02-28-06 / 11:30 PM : Mac mini Intel / ipod hifi (cjed)
The main news today is Apple shipping the Intel Mac Mini. Very powerful, it however does not fit well for games due to the Intel integrated video chipset (G950, 64 Mo memory taken from main memory, slower). About the ipod hifi, in fact a dock for ipod (accepts all dockable models, or the first ipod model through an audio input), Apple does not mention the RMS power, nor the harmonic distorsion. The frequency range is also tiny in high range. For 379 euros, we can find better in the same price range, for example Behringer monitors (175 euros each) on Playback.

Audiofanzine forwarded this news about the ending of the Requiem de Mozart, discovered in the Rio Janeiro archives. Composed by Sigismund Neukomm (1778 - 1858), we can now listen to a performance. Some samples are provided through the link.

Some busy guys achieved running Windows XP on Intel mac, through Linux/VMware ! That is here. It seems performances put to a shame Virtual PC results we are used to.

It is so far impossible to follow each new release on soundsonline forums. It's probably the most productive place for 'non professional" composers. Last but not, our french co member Lionel Bansept (and his singer Cécile) made public a new song :
Old Irishman.

02-15-06 / 12:59 AM : OSx86 10.4.4 Security Broken (cjed)
Few weeks after the shippment of first public MacIntel, the now famous OSX86Project site reports the existence of a preliminary patch allowing installation of OSX 10.4.4 on regular PC fitted with SSE2 technology. Despite system code obfuscation, Apple might not have put so much efforts (probably with some reasons) to avoid this manipulation, since the previous Intel version of MacOSX. That is a "good thing" !

02-11-06 / 04:57 PM : Virtualization : key to Apple success ? (cjed)
We now it since Apple Intel switch, the later will implement soon virtualization in its chips. That is, dispatching CPU execution in logical units, seen as independant processors from intalled systems. It is common in MVS mainframes. Macnn provides some clues.
