Longhorn is a few years away. i have read that it will be introduced with the new UI first (basically XP with an OsX type GUI). all the other aspects such as the new file system will come later, do to it taking longer than expected to complete. but …

another thing great about Mac is the speed of software installations. i just installed the driver for a new epson printer and hooked it up to our PC. after a 5 minute wait for XP to recognize there was an install CD in the D drive. it never did inst…

where did MOSR get the info about this '975' chip anyway?... i have been following their rumor pattern and for the most part this mysterious 975 chip is only spoken about by them. they are even claiming shipping times... not sure what's up.

this is all pretty interesting stuff. but it has to be realized that the problems faced by the new PPC 970 90nm design were discovered possibly as early as late december 2003. this being said, IBM has had little comment on the situation other than t…
