does make sense from a security standpoint. wonder how long it'll take some bored 13 yr old to figure out which memory block the data decrypts to and write a util to display it. as went itunes, maybe will this. in the meantime, sounds like this…

ineedag5pbnow, so when apple does finally release G5 PBs, will you change your login name to "ineedag6pbnow?"

re: blu-ray debate, i'm also skeptical. but there is one possibility i haven't seen mentioned: standard config is DVD. blu-ray is BTO for $1000 or whatever. apple sells blu-ray media direct from store for equally royal price. BTO+media sale…

from all the hints, including IBM doc leaks, it seems clear a PPC MP is coming, just a matter of when. latest rumors suggest this month, tho nothing substantiated at this point, so i'll believe it when i see it. but honestly, i don't think app…

Quote: Originally posted by Programmer These days, in the multi-GHz era, even the time to send signals between cores on the same chip is too high compared to how fast the cores are grinding through instructions. i know you're right on this. b…

Quote: Originally posted by onlooker But mobile iTunes was announced by SJ a while ago at that mot show. Thread could go any where, but It's not really future hardware anymore. that makes sense. in that case, there is already a thread in "dig…

>>>I think it should be current hardware though. there's a thread in digital hub, moved from current hardware. so maybe that's appropriate. still seems "future" w.r.t speculation on the apple/itunes version forthcoming.

Quote: Originally posted by a j stev Whilst the 7447B is ok, I have a sneaking suspicion the next PowerBook will see a greater performance jump. agreed. on this note, what's the group consensus on how likely 7448 is for WWDC? yesterday, …
-
from all the passion on both sides of the performance topic, it's clear people's patience is frayed. the core issue seems to be the lingering "legacy" G4. if IBM hadn't had so many bumps in the 90nm migration, we might have PB G5s by now (MWSF'0…

Quote: Originally posted by segovius And the Italian site right at the bottom mentions PB G5. [/B] the italian site is clearly a typo, as it is the path to the current page, which shares the same title, and only contains G4 otherwise.

ditto, re: not faked. i checked the page source, myself, too, and found the "G5" snipit. that said, i definitely agree with the sentiment that someone at apple IT is just messing with us. i wouldn't be surprised if they ran an office pool for w…

5% is scant, but still more than i expected. unless they bump up the L2 cache, it seems 512K is a pretty small memory slice for modern media apps, not to mention an OS juggling so many threads. re: 9800 mobility, agreed. i don't expect to see t…
