A Norweigian using the "offense" spelling and an American using the "arse" spelling - fascinating, Mr. Spock.:D

Wouldn't it be ironic if they have just managed to shoehorn a G5 chip into the PBs just as they are going over to Intel.

Just a thought.

That's because I didn't know if they allowed the ass word here.

Ok, I might be living under a rock for the past few days but
Another one? Is this going to be a once a week thing?
Pro Innovations? meaning PowerMacs/Powerbooks?

They are really trying to make me spend money just when
I decided to sit back and wait for the Intel machines.
They failed to do that this past 2 events now
I have to brace myself for another announcement.

when I heard "pro" I thought of Pro. Maybe upgraded XServes, Final Cut Pro, etc.

No rock, just look at the calendar. Apple is finally getting into the Christmas spirit. No, not the one that expanded the heart of the Grinch, the spirit of increased consumer spending.

My wife has trouble buying gifts for me, so I give subtle hints like, "Hey honey, look at this! The Complete Collection of Calvin and Hobbes is available in October for only $95! That would sure be neat for my birthday! I got it early and have been LOVING it. Great quality pages in a wonderful hardbound package.

Perhaps I will do the same for whatever is announced on Wednesday. (heh)

Looking forward to tomorrow's announcement and a new Apple Store page to drool over. ;)

Frankly, I can’t see why Apple would wait. This is what I have been suspecting all along. I never truly believed that the market would have to wait until June ’06 for the new Macs.

Yes!! Apple and Intel has done it! Way ahead of schedule, although my prediction missed by two months.
