Elliott Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Don't count Intel releasing 64 bit chips. Apple went 1 step backwards when switching to Intel and this could hurt them further. Heck Intel's Mac processors are not supporting 64 bit while their desktops are, which is quite strange and Intel dual cores are not that great of an offering. The Intel iMacs are stuck at 4GB of RAM while the G5s could use more than 4GB. Too bad Apple didn't go green with AMD. EM64T, Intel's solution to the 64-bit IA-32 extension (which is all AMD64 is), also addresses more than 4GB of RAM. As well, most Intel chipsets support faster RAM (DDR2 667MHz) than AMD-supporting chipsets.

XiXora Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Merom is out iirc 2H of 2006, so we may see 64bit macs on the horizon. Perhaps, the Yonah chips are an interim before the 64bit chips as the Napa platform is interchangable with Yonah and Merom afaik. The Napa platform is used right? This way, not much reengineering has to be done ALSO Apple gets the boost of power and profit for another 6 months to a year while Intel sort out their chips. Good work imo, may as well get the codebase to x86 earlier than later. OR... They have Intel some how disable the 64bit extension. ;) All I have to say really, I'm waiting on 64bit a MacBook (or pro) or at least the next revision and a more mature Windows installation package ( I need/want Vista, but can settle for XP. I work with Visual Studio 2005 ). Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/192078-your-mac-hardware-setup/page/94/#findComment-587356822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxondale. Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 The Intel iMacs have a limit of 2GB, the G5 iMacs have the same limitation. Ram capacity is based on the mobo not the chip.... G5 Rev.C can go up to 2.5GB Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/192078-your-mac-hardware-setup/page/94/#findComment-587359927 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandango Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Also in picture: Windows XP Box (Packard Bell Machine) and Ubuntu Box (Dell PowerEdge). OS X, Windows and Ubuntu all run through two KVM's - so I can have a combination of any OS on the screens. And yes... that is Front Row on the PB, controlled by the white mobile (SE T630) via bluetooth. Run's fine through the TFT in closed-lid mode too :D:D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/192078-your-mac-hardware-setup/page/94/#findComment-587383067 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lieb39 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 My Dorm room.. Simple really. The PC is connected to the Powerbook via Synergy, I'm going to bring my LCD and just have that rather then the entire laptop there. External drive, only 120GB atm (connected via Firewire 800.. so nice) oh, and last revision G4 Powerbook, 80GB HDD, 1.5GB Ram and whatever else.
