Hi All!
The one thing I wish Apple had released was better Quicktime Streaming

connection would freeze! Did anyone else have this problem?
Personally, I think the new iMacs look great! Combined with the current and

Freight costs should be ruled out as the cause of any significant
difference since it shouldn't cost anymore to ship to Aus than US from
Taiwan. The same goes for insurance costs.
Sure there's GST and I don't know what other duties are applied but I've

Can anyone properly explain the extra 6% (=$237/$3958).
perhaps there is some other cost factor, like, hmm, licensing, rent, wages,
advertising, the need to make a profit, that kinda thing?
Yes but those costs/profits would already be factored into the US price
if using that as the base. Times 2 when converted in $A.
Advertising. What advertising?

There's heaps. Every music-recording, graphic design ( probably digital

full-page or double page spread. Probably in lots of other mags I don't

No. Not all markets are the same

nerve. :)
Surely the US price includes all their taxes etc... thus I don't really
think that Apple Australia should slug a further 10% on top of that. Sure,

From my recollection of the keynote, Apple's top end new iMac comes
in at US $1799.
... so how on earth does this correlate to Apple Australia's pricing
on the same machine to be $4195?!
Say the exchange rate is around US$1 for AUST$0.50
$1799 * 2 = $3598, not $4195.
Once again, Apple

Hi All!
I just want to add to this discussion as someone who lived in the US for 17
years...
Darren makes an excellent point. The advertised prices in the USA EXCLUDE
state GST which (in the state of Florida) is 6.5% but in other states can
get as high as 13%.

Hi Guys,

laugh Ever been to the US and been shopping? Each state can have
different taxes. And they're often added _at the till_ rather than
included on the sticker price.

I just helped out my Motherinlaw with her new Dell. On it there was a program
that seemed similar to iPhoto. It seems that Apple was caught napping and had
to play catch up. I need to get my first portable and wish but feel that if
they announce a speed bump soon, I will have missed the boat.
Just thought you all might like to know that Retrospect is now available in
public preview form for OSX.

Hello wamug,
Love the new desklamp, sorry iMac.
I actually didn't like it at first, but the more I looked at it on quicktime
VR, the more I liked it. Can't wait to see it in the flesh, so to speak.
Anyway, well before I can afford one of them, I need a digital camera for my
iMac.

This whole discussion thread is probably fairly pointless - Apple is

Yes, but Andrew, it seems to be a tradition that we have this discussion
after every major product release from Apple. It's the rder of things around
here.
My cousin recently made me a copy of a movie that he downloaded from the

not run on my computer.
It has been put on a CD and there are 3 visible folders in the CD (AVI, NFO,
