People were waiting in line, and most didn't know why? Obviously, Steve Jobs was in the store's basement, testing his upgraded reality distortion field.

Or sunspots. It's always sunspots.

Actually, recent Macs don't have TPM's. My MacBook Pro (Core 2, not Santa Rosa) doesn't have a TPM chip.
A Japanese watch? Maybe that'll fit on my thin wrists. (It's weird, because the rest of me is a bit overweight.)

If I win this contest, I can look forward to wearing a watch that doesn't slide around, or force me to wear it higher up on my arm like a tasteless idiot.

This watch will be replacing me rummaging through my pockets for a cell phone.
Well, I'm not surprised. Flash isn't a simple plugin; like all other OS X plugins, you need an Intel version for Intel machines, and a PowerPC version for PowerPC machines. Now, you need an ARM version for ARM-based machines such as the iPhone, which simply doesn't exist.

Could it be made? Absolutely. Go talk to Adobe about this one.

Same here. There were PowerBooks long before there was PowerPC, so there's no reason why we can't have a Woodcrest Power Mac. It's got "Mac" in the name, so it should be safe.

MacBook Pro, and now Mac Pro? Excuse me while I wretch on my PowerBook.

"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
