New iMacs and Mac minis? Probably too early, cuz Santa Rosa ain't out yet.
Weird time of the day too. Maintenance?

Just beat me to it.
Too bad, I was thinking of pricing out a Mac mini or iMac.
Looks like the website is telling me to go to sleep...

What IS Santa Rosa.
It's an odd name for a chip. What is it? Is it the next Generation Merom? Does it come before or after Penryn?

It is not a CPU. It's the chipset.
Right now the iMac chipset is capable of utilizing 3 GB RAM, with a 667 MHz FSB.
Santa Rosa can use much more RAM, with an 800 MHz FSB. It also has a much improved integrated GPU design.

So what chipset does Yonah/Merom/Penryn belong to? They're starting a brand new chipset already?

No, "Santa Rosa" means "Centrino Pro". "Penryn", "Merom", and "Conroe" mean "Core 2 Duo".

Do you believe the processor is the only thing in the computer or what? We've already said Santa Rosa is not a CPU, but a chipset onto which one can put a CPU.
