Correct, shuttle cases.
I've never been a fan, you are limited to the power of the hardware you use.
You can't stick an Audigy 2 ZS in this mac, or anything simular for amazing sound, you just have a standard apple. I suggest you buy a proper PC or Mac, full size if you wish to use it for powerful apps and music.

Er, not quite. this thing is much, much smaller than a shuttle. As was 2001's G4 Cube -- overpriced!!
iPod shuffle: not the nicest looking, but tiny, lightweight, and incredibly practical. Will sell very well. Also, it's not shuffle only.

but 120 songs is crap. my 2gb jukebox has over 3o hrs of chems music and still only have full X-D
err... 120 songs is just a quote apple gives based on 160kbps, 4 minute tracks... I don't see where you're coming from here, you come off as ignorant, seeing as it's all simply storage capacity.

The new products see like they are stalling the G5 Powerbooks :(
Although I wont be buying one of those seeing as a bought a 15" pb G4 one a few months ago.
To be honest after having used mac and pc for years I think apple and their os is overrated.
The Ipod shuffle just seems sort of like....all the other flash mp3 players with no lcd.
The shuttles are pretty sweet, bigger and heavier, if you actually need to take it around but at least you can add pci cards, a good vid card, and put in a powerful AMD 64 or a P4.

I say Mac mini :P
Can't use PCI cards with Mac mini though, I recommend Firewire for audio throughput.
Logic will be amazing on it -- Reason can't touch Logic.

I know, that's frustrating! but G5 Powerbook just isn't possible yet... At least without sacrificing important factors.

What... how is that even possible? Please elaborate.... And please don't say "this is my opinion." I know you're a good guy, I hope I haven't come off as a arrogant asswipe.

Not quite -- greater integration with computer, etc. There's more to measure than specs.
Now... the way it looks is rather average.

This is true, but considering the market....
Also, please do not, ever, praise the P4. Please.
