  • Quote: Originally posted by Fat Freddy Dito Croquer, but they talk about a IBM G4 They say a 12" PowerBook G5 prototype at 1.4 GHz only gets 55 minutes of battery life. Then a week later they say it has since been pushed to 105 minutes. So…
  • Why can't they just do this? Desktops = G5 Portables = G4 Pro = Dual Consumer = Single This way a Pro desktop would have dual G5s while a consumer desktop would have a single G5 and a Pro portable would have a dual core G4 while a consu…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Leonard Yes, AppleInsider in fact confirmed this in one of their articles: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=508 Go to the bottom of the article. Of course it seems nobody can convince all those paranoid…

  • I would think that if Apple were to use 1.6 and 1.8 GHz 970fx G5 chips they would have been ready a month or two ago. At those lower clock speeds there shouldn't be a problem so I don't think that is the holdup. I wish they would take advantage of…

  • Ha! I've found the "Lucida" picture! The original can be found here but it was a bit too big for the forum so I resized it. Ah, memories...
