For all I care Jobs can announce Apple is turning to Mr. Coffee for the next line of CPUs. It doesn't matter a whit to me so long as he announces a new laptop Monday morning.

I flatly don't believe the cnet article is accurate. Some aspect of it might be. There might be talks between Apple and Intel but there is no way in hell Apple is going to start putting an X86-like chip in their hardware. It will mean the end of …

If they were to phase intel chips into the mac line starting at one end (the bottom apparently) and moving to the other, wouldn't that mean they would have to immediately offer an OS X for intel AND an OS X for mac and continue to develop these to O…

I just want a sandwich bar. I love sandwiches and I'm always having a hard time coming up with one in short order. It seems to me there's plenty of usable counter space on the 17". I would settle for a salad bar, but it would be a reluctant compr…

Quote: Originally posted by DHagan4755 You guys keep forgetting that Apple revealed PowerBook G5s in that plist file in 10.3.5. Remember PowerBook 7,1 and PowerBook 7,2? Yeah, but we also keep remembering.

What makes anyone so sure that PBs will be updated at an affair like WWDC?

Anybody: 1) Is the MPC8641D by Freescalle completed and ready for production? and 2) Would it for all intents and purposes make for a Dual G4 PB?

When is Paris?

Quote: Originally posted by emig647 I've been saying this the last year. That I'd rather have a dual g4 than a single g5. The e600MP may be done before the lowpowered g5... This is the only thing I'm waiting on... if it doesn't happen by WWDC, th…

Thanks for the chart Rhumgod. I think what it shows is that there is no pattern. It suggests only that one can reasonably expect some update (minor or major) every 6-9 months. What will irk me if Apple doesn't produce a new PB closer to the 6 m…
