Quote: If you just looked, you can see that Intel has a dual core Pentium XE that is competitive with the Athlon X2. Intel plans on having dual core Netburst chips throughout 2006 at higher clock rates. They've be competitive. They won't outclass…

Quote: Originally posted by anand Yes, that is what I am asking. All the Tibooks we have looks like they were sent to a war zone. Terrible. I just have to convince my boss that it was just bad luck and the new ones are better. The powerbook i…

Quote: Originally posted by onlooker Yeah, that is like a 3 year old quote. New Dual core Xeons would kill the G5. Perhaps, but IBM now has dual core G5's. Once those make it into the PM (Paris?), I think the G5 will end up back on top. W…

I'm waiting for a 64-bit PowerBook be it a G5 or Intel. If Apple uses a 32-bit Yonah from Intel, I will be extremely dissapointed. Most importantly Apple needs to ditch flourescent backlighting in all of it's LCD displays be it notebooks or desk…

Wow it takes 2 Sossamans to beat a single Athlon X2 4800+ chip. To make things worse for Intel, the X2 4800+ is already availible!!! Intel's slower Sossaman won't even be availible till '06. By then AMD will be even further ahead perhaps an X2 52…

Quote: Originally posted by anand Actually, they need to get some new machines out soon. We have 5 Tibooks in our center that are all falling apart. Boss is so mad that he does not want another Apple. ): Are the alum books better? The ti books…

Quote: Originally posted by BRussell Does that make any sense? Think how long chip generations (e.g., G3, G4) have stayed in the PowerBook. Forever. It really doesn't stand to reason that they'll make a PowerBook with an all-new chip, only to mak…

I wonder if Apple will change the name to ProBook from PowerBook when they go to Intel? Hmmm.

Speculating from the latest info from Intel, IBM, Apple and a handfull of other sources; I am begining to believe the First Intel PowerBook may be a Merom, with Yonah based iBooks coming out earlier than that. I think there is a growing possiblity …

I'm not putting my money on WiMax. I could get into the technical details more but I think WiMax is looking to be an empty promise from Intel. If it does come to be, it'll probably be offered by cell phone providers to replace 3G and 4G if those n…

iPod Video Please no complaints about this being a photoshop fake. That's all I intended it to be, it's not even a very good fake, I spent about 15 minutes on this.

So the Mac goes from a unique total computer solution to just a really excellent operating system in a pretty enclosure. The hardware becomes no more powerfull than you're average PC.

Quote: That?s why each G5 features two unidirectional 32-bit data paths: one traveling into the processor and one traveling from the processor, unlike previous designs. Its frontside bus works at speeds up to 1.35GHz for an astounding 10.8GBps of t…

I am 100% sure Apple plans offer video through iTunes. Feel free to quote me on this. 1. Apple has added video support to iTunes. 2. Apple has hired one of the founders of Delicous Collection (esentially a very nice video iTunes). 3. There'…

Quote: Originally posted by Thereubster the only problem with this scenario (and it is a good one) is that put the change-over to Intel in the Majority of Apples products off until 2007, since the LOW power dual core 64bit processors are not goin…
