I just wanted to add a few things from another post of mine, sorry, just had to vent....... it's my understanding that the chip in the new pm's are apolo's. Although apple hasn't made any mention of this the tech's I know are talking like that's…

Could it be that IBM is making the G5? Why would it have to be Motorola Only reason that it makes sense to me that IBM wouldn't develop the chip is Altivec. Motorola owns that, which as far as I know, is why IBM only makes the G3 and not the G4 r…

it's my understanding that the chip in the new pm's are apolo's. Although apple hasn't made any mention of this the tech's I know are talking like that's the case. It seems to be a reasonable assumption since the appolo isn't planned to scale too mu…

certainly no later than the end of march g4's and g5's will both break the 1 ghz barrier. G4's 933-1.1mhz and g5's 1.1-1.6 multichip config on the top model.

J Dawg, Exactly, g3's were fimly nestled into the pb's for a long A** time. Apple still needs headroom for the imac and pb's to grow before the next chip (G5) would be small enough and cool enough to be in a pbk. or all in one. And we all know t…

The tune has never changed, Apple and moto have been working on the g5 chip for almost three years now. Curious to note that all of my old bookmarks to any and all G5 info are invalid. I can't anything on that project anymore. Last I heard from moto…

First off, when has apple ever shipped anything in less than seven days (perihperals aside). Tower, pb's etc. aren't made in quantities like pc's and more importantly the chips are fairly scarce. I have three apples now and each took more than a cou…

no one ever said it wasn't. The contention wether or not it will end up in towers or all in one's and pb's. I don't think that towers are where a low power, low heat chip would be needed.

[quote]Originally posted by Scott H.: What ever happened to that Matrox (sp?) "Real Time" video editing computers that even Apple said was coming but never came? Maybe Apple did get G4/Alti-Vec lust and just dropped it? It's about as useless …

Scott, Exactly, I've run it both with osx and os9. Osx "feels" more stable but it is slow. but I really think the problem is that apple is trying to replace the need for a $10-15k video card with its cpu. It works, just not perfectly well when co…

Remember the PowerMac and iMac shared the G3 for a while? Why not the G4? There's no rule that they have to have a different CPU. So long as people shell out money for over price under powered hardware Apple will be fine But in this case the g4 …

The facts that infer, Obviously, we can't be certain but there are several interesting points that make the g5 a likely addition within the coming months. Imac's get g4's fantastic but why buy a tower? Slots? you really don't need many of tho…

The facts, apple has deveoped a new motherboard, the g4 supports only two chips and will most likeley max out not too far above 1.1ghz. Final cut pro 3 needs upgrades to do it's job well. The 867 I work on does the job marginally well.(th…

pretty much as I thought.I geuss my mind wandered in thesea of speculation and took its own trip I just can't understand what happened in sf today. Well I can, I'm just not overly enthused. Mhz. war or not the prospects of a processor 3 times the…

I think apple needs to continue doing what they have been for the last couple of years. making a clear distinction between the two. Both want power and features but never the same kind of power or features. Entirely different needs. Apple's release …
