anywhere? I have fairly slow internet at the moment and when I try to watch it is unbearably choppy. Thanks.

I was very happy with today's updates. Once Leopard is out I will buy the new 24" iMac. Looks great.
Regarding iLife...
I read this: "Using iWeb '08, you can embed dynamic web widgets like Google Maps, Google AdSense, Web Gallery albums, or HTML snippets in your .Mac site."
Does anyone know if an html snippet could be a shopping cart of PayPal purchase button? Could you sell something you created on your webpage?

I've gone to the Apple site to watch the special event and the quicktime file has a "Bad Request" message.
Anyone else getting this error?

I just got back from the Easton Apple store. I called ahead to see if they had any 2.8's in stock. "Don't know about the 2.8s" Goes away for a minute. "Yup, plenty" I get there (1 hour drive), and a kid goes back to get one. Several minutes later, he tries to ring me up for a 2.4. Luckily I noticed. He went to the back for Several minutes, comes out: "The 2.8's are Online purchase only."
So much for calling ahead. 1 lost sale Apple.
