Top 10 Mac OS X Tweaks

May 19, 2007 Soft | Comment on this post

Lifehacker presents its Top 10 Mac OS X Tweaks

Mac OS X is a great operating system out of the box, but a few simple customizations can make it even better. OS X ships with some odd and sometimes inconvenient default settings, and it’s got a few nifty little perks for power users who enable them, no third-party software required.

Article is very good for people new to Mac OS X.

Mac Pro: 8-core versus 4-core

April 28, 2007 Mac Pro | Comment on this post

Apple Mac Pro Quad-core (8-core) is compared to its predecessor Mac Pro 4-core. Some really interesting results can be found here. Over all 8-core performance is quite impressive, however some results are quite disappointing:

When we ran Photoshop CS3 and Aperture 1.5, Activity Monitor showed all 8-cores cranking (up to 796% usage) but the total time to complete the task was barely faster than with the 4-core Mac Pro. A bit depressing when the Activity Monitor registers 796% CPU usage on the 8-core versus 395% usage on the 4-core, yet the total time to complete the task is only 0% faster in the case of Photoshop CS3 and only 7% faster in the case of Aperture.

Happy birthday Apple II!

April 18, 2007 Computers, History, News | 3 comments

Apple IIThis day, 30 years ago, Apple II was introduced.  Apple II was the first mass-produced consumer oriented computer.

Apple II had 8 bit processor working at 1 MHz, 4K of RAM, and an audio cassette interface in a low profile case with an integrated keyboard. The Apple II came fully assembled and ready to use. 

Look of Apple II was the result of Steve Jobs’ passion for form. Internal engineering was pure Steve Wozniak brilliance. Through heavy use of clever software and hardware tricks, Woz was able to keep the chip count, and therefore the cost, of manufacturing the Apple II very low. The system was designed to attach to a television with the aid of a device called a RF modulator. The system could be expanded to hold as much as 48K of ram and contained BASIC in ROM.

Jeremy Mehrle and his MacsJeremy Mehrle is a man with extraordinary hobby. He collects Macs.

He literally has 100 of them, ranging from the original Macintosh with 128KB RAM to the 20th-anniversary Mac from 1997. Can’t believe it? Well, check out Jeremy Mehre Mac gallery on Flickr and Jeremy’s own website.

The fun part about his hobby is that computer do not simply sit there in his basement. They are very nicely arranged, and they actually function entertaining their owner and his guests.
