  • Quote: Originally posted by BRussell The heat could be due to components other than the CPU itself, such as the front-side bus. yeah, that's been mentioned before, and I don't mean to shoot you down so quick, but I really don't see that being…
  • Quote: Originally posted by discstickers I would say that being seriously interested in Tiger's 64 bit features and owning a G3 (or even G4) are mutually exclusive. And I believe that the "bloat" in tiger will be handled, in large part, by the GP…
  • Quote: Originally posted by wizard69 [snip] The other issues revolve around known heat issues with the 970FX. Yes it is an improvement over the 970 but that really isn't saying much. [/snip] I'm confused...don't high-clocked P4's dissip…
  • Quote: Originally posted by eaxit I will have to agree with you on this one. I don't think this is an arena that Apple is going to get into at this point. Maybe when bandwidth limits reach 5-7mb/s, then, and only then would it be an option. I…

  • Quote: Originally posted by applenut dont think so. Macworld Boston is going to be an embarrassment. No chance you are even going to hear Apple mention it, nevermind surprise attend [sarcasm] thank you for taking my post seriously and reply…
  • I just had an epiphany that should set everyone's hearts at ease... Steve is going to keynote MW Boston on July 12/13 and announce the new headless, G5 iMacthing. Ta-dah! TS is right, we're still happy, and the DNC will have it's thunder st…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha And Amorph is dead on, as usual: Win95, 98, ME, etc didn't exactly have a memory model that was compatible with OS9, so they had to port the OS9 memory management system over lock stock and barrel. Now, with…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Escher Would be nice. Unlike that other premature liberation. Everyone: Remember that the Apple store normally goes down for a first time a few days before the actual update, presumably for behind the scenes prep …

  • Quote: Originally posted by quagmire Just want to add, if apple was really going to shut down the computer side to concentrate on digital indrustry, then why he made 2 divisions? Now we can have 2 groups concentrated on 1 thing. The 1st group can…
  • Quote: Originally posted by SeanL Isn't it possible that it isn't a 'rule' that iMacs are even #s...just that it has fallen that way because of release and update cycles? no, not based on history. check it out over at the apple museum you …
