What Bunsen said.
Anyway, this is not an iPhone, iPod or iPad forum, or even an Intel Mac forum. Its a vintage Mac forum, and it'll stay that way until the iPhone shows up on Appl…
I know it's a radical concept, but you can be active on two forums at once.

When I log out of this forum, I cease to exist, only until I log in again.

iPhones are supported all over the interwebs. 68k Macs, not so much. There's no need to start another…
I know that this forum is meant to be for 68k Macs, but I thought that since you have PPC Mac sections, you should have an iPhone section. What do you guys think?
In some senses, it could be said that the '90s were Microsoft's decade, and the '00s were Apple's. In the '90s, Apple struggled to even tread water in market share and profitabili…
Such lists are easily obtained from magazine archives on Nexis. However, they should not be taken too literally. They tend to be aggregations of press releases, and actual products…
Be really interesting if it could be made to the look like the mac os completely with highlight on click for the navigation buttons or even drop down menus. Would need rounded/beve…
I saw an old review of a prototype G4 upgrade from Daystar that had 2m cache vs 1m cache in the production model and the results weren't impressive. Running about 20 apps and bench…
Apple's devious plan for incorporating binary emulation seamlessly into the existing Mac OS was very clever, but it also meant they wasted loads of effort making a new CPU act like…
One thing I will take issue with is (emphasis mine)

I don't have any major disagreement with any of those points (except one point below); they're certainly well-taken, and PReP/CHRP certainly had much squandered potential. My main …

I can't comment on the '060 (though I do like ColdFires), but remember that there were *three* people in the AIM alliance, not just Apple and Motorola. That big blue gorilla was co…
The point about the comparison between the m68060 and the Pentium is that the m68060 would've scaled quite well had Motorola had reason to continue improving it (that is, if Apple …

Remember, the m68060 was able to execute more average instructions per clock than the Pentium in spite of having a 32 bit bus as compared with the Pentium's 64 bit bus and in gener…
We're not talking about the latest versions that are still being made today, though. We are talking about the chips that were actually produced back when the design was new and tho…
... how do you think they replaced the functionality of those components? They had to go off chip to get that functionality back or else who would have any use for a crippled EC or…
