  • [quote]Originally posted by Algol: What I am trying to say is not that an update is impossible, but that no great updates are coming. I am guessing that apple will go ahead and wait on the PB until they have a faster chip for it. Otherwise they m…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Algol: You guys just don't get it do you. Where is apple going to get these updates from. The current G4 can not scale much higher than 1.25Ghz. Look how freaking hot these chips are!!!! How in all the earth is apple …
  • After Tessera loses weight and gains more strength, it shall battle and prevail over fat columbus. Then Tessera will bow to the return of Trinity. Kihei will then be banished to the desert after losing weight.

  • Happily this is only the beginning Expect to see faster Sidewinder G3 cards later this year. Sahara G3 upgrade cards could debute in late Q1 or early Q2 '03.
  • i would also like to take a second and address why Apple won't release a 1.4Ghz G4. Lets assume that the 7470 tops out at 1.4Ghz. Much like the 7400 topped out at 500Mhz. Lets look at two possible roads that apple could take. 1.) assuming M…
  • [quote]Although I have to admit that a 1.4ghz would be nice this seems realistic. Though I would be (as would anyone here) happy over a 1.4ghz I wont get my hopes up too high for now. A slight price drop would be cool as well. Along with new …

  • Prices: Along with new towers will come a new price tag. A brand new logic board and CPU architecture means lots of R&D money to make up for. Expect prices on towers to go North before they go South. Prices on all other products will most li…
  • A few more things: The iMac G3: Yes, this product will be around for a little while longer. It is a key product in the sub-1,000 market. (remember, Apple sold 125,000 CRT iMac's last quarter) This product is still a money maker for the comp…
