PPC 970 is ALL the change
In my opinion, I think that we will see the 970 in both laptop and desktop form factors. This is based on the specs from IBM touting its power management and low (relatively) consumption. It will of course be a dual-processor and beyond capable chip, so Apple will have little problems adapting G4 SMP technologies to the new chip. Also, the 970 is a smaller chip overall, and supposedly generates less heat than current G4's (that remains to be seen by me, I'll believe it when I see it) so I don't think that it will represent as much of a technical challenge to adapt it over 2 form factors this quickly, especially not for such a notoriously good engineering team like Apple's. |
