http://news.com.com/2100-1040-979129.html?tag=fd_lede1_hed This is it folx. This is what was coming down the line. I never thought Apple would do it. I protested it but I knew once Apple decided to start charging for iApps that it was game over for the PowerPC. Apple has been...

Small FM transmitters are actually quite legal here in the United States. They can be found at radio shack. It only sends the signal a couple of feet (don't care to know what a meter is since this is America) but the only problem is that any station broadcasting on the same signal can easily...

Are you sure it's a mac? It looks like a gateway to me.

Here are my top 5 suggestions 5.) PowerPC X 4.) PowerPC 64 3.) PowerPC iCPU 2.) PowerPC iChip And the NUMBER 1 spot goes to... 1.) PowerPC G5 All this means nothing as the chip will almost certainly be named the PowerPC 970. I have a feeling apple will go back to the old method...

I fail to see why any of this means much of anything. I mean sure Intel and AMD have managed to go at warp speeds but bus speeds have not improved much in the past 5 years. We have gone from 33mhz to 266 mhz in 5 years meaning the ratio between bus and processor speeds have gone from 2/1 to...

I was looking for this like over a year ago. I am glad it has been released. Windows XP had it already but I could never fully test it. Heh, I could have avoided buying a switch and 10/100 card for the PC :-(

Does this mean they will have to be more objective in their replies to forum threads? I hope not.

Good luck Ed and look forward to Buddha. I hope you both enjoy your new Endeavors

The thing is you guys are creating flame material by trying to maintain the level of civility you are comfortable with. It is becoming counterproductive when threads are diverted from the topic to "Ed deleted my post" and then all this back and forth banter as to why Ed has that right and what...

Ed I think you are going above and beyond the duty as a moderator. Look, it's one thing if someone cusses you out or calls you a derogatory comment THAT is a racial slur, a slur about your sexuality. That is grounds for censoring. It is also grounds if you do something like smear a...

Ed please keep your opinions to yourself. This is the most extreme comment you've ever had. Alot of people use AOL and it I happen to be one of them. I like AOL and I am highly offended that you would suggest that just because AOL owns the Netscape trademark that means Netscape is some evil...

I think Woz will be there purely for purposes that deal with Apple and Education or one of his new projects, Apple, and Education...

Not to mention it is a little ugly... I sure wouldn't buy it and Apple would never release something that ugly as a PDA. Give them a little more credit :-)

We do not know if MacOS will be any faster on an x86 processor. Place all bets on the 970. It's an easier path to follow than the itanium vs AMD 64. As it is, the 32 bit x86 out there now is not Apple's answer. It's on the way out and it's time to start looking at 64. Might as well go 970.

How is it non-standard? The UI is possibly the easiest and simplest compared to what's out there. A side bar that utilizes the Cocoa Drawer? The preference panes? The Ability to customize your tool bar? I think the only thing missing is the ability to choose how far back you go in the...

Mind telling us which magazine and uploading a scanned pic of it?

I dunno, I think Jeremiah Cohick is far more interesting than this chick... :-)

"hey baby, see my BIG g4? wanna go out with me?" I will never understand what the fascination is with this chick... She was in ONE apple ad. It's not like she's a supermodel. Some people...

Uhm no. The G4 is not a variant of the G3. The G3 came from the 601 603 family of PowerPCs. It is not suitable for multiprocessing and has a smaller cache than the 604 and G4. The G4 is not just a G3 without Altivec. Altivec was added to the G4 but could have very well been added to the G3...

No, it's not. The PowerPC in the gamecube is a special version of the G4 for embedded machines. It runs slightly cooler and doesn't have Altivec and performs special functions for the gamecube.
