    in Future Powerbooks... Comment by philby April 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by onlooker They get their Screens from Samsung now which is where Apple gets theirs. AFAIK the Dell 2405 has a 24" Samsung PVA panel inside (display area 519mm x 325mm), while Apple, Benq, HP, LG, Sony use a 23" Phi…
    in Cinema Display Price Cuts... Comment by philby March 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by AppleInsider But more likely, the manual references an undelivered display option that was planned with the last round of PowerBook G4 updates, but canned just prior to the product line update released earlier this mon…
    in Apple to add high-density screen option to PowerBooks? Comment by philby February 2005

    in No new PowerBooks before the holidays Comment by philby October 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by Mr. MacPhisto The mobile version of the G5 will be far from crippled. I'd say its power consumption should be on par with the new Pentium Ms, from all I've heard from IBM. It will not run hot. Apple should be able t…

  • Quote: Originally posted by PB I don't know, let's see if philby has anything to add in this discussion. Unfortunately, they didn't go into more detail. The text of the paragraph is, roughly translated: «Using a infrared thermometer, we re…
    in iMac G5: So hot it may melt, literally Comment by philby October 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by PB Did the guys in c't say how they measured the temperature? they used an infrared thermometer (whatever that is) to measure the temperature; however, they don't say how hard they worked the CPU and GPU before me…
    in New Powerbook Comment by philby October 2004
  • The german tech mag c't has a 20" iMac G5 test in its latest edition. They measured temperatures of 34 degrees celsius in the bottom right corner of the screen, and up to 48 degrees celsius in the upper left corner. According to c't, TFT screens are…
    in New Powerbook Comment by philby October 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by THT I think it is fairly obvious that Apple can make a 17" Powerbook G5. It's the iMac G5 without the massive power supply and speakers which occupy the entire chin of the iMac G5. For the 15" Powerbook, Apple will hav…

    in IBM 90 nm SOC-processor for Apple? Comment by philby February 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by wizard69 The big issue with the G5 is that it really isn't a stellar performer relative to the G4 at similar clock rates. That's exactly what I've been thinking lately, looking at test results of the 1.6GHz G5 vs. t…
    in MOSR: Next Powerbook has G4 Comment by philby February 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by TrevorD There's no reason to keep the iMac tremendously slower than the PMs. Even if the PowerBooks are a bit slower, who cares? PowerBooks are portables, and iMacs are desktops... it's generally accepted that portable…
    in Across the board G5 desktop transition? Comment by philby January 2004
  • Quote: Originally posted by Aphelion And we may see a dual G4 Powerbook if that happens. Doubtful, as a DP 1.25 GHz G4 would probably be faster for many tasks than a single 1.6 GHz G5. The G5 is not that much faster than a G4 MHz for Mhz, un…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Jubelum Common Sense. Why not just put a 23" HD in a laptop, while we're at it. Wait! Wasn't Apple rumoured to be working on a 30" display? Maybe this will be the next PowerBook! Bigger is better. Less is less.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Nebagakid GIMMIE THE POWERBOOK G5's in APRIL! PLEASE? We wantss it! Prrreciousss. However, seeing those monster fan arrays inside the G5 XServe, I doubt we'll see a G5 PowerBook soon.
