1. The new PowerMacs will use G4's and shall not be likely exceed 1.133GHz. I think that faster speeds are possible. 1.2 GHz or even 1.267 GHz would be my guess for top speed. 2. They will be priced competitively against the new iMacs and sha…

The real test is the weight of the base compared to the weight of the LCD. Someone should do a test, when they get their new iMac. Put the monitor in it lowest position, with the maximum outward tilt. That would be the most precarious positio…

I'd rather see a 1280x960 (4:3) than 1280x1024 (5:4). I'm not a big fan of the big square monitor. It just looks weird. SdC

[quote]It won't change the coding that much at all. The G5 is still a PPC and being a PPC chip just doesn't mean it share the same name they share a common architecture. Every processor still has it's instruction set and that's what the Programmers …

[quote]Originally posted by stimuli: So, like, they'll just write a compiler, and hope it works on the G5? or maybe they'll close their eyes, and imagine what it would do on a 64 bit, non-existant chip? Dude, face it, g5 is on it's way. Don't…

Software doesn't write itself overnight. Better to be prepared for the G5's eventual release than not. By getting the necessary backgroud info, you can prepare code to be ready for a currently non-existant chip. No one is doubting that Moto is …

If you wait forever, you can acheive that perfect state of perpetual desire, never tainted by actually owning anyting.....never to suffer buyer's remorse, or technology obsolescence, or a thousand other afflictions of actual possession and ownership…

I expect price drops, based on the gumdrops history. After the first wave of early adopters, the price will seem high to the fence sitters, so any savings in components will drop the price. SdC

Wow....$999..... Wouldn't be nice if Apple decided to price the Powerma---[poster grabbed by Apple accountants, dragged off and beaten] SdC

Gee, any poweruser/design user/graphics professional conventions coming up two days after 2/17? Let me think...... SdC

Sounds good. Didn't they do that with the G3, annouuncing with the new Powermac so they could say they were first with the G3? SdC

The easiest, cheapest thing to do would be to get the license to AltiVec, do the design work in-house, and contract fab to IBM. That way, Apple can stop begging Motorola to make bigger chips, when Motorola makes it's money by selling embedded dev…

what mmicist said. You can use the design advantages to rachet up speed, not just ratchet down power and heat. SdC

[quote]Originally posted by SpiffyGuyC: You would, becuase you're probably a Pro user. The iMac doesn't have a 17" for several reasons. One is to separate it from the PowerMac, which Apple *really* needs for the moment. With the new PowerMac…

[quote]Originally posted by ASexySexyMan: The only thing I would improve it with would be a slightly bigger monitor (maybe even widescreen...how cool would that be?)......Seems like they might do the same thing they did with the iBook, and release …

I think Apple basically stuck a fork in the G3 with iMac G4. Now the G4 has demonstrated that it can be used in portables and in consumer oriented machines, its only a matter of time before the G4 ends up in the portable, consumer machine itself:…
