It better be 64-bit, and be multi-core and thread aware. Open cl support too.
It also needs a severe makeover, and avchd native support.
The performance of FCP also needs some serious attention. I think apple needs to move away from using QuickTime 7 as the base for the program.
Using the same exact media on my Drobo S, the playback performance is like butter on Avid MediaComposer 5 when compared to Final Cut. The difference is really pathetic actually. Apple better have something good this time. The last update was mediocre at best.

He did it with an app called geektool. It takes a little know how to do, but there are plenty of dummy proof guides on youtube.
I used to use geektool until I got a few Kernal panics and I noticed my mac taking a performance hit from it. Be careful when your messing with system tweaks!
What is a Kernal Panic?
Im guessing I probably shouldn't mess with it then? I really enjoy having a stable system at the moment. This computer is just about perfect. Just wish I would have bought the 15" instead of 13" MBP. I will be taking it back tomorrow or the next day, weather permitting of course. Here in Dallas we have been getting some wicked nasty snow storms, for around here anyway.

Easiest solution would be for Google to port their current maps and navigation software to iOS. Not that Apple would allow it, and not that Google would want to do it :). I love competition...

I didn't get a 4 because I was holding out for a bigger screen. I really want to keep buying Apple products. But at this point, if the phone is delayed or the screen is staying the same size, I am going to have to start checking out some of the HTCs. My 3G is almost unusable since OS4.Enjoy! HTC looks a very capable phone. Cheers! It sounds like you need an upgrade, too. I'm on the original iPhone — but I know whatever I buy will have to do me for 2-3 years so I'm waiting on iPhone 5, no matter what.
Good, bad, right or wrong, Apple [...] it rolls out its "cloud." [...] flips the switch [...] No iPhone until late fall at earliest. Probably not until next year.Nice insight... your sources?
-------
I can understand frustration — feeling it too, just not venting — the tea leaves all pointed to new iPhones in June and then, Blammo. But we have to realize that Apple does not want to be predictable. We don't really know just exactly how the JAPAN devastation affected Apple and how it will deliver its products. That could be very well what has delayed things. If this is the case, patience is all we can give anybody at this point. They lost so much.

Although Serlet did a good fairly job leading the Mac software division, he did oversee all the flaws in it as well. UI fragmentation, iTunes bloat, etc. Let's see what the new guy can do.

I'll be going in tomorrow morning to give blood, conveniently my school has organised a Blood Drive at the same time as MacRumors! Hopefully all goes well and someone will benefit from what my organs have to offer.
I will be giving this week as well
Amazing! Make sure to post a picture in the Blood Drive thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1146112) and tell us what you donated.
All donations mentioned in that thread get added to the honour roll (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=12496773&highlight=#post12496773).

Have people maybe stoped to think, that we may not get a new model this year? That the reason they are putting out the white model now, is to cover the fact we won't see a update till next year?
It could mean that the iPhone 5 will keep the same form factor as the iPhone 4. If it dose they can easily use the white outer shells they are now making for the iPhone 4 in the iPhone 5.

�Kids should have a level of respect for their parents that keeps them from having sex if their parents feel they should not� �I think that having sex against the wishes of a parent is disrespectful to a degree�.
I agree. I�d make it legal for people to consent to sex at a younger age but I also feel that parents need to retain the authority to withhold their consent for a 16year old to go out if they can�t trust their child to behave responsibly. It takes trust, respect and responsibility on the part of both parent and child. I think the subject needs to be more openly discussed, say my 14year old son wants to consent to sex with his 14year old girlfriend, there shouldn�t be any reason that I can�t call up the girl�s parents to talk it through before I let him out to a party etc.
�Personally I don't think most 18 year olds are emotionally mature enough to maintain a sexual relationship - they tend to be too self centered and shortsighted about what they are doing. I know several couples that got together at a very young age, some on purpose and others as the result of an "accident" child. None of them, I think, are very happy with the decision they made�
I too know couples who�ve been together since a young age having been �caught out� and who aren�t happy with their situation. However I know some that are very happy and some that are unhappy having waited until they were older and planned a family but have grown apart for other reasons etc. etc.

My biggest issue with this is when I buy the movie, I expect to be able to watch it on whatever I want, i.e. my HDTV, PowerBook, iPod, or, even in the near future, mobile device, as long as I own the device it's being played on.
When movie industries get the idea that limiting the devices you can play the movie on makes people want to buy the movie even less, then I might consider buying movies online. Until then, I'll stick with DVDs...

Can someone make it look nicer? This is the wallpaper:
