    Oh I found it: CrossOver Mac. Not sure if it will support Vista though.

    Seeing as Crossover doesn't require MS-Windows, it doesn't "support" any version thereof. It emulates Windows APIs.

    Don't discount microsoft - they have money to lose for years in trying to get #1 for MP3 - slowly they creep up and overturn Apple - apple doesn't ahve the same stamina.

    A long term commitment, not a short term thing.

    That's what worries me. They don't get #1 by being the best, they get to #1 because they can lose money for years and drive the competition to the ground. Look at the Xbox and Xbox 360 as a perfect example. They're still in the red, no a single cent of profit from the two consoles.

    hahaha, yes, indeed.
    Just put up the whole calendar and say, "one of these days, we'll get an iPad 3, and an iPhone 5."

    Maybe this is already being done (if so, I'm not aware), but it would be very nice if PREDICTIONS for iPhone and iPad were tracked. I'd love to see a chart that shows all the predictions, including the dates they were made, what the prediction was, in terms of speculated release dates, and finally, the accuracy of the prediction.

    We get ambiguous statements in the MacRumors reports, along the lines of "this analyst/reporter has demonstrated viable sources in the past;" however I don't think there's any hard reporting on how accurate past predictions have been. All we have to do is just think about the iPad2 predictions that were being made as late as January to comprehend how wrong they are ... and that was on the practical eve of release.

    I vote for Page 2 as well. Or page 3.

    this sounds very interesting and futuristic. i wonder how you click, or make a selection. it would be pointless if you could scroll wothout touching the screen, but had to touch it in order to click on the scroll wheel.
    im excited though! sounds cool!

    I don't believe this. Why would Apple waste money on a carrier that has just been bought?

    you know.. the US isn't the only country in the world.

    i think Apple wants to offer the iPhone to as many users as possible, and the only way to do that is to offer it on as many networks as possible.

    there are companies all over the world that run on the same bands as t-mobile.

    Where's the personal responsibility/Apple shouldn't do things for their customer comments? I thought that was all the rage now a days...

    I haven't seen those.To what were they referring?

    Show me where Apple calls Pages a consumer app (http://www.apple.com/iwork/pages/).


    Oh come on at least give the guy something!

    It is common knowledge that Apple markets two principle lines.

    The consumer line which used to be prefaced by an "i". iWork, iLife, iBook, iPod, etc.

    And the Pro line which used to be prefaced by power or Pro . Ex: PowerBook, PowerMac, Final Cut Pro. etc.

    I am also sure that if you review the introduction of Pages at MacWorld it was intended to compete as a consumer product and not a replacement for Word by Steve Jobs. He is always very careful about how he phrases things so that he doesn't upset, MS or Adobe, when they come out with these apps.

    man how much would this thing cost? the 27" display is already 1000 bucks, and this would have to be at lease 42" for people to put it in their living rooms.

    I think this would have worked fine for just the full screen mode. But for the window I think it is just too distracting. Having a brown window in a sea of uniform gray windows, even in the background, will be continually distracting.

    Welcome to the twelfth installment of the Simple Werewolves Game!

    The game will begin as soon as discussion and sign-ups conclude. The number of people that sign-up will dictate how many and what type of werewolves we have in the game.

    This game is a blend of simple and live formats. This means that lynching occurs after a time period, not majority. Specials also only have 24 hours to PM.

    GAME RULES:

    THE GOOD GUYS:

    Hunter: The Hunter can pick a player to protect every night against werewolf attacks. However, the Hunter cannot protect the same player two nights in a row, and cannot protect him/herself. The protection does extend into the daytime, meaning the Hunter can protect a villager from a Kamikaze Werewolf attack.

    Seer: The Seer can find the true role of any ALIVE player.

    Villager: Same as before.

    Neighborhood Watch: Three elves that can exchange PMs with one another. Their members can be infected and they cannot recruit additional members. They have no decisions to PM to me. What they discuss is up to them. The roles of Neighborhood Watch will only be giving if there are more then 15 people playing.

    THE BAD GUYS:

    The Werewolves: Werewolves can PM each other. They pick one villager to eat per night. There are three kinds of werewolves;

    a) Alpha Wolf, can at any time during the game, pick one villager to infect. This will convert the villager into a normal werewolf (no special abilities) and join the werewolves' team. The infection is effective against specials such as the Seer.

    b) Kamikaze Werewolf has the ability to pick any one villager to kill during his lynching. In other words, if he is voted to be hanged, he will take one villager with him.

    c) The normal Werewolf has no powers.

    Miscellaneous:

    a) Villagers can NOT PM each other. (exception: neighborhood watch members)

    b) Werewolves CAN PM each other.

    c) Players can edit their posts during the game is in progress, however if you edit your post, you MUST give an explanation of why/what you edited.

    d) (a.k.a. the jav6454 rule (by the way of -aggie-) :D) Dead players can NOT participate in the game - this includes providing information, encouragement, tips or otherwise. This has been an issue in the previous game, so I'm going to be more strict with this. Dead players are eligible to ONE post following his death. This one post follows the same rules as before - cannot influence the game, and so forth. Posts consisting of little more than an image is DISCOURAGED, so please avoid this. Dead players are allowed to post as much or as often as they want. But they must make all of there posts in the colour gray. The posts are also not allowed to influence the game in any way. If you are unsure of a post topic, don't post it. Good posts are along the lines of "Good job villagers!". A bad post would be: "I think Bob is a wolf." If people start posting things that could influence the game, I will ask them to edit the post to remove the offending text then reinstate the jav rule.

    e) Voting for lynching will close 24 hours after day has started. (Unless stated otherwise.)

    f) Voting can only take place in the daytime. Any votes made during the night will not be counted.

    g) For clarity, when you vote, bold the name of the player you're voting for. This alleviates confusion and makes it easier for me to count the votes. You can also play with this - "I really like Bob, he's a great guy" counts as a vote for Bob You can jokingly vote by not bolding the name - it will not be counted.

    h) You can retract and change your vote at any time up to the close of the vote.

    i) The game will begin at DAYTIME, the days are 24 hours unless specified else. The person with the most votes will be lynched at that time. In the event of a tie, the first person to that number of votes is lynched.

    j) There will be a TIME LIMIT of 24 hours for Specials to send in their PMs. The time limit will be 24 hours after the posting of the lynching. (NOT after the voting closes). Please remember that you can pre-PM these actions at the start of the day preceding the night in question. You can change this action up until the next morning. I also remind you that the villagers can agree to not lynch anyone with a unanimous vote.

    k) I will post special results as soon as I am online and have them all. Thus, it is highly recommended that you set your profile to invisible mode so that other posters cannot view your login activity to see if you were online in the period between lynching and special results.

    l) Villagers will now be told if they are scanned or protected. Specials should consider this before preforming their actions.

    m) This question has came up in the discussion, so here is the turn order during the night:
    Werewolf infects
    Seer scans;
    Hunter protects;
    Werewolves attack.

    n) If a player is a mod, he or she is not allowed to use their other godly powers to alter the game.

    o) It is recommended that the players put their status into Invisible Mode.

    To do this:
    Go to User CP (http://forums.macrumors.com/usercp.php)
    Edit options
    Check Invisible Mode

    Will it support playing graphic intensive Windows games? That's the only think Parallels doesn't do for me.
    boxlight

    In general you won't want to use any kind of virtualization solution for something processor & video intense like this. You'll want to just use boot camp.

    As for being harsh, it seems like every time a thread on subject gets started, someone says Pages is only really suitable for newsletters, and not for "serious" writing. I find that most of the people who say this haven't gotten much past the template selection window. They see all those newsletter and flier templates and assume that this all Pages is good for. They've probably never created a template of their own and so are missing one of Pages' most powerful features.

    Part of the problem is the way they market it. There was such an emphasis on templates and graphic-intensive stuff when it was first demoed in MacWorld 2005 that it's hard to think it can be a good word processor. My first thought was how it looked 100x better than Microsoft Publisher.

    Again, I think this latest rumor shows that Apple will address some of the perceptions (or misperceptions, depending on who you ask) by allowing people to dive into word processing mode and adding better search and research functions. It just might make me a convert.
