[quote]Originally posted by DaveLee: By the time SF comes around, you can bet that AMD will have launched the Opteron at 3600+ and Intel will be at 2.8 GHz at least. I'd like to elaborate some more on this, since you offered such a great example…

[quote]Originally posted by Telomar: I really seriously doubt 95% of the people on these boards truly have any use what-so-ever for a full 64-bit processor. Whether the next chip is 64-bit or 32 bit won't really make too much difference except as a…

[quote]Originally posted by spooky: How exactly does the above constitute 2002 being apple's year? I think he means "the year in which Apple will finally regain some of the ground they lost since 1999, so as not to appear riculously behind t…

[quote]Originally posted by ZoranS: Zoso, do you truly believe that the Mac user base which includes a great deal of talented people would be skipped over as a market? No, seriously, I don't believe that as a "general rule". I mean, Photoshop is…

[quote]Originally posted by zaz: 34% could be 500,000 last year and the newer 27% could be 600,000 this year. More actual users, but less market share. This is true for "the other 95%" too. Think about it, when our yearly 100,000 users gain wil…

This whole SGI affair is a very tantalizing possibility, IMHO. I've been actually talking about this topic with some firends of mine for more than a year--and it looks like I wasn't the only fool exploring the possibilities! I must admit that …

[quote]Originally posted by Barto: Is there such a thing as MPEG4 audio? I thought that MPEG4 was video+wrapper, and the default audio codec was something different? Yes, and somebody at xlr8yourmac (a couple of weeks ago) made a comparison of d…

Ok, let's try to sum up all the rumors... Lucida: a new iDevice, hard disk-based like the iPod, FireWire connection, hybrid still/motion, possibly at a medium/low resolution Glove: new licensing scheme that's going to hit Microsoft right in th…

[quote]Originally posted by Murder By Syntax: a 1.8 Ghz P4 with a 400Mhz FSB (800 mhz Ram) is slower as a 1 Ghz G4 with a 133mhz FSB (133mhz Ram) You're completely missing the point here. Any P4 clocked below 2 GHz is pitiful. The 2.53 with th…

[quote]Originally posted by warpd: Somebody slap me down if I am wrong, but from IBM's specs on this Power4 processor, it is purely intended for the server market. Wouldn't it require a major rev of the architecture for it to be accomodated in a M…

[quote]Originally posted by BobtheTomato: Wouldn't the CPU side of the ASIC chip be made for the current 133Mhz 1 GB/s chip interface. I mean the memory side is the right speed, but what about the CPU side? Most NorthBridges are asynchronous in …

[quote]Originally posted by babel-syndrome: What else? nVidea is looking for new markets. They just released a x86-chip-set that`s really fast, innovative and stable and they succeeded in the Graphics-card buisiness which is highly competitive just…

[quote]Originally posted by Gamblor: In the past eighteen months, Moto has done an impressive job moving the G4 forward. From 466(actually 500 since it came out even earlier, and guess what, 500 MHz was the speed at which the G4 was first introd…

Looks like somebody else had the same idea: from the XLR8 front page Aiff - 45.2 MB - cd quality (cd audio) MP3 - 6.1 MB - 192 kbps (sounds good) MP4 - 1.8 MB - 56 kbps (drastic loss of highs) MP4 - 3.1 MB - 96 kbps (sounds as good as 192 mp3)…

[quote]Originally posted by anamac: Combined with Steve J's comment in the C-Net article today that mp4 "blows away mp3", my first thought was that the next gen iPod would not be the coolest mp3 player...it would be the first mp4 player Hey, tha…

Just to add more fuel to the fire, what about this--from THG's Computex coverage: [quote]Further highlights were the DDR 400 motherboards A7V8X [that's Asus, a Big Player, for those not familiar with the PC mobo biz] with VIA´s KT400 and Serial…

"The future of PowerMac is closer than you think". Unfortunately it might be further away than we might dare to hope: VIA at the Computex 2002 show in Taipei is discussing plans to implement and support a 667 MHz Front Side Bus for use with the u…
