 At least somebody's moving towards tomorrow.  I'm sure Apple will have their own DVR by 2007.

  cool.  my woman has a G4 that she wont even touch anymore cause its super slow.  but i dont have the money to buy her a g5.

what does she try and do on it that is so slow, I still use a G3 for all of my music purposes, it is not fast by any means, but it does the job nicely [/b]

well its her primary computer. she does graphic design, so illustrator,quark and all that just doesnt cut it for her.  and her internet is MUCH slower than mine, running off the same router.

well she she will always want as fast as she can get then, but I bet if she backed up all of her work on to an external drive and reinstalled the os and basically started again from scratch it would run much better, but I guess that really cant be done unless she has copies of all the software

I dont think tivos are evil because they arent good at what they do or are aren't innovative, I just dont like it because of what it accomplishes, more tv
 
 I watch enough tv as it is with just 4 channels, tivo would be then end of me doing anything productive, and I dont even like tv much, but I am very good at sitting in front of it and doing nothing, I would much rather be using a mini mac rather than a tivo
 
 I wont be buying either
 
 maybe apple will release a dvr once sony buys them and scraps the vaio and releases the playstation dvr as designed by apple to compete with the xbox dvr

 Yeah, what speed G4? It might just need cleaning up, re-installing the OS..... It might not be super quick, but it should not be as slow as Econo.

Yeah a g4, especially older one really wont cut it for heavy graphics apps. It should run safari quickly enough though....
