16GB is fine for some people but not for others. This is exactly why there are various models with different sizes and features. Even if 16GB was really enough for everyone as some suggest, there will always be people who will think they need more a…

Quote: Originally posted by THT Not quite. There were many x86 CPU vendors in the past, many x86 CPU vendors now, and there will be x86 vendors in the future. If Intel has never managed its roadmap well or has never significantly outperformed the…

Quote: Originally posted by THT Yeah sure undoubtedly. I'm sure they switched for multiple reasons. But it was the correct decision, and Intel will be producing some tremendously low power processors by 2007 and some huge processors in 2008. By 2…

So it would seem most likely in Apple laptops we'll be seeing single core parts or "L"/"U" part dual cores with the possibility of "T" parts on the high end. These clock speeds aren't really much better than what we're seeing with the G4s but the fa…

Quote: Originally posted by cwestpha It is important to note that PCI-express was never ment to be used in a laptop. As such if you put in this graphics card it will have to drop down to 1x lane (from 4x or 8x) and still it will drain faster then…

Quote: Originally posted by Gon The volume and brightness controls get so little use, I think it automatically makes sense to switch the buttons to be F1-F12 as default. The F12 is a dedicated key really - nothing else in OS X maps to it by defau…

Quote: Originally posted by Gon Huh? Well on my 12" iBook, dashboard maps to F12. In order to use that, I have to hold "Fn" and hit the eject key that doubles as F12 which is a pain. Yeah, I can remap it, and I have, but having a dedicated key…

I am planning to buy a new Powerbook when the first Intel based ones come out. This is what I'm hoping for and I think this is mostly realistic (Well maybe not the video hardware) * A fast Pentium-M (or it's sucessor) with a bus to match. * A…

Hmmmm, if iPod photos are in such great supply they should send some over here to New Zealand. I told the local Apple store I'd buy one when they came in. Still waiting and being told to expect 3-4 week delays. Edit: Might be worth mentioning it'…

I'd have thought the mouse driver would already be setup to do that since I'm using the right button but I'll experiment a bit when I get home and see what I find. Thanks for the info.
