Is there any truth to the rumours of Apple working with Sega and entering the console market with an iMac hybrid that uses a joypad instead of keyboard and mouse, and an onscreen keyboard, called the iJoy? Ive heard its a response to Microsoft and the XBox. Spectre Software - RPGs, strategy, puzzle games, programming

I think that the very nature of the idea is that of evil incarnate.

Funny you should mention that Kingy, I heard the same rumour... maybe it is true?! I shall ask some people in some of the Mac forums, afterall that''s where I first heard about it. I thought they might have being pulling my leg, but enough people seem to have heard about this, maybe it is true. Being a Mac user myself, I would be very intregued to know exactly what Apple are setting out to achieve here, I mean an iMac hybrid that uses a joypad instead of a keyboard/mouse?!! LOL!

Keep us informed if you hear anything else Kingy

I doubt it. But whatever''s new is going to be up on the apple webpage tomorrow because thats when Steve Jobs gives his keynote speech. Sometime around early afternoon.

Yeah, like that will happen. It''s the Pippin all over again...

I''m betting on a video iPod or onboard Bluetooth. Something tiny, but hopefully cool.
