Pascal Cagni was the guest on TF1 in the show "Les Coulisses de l' Economie" tonight.
We saw during this show a G5 plugged to a 23" LCD.
Here are some reports:
By François:
The show treated these topics: i-tunes music store (which is a great success), presentation of the G5 as the fastest personal computer in the world with great design (the display model was a monoprocessor G5 with its side opened, running along an apple display 23") the journalist remarked that it was very quiet ! They also mentioned the dates of the Apple Expo (with Jean-Louis Aubert in concert...) The journalists seemed impressed by Apple even though they apparently did not use a Mac themselves, saying that these machines were aimed at multimedia professionals :-( Jean-Marc Sylvestre, the show's animator, has clearly said that computer science as of today was still experimental because machines crashed at least twice a day, Pascal Cagni told him it was time to switch :-)). Elie Cohen, famous economist from the CNRS who participate in many TV shows, came to speak about another subject, but seemed like an experimented Macintosh user. |
By wykazox:
In a few words, Apple Europe's CEO presenting the G5, reminding everyone of the Cube, saying that heavily tuned PCs are still not Macs (they really are ugly, these computers shaped as kegs or... cubes...), mentionning iTunes and the iTMS, announcing the Apple Expo dates (in case you don't know it already, that's from the 16th to the 20th of Sept.), talking about the excellent growth of the online Apple store (over 100% in aone year), and even advising Jean-Marc Sylvestre that it's time to switch because his computer crashes twice a day (apparently it is not a Mac...) |
