  • [quote]Originally posted by Lemon Bon Bon: The two chips aren't competitive with one x86 is what. We've been here before. Nothing new. Yes, a single northwood P4 is probably faster than two 1.25GHz G4s. Incidentally, it also happens to be…
    in all Tower Duals reveal a desperate move Comment by razzfazz August 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Lemon Bon Bon: Duals are nice. But the pretense that Apple is offering them under anything other than the fact that they and therefore Moto' can't deliver anything better cpu wise is transparent. Excuse my language…

  • [quote]Originally posted by Badtz: thanks for hte link... was still wondering about a couple things what "ns/nanosecond" does the cube support? (and the other G4's?) What does it mean by "apple firmware"? firmware for what? The…

  • [quote]Originally posted by rogue27: I actually thought the specifications of ADC were open and anybody was allowed to use it for free? I know at least one third party manufacturer has released an ADC monitor. Yes, upon introduction, they said…
    in Video Card to take advantage of Quatz Extreme Comment by razzfazz May 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Programmer: AGP cards will not work in PCI slots. 4x cards will work in 2x slots, but the forthcoming 8x cards will only work in 8x and 4x slots. Hm, I'm not sure, at least from the AGP specs, it seems like it sh…
    in Graphics Cards: Where and What: Comment by razzfazz May 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Graeme D Warren: Sounds like a cool idea to me. It is kind of like the big Mercedes V12 engines in the S-Class etc. They can turn off half the engine if you are going slowly,and you don't even notice the difference. It…

    in Partitions, is this a good strategy ? Comment by razzfazz February 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Scott H.: Yea but it's not from Apple. Apple's goal is to sell a card+station = $400 rather than 2 cards+software = $200. Well, the functionality is from Apple, all that's needed is already included with OS X. Al…

  • Uh, guys, did any of you actually read what gordy linked to? [quote]Originally posted by gordy: There are instructions for setting up a Software Base Station on OS X at VersionTracker.com. EDIT:

  • [quote]Originally posted by ZO: Ethernet: Autonegotiating/sensing works like a charm. Hooked up with normal Cat5 cable (not crossover) to a Cube and transferred files to my heart's delight. Are you sure this is actually a feature of the iBoo…

  • [quote]Originally posted by Eugene: Also, is there any way to read the temperature of the MPC745x/744x CPUs? I seem to remember Motorola designating the broken temp sensor an erratum they wouldn't fix... Yes, error no. 25 in the PPC7455 series …
    in QuickSilver 2002 owners... problems? Comment by razzfazz February 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by DerekUNCW: I wonder why it would do 194 under OS 9 and 155 under OS X. Of course I haven't upgraded to 10.1 yet so that may be it. Well, I read somewhere that the current scheduler in Mac OS X is not ideally suit…
    in 7.6 GigaFLOPS - How about you? Comment by razzfazz January 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Amorph: Also, the 7455 and 7445 have significantly improved caches, which apparently do quite well in getting around the bottleneck created by the front side bus. Hm, the only improvement to the cache system mention…
    in Dual GHz G4.... WOW Comment by razzfazz January 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by Bodhi: Apple says on the new G4's the cache runs at up to 500MHz so it's either running at 1/2 processor speed which in the fastest chip would be 500MHz or is running at 250MHz but since it is DDR they are marketing it a…

    in I got my new DUAL 1.0ghz!! Comment by razzfazz January 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by KidRed: I got the dual 1.0ghz, would I be better served getting the GeForce 4 when it comes out? Or possibly the 8500? I mainly do photoshop stuff. Is this a serious question? If so, for 2D work (which includes, amon…

  • [quote]Originally posted by applenut: what "standard" PC are you paying 3000 dollars for? The point is, as far as I know 64-bit-PCI doesn't even exist on most "high-end" PCs. The only chipsets I know of that support it at all in the x86 world …
