New Apple goodness!
Hey what's in those boxes?!
Apple Goodies!!!
AppleTV is a very nice device. Got it to be able to show my daugther downloaded Russian movies, but the device actually way better than I initially thought - synchronizing photos and then showing them to our friends on our 46" HD TV should be a very satisfying experience :) (Thanks Paul for shipping it my way!)
And AirPort Extreme is pretty fast. I thought the speed will be faster - I'm getting about 3.5MBytes/s between my Mac and AppleTV in 812.11n-only 5GHz mode, though Internet download speeds are maxing at around 5MBytes/sec, so 3.5 is definitely not the device's limit, but probably AppleTV's one. And the configuration utility is best of its kinds! I was getting mighty sick of web-based config utility of my old wireless router.
And the new Mac, which is by the way the top-of-current-line model with maxed-out RAM (24-inch Core2Duo 3.06MHz iMac, NVidia 8800GT 512MB, 4GB RAM) - its a screamer! Bye-bye frustrating swapping and overall slowness of my old iMac (though it was a screamer in its time of course :)
