in Current Mac Hardware edited January 2014
The big question in my mind is what is the deal with the new processors? G4e? G5 seems a little extreme for me. <a href="http://www.macnn.com/news.php?id=10791"; target="_blank">MacNN</a> did a crapy job making this clear for me. Im not sure if this sould be in future hardware eather. I so confused! <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

    There are barely any differences between the 74x1s and the 74x0s. Looks like a minor refresh to me...like then the G3s went from aluminum to copper...no big whoop. I'm surprised it took MacNN and other news sites this long to find it. I posted about these processors a week or two ago at Ars Technica.

    The 7451 , according Motorola is a law consomption version of the 7450 without any L3 cache and working on 1,5 volts. Perhaps Apple use this version in is Tibook.

    That would be the 7440/7441.
