Digitimes is like the ugly sister in the family. We'd all like to forget about her, but we can't.
I guess we can just shove her in the closet.
Here's to the Crazy Ones
Heck, about a month ago one site on the Net was quoting Digitimes and a rumor they had - based on "reliable sources" that Apple would release Yonah PowerBooks in Taiwan in... late Spring, or June? And they were talking about the worldwide debut, too, not just the Taiwanese market... Why would Apple release a Yonah PowerBook in Taiwan, months after their PC competitors, and in June, right when they're focusing on WWDC?
No, I haven't put much faith in anything DigiTimes has said for a couple of years now...
And speaking of relatives, DigiTimes kinda reminds me of that crazy, one-wide-eyed & scowling, grizzle-bearded uncle, who sat on the porch drooling & snoozing the day away, but then would suddenly rustle to life and bellow out, "Back when I was a kid, we used to have to spacewalk 5 miles to school through an asteroid field both ways, and had to share one umbrella during meteor showers... zzz... And did I tell you about the time I gave old Gracknee Brrrz 3 black eyes and a broken antennae just for lookin' at my girl with his horns tied behind his back... zzz..."
Still, a flash drive would be handy if it was big enough to store the MacOS X environment (keep a continuously-updated copy on main hard drive)... Kinda how a traffic cop can see better what's going on at a busy intersection if they're looking down on it, and can then better direct traffic to avoid accidents & bottlenecks - does that make sense? How it would work with NAND flash is a tad beyond my knowledge... But Apple can't be putting all those flash chips they've been buying up between now and 2010 in iPods - where are they gonna put 'em?
