    12 core macs coming?

    I said they may be the best cases on the market. I have not run across better myself yet. I have never seen any others made all out aluminum like these have you?

    12 core macs coming?

    And that is not who the mac pro is aimed at either and you know better than that. Most of the people buying that level of computer are more than likely going to use it for some heave duty processing like it was designed for. If they bought that type of computer for surfing the web then they are...

    Bipole or Monopole for Rear Surround in 5.1

    Yes Bose are poor for many reasons and not a good example to use for bi/dipole except maybe for the 901's. Let me explain further. At the time( 97/98) I had Mirage towers for the front and mirage SB somethings in the rear. The towers were a dual 6.5 bipoles and the rears were a dual 5 1/4's...

    hackintosh anyone?

    What is interesting is Apple freaks out when a company makes hardware that can run their OS, but they seem to ignore people who hack OS X to run on other hardware. Weird. Really at this point in time they should just bring out a version of OS X that runs on other hardware than their own. I know...

    Bipole or Monopole for Rear Surround in 5.1

    I had a mirage system with dolby pro logic and the bipole rears were great. When I moved to a true 5.1 the dipoles just never sounded quite right. You have to look at it like this. In a 5.1/7.1 recording the sound engineer( if he or she is good) is trying to place certain sounds in the space at...

    12 core macs coming?

    I have worked on every PC brand there is and I have never ran across anything built like the MacPro's. Not even close. I have to very much disagree there.

    12 core macs coming?

    All computer manufactures sell computers that you could build yourself so it is not only Apple. I don't know why people always resort to comparing a DIY computer to an Apple. It is actually kind of weird. No PC manufacture takes the DIY crowd into their decision when making their products. The...

    hackintosh anyone?

    I have been reading about doing that. How does it run? Make sure you don't do the Apple software update or you will break it. Turn off auto updates.

    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Blu-ray Review

    I am honestly not a fan of this movie. I think that "House of Flying Daggers" is superior in every way cinematically. Cinematography in Tiger does not even come close to that in Daggers.

    12 core macs coming?

    He missed the FACT that I also said I read that they had a short time exclusive on the chip. I said I did not know if that was fact and was unconfirmed. But people who hate ignore stuff like that.

    12 core macs coming?

    No I don't either unless you are shooting a lot of wedding vids and need to get thing rendered fast or doing some freelance CGI work or something. I could see a power user pro photographer wanting one though. While I would love to win one or something even if I had the money I don't think I...

    12 core macs coming?

    Well they say 12 core starting at $4999 which seems pretty fair. Not sure clock speed in that system though. The cheapest dell 12 core was $4579 before I added anything and that was with the Dual Six Core Intel® Xeon® Processor X5650, 2.66GHz. The first price was for the fastest dual six core...

    12 core macs coming?

    Your kidding right? I just added the dual six core option and price was $6918 I stopped there.

    12 core macs coming?

    My question was still not answered though. Does anyone have 12 core systems that are priced less than these will be? Don't even start with building one yourself because that is not the question. I am sure if I had the tools and know how I could put together a car that was faster and preformed...

    12 core macs coming?

    Those seem to be older and don't have the same clock speeds. Also wicked expensive as well. Would cost you more to build a 12 core system than to get the Macpro. For those who need it, the Macpro looks to be a pretty good deal. These chips that Apple is using are supposed to be brand new by...

    12 core macs coming?

    I can't afford one but it would make a hell of a video workstation. http://www.apple.com/macpro/ I read they have an exclusive on the chip for at least a little while. That is unconfirmed though so don't take it as fact.
