  • [quote]Originally posted by catalyst: OS X Java definitely outperforms OS 9's, and I am *quite* certain that the Windows implementation of Java isn't as good as Mac OS X's. Also, I guess Mac OS X's Java VM is almost like the other *nix's, and …

    in The G5 and what it means for future Macs Comment by dtoh March 2002
  • Actually, I'd like to see it on a log-scale on the vertical axis. No, I'm not kidding. -D/H
    in The G4. Comment by dtoh March 2002
  • The only way I can justify that bump is a smaller fabbing process. IIRC, the Apollo is kinda 2 parts, one of which we've seen (the SOI), and the other is the smaller size (0.15 microns). Of course, I could be full of crap too.....
    in MC7455 == "Apollo" Comment by dtoh January 2002
  • Moki, I mentioned this in another thread, but I'm also guessing MWNY for, lack of a better term, 'real Apollo' (read DDR, etc etc). Do you think the fab will go to 0.15 microns? How does 1.4-1.8 GHz at MWNY sound (with a bump at say WWDC in b…
    in MC7455 == "Apollo" Comment by dtoh January 2002
  • Personally, I'm with the no g5 till MWSF next year since althought the new chips are 'apollo' given that SOI was involved, they're not 'apollo' given the fab size (0.18 vs 0.15 microns). Once (better said, if) Mot moves to 0.15 fabbing, the G4 ca…
    in The AI "Braintrust": Speculation of what is to come. Join in with your knowledge. Comment by dtoh January 2002
  • I'm with the apollo crowd in terms of PB bumps, since it seems to be geared towards less heat anyway via the SOI. Mostly, I'd really like to see the upgraded pixel density. I bought the 667 (slower drive version), and appreciated the 133 bus bum…
    in New PowerBooks? Maybe? Comment by dtoh January 2002
  • Upgrade to graphics card seems to be a given (look at the high-end lap top competition). Dual proccessors seems unlikely to me based off of heat/battery concerns. I expect large advanges in battery lifetimes (which I guess nullifies half my 'n…
    in Concerning future PowerBooks Comment by dtoh January 2002
  • I kinda like the G5/64 bit OS idea Nostradamus is proposing, since This will have to change not only in the shipping OS, but more importantly to the suite of developer tools. Now if we can get auto-vectorizing compilers and a faster JVM to go wit…
