well it was close? i mean apple = bondi

Im not 100% sure on how they do it at Apple.
one thing though is the FSB is always half the speed of the Proc.
So when they release the 3Ghz the FSB will be 1.5Ghz per processor

I wonder of Doom3 will come out for Apple?

Well the new Apple G5 is here they have done away with the 1.6Ghz proc and now the base version is a Dual 1.8Ghz. the new top of the line is a Dual 2.5Ghz this thing is going to be a beast. it even comes standard with a Liquid Cooling system the new 2.5Ghz system now sports a 1.25Ghz FSB per proc. :...

Wells its no surprise that a 64bit proc out performs a 32bit like the current P4s

There is an option for windows printing
Provided the printer is shared you should be ok?

In Telkoms defence.... Damn I have never defended them before....
International Banndwith is pretty pricy but hey I cant see why they cant slowly up the cap to say 4 or 5 gigs at least it would be a start.

When you get capped they probably do give you 64k..... you and every other capped adsl user can you imagine having a few thousand people sharing a 64k line? it would be like an asthmatic hamster sucking a cork through a hose pipe

With all the moves apple are making, I can only guess that they are geeting ready to seriously get back onto every desk possible. We here in SA will probably be the last to see it sadly. Its also cool that they are getting into other markets like with the iPod and of course iTunes. sure not everyone...

he did?

There is no doubt that Linux is one hell of an OS. I don't think that anyone can take that away from it. But Bondi does have a point, about it being a great server OS and not much of a desktop OS. Sure for most of us folks here on the PCF forum we would do well enough. However would you want to put ...

stopped listening to the radio about 5 years ago

there is no good music.

12 disc shuttle in car
shoutcast streaming audio in the office
lots of music at home.

no need for radio stations. never mind the music the constant adverts are also a pain.

just going to list my gaming box

Current Car Nissan Maxima 3l V6

dream car not sure way to many to want.
would love the new 3.5l V6 6speed Maxima in the USA but if it ever gets here it will probably only be in a few years time

the main thing to remember here is simply that microsoft will never mail out a patch. as I am sure that no other OS maker would.
they might tell you about it, but thats where it stops.

ok thats it im not helping you anymore its way to complicated now

what if you just buy 2 nics and a cross over cable or a cdr or something?
IR file transfer? esp would be easier to get working

Btw - I definitely formatted it in FAT - not NTFS. Should it be FAT 32?

(sorry Brab - did not see ur post)
