The Apple News That Got Buried

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the times-eight dept.

An anonymous reader writes, "Apple's Showtime event was all well and good, but the big news today was on Anandtech.com. They found that the two dual-core CPUs in the Mac Pro were not only removable, but that they were able to insert two quad-core Clovertown CPUs. OS X recognized all eight cores and it worked fine. Anandtech could not release performance numbers for the new monster, but did report they were unable to max out the CPUs."

    Nobody cares that your blog is down. You're not that important. Get over yourself.

    You won't mind if I reject advice from an anonymous coward, right? But for your information, I have received emails today asking about my server status from Slashdot users. Interestingly, the greatest number of hits on my blog occurred a couple of months ago and was 50,000 visits in a 24 hour period..... Usually I run about 2-300 hits/day so at least some folks want to know and those are the ones I care about.
