Re: New G5s announced
New isn't the word I'd use to describe these machines. The high end just got an 8% speed increase...woohoo.
dual-layer dvd doesn't excite me all that much either. |

Re: New G5s announced
I agree. G5s are still great machines, but I'm underwhelmed by these improvements.
It doesn't stop me from wanting one, though.

Re: New G5s announced
Whew, other than instantly losing about $500 in value, it looks like my dual 2.5Ghz isn't on the "nearly obsolete" list yet...!

Re: New G5s announced
Did you see Apple's claim that the dual 2.7 gHz can run 199 simultaneous reverbs in Logic!?!? And the dual 2.0 can still run 182.
That's dang impressive...can anybody (lwilliam?) give me an idea if that is anywhere in the ballpark of how many d-verbs/realverbs/other verbs that a dual 2.5 can run in PT LE? That is some serious horsepower, fer sher. I may have to finally let go of my trusty B&W G3 and get one of these suckers... Later and good day, kc |

Re: New G5s announced
Thanks, H! Great thread...exactly the kind of real-world info I was looking for.
Now, what can I do for my wife that will make her demand that I go to the Apple store this instant and get the dual 2.7 and a 23" cinema display... Thanks, again. kc |
