Actualy this holiday season and next year is going to be the year of HD once HDTVs reach under the $1,000 mark and all of the HighDef DVD formats. I would like to point out that the last thing any consumer wants right now is XP 64. The drivers cu…

Quote: AMD is a future option when Apple moves to "Intel". AMD is an option if it ever makes a platform. Until then I doubt Apple wants to rely on five or six companies for an AMD solution. With Intel they can get their CPUs, chipsets, mainboard…

Odds are Apple is going to introduce one more G5. Yonah is already done (has been final for a few months) so the laptops wouldnt be a problem. However I do belive Apple is going to wait transitioning their iMac and PowerMac line until Yonah's psudo-…

Actualy I bet the switch to Intel is simply because Jobs feels IBM betrayed them. First with the promisse of a 3 Ghz G5 in under a year. Then they found out almost all of IBM's chip R&D was going into making striped down G5s for the next generat…

Each network and application has its good and bad side. If you want fast widely distributed downloads then a Bittorent client would be best. Personaly I recomend Azureus. Sure its java based, but it does the job and has plugins that allow you to d…

nonesense, one of the features of BIOS 2.0 and EFI is a modual that can be loaded at start to allow tech support access to those base settings with a pre-enviornment GUI. Its designed in such a way as to make it possible for remote troubleshooting …

Quote: What a load of crap. EMT64 gets the majority of its performance boost because it increases the number of registers available from 8 to 16, allowing the compiler greater flexibility. yes, if the software and OS is compiled for the the x86-…

Apple probebly wont allow consumers into the BIOS. They will just depend upon hardware detection, optimal settings, and the SPID of memory to disctate the settings. Only a small amount of PC users ever go into the BIOS anymore. With EFI and BIOS 2.0…

From what Intel has told us about Yonah 30 watts is going to be the maximum with 25 more likely to be the high point. Currently Centrino goes from 10 watts of heat disipation to about 25 or so. Remember Yonah is going to get a die shrink and when o…

Am I the only one that misses the old Apple logo that looked like a gay pride thing? Bring that back, never underestimate nastalgia. If you think about it Apple could say that they have come full circle and are now looking to shake up the computer i…

Walmart will back HD DVD probebly. It requires minimal change in the production of DVDs and the DVD player. Thats why HD DVD is cheaper and is going to be to market well before Blue-Ray. Then again DVD+R won the DVD wars even though it was the m…
