Mac Users Of Mtc (apple: Go Ahead, Take A Bite!)


Recommended Posts

1. You are welcome.

 

2. 10.6 will not outwardly have any new features relative to 10.5. All the changes will be underneath. Critics will say it is a cleaned-up version of 10.5 which has undergone several patches--not as much as any Windows OS but we are still at 10.5.4. On the other hand, I look forward to it cleaned-up version or new version because I am curious about how much more faster and reliable it will be as Apple claims.

 

3. I know that a few new things inside will be:

 

  • Support for Ms Exchange Server--admittedly a better system for pushing information to your devices.
  • True 64-bit memory support -- up to a theoretical 16 terabytes
  • A an OS with a higher level of awareness of multi-core processors with OS hooks that will allow software developers to write their programs to be not just multi-core aware but multi-core efficient.
  • Open CL, which is a language-based facility for software developers (note: I said developers, not programmers. Developers are people who design a program. Programmers are merely hired donkeys who are suppose to write the code to the specification of the designer) to be able to more directly address and control today's powerful GPUs.

My take on this? I'll try it out of course but I am even more excited by the kind of apps developers will come up with for an OS like this. A good OS will help spawn really impressive apps. That is the test.

 

nice,i'll wait for a legit release :)

 

thanks

I just learned the sad news that Ynzal is no longer an authorized Apple reseller. :(

 

Where else can I go for repairs and tech support? Thanks.

 

Yes, it is sad. They are long-time friends. But I am sure that this group will survive. They might even surprise us. Their tech support is still there. It is a source of official Apple parts that may now be difficult, but these guys have a good network on the internet and even parts that Apple only sells as part of a module or assembly can be sourced by them.

 

This is not a new situation to them. These guys are survivors.

boomouse,

 

Does that mean Ynzal can't service Apple units anymore?

 

They have a good crew that knows Mac hardware inside and out. Parts are also readily available on the internet. In fact, now that they do not have a obligations to Apple, they can now openly supply parts that you can only buy from Apple in whole, expensive modules. For example, an inverter card for an LCDis about P5k but apple does not sell it. You have to buy the entire LCD screen module.

Hi Boom ! What's the maximum memory that I can put on my mac book (intel based) ? 2 GB or 4 GB ? Does it required to run in pairs ? Because what i see on apple's website, they are sold in pairs. Thanks ! ^_^

 

Macbooks (and MBPs) have two SOdimm slots. They do not have to be populated in pairs. Those with the pre-Santa Rosa chips (2.16 GHz and below) can max at 3GB, after that it is 4GB.
