    #iMac G5.

    Gizmodo writes of Apple’s new G5 iMac…:

    I thought this picture from the floor in Paris does a lot better job of illustrating what the new iMac G5s look like in real life than Apple’s product images.

    This (of course?) hammers home but one point to me: Is this not currently the smallest 64-bit processor computer on the market today? Now, assuming the Screen Spanning Doctor applies to this model (”already” or “soon enough”, take your pick), this might very well become a front-runner as the most desirable computer on the market. As some have already noted…

    G5 iMac (17″) G5 PowerMax w/ 17″ Apple Display
    $1,953.00 $2,424.00
    * Breaking it down here w/r/t/ the configuration on each of the above MSRPs… We’re talking 1 GB of RAM, 160GB SATA HD, 17″ display, Airport added, Bluetooth added, modem subtracted (on the PowerMac), and both outfitted with a SuperDrive. Granted, said PowerMac is a dual-processor beast but for home PC action…

    #subpoenas & shit.

    Call me paranoid, but for some reason this feels a lot like posting the “names, address and phone numbers” of abortion clinic doctors.


    #thrilling conclusion.

    1. open up the box again.
    2. re-seat problematic PCI cards.
    3. re-start
    4. bask in operation glory.
    5. hang head in shame for not seating the cards properly in the first f%*#ing place.
