  • I'd guess the 970 is about 6 months off. Getting an e-mac now and maybe getting a 970 next year after they've gone through a revision may be the best thing if you are feeling cramped on your iBook. However, you'd probably feel just as cramped on …
  • [quote]Originally posted by applenut: I too was thinking about the need for 32MB of DDR RAM for the radeon when apple dosn't support dual displays.... seems very odd... You have heard of computer games, right?
  • I'd get the computer when you need it. Whether or not you should switch... I think Apple's laptops are the best on the market. There are some laptops that will outperform what Apple has to offer right now in terms of raw speed, but those laptops …
  • I think Apple will be first to bring 64-bit processors to the mainstream with the help of IBM's PPC970 because this IBM chip sounds like it has the capacity to run in laptops as well as desktops and has legs to scale up over the next few years. I…
  • A few months ago I copied all of my files from zip disks onto my hard drive and erased the zip disks and don't plan to use them ever again.
  • I think .Mac is doing pretty good. of the 2.2 million accounts, there were probably only 1.5 million members, maybe even less, and it will probably be up around 200,000 by Oct 14, which is more than 10% which I'd say is pretty good considering that …
  • PS2. More developers, more games, entire library of PS 1 games, no Microsoft.
  • I wouldn't trust most of the shops who are listed on pricewatch. OWC is good stuff. I'd trust them instead of buying from a crook to save a few bucks.
  • Can't name any must-have software without knowing what you will be doing, but I would consider Norton System Works to be a "don't-need" piece of software.
  • Less head movements? Heh. I think not. If you are using a file, it's not like the hard drive only uses that file. It will also be swapping things around, grabbing various sytem files, etc. On a new drive, the partitions could actually be sligh…
  • I'd go with the iBook, then you'll still have money left to get the software you need, such as office and maybe VPC, and you won't feel bad if you end up replacing the iBook in 2-3 years because it wasn't as expensive as the TiBook. iBook is also…
  • I would guess it's just that time of year when the trees are trying to reproduce so the acorns are falling off. kinda funny story though.
  • Bit-rate doesn't even necessarily mean "quality" when encoding an MP3. It's a trade off. If you have a piece of sound that can be compressed to take up 1.5 MB of hard drive and use up 10% of your processor to play it back, it may also be able to com…
  • It should save on time and development costs if Apple is no longer making OS 9 enablers for new hardware. It will also make it easier for apple to move to a much different motherboard architecture, because OS X isn't as picky as OS 9 about what it'…
  • Diagonal mounting is more aerodynamic, so your computer can go faster!
  • Did anybody notice that you can't position the tilt of the screen at all on this machine?
  • Hmm... well, $129 is is then. I'll buy it at the educational discount anyway, so it shouldn't cost me more than $70. I do think it is invalid to complain about the price because it's numbered 10.2 instead of 10.5. I mean, it's not like the upd…
  • Yeah, I was afraid that may have been the case there, sizzle chest. I was looking at PBparts.com and they had a Power/Sound board for my computer (pismo) that cost $229, but the guy said if it won't even turn on with the battery it is probably more …
