    in Is the switch to Intel Jobs' worst business decision of his life? Comment by tuttle June 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by troberts Steve said the PPC Macs will be supported for many years so I expect 10.5 and 10.6 will be compiled and available for PPC Macs because: 1) Apple will still be selling them, at least the G5s, in 2007. 2) …

    in Apple confirms switch to Intel Comment by tuttle June 2005
  • The fuss? Despite the positive spin Steve tried to put on this disaster, at best Apple will be lucky to retain some percentage of their current installed base a few years from today. Today Apple sells proprietary systems based on PPC chips. I…

  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross Well, I just reread Apple's Unix tech briefing paper. They don't stop mentioning about how optimized for the G5 it is. They also make a point of telling us how optimized for the Velocity Engine it is. It wo…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Matsu Web reports are quoting 299 for an Xbox 360 vs 499 for the PS3. 300 vs 500. No they are not. The only thing about the price of the PS3 that is known at this time is Sony has stated it will be less than …

  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross I'm not sure that Apple wants to base a campain around that. Why challange these people by stating that "we're so secure"? It might sell computers, but it might result in attacks. Huh??? Do you hones…
