933 MHz G4 in AppleX Panther screenshots

Yes, the panther screenshots are pretty neat, bu not much change form Jaguar. But one interesting bit of info is that in the 2nd screenshot, in the "about" box, there is a 933 MHz G4 listed. Maybe I am wrong, but there is no 933 G4 in any Apple product at the moment. Maybe this speed will be in the next eMac rev.



See the shot HERE.

    One of the Quick Silvers is 933mhz I believe. This has been posted already too.

    Dunno. I guess that it just doesn't matter.

    NO. The base Quicksilver (or current G4) is 1Ghz, i think



    Mabey the 12 powerbok.

    What's the point?



    Just because they are showing an unreleased version of Mac OS X (which they're not) doesn't mean that it's installed on an unreleased Mac.

    Safari features a "stop" button with an "X" in it. Maybe the next PowerMac design will feature a huge "X" on one side.



    We don't know if those shots are real (I doubt it). But what I do know is that there was a PowerMac G4 with 933 MHz some time ago.

    Placebo, simply because there are no 933MHz Power Mac machines on the market right now (thank goodness) doesn't mean the OS can't be run on a previous generation G4. As others have pointed out, there was at one time a G4 933. When Panther comes out, I'm going to be running it on my iBook 466, but that doesn't mean iBook 466s are still in production, does it? In any case, many (including me) believe the screen shot to be fake. It doesn't show any improved features, and the supposed piles demonstration is really quite lame - it looks like someone threw three identical icons together and slapped it on a folder. That can't be the new great feature, rest assured.

    One of the early Quicksilver towers had a 933 Mhz G4 chip.

    Lock the thread or move it to the OS X forum, this has absolutely no relation to future hardware.

    Well there were only two QuickSilver revisions... the 733/867/dual 800 and the 800/933/dual 1000 so obviously it was the later one

    Guess it only figures that someone, not thinking, would figure that would indicate some kind of new Mac.



    The supposed photos, came from a third party not necessarily directly from Apple. If real, then someone who had access to a "development beta" version of Panther maybe, but it could be run on any kind of a recent Mac, including the very slightly older 933mhz Quicksilver. Who ever took the screen shots, "if real", probably only had brief access to one of the development machines.



    Consider them most likely busted and looking for work, or at least forever banned from third party development work.

    so ya, while everyone here debates where the 933 g4 was used, im going to make the obvious question:



    Does that "pile" look crappy or what?
