    MacOS 10 on Intel.

    Did I say it would be a PDA? I said it would be MacOS 10 on a new Messagepad 2000 -like device. Perhaps a Tablet Macintosh. Jobs said the PDA market is dying but also has hinted that there could be something that comes after the PDA market. That is why everyone is considering the whole...

    MacOS 10 on Intel.

    What if you have it all wrong? What if apple is working on an iPad, or some new reincarntion of the old Messagepad 2000 on an Intel Strongarm processor? What if Apple on Intel turns out to be a brand new Messagepad running MacOS 10 instead of NewtonOS? What if it is MacOS 10 with NewtonOS...

    Mac OS X 10.3 Panther!

    It was *FREE*. If you were stupid enough to get it from Apple then you paid the shipping costs. Yes 20 bux sounds abotu right for people who are too lazy to walk down to the local Microcenter or CompUSA and pick up the free on themselves. 10.3 will be the same way. MacOS major updates are...

    Mac OS X 10.3 Panther!

    7 months tops until 10.3 ships. Apple releases major updates to the shipping retail package every 6 to 7 months after it has shipped. 10.1 came out in September 2001 after 10.0 came out in March 2001. 10.4 is the one that will take a long time to wait for. Possibly January 2004 and it...

    Windows XP login / logout KILLER for OS X!!!

    I agree. Apple probably is working on this but will have to first figure out how to allow for multiple instances of certain apps to run. It might also be an issue with Carbon apps. I can see how cocoa apps would allow this to work. Anyway If apple is listening please figure out a way to...

    Speed Up Mac OS X.2...

    It is because you updated prebinding. It is not just adding new stuff. It is starting from 0 and redoing all your prebinding.

    iPhone??

    Why would they have to drop Moto? Already Apple is warming up to moto by moving all their mac's to their G4 line. Moto has experience in telecommunications. The G5 is geared for telecommunications. Great for switching etc. Moto has a slew of cell phones and it's hurting bad because they...

    Apple Secretly Maintaining X86 Port Of OS X

    I think everything is fine. Two processors are always better than 1. So what they are 1.25 ghz. Tell me, if you are running 1 app on a 2.5 ghz machine and 1 on a 1.25 ghz dual proc, would you notice a difference? Surely. The 2.5 ghz will be faster. Now, let's look at what the average...

    Will Ferrell switch video thread

    ebonics is real bro. It is fast becoming the popular dialect in the united states of america. Just listen to kids speak. It's pop culture. Don't make me pull the "R" word out on you. This kind of discussion has no place on a mac board

    iSync and AvantGo

    I think Apple is giving AvantGO the cold shoulder to promote something for Mac Users along the lines of AvantGO. Something that uses the new sherlock 3.0 technologies. I have no foundation for this prediction but it just seems the natural thing for them to do. It would work well to fit...

    Chimera > iWeb

    Wasn't Apple working on a browser back in the OpenDoc days? Didn't they kill the project because it was easier to go with MS's offerings? I forgot the name of the browser... Cyberdog i think. Anyway. I am not sure if Apple should choose this battle. Granted I think they would make an...

    intel cranks out 3 ghz chip.

    Ouch, I hope I did not give the impression I am all for moving to the Pentium. I was just pointing out the benefits of Apple going with a Mach kernel. Pretty much what I meant to say was that whatever chip they decide to move to, it will be fairly easy for them to make the transition. I...

    intel cranks out 3 ghz chip.

    Since Darwin is based on a mach kernel, making it run on a different platform is the biggest hurdle in getting apps to work on it. The nice thing about Mach is that "in theory" you could essentially have it so that when you compile a binary it compiles FAT for both platforms with no rewrite of...

    why doesn't apple just use the power4 ?

    Moving to the G5 would be extremely bold, but in the end would just screw things up even more. What you fail to realize that the G5 is 64 bit. Apple has enough to worry about than making its OS 64 bit clean, making developer tools to offer 64 bit Apps and have it worked out so you can have...

    intel cranks out 3 ghz chip.

    I think you put on there a G5 when you meant to put G4. Id like to offer this correction for you. Yes Apple should come out with faster G4's soon and next spring it should begin preparing us for the 64 bit version of the G5. As we all know G5's are 64 bit and would require even more...

    Installed Jaguar 6c98

    I have installed this on two machines. iMac/233 rev B - 256 Mbytes RAM G4/400 AGP Radeon 32MB - 576 Mbytes RAM Colorsync - I can run colorsync on the iMac no problem but not at all on the G4/400. I cannot even select a color profile on it. 2D redraw - Faster on my iMac than on the...

    Apple to charge for iTools (or .mac)?

    If Apple were to charge $100 a year for .mac services then so be it. So long as they offer *FREE* basic service to those people who buy new machines or an OS Upgrade each year. In otherwards. Buy a new mac, get .mac for free for 12 months. But OS 10.5, get .mac for free for the next...
