2005-06-20 Thread Pat
I have been looking on intel site for the particular p4 that apple would 
be using, but searching even for just the word apple yields little.  I 
was curious to know which particular pentium4 apple uses or will use.  I 
have built several pentium 4 systems, one with dual processors, so spent 
a bit of time reading the intel specs for the 865PE and 875PE chipsets 
in the 478 pin config.  Does anyone know what name the apple intel chip 
will go by, assuming it is a pentium4 ?  Links are welcome.


Cheers, Pat

They won't be running PPC. The devlopment systems
Apple is shipping out soon have P4's and Apple's been
doing in-house x86 buils of the full OSX since day 1.

There's no reason they're going to use some chip other
than the P4 or one substantially like it. If they
were,
all this other work and shipping development systems
with a P4 would be wasted.

Some of those software companies are definately going
to be optimizing code for the P4. It'd be rather
dumb for Apple to then drop theif first production
Macs with Intel CPUs on the scene with IA64 chips or
anything so different from the P4.

There's a STRONG argument for managing the
Apple/IBM/Motorola alliance.

If the problem is IBM's financial shuffling, then what
kind of money does it take to buy out the chip-making
division?

Can supposedly cash-rich Apple do  this?  

Dunno. I'll have my Compacts, my Modulars and G3/G4
Macs, and the memories. 

To not have any different computing products will be
one of the saddest transitions I will ever have had to
make. Then Intel, like Microsoft will hold monopolies
on how we compute.

When this list and the others in it's stable were in
financial danger of
disappearing, we coughed up money to keep it going.
Wonder if all the Mac people were to buy stock in
Apple if the capital gained would be enough to make
that buy?

Interesting. But short of something drastically custom
in the CPU, I don't see how Apple can keep hackers
from having that OSX version running on generic PCs
very soon after it's release.
