If the PB gets a dual core - yes, it would provide the sufficent boost to my existing PB 1.25G G4. So would it be fair to say that the PB's are not likely to get a speed bump (7448?) this year, but a Dual Core Intel at MWSF?. Its close as the …

Quote: Originally posted by atomicham Well, I am basing them using the Celeron in the iBook on power savings not performance (if I understand you right). From the Inquirer Thanks for the link - I was referring to the currently shipping pe…

Quote: Originally posted by atomicham My guess is that the iBook will bet a Celeron-M (the somewhat stripped down version of Yonah). I have not seen the specs on a single core yonah, but a currently shipping dothan is single core and is in th…

Quote: Originally posted by Wingnut I figured it might be worth reporting in case people are thinking about trying it. Today, I successfully replaced my 4200rpm 80gb drive with a Hitachi 7200rpm 40gb drive. I always find fast HD's make a huge…

Quote: Originally posted by Bancho Rather than an external display (like spanning) option, I'd rather see an input to the display so I could use another machine with the iMac's display. That would also help futureproof it a bit. This would also m…

Quote: Originally posted by FallenFromTheTree Unless all of us have this wrong and the 970MP is in fact slated for use in the PowerBooks @2.0 GHz as the new MOBILE PROCESSOR Its unlikely we would see a dual core G5 PB in 2005 or even 2006. I…

Quote: Originally posted by THT But on the other hand, I agree with most of you guys. I've been a proponent of a Powerbook G5 for a long time. The Powerbook G4 is really a mid-ranged laptop and should be had for $1400 to $2400 or so. The $240…

Thanks PB - it seems that people read the "proposed" roadmap from freescale and hey presto! we have dual core G4's around the corner? As PB stated expect the dual core G4 by this time 2006 (at best!), until then there is some tech which could get…

A little birdie at Apple believes the update will be this tuesday - id say just a pathetic G4!

Quote: Originally posted by emig647 No a PB g5 is not needed... as long as they can improve speed without sacrificing design. Everyone thinks the powerbook g5 is g oing to be the holy grail. Its not. No one realizes how much wattage the g5 c…

Quote: Originally posted by PB Actually, the PC world is now in the Sonoma architecture. Near desktop-grade performance for mobile power saving features. Here is a review. These centrino's are beginning to cause laptops that are lighter and b…

You would think with falling sales and the unlikelyhood of a PB G5 at MWSF they could have bumped them to 1.7G in November?. Id say the 7447 could not get to 1.7 and the G5 wont work (yet) - so the PB is exactly where its at - stuck dead until an…

Id say Apple had every intention of getting the Powerbook G5 out by MWSF. They just could not get the Powerbook G5 they have in pre-production to be reliable enough and within the thermal paramaters they had hoped for. It looks as though the l…
