Photos of Virginia Tech’s PowerMac G5 Cluster. UPDATE! Chaosmint’s notes about VT’s G5 cluster.
Seriously, Reuters (by way of Wired), call it by it’s name… Say it with me: “PowerBook G4.” Mmm… Next computer… (A is gonna kill me.)
Santa Clara, California-based Intel has said the PC market is not yet ready for 64-bit computing and lacks applications that will run on the chips. Which strikes my as funny, b/c the article focuses solely on Intel and AMD chips, not bothing to mention that Apple’s new G5 is a 64-bith processor and that Adobe […]
One of the things that is truly rockin’ about OS X is that it is (for all intents and purposes) FreeBSD 4.4. So it has been nice to switch to Mac and w/o having to fret over the kind of memory management woes that used to be so stymie’ing when “preferring” to use them at […]
so i successfully compiled and used GIMP (by way of fink and X11) last night. The iBook now has graphics, albeit a graphics program that will take a LOT of getting used to. Photoshop it ain’t — but it’ll have to do for now. Anyway, I must say that there’s nothing quite like watching the […]

But there’s this problem for Fink when one is running Virex 7.2 virus protection. Naturally, that’s the most up-to-date version of Virex. *sigh* […]
to be honest, i’m smitten with Apple’s Safari browser. I am, I admit it. For all the frustrating moments I’ve had with it, I think it has a lot of potential and really really want to see it succeed and come out on top as the premier browser for Mac. (Then with it being all […]
So I’ve been on my iBook about a month now and the verdict is in: good move. The caveats? I wish the software fr/ my PC was compatible. It’d ease the transition. But all in good time… The OS may be crash-proof (knock-on-polymer) but some of the apps are still buggy. Interestingly enough though, I’m […]
so when a got the iBook for me she also bought me a year of .Mac. So I get a 100 MB iDisk w/ the package, some limited web services, .Mac IMAP mail, and a few other perks. It’s kind of neat and a great idea but does fall a little short. First off, the […]
