It will be called 10.5, cost $99 and come out in March.

I doubt it will be called 10.2 I bet Apple will call it 10.5 and sell it as a $99 upgrade.

Well, for $1300, you can get yourself a brand new 700MHz G4 iMac w/ a 15" digital LCD... That's always an option to consider. BTW, I've heard that you can find 733MHz QuickSilvers for $999 in education. I wouldn't be suprised after the new Pow…

I would not consider any G4 tower machine under 466Mhz. Yes, the 466Mhz comes with 4X AGP and the new motherboard w/write combining. This is significantly faster than a 400Mhz G4. Wait until the next PowerMac announcement from Apple and watch the…

Instead of asking silly questions, why not just watch the QuickTime stream?

Or you can get VueScan from

Apparently, the GeForce 2MX and Radeon level graphics cards are not sufficient. In Carmack's own words, these systems will have to run at resolutions 320x240 or less to obtain acceptable performance. All iMacs, eMacs, PowerBooks, iBook and all P…

OpenGL is optimized for G4's and G4's have a better FPU. This leads to about 30% better performance on G4's under OS X.

IE5.1 seems to be faster.

Anyway to import my 1100 bookmarks from IE?

It's true that VPC under OS X is significantly slower for certain tasks. CineBench2000 scores under VPC running XP in OS X are as much as 50% lower compared to OS 9. Integer performance in OS X under VPC is almost on par with OS 9. Emulated PC d…

I hope you all are arrested. [ 03-31-2002: Message edited by: Nostradamus ]

[quote]Originally posted by Fobie: With what application do you get those results? Hmm, I have a feeling that it only works with G4 based systems. No, it will work with G3's. Infact, it will function on any PPC.

Running Skidmarks GT under OS X on a G4 450MHz. [code] Skidmarks GT - Processor Performance Benchmark (c) 2002 Apple Computer, Inc. Note: Power Mac G4/400 (PCI Graphics) = 1000 for all tests. Gathering system information... Starting performa…

It's quite interesting that they would base a G4/400 PCI as the base system. It is indicative that these Carbon benchmark suits have been under Apple's internal labs for quite some time. Anyone try them under OS 9 instead of OS X and see what sor…

Before: Your raw speed was 2919957.14 bits per second (2.9 Mbits). After: Your raw speed was 3439389.31 bits per second (3.4 Mbits). I found it results to be consistantly at least 300 megabits faster using the modifications under IE. [ 02…

There are several methods. 1. All iMacs have 10/100 ethernet built-in since. If you have a crossover cable, you can network the two iMacs. This is probably the easiest way if your old iMac does not have FireWire. 2. iMacs with FireWire allow F…

Looks like Apple is trying to clear excess eMac inventory, presumably due to slow sales in education. iMac sales are also below expectations. I wouldn't expect a 17" LCD due to prohibitive costs. [ 06-04-2002: Message edited by: Nostradamus ]
