Ok enough b*tchin' already.....

let's get down to business.

SJ is no idiot, Apple are going Intel for a reason, most likely a good one.



So we're going to Intel, sure the the PPC had more potential...

potential schmotential if it ain't yielding results. Too bad but so be it.



What I wanna know is:



What's this roadmap ? We have over a year before the first Intel based Powermacs hit the market.

Show me the contestants.



Anyone think the Powermac will die altogether ? Maybe we'll finally see a nice

ultra-quiet X-station. Like a 2-4U version of the Xserve, but whisper quiet....

Which to me, as an audio pro, seems super sweet.



Let's look forward to what he future may bring.



Fire away!

    Actually I think Steve was telling the truth when he said that the next powerpc's they cant use. either too hot, require too much power or both. like he stated, where is teh 3ghz G5? Where is the powerbook g5? I don't think he was lying.

    The funny thing about the Intel switch: NO more secrecy about the processors, heck you can easily see roadmaps if you go to theinquirer.org , the have the latest roadmaps for notebook and server the last time I checked. We can even see the prices of each processor.



    I don't hate the switch, I just LOVE the OS ( OS X ofcourse).
