  • Quote: Originally posted by G-News I'd just like to point out that a PPC 980 might very well still be marketed as G5 or G5+, after all the G4 also has undergone some major changes without actually changing name. The G4 hasn't had many new feat…
  • Quote: Originally posted by KANE Hang on there Matsu! I have a question for you or anyone in the know. What will have to be done to fix the G4? Everyone talks about the slow FSB that strangles the G4 which would otherwise be alot more faster. Who…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Addison We have all been waiting for so long for the 970 and you know what... I just don't want one until 10.3 is pre-installed. I hate buying an OS and then having to run the upgrade disk, if you have to do a restore i…

  • Quote: Originally posted by BRussell My understanding is that the OS will have to be revised to some extent to run on this machine. So what does it mean to have a new OS "optimized" to run 64-bit? Are we going to have 64-bit window resizing or so…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Powerdoc However it's strange that only one unit of the VMX engine have a deeper pipeline and not the others (some have only one stage, and one is shorter than the 7450). Can we assume that the 4 stage pipeline of the …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Patchouli Hmmm, nice close-up shots indeed, but to be honest - I have no idea what the hell I am looking at?! I always wondered, but never saw an actual processor before and never knew what was in there. What are …
  • Quote: Originally posted by lundy Not demented, just mistaken. I was at the WWDC last year, and there was no webcast. I had to type the play-by-play over the auditorium's Airport network onto DSLR's Mac forum for my friends. MacCentral and …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Rhumgod Live, and FREE, via Quicktime? I just can't remember any; maybe before (iMac intro) or after (all, via ADC/DVD), but not live. Maybe I am popping that blue pill onlooker eluded to. I remember seeing the k…
  • IMHO this kind of product sounds much better in theory than it works out in practice. The price of these things is usually very high and starts to compete with laptops. I would much, much rather have a 12" PowerBook with a real keyboard, instead of …

  • Quote: Originally posted by snoopy It will take them much longer than Apple and IBM to make such a transition, since the Itanium will not run native 32 bit x-86 code. That's not true. It's just slow as hell. Personally I see x86-64 winning out…
