Your Mac Hardware Setup

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)

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
    • If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!
    • After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in many areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
