It may be that a computer that is my TV interface is a great way to manage the data that comes through my television, then a Apple TV is still a computer, albeit focused on harnessing one very large set of data.

Apple does not produce stuff for idiots, I assume.

One thing is so much better: select HD videos from iTunes to watch on the retina MacBook Pro. That’s the real thing. What a great computer, especially under Mountain Lion. Scrolling is so much improved. I don’t need a TV anymore at all.

I wonder how bad ass a 12 core G5 would be right about now.

Time’s running out, Tim. To quote Robert Service, “A promise made is a debt unpaid.”

Now if the rumors would get back to those supposed iMacs that were to arrive in 2012 and Mac Pros in 2013. Let’s put the word ‘computer’ back in Apple!

Apple executives have crushed wild speculation. If this keeps up the rumor mill will soon be gathering dust.
