Unfortunately, I don't think I can wait much longer. The hamsters powering my ancient 9600 are slowly dying one by one and it's killing my productivity. I'm thinking of getting a stop-gap system until next summer since eBay Apple resales hold their value so well. Does the Formac have HD support like the 23 or is it more like the 22?
i just switched back to macs (for good now) with the dual 1.25 and formac 2010 (which has yet to arrive, grrrrrrr)
the dual 1.25 is so sweet, it lives up to the hype. I'm glad a waited for this one, and i'm sure youre next one will be even sweeter then my set-up

Sadly it doesn't even seem to want to connect any more...
Frown :(
Shame... I have soooo many PowerPC Macs just lying around being sad.

so, when is there going to be a babelfish translator for technical jargon that I dont understand? What does this mean, apple is going to make database software?

My comments were about the people who wrote the software, not those that just use it. It's the PyMusique programmers that may face legal troubles, while those who merely use the software may or may not face consequences (I suspect that the worse for them might be termination of their iTunes account, in which case they won't have to worry any longer about iTunes DRM).
Thanks for clearing that up, but I still don't undertsand why the creator(s) of PhMusique sohuld face legal charges. What have they done illegaly?

Yup. Proven technology. I sure hope he gets the picture.

those are two different observations, but you're correct, i was thinking l3.... heh, I had 3midterms this week and the other 22credit hours are backing up behind those. It made sense when I posted it... ;)
the first comment, however, was regarding the ibook with 133fsb g3 operating at 700mhz... we'll get a 733.. but then again, who am I to point out the flaws in others posts?

Lost Planet - 360
Dead Rising - 360
Rainbow 6 Vegas - 360
I bought Wario for Wii too can't remember if that was late Feb or early March.

I love Opera on the Wii...its quick and easy. I don't use it to replace my Mac, only to check stuff when I'm down stairs and to lazy to go upstairs, or don't have my iBook with me.
i find it to be clunky and hard to use... specially the typing.

Youtube works oh-so much better. On the trial version if I opened the video to full screen it would stop playing about half way through. Now it plays the full vid.
This is top. I like this. Hope the 360 takes note, though how much of a pain would it be operating a web browser without a mouse?
Yeah, flash video would crash my entire Wii about 1/3 of the time. I just noticed the blue glow coming from the cabinet my Wii is in, so I'll update it in a while and grab the new browser.

So sorry if I missed any thread on DVD Jon's involvement in this.
I have to admit that I am cynical he was the brains behind DeCSS. I always figured he played the patsy for some adult he knew. Like maybe the true owner of that Timex/Sinclair Spectrum thingy PC you see on his home page. I am however grateful for the program. I just think it was a matter of time before *someone* leaked or discovered the algorithm.
So getting to my point, it would seem like this guy is spending a lot of energy trying to piss off media corporations. The only conclusion I can see is that he wants the attention. Flirting with lawsuits sounds as crazy as publishing trade secrets on your website. :D There's also this pro-Real Networks thing I think I am getting from his site, but that's for another thread...
If I'm wrong and he's truely genius (and can repeat it), then maybe he ought to create something of his own with all that talent. If he knows so much about DRM and coding, there should be a whole lot more money in making the next generation DRM. Sometimes the best thieves make the best security experts. He'd still get the fame, and wouldn't have to worry about legal issues.
The line that "information wants to be free" won't buy a Porsche!

I actually like the one button mouse to a point. My whole family (immediate family of 8) are pc users except me and my brother. And you know what, only one uses the second button regurally and that is only for games. Hell, even my GF, a recent switcher never used the second button. The truth is, most PC users, except pro users, use the second button.
That being said, once one gets used to the second button, its hard to go back. Ask any mac user who has switched from a one button mouse and I bet they wouldn't go back.
One last thing, every standard mouse I used with a PC, I didn't enjoy. When I was a PC user, I ended up going out and buying a better mouse anyway, so I just see it as part of the computer world.

Heat wise the sticking with the G3 chip makes sense, I would love to see an iBook with a G3 900mhz and a 32meg ATI card. The t-books are to fragile, my Mac tech/sales guy has had to replace hinges, keyboards etc on those ;\
Oh well, only time will tell ;]

Yeah, the faster PCI is moving into server motherboards shortly, and will hit consumers by late if memory serves. It runs at 100MHz as opposed to the 66MHz that AGP runs at, and the 33MHz that the original PCI runs at.

Seeing how Motorola has been slacking off as it would seem, I wouldn't expect the G5 chip for a long time, possibly until late 2003. I looked at a PDF of Motorola's PPC processor chart, made in November and it then was talking about the G5. I was in Austin, TX attending a computer camp and heard that some guy leading the tour group talked about not only a G5 chip, but a G6 chip as well, and this was about 2 YEARS ago.
Unless theres something being hidden from public eyes, like what the new power macs will be sporting in Jan I don't see the possibility of a G5 chip yet. Though it is a possibility that there are gonna be some faster (much faster) chips now that OS X is gonna dominate.
My 2 cents as well.

Easier would be to parallel process a bunch of macs. Somewhere i have research info, we did this a few years back on a bunch of 5400's (they were outdated already and we started with 10bT enet to see what results it would get us)... We used software from the UCLA particle simulations labratory, Dean Dauger was the grad student in charge at the time... It worked surprisingly well, won us quite a few awards.
As for building a one-unit cluster. You'd have a hell of a time doing it without advanced knowledge of electrical engineering and electronics. But i think the hardware would support processor clustering, if it was done symetrically... some G4 techies might be able to tell you more...

fine, just dont say gigaflops. talk in MIPS (Millions of Instruction per Second). that sounds cool.

See sounds great. 1500 MIPS compared to 2.2gigahertz. MIPS sounds technical, and therefore better. That is good marketing.
