  • I don't understand all the whining about the integrated graphics. This is not a high powered machine - the intigrated graphics will be more than enough for core graphics functionality (something that can't be said for the 9200 in the G4 Mac Mini). …

  • Quote: Aperture will only work with an iSight iMac G5. The older ones had a crappy 5200fx that can't handle it. Actually, the iMac G5 before the iMac G5 iSight had, iirc, an ati 9600, which is supported by aperture.

  • Quote: Always the same story...Pages was released too early, iWeb too early, FCP too early. IIRC, Apple's software development strategy (inherited from NEXT) is "release early and often." The idea, I think, is that if you get software out there,…

  • Sound Menu puts an item on your menu bar which allows you to switch between audio devices. It's free and it's a universal binary too (just for the record). http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/18091

  • Maybe you understand this, but from your post it is not clear. Merom is a dual core chip as well.

  • "Users of Apple's new iMac Core Duo and MacBook Pro will have the capability to browse and connect to third party access points using 802.11a (as well as 802.11b and 802.11g). However, Apple has told its partners that it will not be providing any fu…
    in Intel Macs add support for 802.11a WiFi standard Comment by rminkler January 2006
  • When mactels come out, it is likely that they will use EFI firmware. Windows XP cannot boot from EFI, but windows XP 64bit edition can. The Yonah processor is not 64bit, so my guess is that we will have to wait for either Merom (or Conroe) in a mac,…

  • What is it about ogg that you don't like? Is it only that itunes doesn't play ogg? Because if that's the case you can only blame apple... I've always heard that ogg is a great format, and would be a pleasure to use if the industry would only accept …
