New: G4 upgrade for Slot-Loading iMac
New: G4 upgrade for Slot-Loading iMac
03/22/2005 04:35 PMFastMac released a G4 upgrade for Slot-Loading iMac G3s, operating at
550 MHz with 1 MB of backside cache.
Quick look: 466 MHz G4 tray-loading iMac

Quick look: 466 MHz G4 tray-loading iMac
upgrade
09/03/2004 12:22 PMThe <a
href="http://fastmac.com/products/processors/tl_imac.php"
target="_blank">iMac Tray-Load G4/466MHz
upgrade</a> from <a href="http://fastmac.com"
target="_blank">FastMac</a> has a Motorola 450MHz
G4 7400 processor running at 466MHz, an upgraded 1 MB backside cache,
an AltiVec Velocity Engine and a 1 year limited (defect and
workmanship) warranty. Though only beginning to sell its products
under the FastMac name to consumers in 2003, the company has been
creating and selling upgrade products for Macintosh computers since
1998.
The upgraded machine was a Grape 333 MHz iMac with a recently upgraded
80 GB hard drive. Installing the FastMac processor upgrade is fairly
straight-forward when following FastMac's provided instructions.
After removing the cables it is advised that the computer be left for
five minutes in order for the components to cool. Following the five
minute wait, the next step was to remove the screws at the top of the
logic board/mass storage chassis. That step was followed by
disconnecting the audio, RGB, main power and IrDA cables, then
removing the logic board/mass storage chassis. Later the processor
card top shield was removed, then the heat sink clip and heat sink.
The processor card was then removed from the logic board connectors by
using the heatsink clip. An important piece of information to note
when replacing the processor card is that it is important to firmly
seat the processor in the logic board connectors, as the connectors
are not located in the center of the board, pressure has to be applied
in just the right spot for proper installation. If the processor card
is not seated correctly (as I found out after putting all of the parts
back together), the iMac will not boot. After the processor removal,
the RAM was then transferred from the old card onto the new FastMac
card, then the process was reversed.
{_pic}
The FastMac upgrade performed extremely well. After the processor
upgrade, overall performance increased, with speeds nearly doubling
that of the original processor. Booting Classic from OS X was about
twice as fast, as well as ripping a song from CD, and exporting using
Photoshop. Screen redraws were also faster and scrolling was quicker.
The $199.95 upgrade might not be worth the price if there are any
features offered in a new iMac or eMac that might catch your
attention. To sell the old machine (for around $300) and then adding
that amount to the money saved for <i>not</i> buying the
processor upgrade ($199), would leave the purchaser with only spending
an additional $300 to get a new <a
href="http://www.apple.com/emac"
target="_blank">1.25 GHz eMac</a>; a machine that
is significantly better than the old iMac. eMac's offer the same all
in one design of the 333 iMac but a new eMac would give an extra
2" of flat-CRT display area, a better resolution, faster
processor, a combo drive, FireWire ports and a larger hard drive.
Though the FastMac upgrade is an "incredible boost of speed and
power, allowing you to enjoy the next generation of Macintosh products
without burning a hole in your wallet," a small wallet hole might
not be that bad if looking for a significantly better machine. For
consumers who may not have the extra cash to spend on a new machine,
the FastMac upgrade is a cost-effective way to upgrade a machine and
is recommend if more processing power is needed.

04/14/2005 10:03 AM
ThinkSecret
is reporting the supposed details of Apple's Power Mac, iMac, and eMac
upgrades, presumed to be officially unveiled by the company at the
upcoming NAB conference. There's nothing terribly mind-blowing, mostly
because there is still no confirmation as to whether the top-end Power
Mac G5s (with speeds up to 2.7GHz) will have a dual-core version of
the 970 processor or not.
It also appears that rumors of a Blu-ray compatible SuperDrive were
pie-in-the-sky, although the rumors say dual-layer DVD+R support is
likely. Everything else sounds extremely reasonable, with modest
performance bumps across the line.

iMac G3 computers.
The upgrade replaces the original G3 CPU with a G4 CPU operating at
550 MHz and doubles the backside cache from 512k to 1 full MB,
resulting in a 3 to 4 times boost in speed & performance. After the
upgrade, the machine will be able to run programs it could not run
before, including GarageBand, iChat AV with iSight, and others. The
upgrade is 100% compatible with OS 9 and X, and is warranted for one
year.

Charles DeGaulle Airport. Looks to
be little more than a thick flat panel monitor, with the computer's
guts tucked behind the screen.
I would think that would be an easy build — just use the
basic parts from a laptop unit, wrap it with a spiffy new skin, jam in
a G5 processor and the proper cooling mechanisms, and there you have
it.

The Sub-$500 iMac?
12/29/2004 11:38 AMThis could be fun! Think
Secret says they know
what The Steve
will be unveiling at the January 11 Macworld Expo: a bare bones,
G4-based iMac without a display that will retail for $499.
This new product will be for a Windows user who has experienced the
iPod, the ease of use of the iTunes software, and has played around
with a Mac at an Apple retail store just long enough to know he'd buy
one if it were a little cheaper.
Code name Q88, the machine is said to be very small and designed to
either go underneath a monitor or stand upright, alongside a second
computer. The guys over at MacSlash
are hoping that it will also have a built-in KVM that will allow PC
switchers to run the iMac side-by-side with their existing PC, using
the same keyboard, mouse & monitor. That might be a little much to
hope for, but if the rest is true, that might shake things up a bit,
don't you think?
