apple new stuff reactions

well overall i’m disappointed at apple’s new announcements:

new macminis - overpriced in my opinion, especially with only 512MB ram. even with the speed improvements, putting the 1.67 core duo @800 dollars base price is too much. they should have put a tv tuner in there. it makes absolutely no sense to keep the imac price the same and raise the macmini price. update: ok, it comes with standard bluetooth and wifi which makes it a bit better. i also saw a dual layer superdrive as standard on the high end model as well. But, it has 64MB of shared video memory which is God awful. the price doesn’t look completely terrible now, but the fact that it now has shared memory really really sucks. maybe this is a byproduct of using intel on the low end? who knows. such a disappointment here.
ipod speaker accessory - i already have one of these and it costed me $90. ~~what makes this one from apple worth $350? i have no idea. way overpriced.~~ just looked at the design and i can see why it costs so much. it’s not your ordinary 2 inch speaker setup, it looks to be pretty well engineered. i’m not in the market for this though. good for dorms and those lookin for a sleek lookin stereo in their bachelor pad. that’s not me.
$100 ipod case - who cares? i don’t.

well, i guess i can be happy that my pockets are safe. thanks apple for a lackluster announcement. my credit cards thank you even more.
