The Medallion Also, macs run

The Medallion

Also, macs run windows right? How about a MBP The Medallion the latest verson of OSX and Vista ultimate SP tblu-ray etc. that right there at least in my opinion, is one sweet system. the only one youll ever need since you have the best of both worlds. Apple needs to know not everyone has fast internet connection speeds. I see a lot of people complaining about how much battery life would suffer if Macs had Blu-ray drives. How often would you watch a 2 hour movie on battery power? Where are you at for that long without access to AC? Camping in the woods?:p OK, I jest, but come on. Doing anything CPU or GPU intensive is going to drain the battery quickly. I see lots of people playing video games at my uni. They are almost always The Medallion in at the time. And the price of Blu-ray drives? Who cares if they are expensive? There are obviously plenty of people willing to pay for them. Let them have a BTO option. im sorry but the day when apple starts selling any mac with microsoft OSs is the day that i start to loose trust in them. that just makes me shiver. yes thast a very good point, the MAIN power drain would be from CPU/GPU usage, not optical media. if its anything to judge by apples coding of QuickTime which, to watch a 1080p rip on my computer uses a good 95% CPU whilst stuttering every other frame im not 100% sure if the battery life would exceed 5 hours, what with the optical drive constantly spinning AND the CPU going along. i care if their expensive. i dont know where your family background lies but my family isnt that rich, BluRay discs are very expensive, let alone for the player to play them with. hell i spend 4/5 of my weekly wage just getting to uni! Good point about the BTO though, when i finally get out into the proper workforce hopefully there will be newer technologies for me to spend all of my monies on eheh. The biggest thing is a true HD 1080p compressed rip is around 10 gigs, I know this because I use torrent sites bit. However I may add that it is NOT illegal to download content over the internet in Canada. It was ruled in Paris in 2005 that anything on the internet was not considered intectual property and thus copyrights do not apply to it. I do this mainly because apple offers nothing that can compare to this. I would gladdy buy Blu Ray movies, but the option is not there. Apple claims to have full res HD, however its watered The Medallion compared to full res stuff. Blu Ray is still very important 10 gigs is a big amount to download and takes days. For the next few years I believe that HD optical media must remain present due to the lack of bandwidth generally seen by isps. PS: New ACDs would mostly included iSight camera, IR receiver, adnd DisplayPort, not HDMI or DVI. DisplayPort is junk. It cant drive screen resolutions any higher than DVI/HDMI, it isnt more secure, its non-standard and its no better than DVI in general. i care if their expensive. i dont know where your family background lies but my family isnt that rich, BluRay discs are very expensive, let alone for the player to play them with. Do you own a Blu-ray player? You make discs sound as if their 5 times the price.
