It'd be wonderfully convenient if you could take your important documents and applications with you wherever you go, but lugging a laptop with you every time you step out the door is far from convenient. That's where MokaFive's new cross-platform application called iPhone Sentinel comes in. By turning part of your iPhone or iPod touch into a portable hard drive, iPhone Sentinel and the MokaFive Player allow you to run virtual machines directly off your iPhone, so you can run anything from an entire operating system to standalone video games like Quake.

LOL....Plus a deeper wallet. Apple surely knows how to dig out people eye....If Apple was a woman, she would be the ULTIMATE GOLD DIGGER.

i dont think so...they price their stuff (well iphone and ipods pretty well)

Just the computers that they need to work down the price on

[Technoboy]

LOL @ Iphone being well priced. For what it does (and doesn't do) that crap is way overpriced.

Dont think any of there products are over priced, as graphic designer apple products are top choice, it all depends on what you need it for, if is just word processing you doing sure yuh can find a new windows laptop for $US300.

Love apple's design and yes they are definatley the graphics designer's right hand but man it nuh change the fact that dem computer stil expensive bwoy. if u had the 1500US fi dem laptop id shell it out without thinking

Shelling out 1500 For a laptop that has no benefit short of the brand is "without thinking" indeed.

They use the same CPU, RAM, Video cards as traditional PC's. They are not using PowerPc anymore, so other than the look, what is the reason to get less laptop hardware for the same money ? Laptop hardware being un-upgradable ?

Say what now? People buy a Mac for the stability of OSX, it just works compared to Windows. The hardware is nothing if it doesn't have a good OS to boot. Put Windows on a hardware powerful as a Mac and you'd be under served.
