  1. Re:PowerLogix produces one, almost on PowerPC 750GX Begins Sampling Next Month · · Score: 1

    I too have seen the 800mhz upgrade, but really want a full 1MB backside cache.

  2. Re:maybe not for new macs; upgrades would be nice on PowerPC 750GX Begins Sampling Next Month · · Score: 1

    Exactly.

    I work on a new machine. This is a server, dope!

  4. maybe not for new macs; upgrades would be nice on PowerPC 750GX Begins Sampling Next Month · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I'm not going to shell out $600 bucks for a 1 gigahertz G4 upgrade for my trusty 400mhz G3 server, but I might consider a 1 gigahertz G3 if the price was under $300.

    This is hardly an Apple story. The G3 (aka PPC 750) has many applications other than Macs.

    P.S. It's only a G3, G4, or G5 when it is used in a Mac, otherwise it's just a plain old PowerPC.

  5. Re:I love the Places sidebar! on Panther Analysis Getting Underway · · Score: 1

    XShelf allows one to break a move or copy in two steps by giving you a temporary holding pallete to which you can drag an icon or group of icons; but as others have mentioned, the copy/paste "hack" works, too.

  6. Aliens have taken 'The Strip' on Sega's Midwest Alien Horror Plans · · Score: 1

    I forsee an abduction of our beloved Salukis. Don't worry; the cops in Carbondale have plenty of riot gear and tear gas and soon will have the situation under control. The city and the university have been trying for a decade to change its "party" reputation for nearly a decade. I doubt this is what they have in mind for a new image.

  7. Yes on Is Mac OS X Slow? · · Score: 1

    I use Mac OS X 10.1.5 exclusively and it is definitely not waiting for me most of the time. 10.2 makes little difference on my non-QE G3 system. (The G4 is a bastard processor!)

    Maybe there's a faster OS out there for me, but as long as the work is getting done and I don't have to reboot, I don't care.
