Although I think that Apple may buy the integrated chipset and CPU from Intel to put in their lowest end products (for monetary reasons), we should not forget that actually, Apple will now have the option to use the integrated chipsets from ATI or N…

Quote: Originally posted by BeigeUser Since the CPU deal probably has been made way before that prototype was made, I imagine that mini-lookalike was Intel bidding for Apples motherboard business. That's pretty much what I thought as well : I…

Anyone knows if those chips have any form of hyper/multithreading in them?

While this is a phenomenal change, I think Apple is still edging its bets by not making all their computers with Intel processors from the beginning. What has kept Apple from extinction has been their loyal fan(atic)s customers. If "switchers" don…

Have a look here if you want to know how different graphics chips perform.

It looks like Intel is about to release some competition. Maybe that could accelerate the sought-after updating of the Mac mini?

The only "hackers" who have any good experience with this sort of thing are the Xpostfacto guys, and I don't think they're into pissing Apple off. However, I still wonder how much work it would be to actually be able to run OS X on Xbox. We know t…

We all know that those boxes are sold at a loss, and that the money is in the software (games). What Apple should really do is get a programming license from Microsoft and make a special lite "Home entertainment" version of OS X, running iTunes and…

Actually, if you care about OpenOffice.org, then you should take a look at NeoOffice/J. To make a long story short, OpenOffice.org and Sun are not working on a OS X native version, so 2 programmers decided to do it themselves. You could call it th…

Quote: Originally posted by PB No, it is a typo. No way to introduce at the same time Powerbooks AND iBooks with G5s inside. Maybe you need to understand it another way : iBook G5 is really the 12" Powerbook G5 (12" Powerbooks G4 are produced…

I do agree that having a proper Mac keyboard is a necessity, given the position of the command keys. However, I was thinking that maybe Apple's strategy is to try to upsell the bluetooth keyboard and mouse...

Quote: Originally posted by Spytap This may be a silly question, but with this update, what chip will be used, and does it fix or lessen the FSB issue with current PBooks? That is exactly what I was wondering. I thought I read somewhere that…

If financial analysts are picking on this rumour, then Apple will either have to deny it or to release the thing. They won't be able to stay quiet as it might affect their share price...
