    Why not more MP systems?

    I am hopeing for dual proc as standard on all of the incoming G5 machines. You wouldn't even be able to buy a single proc system, because apple didn't even bother designing it and saved R&D money. And the high end machine is a 8 proc 1.6 GHz G5 system. Ooooohhhhh...... I get shivers just...

    Why not more MP systems?

    Remember when adding the second processor on the mac systems was only about $250 extra? Beyond the R & D cost, the only extra cost of a multiprocessor system is for the extra processor and cache (I think). My guess is that apple could go compleatly MP on all of its high end machines (G4s not...

    Sharing a ppp connection over ethernet.

    How do I share a ppp (modem) connection over ethernet on mac os x.1?? I used to be able to do it with IPNetRouter (i believe that is the program). I am hoping that I can do it with unix under os x for free. Any good solutions out there?

    I Have Been Forced To Buy A Pc

    I dont know about you guys, but I have found that is the person that is on the machine at the time that causes the instabilaty. Recent examples: When I ran os 9.2.1 on my laptop (before 10.1 came out), I had uptimes of approx 1 week on average. If my girlfriend got on the machine, there was...

    MAC OS X on Intel platform!!!

    I have always consitered a mac os port to intel archtecture a waste of apple's resources. The x86 arcetecture is showing its age, and from the sound of it, amd's chips spend most of thier resouces converting the x86 commands over to a more efficent risc type design. If anyone here hasnt seen...

    Thanks Apple

    What big features do you guys think will be in OS 10.2 and beyond? After 10.3 and all of the little bug fixes, what do you think that apple will have in v11.0 to make the tech market go "OMG!!"? Check out my thread on the subject for my own ideas. :D...

    Whats in store in 10.2 and 10.3??

    Steive said that the os x upgrade cycle is like a clock, right? And 10.1 is 6 o'clock, right? Didn't he say that 10.2 is 9 oclock which would put 10.3 at 12 o'clock. And then, at v10.3, OS X would be ready for mainstream market. (default on startup, advertizing blitz, ect.) So, my question...

    Software RAID?

    In the betas of OS X.1, i kept on hearing of a software raid setup. I havent heard of that at all recently. Was support for that dropped? Is it still there? Is it only on mac os x server (it is advertized as being there on the server addition)? I doubt i will use it, but it would be nice to have :-)

    Sooo... What is in store for OS X v.2 and v.3??

    Hmmmmm..... no replies. I'll add a few ideas of my own. Note: This dosen't have to be ideas for 10.2 and 10.3, it could be v11 or the sort. It would be cool to have a framework for distributed computing built into the system. Imagine Maya for mac release 2 adding support for this. See...
