Wild speculation: Could it be that Apple is switching to the new AVR32 DSP controller? http://www.atmel.com/products/AVR32/ http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/vi...&family_id=682 "For example, streaming a 320x240 MPEG movie over the AP7000'…

While the numbers are good, iPod revenue fell from $1.2 billion for AAPL FQ1 to $1 billion in FQ2 (despite a healthy growth in units sold). Also, AAPL was diluded by 13% in FQ2, because of stock options experices. I guess Apple will continue the …

A slashdot reader is writing the same thing as me about this survey: "Depends on what you define as "decent". At a 99% confidence level, a sample size of 200 means that the margin of error for this survey is +/- 9%. Even if you open it up to a 95% …

Quote: (In fact...the 200 number is actually a higher percentage than the number used for presidential election polling!) Please explain.. 1100 of the total number of voters is about 0% of the total voters.. 200 is about 0% of the total iPod buy…

Roxio will probably be around. Didnt their software division return to profitability again last fiscal Q? Their music division is bleeding money, and will probably continue to do so next year. But Roxio will probably not see the kind of losses t…

I guess its easier to get a performance boost from MT when the cpu got a big cache, since you want to switch thread/process when you got a cache-miss? Also, the Power5 includes altivec, right?

This will really make MWA the standard, with more and more DVD players supporting it, and the majority of all MP3 players sold is also able to play mwa files. Hopefully the industry will agree on a DRM standard, and since it doesnt look like Ap…
