Apparently, i’m one of them so i got to sit around a table at Yahoo, learn about the product and speak my mind. I have to say that i’m impressed that Yahoo folks wanted to hear all...

Mac - Power + x86?


Mac - Power + x86? 06/05/2005 11:19 PM

CNET has set the Internet abuzz by reporting that Apple is going to jump from Power to x86 silicon. I think it’s believable, porting the software doesn’t seem like that big a deal. Here’s a personal sidelight: Last year I was chatting with a very senior IBM person that I’d just met, who smirked at my PowerBook and said “You know, we make more money on every one of those than Apple does.” Remember, he was real senior and we’d just met. Those kinds of stories are for sure going to get back to Apple and they’re going to be real irritating. Look at it this way: once Apple makes the first big step away from Power, if they don’t like Intel’s attitude or Intel’s performance or Intel’s pricing, they can walk across the street to AMD. Or for that matter back to IBM, who might have become a little more humble and hungry. [Update: Several people have written to point out that the IBM person was probably wrong, since the G4 in the PowerBooks is made by Motorola/Freescale, not IBM. But I think the point about attitude stands.]

How much power does your PC need?


How much power does your PC need? 09/08/2004 05:15 AM

Thanks to Lockergnome for the link. I am going to relate a story to you that will have some of you smiling and some of you saying hey revoke his geek status. I have worked in the electronics field for 20 years and work within prescribed power constraints all the time. Thus you would have thought that when it came to my own PC's that I would have figured it out sooner than I did when I started to have some weird problems.

I went to work and was talking to my trusted co-worker Steve who is 20 years my senior and knows his computers. I told Steve of the performance issues I was having with one of my systems. We went over it in detail and then he asked me a crucial question. How many hard-drives you have in that machine? I replied innocently 6 plus a CDR and DVD Writer. He then asked what size power supply I had in it? I then knew in a instant where he was headed. So as I went home that night with my tail between my legs I got to wondering how bad it was.

Pulling out my calculator and visiting a dozen or so websites to pull stats on power consumption I gulped pretty hard when the numbers came up 450 watts. I broke open the box and you guessed it their to my dismay was in bold print 250 watts rated power.

The next day I dropped in to a local computer store and purchased the biggest power supply they had on the shelf 550 watts and brought it home and swapped the 250 out. Sure enough as soon as I fired up the machine I could tell the hard-drives where spinning up faster etc. Performance problem went away instantly.

Lesson here is those of you power users that have a scrawny 250 watt power supply in your chassis you better head over to the referenced site and see if you too are running a little lean on total watts. [Power Supply Wattage Calculator]

For those who depend on a computer for their daily bread, and especially if you like the generally rugged stability of Apple's hardware and, particularly, its operating system, the dual processor Power Mac G5 is an alluring purchase. By Mark Kellner, Washington Times (via MyAppleMenu)

Power Mac G5: Excellent


Power Mac G5: Excellent 01/07/2004 02:06 PM
“Power Mac G5 is Apple’s best work yet,” reads the headline on Tom Yager’s review in InfoWorld. The story summary continues the bouquet: “The Power Mac G5 desktop workstation presents the ideal balance of compatibility, performance, usability, and value. It has serious number-crunching capabilities, but this machine most clearly outshines Intel-based systems when performing complex operations on massive disk and/or RAM-based data sets.” Mac OS X 10.3 Panther and Mac OS X 10.3 Panther Server also are rated “Excellent” by Yager.
