  • Quote: Originally posted by musicaltone Yes, it 'may' be an Alpha but OS 'errors' would at least show up in evry app or window. Not in some and but not in others. The OS doesnt draw on a separate set of rules depending on which window it is show…
  • Quote: Originally posted by musicaltone you might be onto something there, the way 'show all' is highlighted in the systems preferences pane is certainly wrong, the video option in iChat too looks out ... "wrong", or just different and new?
  • Quote: Originally posted by dunedain18 hmm, I wonder wether all of those pics are real. look at the system preferences. its title bar has a different look than the rest (you can still slightly see the stripes). same goes for the pic with exposé. …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Gargoyle looks mocked up to me.... On the final "screen" picture, notice the size of the window gadgets (X - +) They look totally out of proportion to the menu bar text.... that or this person has set the menu forn to …
  • Quote: Originally posted by ducasi Some of the things I notice different... . System Preferences: Just noticed - the "Show All" Icon is highlighted too. Same for "Video" in the iChat Preferences.

  • OK... In the past, Apple would announce a sexy new PowerMac, and on the same day motorola would announce a sexy new chip. So, in the future, Apple will announce a very sexy new PowerMac, and on the same day IBM will announce a very sexy new ch…

  • [quote]Originally posted by BlueJekyll: Well I think Apple needs to keep the X in the name. It's reminiscent of Unix, every Unix I know of has an X in it's name I guess you don't know many types of Unix then... Solaris is the most obvious ex…

  • These specs look really good for Apple, but I feel that IBM's blade servers could actually result in damage to Apple. Think about it - Apple sells loads of xServe's to these biotech company to do their protein cracking, or whatever. A single r…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Dave Hagan: Now, I don't know about anyone else, but this doesn't look or sound like any Pismo. I think it looks identical to the pismo latch. I don't understand the quote about not including a hook on the di…
  • [quote]Originally posted by taboo: Sigh. It's not a Pismo. Wrong shape..... herepage is the link for the Wallstreet/Pismo form factor. That's the patent on the pismo form factor, but not the details of its media bay, fans, etc. The fact tha…
  • [quote]Originally posted by taboo: patent number Looks like the Pismo. It had the media bay, latch and fan described in this patent. Why the patent application has appeared this year, well, who konws? The iBook and TiBook have better latc…
  • From reading the Register's article (URL above) it looks like the PalmOS transition between 4 and 5 is just a change of processor, like Apple's change from 68K to PPC. Old PalmOS 4 programs work in OS 5 by emulation (if they are not too low-level),…

  • [quote]Originally posted by philbot: The reason why the processor bars go so high is because Snapz Pro is grabbing such a large portion of the screen at a relatively high frame rate. Try it. Well that was in reply to my message, so I took…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Nonsuch: This skepticism seems a little hysterical to me ... hasn't it been pretty much accepted that Apple has been testing quad-processor configurations for a while now? It doesn't mean they'll ship one, now or ever. …
