I think the rev c Pmac G5 will be dual core. As long as IBM doesn't run into trouble with antares(which they shouldn't since they have exprience with dual core CPU's). IBM should have them shipping in January. Oh look just in time for the Pmac to be upgraded. I am sure the next Pmac rev will not be silent since apple will want to show off the first dual core processor to the consumer/pro in an event.
Here are two things I've learned over the years. #1 Don't get your hopes up. If you think something should be, and is going to be released at a particular show your setting your self up for a huge let down.
I would be too surprised if the next Power Mac update brings dual core processors. What would we get, a quad processor Mac, if the dual processor design is retained? Too expensive (or too much) to be true for the beginning of next year.
even though you don't even have to work to find out
just join ACM SIGARCH
im sure you will learn a lot
Amazing what crops up when you are driving cross country.
Hmmm, I'm a member and don't know what you are referencing at all. Nothing of note comes up in the Portal either. Your fingers are currently caught in the cookie jar.
Sounding like a ego wounded sixteen year old that has read a few technical articles and decided to stir the pot a bit. Your utter predictional failure last time around (which was noted on the first page) doesn't seem to have convinced many that you don't really know anything of use here, especially when you are constantly cut off technically by others that have shown technical expertise in the past.
I await your summary all cap single sentence version of "he's wrong!"
I would be surprised if IBM releases it in 1H 2005. I expect there will be a speed bump during then though.

of course information specific to the 970fx is only available in IBM. the thing i had last time wasn't a prediction, it was inside information. Turns out that the plans were changed. i was never technically wrong in any of these threads and the peole who argued with me were wrong. as you fail to see that, your probably just a 5 year old who pays forty bucks a month to get access to the ACM portal and also fail to take note of anything interesting in there. if you are in SIGARCH and haven't noticed the shift towards power consumption as a priority, the forty bucks you pay are probably not worth it. you should go home, sit down on the toilet and try to pipe as much shit out of your ass as you can. until then, don't add meaningless messages to a dicscussion

So you admit that you were wrong? Also, personal attacks are not welcome here.
a) You haven't any information that has been substantiated by the very sources you've suggested.
b) You've tried to hide behind 'well clear communication isn't needed anyway because I'm an engineer' (Sorry, not enough typos in there, I know, but bear with me.)
c) Your arguments have been... um... nonexistent.
d) You resort to personal attacks when called on a-c.
If you do work at IBM, how much is Apple paying IBM for 970s and 970fx's?
Most people who work at IBM do not have access to that kind of financial information. Not only that, but someone who is 19/20 years old and working at IBM is probably a co-op/intern at best. The chance that he/she would have any sort of inside knowledge is slim, and is probably limited to whatever was overheard at meetings. Regardless, that still could be "inside information", but chances are it's pretty volatile.

Hmmm. sounds like you admitted you were wrong. But, then you took the easy way out and say plans changed. How has the plan changed on the 970fx? Hmmm, you have no proof. How do plans change anyway? Oh, have they changed their mind and said we can make the core go faster? I think they were already planning that. Then you say," I was never technically wrong in any of these threads and the people who argued with me were wrong." Yep, thats sounds like the cowards way out of being wrong. Hey, I should know. I did once. But, I fixed myself and just in time because I learned I was about to get temp. banned. You better do the same.
PS: Don't let you confuse this as a personal attack. I am not insulting you. But, I am insulting your false info and the way you ran away from it.
You really like to do everything you can to derail discussion, don't you?
I also don't buy the "stuck at exactly 2.5 GHz" prediction. Its not impossible, but I'd be suprised if IBM has hit the wall quite that hard. They do have some more advanced process options which should make a bit of a difference.

im referring to the powerbook g5 thing. the thing i had last time is not the thing i had this time. the 970fx thing is true.

Communication doesn't. Trolling, on the other hand, is all about stirring response. *cough*
Powerbook G5 and 'Tiger'?
Antares Dual Core PowerMac running at 2.5/3 gig?
A credit card 'memory card' style iPod?
A new iBook?
Hmmm...

Yes, but those that can do and those that can't, teach. Plus teacher's pay sucks.
