| reply to sporkme said by sporkme :said by The Dv8or :]I think its because of the feature that if you remove the side, the computer goes to sleep. Mine doesn't. If I remove the plastic shield though, the fans go full rev, but I think that's outside of the operating system's control. BTW, I was just "insanely curious" as to what the dev boxes would look like inside. I think we can safely assume that the "G6" or whatever it will be called will bear no resemblance to this monstrosity. i would imagine it would go back down to G3/G4 tower proportions -- Visit my - somewhat less than awesome website at thewiz.mine.nu:1984 |

I think maybe they will come up with something new and move away from the "G" series. And are they even going to call them powermacs and powerbooks anymore, since they won't be powerpc based, we shall see. Very possible this will turn into an all new generation of apple designs. -- I support the RIAA |

1 edit | reply to sporkme Intel Inside Logos on Mac? Also, It looks like the cinema display doesnt work with Windows on a Mac, but works with Windows just fine on a normal PC. Maybe its just that monitor, if we would use a different monitor, I guess dualbooting Windows and MacOS wont be bad. |

| reply to sporkme Holy crap, I can't believe some people think its important to have different colored mobos, or nicely arranged mobos. It looks the way it is because engineers thought it was the most efficient setup, not because they thought it looked nice. Its a mobo for heavens sake! When I look at parts for my next pc, I don't see color or how it looks, I look for function. |

It says they couldn't achieve above 800x600 because Windows didn't have drivers for the wacky video card in the machine. -- They sell us lies - But we will not be deceived.
