    in Usb 2 Comment by zaz December 2002
  • Well, here is bit of news I thought was interesting: [quote]Looking at Intel's CPU roadmap, it's interesting to note that Intel will not be scaling clock speeds next year as rapidly as they did in 2002. This makes a lot of sense considering how…
    in Finally an interesting G5 story Comment by zaz November 2002
  • Further thought for all this Intel speed comparison. Intel is shortly gonna have to swallow its own advertising. The Itanium runs at a much lower clock speed than the current P4. They are even begining to sell the name 'Intel' and not so much…
    in Finally an interesting G5 story Comment by zaz November 2002
  • I would expect you might see an nVidia solution. No, no.. not a piece of hardware... I mean a naming convention ala GeForceTi(GF2Ti) and GeForce3Ti. IBM may sprout a G3 with Altivec(sic) and they arrive with the 970s timeframe. Apple has a …

  • As a former Store Manager for a 'large' Apple reseller before i made a run for the hills I am here to tell you they retailer have 0 clue on new product features. Yes, they may get EOL news, etc... but not tidbit one. Hell, my Apple regional re…
    in "CONFIRMED" FireWire 2 in Next Wave of Macs Comment by zaz October 2002
  • [quote]Originally posted by DHagan4755: And by the way, where it says "Mfg Part #:," in that picture above it also says, "M8592ll/ADISC" ADISC? Discontinued, perhaps? The 667 model does not carry this suffix. [ 10-26-2002: Message edited by: …
    in New Laptop model on October 15th. Comment by zaz October 2002
  • Power. DPs need Power, almost twice as much... That sure doesn't help battery life. If there was a DP laptop then my bet is only one CPU would be used while on battery power. That may or may not be a good thing. The added cost of a second CPU …
    in Now we have new PowerMacs - what about the PowerBook? Comment by zaz August 2002
  • So the real question is this: Is the the Logic Board we will be seeing for the next 18 months, or is it the 'stop-gap' board that will be replaced a short 6 months down the road? Let us hope that the entire Du-Op setup is a 'stop measure' The…
    in "G5 Ready" = "G5 Upgradable"? Comment by zaz August 2002
  • We must also note that while we have CPU speeds we do not know what version the CPU is or what the particulars are if it is a new rev. That, along with improved bus, could make this the most significant increase in PMAC speed since the original G…
    in Moved: New PowerMac specs Comment by zaz August 2002
  • My guess is they are spot on (though ATI vid cards seem odd) In detail, I would bet the 1699 unit stays with PC133 (effectively same as a QS) and the upper 2 go to DDR and a new platform.

    in White Studio Display Picture! Comment by zaz August 2002
  • OK, here is my take... It is a new model. DOn't ask me why or how Adobe has one...I have no idea. But here are the points in fact: ?Heavily back lit as this thing is it is still white and are no stripes. ?The white edging is as wide as …
    in White Studio Display Picture! Comment by zaz August 2002
  • People... get a grip. SEC and Wall Street, particularly in the current market climate would be all over this. Hell, you think Exec's get the eye for selling options... this would be headline news and the tech community would be in a frenzy. …
    in Apple spent 2 billion? on what? Comment by zaz August 2002
  • [quote]More importantly is how this showing of Apple's new OS at SIGGRAPH may index a stronger relationship with Apple in the very near future. As noted in a previous report, Nvidia has openly stated in a C/net article that they would be the number …
