QFT, but it still looks crap :rofl: (MY OPINION)

the blue taskbar and background looks.... :x get some themes working :D

nah i dont think so. :) it really suits great with the white case.

anyways, OSX looks so much better of course, but yea, i like xp on imac.

maybe it just looks "good" because its not seen every day (til now).

Sorry to break up the conversation. When not on my lap:

Desk: A vintage Anco Bilt Drafting table made of solid oak I believe. I would like to refinish it soon.

Computer: 12" 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4

Cell: Sony Ericsson w600i

Headset: Plantronics Voyager 510

You find out how bad telephone frequency bandwidth is when you listen to iTunes on that thing. Nasty!

Does anyone else think we should have full or near full frequency when talking on the phone?

The newest additions to the family is the - a PowerMac QuadCore:

  • 4x 2.5Ghz G5 Cores
  • 500gb Primary HD
  • 250gb Secondary HD
  • NVidia GT6800 256MB RAM
  • 2.5GB DDR2 RAM

And no - I don't really need all that power, but why the hell not ;) :laugh: :cool:

If it turns out to be 64bit, which im pretty sure it will be, then my god, it will be something to write down in history...

Don't count Intel releasing 64 bit chips. Apple went 1 step backwards when switching to Intel and this could hurt them further. Heck Intel's Mac processors are not supporting 64 bit while their desktops are, which is quite strange and Intel dual cores are not that great of an offering.

The Intel iMacs are stuck at 4GB of RAM while the G5s could use more than 4GB. Too bad Apple didn't go green with AMD.

The Intel iMacs are stuck at 4GB of RAM while the G5s could use more than 4GB. Too bad Apple didn't go green with AMD.

The iMac G5 could only go up to 2.5gb...or are you saying that G5s are able to take more ram if they wanted it?

The Intel iMacs have a limit of 2GB, the G5 iMacs have the same limitation. Ram capacity is based on the mobo not the chip....

you got part of it right and part wrong, if the chip is 32 bit the max is 4gb and much higher if the chip is 64bit......but as you said if the mobo only supports 2gb than it wont handle more (even if it's 64bit)

    • Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
