I am hoping that they bite the bullet and finally make an ultralight macbook pro/duo replacement.

MacBook Air, anyone?

I'm thinking about it.

13 hours to go.

i'd just like them to fix safari :(

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 12:38 (sixteen years ago) link

my dream of an imac/macbook air docking situation is looking less and less likely by the hour.

if the "air" hook really does have to do with wimax, i wouldn't be surprised if it's bundled with a carrier and will only be available to start in the us, kinda like the iphone was. that said, my roommate's gf works at the apple store and they've all been told to anticipate new hardware in the stores on thursday, so maybe they'll roll out the thin laptop regardless...

what's broken with safari, DG?

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 12:53 (sixteen years ago) link

it gobbles all my RAM, it wanted 800MBs the other day for looking at ILX, the grauniad and teh imdb

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 12:55 (sixteen years ago) link

it quits when i go in yootoob at the moment, the swine

That one guy that hit it and quit it, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 12:58 (sixteen years ago) link

what version of safari are you running?

cutty, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:01 (sixteen years ago) link

btw why is there no iphone thread? google just added push gmail to iphone...

cutty, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:02 (sixteen years ago) link

3.0.4

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:04 (sixteen years ago) link

My only gripe with safari is that it bombs out when it gets redirected by WIFI routers to a payment or Ts&Cs page. Was a problem with version 2 and still there in 3. Is not that much of an issue if you have firefox lying around.

Ed, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:04 (sixteen years ago) link

mac firefox sucks

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:05 (sixteen years ago) link

otherwise i'd use it all the time

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:05 (sixteen years ago) link

indeed, but it can be used to pay for hotel wifi.

Ed, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:05 (sixteen years ago) link

being unable to find the perfect browser is one of the few things that pisses me off about macs

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:07 (sixteen years ago) link

safari is mostly perfect for me. i used to use firefox but that became bloated and glitcy.

cutty, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:13 (sixteen years ago) link

safari is fine with me except for the occasional times when it just can't load a site right or work right, in which case I use firefox. It's usually a problem with forms and stuff like that.

dan selzer, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:29 (sixteen years ago) link

oh yeah, download Tiger or Leopard Cache Cleaner and run it's Safari Optimization option. It fixed my Safari which used to be really slow and now it's really fast again.

dan selzer, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 13:29 (sixteen years ago) link

Well, the apple store online is now closed.

Ed, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 14:41 (sixteen years ago) link

DG did you ignore my post about Safari yesterday

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 14:49 (sixteen years ago) link

no i replied, it was R and not V

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 14:50 (sixteen years ago) link

in fact if i inspect the process it says safari is using 16,777,216TB of shared memory which i doubt very much

its current rsize is 300MB and i've only got a couple of tabs open with nothing remarkable in any of them

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 14:57 (sixteen years ago) link

come on guys this is bizarre

DG, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:25 (sixteen years ago) link

application will grab as much as they can, if it's available.

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:28 (sixteen years ago) link

applications

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:28 (sixteen years ago) link

seriously...tiger cache cleaner...my Safari was a total hog and acting really slow and sluggish. I selected one pull down option from said shareware application and everything was fixed.

dan selzer, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:35 (sixteen years ago) link

Good app, that. I'm running the Leopard version now.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:36 (sixteen years ago) link

cutty how do y'get this push imap then?

stet, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 15:56 (sixteen years ago) link

I thought it was just auto-refresh they've added?

czn, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:43 (sixteen years ago) link

So, 15 minutes. macrumors still the best site for immediate coverage, yes, no?

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:46 (sixteen years ago) link

push imap for gmail? what is this, last november?

^@^, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:46 (sixteen years ago) link

arstechnica's going to have live updates on their homepage, too

i'm only interested because if they announce an appletv that actually works i want it real bad

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:47 (sixteen years ago) link

s1ocki, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:49 (sixteen years ago) link

seriously, i would give my third nut for a dockable macbook air/imac

^@^, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:50 (sixteen years ago) link

deal

s1ocki, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:51 (sixteen years ago) link

1.1.3 iPhone firmware too pls. I've been stranded after picking up an 1.1.2 phone in America around the turn of the year, which I've been unable to unlock and use as more than a fancy iPod Touch.

czn, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:51 (sixteen years ago) link

all indications are that 1.1.3 is going to be a bitch to unlock though, czn! something about hash keys and that

^@^, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:53 (sixteen years ago) link

you can downgrade that to 1.1.1 and unlock that though, i think?

^@^, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:53 (sixteen years ago) link

new displays, new subnotebook and new appletv that isn't useless pls apple
, er, ^^^

stet, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:54 (sixteen years ago) link

: / apparently it's a bootloader issue that they're only going to (potentially) be able to unlock with intro of 1.1.3

czn, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:54 (sixteen years ago) link

i swear to god i've learned like 50 new words just from following the iphone unlock shenanigans

^@^, Tuesday, 15 January 2008 16:56 (sixteen years ago) link

useful appletv would be great.
