  • [quote]Originally posted by Clive: Because they will also have higher clockspeeds? No. I'm sorry, but I don't think you're getting this totally right. Regarding the Hammer, it already is some 20-40% faster than an equally clocked Athlon running …
  • [quote]Originally posted by ZO: You will have STILL saved money rather than buying in Europe Heh, guess how I bought my Ti666 three months ago? It was promo time, so I got a full GB of Ram with it. If I may suggest a good state to enjoy …
  • PC--good: price/performance, software availability, easy upgrades and customizations PC--bad: design, OS, device conflicts Mac--good: design, OS, no conflicts of any kind Mac--bad: price/performance, software availability, difficult/limited…
  • Well, I have the Ericsson T68, which AFAIK is only marginally different from the T68i. I bought last Xmas and I love it. The UI is not very fast, that's true, but so is OS X's! It has some minor T9-related bugs, but otherwise is a great phone. Wi…
  • What I find incredible is that there are some bugs/issues from 10.1 still present under 10.2. Like the issue when you plug/unplug the SoundSticks a couple of times (I rarely switch off, so this "a couple of times" might take some days), then some U…

  • [quote]Originally posted by MCQ: I think I'm a bit confused, if someone can enlighten me that'd be great. How fast can PCI send data through... 266MB/s? What difference would there be in using Firewire 2 (which I think is supposed to be 800 MB/s…
  • [quote]Originally posted by User Tron: And why did MOT lose their interest in the desktop area? Because SJ suddenly decided to kill the clones, hence destroy all of MOT's efforts in this area. The whole future of the PPC was in jeopardy, so MOT did…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Currawong: Apple doesn't get it? How is it they still successfully sell all-in-one computers in large quantities, whereas every PC manufacturer who tried failed dismally? So, Apple is great at selling all-in-one cons…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Stoo: A thousand Euros? Using the exchange rate to calculate the UK price might actually work for that! (Unlike dollar prices, where the actual exchange rate is 1:1 for computer equipment.. ) I was referring to st…
  • [quote]Originally posted by steve666: you have to give consumers what they want, not what their percieved need is. Apple is not a consumer oriented company, its a CEO oriented company. Thats what got them into trouble in the first place. Jobs has t…
  • Ok, so for the first time (IIRC) the whole pro desktop lineup is dual. Regarding this, I have a question for you guys: if price were not an issue, woulk it make more sense to opt for Mac OS X Server instead of the regular "client"? I know this mi…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Agent Cooper: sounds like your usage would be adequately served by an iBook or iMac. [SNIP] As for Diablo II, i run it on this iBook pretty frequently and never had a problem. iBook or iMac? Diablo II runs good on a…
  • I'go with the single proc, and I'd never think twice about it. I understand that most regular Mac users are the creative guys, who render complex 3D scenes and apply impossibly complicate Photoshop filters to huge images while at the same time ap…
  • I don't think a wheel-based interface on a phone is a good idea. Bang & Olufsen makes a home phone like this (actually, it's been around for years--that's why when I saw the iPod I thought "oh, another wheel... duh..."); anyway, considering cel…
  • [quote]Originally posted by xype: How about DDR-II? I think it all depends on the timeframe in which the new 970 Macs will be introduced. I don't know if it's a finalized standard already, but it'll probably be by mid 2003. The question is, will…
  • [quote]Originally posted by jwdawso: You guys are so smart and SJ, Jon Rubinstein, Phil Schiller, Avie Tevanian, Fred Anderson, and the rest of Apple are so dumb! Let's go to the next board meeting and present your ideas! I'm sure the board wil…
  • I think there was only one other machine in Apple's recent history that received so little and few (in this case none at all) upgrades for such a long time, and that very same product was met with the same ambiguous enthusiasm as the iMac II (great …
  • [quote]Originally posted by AirSluf: No reason to change the case then. You introduce the first mass-market 64-bit workstation using the same ol' boring ElCaptain case? Nah, I don't think it'd be a smart move marketing-wise. Granted, the current…
