  • what I think is : Get rid of this crappy 15" LCD screen with only a GF2MX card ! Also there is too many configurations if you count the eMac. So, it will be a good thing that Apple do a lot of promotions to eliminate all the stocks of 15" iMac for …
  • I found this article VERY interesting.
  • Go see there !!!!
  • I'm not sure anymore but the bus multiplier are this, no ? 133,33 x 6,5 = 866,64 = 867 MHz 133,33 x 7,5 = 999,97 = 1 GHz 166,66 x 6,0 = 999,96 = 1 GHz 166,66 x 7,5 = 1249,95 = 1.25 GHz (MacMinute) 133,33 x 9,0 = 1199,97 = 1.2 GHz (Think Secre…
  • [quote]Originally posted by foamy: there is a distinct possibility that the FSB may remain at 133. There is something wrong with that. Why the OLD 1 Gig goes to $2199 and the NEW 1 Gig goes to $2499 at the end of the month... strange if it's the…
  • I think the iMac One Gig will be the same implementation than the current Dual Gig : SDR RAM, maybe 133 Mhz Bus, maybe L3 cache...
  • [quote]Originally posted by gfeier: You newbies don't know from loud Macs! My dual 800 Quicksilver is a good 20db quieter than my Mac II was in 1988. It sounded more like something from Hoover than Apple. You know that my Classic and my Col…
  • I don't think that many people have Quicksilver here. They are really noisy, so if Apple can make them silent, it will be a good thing.
  • so in the meantime, can Mot and Apple release this in august ? G4+ : around 1.5 Ghz, 13 microns, 166 FSB (333), more FPU, maybe AGP 8X Is this will be competitive with PIV and AMD ? This will be 100% improvement from the current Dual Gig, no ? and…
  • Mach kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 6.0: Sat Jul 13 00:40:35 PDT 2002; root:xnu/xnu-333.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Kernel configured for up to 2 processors. 2 processors are physically available. Processor type: ppc7450 (PowerPC 7450) Process…
  • about prices... If I buy an iMac 17 -> $1999 If I buy a PowerMac 800 with the same configuration -> $2957 minus the Screen Saver Promo ($450 -> $2507 I think the iMac is a better buy
  • Out of the blue but if Apple goes Intel, is it really difficult to leave carbon/os9 dead and create a carbon/windows environment ? This way developer have nothing to do (if this layer is completely transparent with no recompile) and in one day all …
  • You know like a lot of us I would love to see an Apple Tablet. BUT the way viggen put it is completely wrong. The technologies are finally here like someone said: Ink, Airport, Better Battery, Smaller Hard Drive, Bluetooth, RendezVous, iChat, etc. …

  • call me Naive 2.0 but i like this spec a lot ! i'm buying them

  • personally I love the idea of the 'glow-logo' like the Ti & Ice. That's really nice. Put it on all Mac !
  • maybe I'm stupid but is it really difficult to have a dedicated bus for each processor (with the current G4) ? That means in this way each processor can use a full 1 GB/S of bandwidth and still with a FSB of 133 Mhz... It will be an improvement, no?
  • From Motorola 'The Programming Environments Manual': The PowerPC architecture is a 64-bit architecture with a 32-bit subset. This manual describes the architecture from a 32-bit perspective. Although some 64-bit resources are discussed, this manua…
  • yes sorry you're right but that's the name of it that do me wrong... e500 core... some pics to clear some minds: [ 06-17-2002: Message edited by: jeromba ]
