  • Quote: Originally posted by kim kap sol I know this is probably a joke...but the 360 is a Xenon processor...not a G5. And the PS3 will be a Cell. These chips are architecturally very different from the G5. The only thing that is common between…

  • a 2006 Chevy Equinox LT AWD. I get 19/24. Which is right on to its fuel economy estimates(18/23). Cost me $22 to fill with 1/4 left.

  • First of all, the dealers are independent of the manufacture. Second, I would call GM itself. I believe is as long as you order the car and put a deposit on it, you should get the red tag pricing. I think the dealer is just BS'ing you just to get mo…

    in What's the car of your dreams? Comment by quagmire July 2005
  • I am just going to say it. Just so it is said. There isn't much Apple could intro Mac wise at paris besides bumps. I mean what could these, " Great PowerPC products" be? A simple PPC 7448 and a 970MP? Sure the 970MP is a cool CPU, but not show worth…

    in Apple hardware sector slows as several Macs await refreshes Comment by quagmire April 2005
  • Ok, according toa person at Macrumors he says the 9650 is simply the 9700M and ATi marketed it as the 9700 instead of the 9650. Maybe ATi did the same thing with the 9700 that went in the 1.42 Ghz Powermac G4's. Also, the Opteron line is a server ch…
