The Mac has MANY uniqe advantages (too long to list herer) that make it a far better computer for many people than the competition. I don’t see how you come to that conclusion. > “It is getting more and more confusing why someone should buy a Mac” However, because market sahre is such a misleading number… no wonder you like to propigate it. THe OSes install base has never been higher. The global “market share” of OS X is 2.3 % and yes… it is dropping… however… its install base is growing by leaps and bounds. “The global market share for Mac OS X is about 0.5% and falling.” Regardless, most people don’t *choose* Windows… its thrown upon them. Market share doesn’t tell us anmything other than sales for 1 quarter… it doesn’t show the ratio of users for a particular market. > “And the market share numbers attest to this.” Wuh? Considering the fact that of nearly all areas where Apple competes it is leaps and bounds ahead of Windows and Linux… its obvious you’re just a troll. > “It is clear Apple is just about moving backwards compared to Windows and Linux.” In any event, these computers will be equipped with a G5 soon enough… I believe the iMac will be first (In the next few months) and the powerBook after that when the PPC970 goes to. Every claim thaey made thus far has been right on the money.Īre you thinking that it can’t or that it wont? In either case Apple never promised either… sore your liar accusations are completely baseless. Its heat consumption is high, but MUCH lower than comperable processors of similar power. > “For all of Apple’s *total lies* regarding the PPC970’s low power and heat consumption” The progress that has been made has been nothing short of remarkable. > “The overall showing by Apple during “the year of the G5″ so far has been pathetic.”Ĭonsidering the fact that the PPC970 still eads the cosumer desktop arena in speed and is on par with all high-end workstations… I’d say you are wrong. It lends credibility to the notion that we can expect a G5 in a laptop sometime inthe future…It shows that the PPC970 has the ability tcale very well. A G5 in a blade server configuration is a major advancement. ![]() ![]() > “A few one-processor Xserve G5’s hardly count.” That was major progress.Ĭonsidering the fact that the competition hasn’t done anything within the same time period… at worst they are on par with the industry… at best they are making steady progress. And basically, that is all Apple has shipped on PPC970 for a year.”ĭon’t forget the XServe based on 90nm process. In three months, it will be a year since Jobs introduced the “G5″. I don’t have a problem looking beyond their past and giving credit where credit is due. MOSR appears to have learned from its past mistakes and has been reporting rumors with as much reliability as any of the other major rumor sites. “It looks like everything that crazy guy at MacOSRumors writes these days is completely made up.”
