  • That's a dual-drive RAID solution (actually, it may just be joined, and not RAID, but it is just 2 x 500 GB disks). They actually sell TB drives, but they cost like $500 each. I think Hitachi has one out, and Seagate is supposedly prepping one. H…

  • Leopard won't have ZFS. Mac OS X supports software RAID 1. That would require two disks of the same size, and would make one disk an exact copy of the other. This would allow you to painless carry on if one of those disks died, because you have…

  • I don't foresee a Mac Pro GPU update to be in a big hurry. While the 8800-series is faster, DX10 means jack-squat to Mac users. Most Mac games don't really press a X1900XT anyways, unless it's on a 30-inch screen at max details or something, since…

  • I don't know about a savior, but Sun doesn't have much margin for error. Their CPU biz is in trouble if Rock and Niagra II don't hit it out of the park, and Solaris isn't gaining the marketshare they'd like. What I don't see is how Apple adopt…

  • Penryn is supposedly dropping in late Q3, which is basically September. What is unknown is exactly how hard the launch will be. As in, will there be enough chips to go around to all the OEMs, or what? Because there's a decent chance that Penryn l…
