Apple assumes that not many Photoshoppers and Finalcut editors will be drawn to a 768 X 1024 screen, so therefore Apple assumes that an L3 cache won't help the kind of user that buys that laptop. They assume that most 12" Powerbook buyers are iBook …

Why would anybody buy the 15" PB if the 12 has = specs? Anyway, the 12 isn't intended for processor intensive stuff-it is, in essence, a consumer computer. [ 02-14-2003: Message edited by: os10geek ]

An Apple tablet would only be good if... 1) ...it had a form of data entry other than Inkwell. 2) ...it didn't look like a Windows tablet. 3) ...it had a kickass processor. 4) ...it had little to no bezel. 5) ...it whitened your teeth and cur…

If Apple, just tomorrow, released a Powerbook 970, would it be the first 64-bit laptop? Hell, that would be a selling point equal or greater than the DP Powerbook selling point. And if they did...tomorrow is my birthday, by the way...

Hmmm... I still think that a Powerbook with dual processors is a completely possible and feasable option. Think: Most professional-level PC portables are about 2 inches thick , and the Powerbook, with one processor, is 1 inch thick. Add another pr…

Thats good. I really want to replace my Beige G3/300. But you know what? It runs OS X just fine, except for minimizing windows, but I can live with that. But what I can't live with is how long every kind of processor intensive task takes. AND I want…

I mentioned this on the " something fishy-iPod thread"... according to an anonymous source, we will have full color video pods with Firewire 800 by tuesday. Of course we will, why doubt that statement of truth! See the "full" story

That sucks. So much for the Aluminum 15 inch Powerbook. There is still the ipod, though. What store did you see it in, 709? Or are you just making that up to step on our hopes and longings for a new Pbook?

That is wierd. The fab four? The 15" that is fully in the photo seems to be the old Titanium. Are you sure the bottom one is the iBook? But on second thought, why in hell would they sell both the Titanium and Aliminum laptops, in the same size? Besi…

Back to the 15.4" Powerbook... Who honestly thinks that it will include the backlit keyboard of the 17" model? I do, becuse I feel that the 15" PB should remain the flagship portable, for one reason: The 12 and 17 inchers are being sold by their por…

To that guy that was bitching about 2 dead pixels in his brand-new kickass Cinema HD- Thats 2 out of, what, 2.3 million pixels that are alive and well? And unless you focus on seeing the dead 'uns, they won't interfere with your work anyway.

About dual G4's in a laptop- it wouldn't be that hard to do. Just up the thickness to 1.5 inches, and it would be completely feasible. Not to mention the fact that most PC laptops are 2 inches plus
-
The powerbook 15" would make sense to be the fastest in the portable line, for 1 reason: The 17" and 12" models have their unique sizes selling them, so the 15" has to have something other than compactness/LCD size, respectively, selling it. The 15…

To BRussel: Heh what? It has only happened a couple times, last time being the added $100 for flat panel iMacs, and that was the manufacturer's fault, not Apple's. And look, the price went back down, and now they are another $100 cheaper with the m…

It would look bad to have the new models cost more than they are now. Apple almost never escalates prices.

I dunno... Something deep, deep in the depths of my evil soul, something yells: NO, NOT INTEL! DON'T SWITCH TO INTEL, PLEASE! PLEASE, APPLE, DO NOT BETRAY US! A POWER5 WOULD BE GOOD INSTEAD! (hint,hint)

Nice post, Lemon Bon Bon. You are completely correct. Apple's niche will get no smaller. On the contrary, it will probably increase instead. Apple should make as many Apple-apps as possible, so they don't have to be dependent on as many companies. P…

The bad pressed OS, Longhorn, does look a lot like OS X...M$ has dropped the cheap gradient-chrome look and now everything looks kind of shiny, like Aqua. But Aqua still looks better. You can find Longhorn screenshots at google images by typing …

If it's not Xeon, what is Intel's 64-bit flagship? Do they even have a 64-bit flagship? It's not like I'm on the Intel site 24/7

Well, they're not run on 32-bit, 3 ghz P4s, now are they? They're run on slower(in the megahertz sense)64-bit Xeons.
