Re: New Xeons for next year

[Herb Sevush] "Brigadoon (once every hundred years)"

LOLZ.

Brigadoon (the movie, 1954) is a standing joke in my family. (All star cast. Budget. Minelli. All That Plaid. Turkey.)

Anyway, I'm in despair watching the Yankees go down... see? step 3 already and its only the bottom of the 6th. Just like the 2013 "something special".

With zero zippo nada nil zilcherama consultation, sure its what we're all waiting around for with bated breath. Apple knows where the puck is going, right? (Errr... except when the players are locked out, I guess.) See the Samsung commercials -- Especially think: the "headphone plug will be on the bottom -- (boom *blows my mind*) nitwit waiting for the next big errrr... i-thingy. Can think of dozens of "improvements" that no one is asking for that will make the systems unuseable. Something magnetic? Something that limits all that "guesswork" and "ambiguity" that just drives us simple-minded folk crazy... so sure, Apple will just decide for us we don't need that anymore. Especially all those $6-$7K GPU expanders a lot of us now own in the vain attempt to row upstream from the waterfalls.

You know, I think its great I've got this iPad with MLB.tv running -- its just like a transistor radio with pictures. The quad split view is great, reminds me of working in the truck. This novelty is a great boon to personal entertainment. Maybe Apple should really concentrate its efforts there and just surrender to the hypocrisy of all that smug "I'm a Mac' (and noticeably superior) bs. Yeah, they were funny, but now that Hodgman is running circles around Justin Long, the laughs are harder to come by. I'm just waiting for Microsoft to pick up on that idea. That would be "something special".
