Here are my results: Quake3 1.31b5 tests in OS X High quality 32 bit mode No tweaked config file 1024x768 Xlr8yourmacs' 800mhz powerbook: 69.3 fps My 667 DVI mhz: 74.6 fps (just ran today again) Same as above but with 640 x 480 Xlr…

I checked the config file and they are exactly the same as the ones recorded on (untweaked config files.) I ran tests again this morning and I got the same results. This morning I got 4 fps more than the recorded 800mhz.

Thanks fot the info. I did not know that. I'll check it out.

I don't want to add fuel to the fire but I went to the UCLA store to check out the prices, and sure enough, they are selling them for $1899 and $2499 (I wanted to see if I could manage to get one at those prices but it didn't work.) I talked to the …

Isn't funny how we all want faster processors, yet most people barely scratch the surface of the power of a 667mhz or 800mhz processor. The internet is a major reason why people buy computers and so is word processing. My old Quadra 605 could do wha…

I didn't know the 667mhz DVI had a fan? I haven't heard it turn on if it does. Does anyone know? I thought only the 800mhz had the fan.

I have a new 667mhz powerbook and it gets pretty warm. I wouldn't call it hot. But it definitely would not last too long if it were sitting on something soft, like a pillow. Apple says not to do this in the manual though.

New 667mhz DVI powerbook (512mb ram) : 2371

Got it.

Didn't the last time something like this happened with ATI Steve was so angry he bumped ATI out and put Nvidia in?

Oh well, I guess you cancel this thread now.

1. Powerbooks: ( Bluetooth incorporated ) 800mhz, 933mhz 2. New wardrobe for Steve (it is Paris after all.)

I agree. Leave the dislpay alone. Its awesome right now. Any bigger would be ridiculous. I don't mind the ports on the back except for the ethernet port. I find its hard to click the cable out becuase the bottom of the display is kinda in the w…

Hey guys, I know this is vague. Believe me, I wanted more info than this, but would you rather me not post what I heard? And to clarify, I think people should buy Macs when they need them. Apple does need to stay in business, so don't wait. Even wit…

If those specs are true, Apple is going to have 5 months of pretty poor sales until MWSF.

The reason why a Porsche 911 is so distinctive is because the original design was awesome. The design is a classic and thats why it hasn't changed. That shape represents Porsche. It can't be mistaken for anything else. Apple is the same. You will ne…

As opposed to the type of guy who buys a a Trans Am because its faster than a BMW in a straight line. Design doesn't matter right? Nice comeback. For your info, I use my Mac mostly for Photoshop stuff and I don't care what the benchmarks say, …

Wow, What a bunch of whiners. I want this and I want that. And this what the're making in PC portables. Who cares about what you can get in a PC portable. The fact is that Apple is years ahead of anybody in terms of design, OS, and even hardware. If…

Also remember that that a 667mhz DVI Powerbook is faster than an 800mhz Powermac in every way. In this case mhz doesn't mean anything. Wow, I sound like Steve Jobs now.

I just bought a 667MHZ and I love it. Sure the 800mhz is faster but not by much. 133mhz isn't going to make or break anyone. Remember when the beige G3's were 233mhz and 266mhz with a $500 price difference! Kinda sounds funny now. The 667mhz is blaz…
