    Sure, come down here to Venezuela, we are a poor country, but somehow we are the #3 country rated on people's happiness (some scientific study made a few weeks ago)

    GPL appears to common sense still found in people, and simply decency.

    If the trademark stuff gets too hectic, then maybe this will be needed, but for now i dont think it's needed

    remember i was comparing it to the 14" imac which has 1.0 ghz itself but still have the cache.

    since i will buy the thing in december, maybe this will change so i guess i just have to wait a month an a half

  11. Think of buying one. Tips? on Apple Updates iBook Line With G4 Processor · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Now i am really screwed. I was almost decided to buy the 12" powerbook and now i could get 2 inches bigger screen with the same ram and cpu ghz for 100$ less.

    Which one should i get? My current laptop has 12" too so screen size doesn't matter that much (both have the same resolutions anyway)

    I dont think i will be using the video output.

    I care most about raw speed of the laptop, since i have read that mac laptops are slow and i should get at least 512mb ram.

    A 1ghz mac laptop would be the equivalent of what pc's cpu speed?

  12. Re:Powerbook premium on Apple Updates iBook Line With G4 Processor · · Score: 1

    basically the powerbook is more expensive because it has twice the L2 cache of the imac. Remember how fast and important the L2 cache is.

    So, by definition, today i have learned something new.

    Who would know, the hard drives manufacturers, in their attempt to make users understand the whole thing better, they actually were right labeling hard drive capacity as they do
