This seems logical but OS X in it's current state isn't remotely 64-bit clean. Not to mention the major reason for most people going 64-bit is just for addressing more than 4gb of memory. I also...

I think randman had a good idea. Right now I wouldn't spend a large sum of cash on a PB. Currently apple has a bit of a crux. The PB although heavy in features is lacking in battery power, and cpu...

I understand what you are saying, and the P4 was my desktop machine before I bought my 1Ghz Powerbook (new). I was just trying to point out my old P4 as a performance reference. Now, most modern...

Quite honestly if you *really* want a laptop I'd get a Pentium-M, unless you absolutely had to have OSX. If you have the money the iBook and nice PC option would probably be a nice bet, assuming you...

The keyboard marks seem to be prominent on the Ti series. My 15" Ti 1Ghz was horribly marked up with a keyboard image until I had the screen replaced due to white spots. However, my brothers Rev A....

I bounced around the net looking for a sata adapter for my Ti 1Ghz. I found the SATA-CB01-MAC but I can't find any reviews or distributors. Does anyone have any experience with this card? I was...

IIRC an Opteron with the intel compiler (assuming you force it to compile as a genuine intel) will give you the best performance. Sun also makes some very nice dual opteron systems with incredible...

7200rpm review (http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/IDE/hitachi_travelstar60GB_7200/travelstar60GB_7200rpm.html)

It seems to be ok. I really need it for lower access times due to my heavy data-set/DB use.

Performance wise I believe the hitachi 60gb 7200rpm 2.5" is the best bet for current PB's. I forgot how much cache it had, I believe 16mb? I think it's about $220, and I hope to pick one up soon...

I think you should really look at your data in groups of value. Then use a tape back-up or similar solution to periodically backup these groups ass needed.

I think your real situation is the ram. Most game pauses are caused by paging, Warcraft III even pauses with less than 640MB of ram.

What is your upgrade cycle? I buy a new PB every two years and will probably buy one post WWDC. If you buy a PB or G5 now, and plan to upgrade within two to three years you should be fine. ...
