  • Nehalem is out and there are not even any rumors about upgraded Pros. So, unfortunately the 1.Q.09 prediction seems to be right.

  • This article seems to be a wet dream. According to this article the Woodcrest/Xeon 5100 series will use FB-DIMMs, not DDR2: http://arstechnica.com/articles/paed.../promacs.ars/2 Furthermore the prices cannot be correct since the processors alo…

  • Quote: Originally posted by fahlman Unless my math is wrong, I am from Indiana, if the Dual 2.7 GHz Power Mac is released tomorrow we will have seen a 35% increase in processor speed in 20 months. Is this so bad? Right: +35% processor spee…
  • I just ordered the new Dual 2.7GHz. Any idea what processor that is? Especially, is this still water-cooled or air-cooled?
  • Quote: Originally posted by snoopy I remember reading somewhere that a dual core AMD will dissipated 130W at 2.2 GHz. I began to speculate that water cooled Power Macs may have been designed to handle a lot more heat than they presently do. Th…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Programmer That published list is rather odd -- it contains the 5200, but not the 9600. AFAIK the 9600 has all the capabilities of the 5200, and more... plus it performs better. I'm suspicious of a mistake in this "o…
  • Quote: Originally posted by BZ Tiger... no new hardware! DAMN YOU APPLE! BZ Well, they eliminated the ATI 9800 from the options.
  • Quote: Originally posted by rc44 Yes, this thread totally got hijacked. So what are the new release predictions? I hope we don't have to wait until WWDC. And what bothers me is, even when they "announce" new PMs, it will almost be inevitable t…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Thereubster Sorry I didn't mean a "retail" version, I meant they come with Install disks as well as restore disks. I'm certain the "install" disks are the same as a retail copy of OSX, why would they be different? (an…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Thereubster The other thing worth noting is that OUTSIDE the US, Apple ships their products with BOTH restore CD's (or DVD) AND a full install CD set of OSX. At least in the UK, Australia and New Zealand I know they do…
  • The Apple discussion boards are full with hundreds of messages of users who bought "full install disks" from eBay and other "cheap" sources that would not install on their Macs. In 95% of these cases they received harware specific software install&a…
  • Quote: Originally posted by emig647 Again, 2.3, 2.5, 2.8 is most likely what we will see. I don't think so. Apple has to justify the price for the top model. I believe they will offer something more along this line: 2.0, 2.3, 2.8 GHz
