Thank you Steve site adds "Daily Stevequote"

seriously, it is lame

they use the same theme as amazon.com's logo and are complete dorks about this whole 30th anniversary thing. very lame.

"Show your thanks by sending us photos of yourselves in your "Thank you, Steve!" gear."

... sheesh, what a lame site.

I don't know about you guys. I thought that the t-shirt seems to look more like what you'd see on a tomb stone.

Being how my (real) name is also Steve, I should buy this shirt. I'd look like such a geek!

so, Friday - its got to be of the TAM... a black iMac with TV Tuner and a new version of Front Row that rocks the socks off of Media Center PC.

Or just stuff a G5 in an original Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh... for kicks. Oh, I have a snookered iBook, what a mod that'd be - anyone got a TAM casing?

Lots of folks were immediately saying "Apples won't be so expensive, now!" when the Intel transition was announced (mostly uninformed Windows users).

And I suppose that Apple can now use commodity chip-sets, and that will be a bit cheaper (if it is indeed true that Apple designed their own chip-sets).

But the Intel chip itself is much, much more expensive than the G5 (and much, much, much more expensive than the G4). Apple's greatest challenge is in maintaining their profitability while they make this switch, it seems to me.

The price on the Core Duo is correct to order of magnitude. Maybe it's $150 (I doubt it) -- that's still about twice the cost of a G5, IIRC. It seems more likely to me that it's in the $200 to $275 range.

This switch is not without risks. Intel chips are the most expensive consumer offerings to be had (and many would say overpriced).
