  1. Re:Apple and GCC on 10 Things Apple Did To Make Mac OS X Faster · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, on the Intel side, Apple is going with the Intel compiler, probably because it's faster than GCC Intel.

    Are you sure about this? I thought Intel's compiler wasn't going to support Objective-C++? If it doesn't have support for Objective-C++, then how can Apple use it?

  2. Re:we're screwed with carelessness. on 360 Disc Scratching Serious Problem · · Score: 1

    You can also make backup copies of the data from a hard disk. These backup copies can actually be very handy if you carelessly allow one of your hard disks to crash.

  3. Re:Great! on Mac OS X Gaining Ground In Corporate Environs · · Score: 1

    Actually, Darwin's kernel (xnu) is a BSD kernel implemented using the Mach microkernel. This has nothing to do with FreeBSD.

    There may be some things from FreeBSD in the userspace, but there are things from NetBSD and OpenBSD there too.

  4. Re:OS X on a PC on First Look at Apple's Intel Developer Macs · · Score: 1

    The Airport drivers in stand alone Darwin are binary only, and I don't think there's even any way to confiqure them (yet).

    But Linux users on the new x86 Macs should be able to use the ndis wrapper with the Windows drivers. (Thats's assuming Apple stays with the same broadcom chips for their WiFi of course).
