    I NEVER SAW SNOW IN MY WHOLE LIFE ! ... the temperature here is about 27 degress Celsius and I am sweating like a 3 headed dog playing catch with satan



    another statement : it's january ! no classes here . at 3:00 PM I will be watching grand meister jobs speaking through the webcast.. but I will have to wait at least 1 month to buy any new macs !!



    could any of you ship me a brand new dual g5 1.6 ?



    and now, something completely different :



    the US postal service says : "We cannot ship the new powermac G5"

    (remember vuescan)

    No, the iBook and Airport were around when the dual machines were announced... Thats why they have airport slots.

    doesn't anyone find it odd that there is not a scrap of *real* evidence for any of the announcements tomorrow?



    over the past few years there has always been a crappy picture to pour over. remember the pic of the quicksilver g4 that macosx.org had?

    Off topic:



    Come and visit me in Norway

    I was borned in the northern most city in the world. Hammerfest. The climate is not too bad actually (costal climate). Only snow for about 7 months/year.

    And check out this: fake, for sure, but looks quite photo-like. Perhaps edited with iPhoto?

    Lets try something new: What are Apple doing of "extras" around the world? What have Apple France, Apple Sweden, Apple Germany aso done extra for this show that they haven´t done before or which remarks have the local Apple representatives said or done that is special?



    We just read the statement from Apple Norway. Apple Denmark has invited the general public to see the keynote at two locations (for the first time ever? Heklp me here JLL). Normally its only press, resellers aso.

    I see makes sence now...



    That is one big power button!



    Oh and whoever did the mathamatical prediction of 34 pages, you probably will be wrong. The PPM (posts per minute) have been increasing so it is non-linear so you cant take the average like you did.

    Plus, this thread has become a chat room of sorts since java chat is gone .

    blabla, I sure would ! . but it's a long long way... and I hate to leave home...hhehehhe



    the heat can be controled with the smart use of tactical air cooling devices



    another thought : who remembers transmeta's code morphing tecnology ?



    couldn't apple use transmeta chips or transmeta technology to use the very high clockspeeds of x86 processors , but running native ppc code ?



    I heard that x86 chips have a translating engine to translate x86 very old instruction set to a native instruction set...



    there were rumors transmeta was going to be aquired ....



    it all adds up..

    Well Transmeta's chips haven't been clocking as high as Motorola, so that seems like a dead end as far as current technology is concerned. They have brains though, and like Raycer, perhaps Apple would buy them for future development.



    What is the chance that Apple has a clockless chip? What would the performance benefits be for a chip like that?

    Just want to repsot this because the page changed so quickly it got caught on last page:

    Hmm.....the snow continues to fall here in C-Town. Yesterday it looked like there was barely any snow outside, grass starting to show up in my yard and the bball court (aka driveway) was clear. Now, everything's covered in white. Nah, our school never closes. Don't be so silly.

    There was a report recently about the press notification from Apple Netherlands, no? or was that for the iPod?



    here's the link to CNN:



    <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2001/TECH/ptech/12/19/apple.revolutionary.idg/"; target="_blank">http://www.cnn.com/2001/TECH/ptech/12/19/apple.revolutionary.idg/</a>;



    No info about any events they are holding in the Netherlands for the occasion though.
