  • Keep in mind that the distance between "almost laptop size" to "exactly laptop size" can be of critical importance. Keep in mind that the Xserve has two processors, two drive bays, etc.
  • I think they'd need to make it bigger, to get a decently sized color screen, and to have a battery big enough to power the thing for a while. Will they? Maybe. MS is, and I think Apple would want to compete. But the price would have to be high
  • And thats it...new G5? Let's hope its soon
  • I dunno. Betting against the iPod has been a losing prospect, but it's hard to see this thing as a great deal. I really wish they'd make one with 2GB for $200. I really think hitting that price point would be good. Jobs has a good point that it's…
  • God this ad Apple made is so damn lame
  • I am hoping for a "One more thing" here
  • But seeing as the 17" iMac is currently the best selling Mac at the Apple store... I hope this is a joke
  • BTW, most info says that the dual G5 has been selling extremely well. If there is that much demand for the high end, it makes sense to push those people to pay more for the privilege. If Apple did it, they'd assume the amount of money they'd make wi…
  • A dual 2.6 could beat the pudding out of any sub-$5000 machine living or dead and screw your mom at the same time
  • We're back to seemingly good times with processors, which means MOSR is once again trotting out it's "Pentium killer in 6-12 months" act, which I recall back from the pre-G3 days. Umm...yeah. This might be true, or might not be. My hope is that a…
  • I may be showing my ignorance here, but if you are measuring the air output from the exhaust you are not measuring the heat generated by the CPU's but rather the heat transfered to the air that is coming out of the enclosure. Well it's not like t…
  • So if Apple reaches 3GHz next year, and Intel 4GHz, the gap in absolute clock speed will remain the same, and the percentage gap will decrease. Sounds like good news for Apple to me
  • The G5 is a workstation. It is for workstation applications. Applications with a requirement for fast drives eg Final Cut Pro. Imagine if the only internal drives usable were IDE, there would be hell to pay! Umm howso? I heard no complaints about…
  • For me, the issue w/ no IDE isn't that SATA won't let you get enough storage space, just that it's expensive. My Mac has 240GB of space in it in two IDE drives. My PC has 360GB of space in it in two IDE drives. Total cost for all of the 600GB of …
  • Chagi - because the processor cannot actually use the DDR
  • My experience is that if you are running Linux w/ KDE or Gnome, you'll need as much base RAM as OS X(if not more). Then applications all basically take about the same. So if he's going Linux->OS X and doing the same things w/ both, he should j…
  • My CRT iMac 400Mhz G3 is way faster browsing the internet with Safari compared to my 1.6Ghz Pentium 4 on the same connection. Hahahahah ok...yeah. How about you give us some websites and compare the rendering times. I'm on a 1GHz P3 right here, a…

  • Dell frequently has many instant and mail-in rebate deals. A few weeks ago I was a mouse click away from getting a Dell 4600 w/ 2.4GHz P4, 800MHz bus, 256MB DDR, 128MB nVidia 5600(IIRC), etc. For $350 Don't spew this BS about how Dell's have c…
  • You want to know the real problem? Honestly? No Mac guys in IT. This has happened 1st because Macs have a low marketshare to begin with, 2nd because so many Mac users are "creative" types who, like it or not, often don't know jack about computers…
  • Existence - umm...no dude. you're an idiot. sorry, reboot and try again
