  • Yeah I supppose it doesn't make any sense for Apple to switch to x86 now. If they were to do such a move it would be better for them to wait until everything moves over to 64-bit on the PC side, since both AMD and Intel are going to be transitionin…
    in Who is a real OS X's supporter? Comment by quarem November 2002
  • I would stil buy the Mac. In some ways I think might even be better since there would be lots of cheap hardware (Sound cards, video cards, etc), because the developers would only have to write a driver to get OS X compatibility. In fact I would …
    in Who is a real OS X's supporter? Comment by quarem November 2002
  • I don't have much to add besides some comments on the system bus. The current system bus in the new PowerMac's is not really all that lame, well the 167MHz one at least. In some tasks I think that the 167 MHz bus would be preferable to a 2100 …

  • [quote]Originally posted by jchen: I'm having a LAN party with some friends in my garage, there's going to be about 15 of us total. Two of the people will be using my spare two macs (a G4 tower and Powerbook G4). I was wondering whether any of yo…

  • [quote]Originally posted by Calvin: I found something interesting a few days ago too. Surfing this site from a friend's place on a PC (Windows XP) with his 56k modem was pretty much equal to my browsing at home on my G4 iMac with DSL. (well, unless…

  • M3D Jack thanks for your awesome posts, that is a really great explanation for why FPS is important in 3D games. I have always explained why we need high FPS in 3D games by looking at angular velocity. In Quake 3 and other FPS shooters you tend…

  • [quote]Originally posted by alcimedes: and what percentage of the computers sold do you think are used for these purposes? 3%, 4%, maybe 6%? so you've got at least 94% of the world who's buying stuff they will never even come close to tappi…

  • Is there a way to let Apple's X11 know that you are using DVORAK instead of continueing to map your keyboard like it was a QWERTY?
    in How many of us use dvorak? Comment by quarem February 2003
  • I have made the switch to DVORAK. I started using it at the beginning of January, and although I am not fully back to my old speed of 80 WPM, but I am getting better every day. I really like the DVORAK layout and evepytime I use a QWERTY keyboar…

    in *I made Apple's ads better. (Added a new one)* Comment by quarem February 2002
  • They mention it is a PC, of course assuming that each of the hints has been directed towards a product, which means that it is a PC and not some digital device, right? Unless they managed to do something like the iPad where it is a full Mac running…
    in To go where no PC has gone before! Comment by quarem January 2002
  • I really do not have an answer for you and have found it frustrating that MOSR has days if not weeks between posts. They seem to be in a constant cycle of reevaluating and promising more updates. If you remember when Apple realized the G4 ther…

  • I don't think it would be a bad idea for Apple to have their own in house Mac only game development team, Bungie would have been an excellent pick. But applenut is right, not many Mac users play games and the ones that do tend to pirate a lot of th…
    in Game developers left out of iEmphasis Comment by quarem January 2003
  • I managed to sync last night at midnight, so the very first couple minutes of January 7th. It was quick and easy. And it has been working since. I would imagine that some of the problems caused today are from how many people are trying to sync fo…
    in can we iSync our address book to .mac yet?? Comment by quarem January 2003
  • Intelligent enough? Cut me some slack, I wasn't trying to be mean to you. What are these "fake" demos anyhow? How do they work? What would NeXT do?
    in Rendezvous iTunes Comment by quarem November 2002
