The new iMac makes a leap

Apple has released a new iMac generation that has a couple of more powerful features that you may have overlooked by it’s visual design: HD video and internal hard drive capacity of 1 terabyte in size. And built-in support for optical digital audio too.

I’m not sure anyone else is shipping a consumer system with these features…it’s their high end configuration but clearly demonstrates the penetration of these features for ‘home’ users. My first Mac shipped with 512K RAM and NO internal hard drive…How about your first computer?

Well today moving forward its 1 Terabyte capacity. Yup…Terabyte.

My first computer was technically a pentium2 400mhz with 128mb of ram in 1998. The first computer I used was my parents’ Apple 2G or something like that. Programming in basic was always exciting.

HP has a new machine out in October designed specifically for hardcore (and rich) gamers. It offers a variety of interchangeable specs, most notably:

– Intel® Core2™ Extreme Quad-Core 3.0GHz
– 1GB 1GHz CORSAIR PC2-8500 DDR2 SDRAM
– Four FSB-DIMM slots supporting up to 8 GB of main memory
– ATI RADEON X2900™ XT 1GB, with 1GB of GDDR2 SDRAM, (available with liquid-cooling)
– Five independent Serial ATA slot loading hard drive bays; up to 4TB of internal storage

4TB!!! insane!
