Hello and a Happy New Year!
One step forward, two back, but synonymous, that is one of Apple actually not used :-(
The new Intel chips really seem to need little power, so that you can pack two (cores) into a laptop ... s.wie long the battery under normal applications really thinks, one must first see time ...?
Faster than the old G4 they are already (especially the front-side bus) ... but it was surely no great feat, or!
And the biggest step back: The "new" processors are 32bit only! Yes, you heard right, 32bit, with 64bit nothing more ... or how the new Cell processor of IBM, 128bit (the) kommmt in the PS3.
But difficult times I hope that the chip does not come into the PowerMacs! The Cell of IBM would be better off as well, especially since the bills are particularly suitable for vector and would therefore be ideal for video editing and effects! (A quad-cell Powermac running as smooth as HD and SD is a little dream .... well be allowed ;-)

Time you read this:
http://www.bernd-leitenberger.de/neubeginn-bei-64-bit.html
Das Update für die Mac Books Pro war lange überfällig and insbesondere hier ist Apple nun mind. 3 Schritte vorangekommen. Wen interessiert da 64 Bit, denn synonymous in dem mobilen Calculator bekommst Du nicht mehr als 4 GB (2 passen da glaube ich rein), so daß es also keine Rolle spielen dürfte.
Weiterhin, da bin ich mir aber nicht 100% ig sicher, meine ich irgendwo gelesen zu haben, dass MAC OS 10.4 noch immer kein reines 64 Bit OS ist, da nur Teile davon auf der Comando Zeilenebene with 64 Bit Bandbreite arbeiten - no preference was Steve in seiner PR Trommel verkündet hat. Von daher macht das synonymous aus diesem Grund im Moment keinen Sinn.
In die Powermacs soll wohl der Merom kommen, den Intel aber erst Mitte des Jahres vorstellen will (http://business.tomshardware.de/facts/20051205/intels_prozessorplaene_roadmap-02.html). This chip is capable of processing 64 bits, and so far is perhaps synonymous as far as the software that they can deal with the benefits. Few are but so far have more than 4GB in the calculator (even in the macs) and those who really need 64 bit (database applications, etc. are usually not a Mac anyway, and working) with other operating systems.

is it true that some programs on the new MacBook Pro will not run, so avid zb?
Antwort von friendlyschmidi:
I would like to buy the MacBook Pro I do not know if there Programs such as Adobe PS CS2, Apple Final Cut Pro, Adobe After Effects, ... run.
Has anyone there for more information.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance. No, not yet run - until the next generation of Adobe programs on the Intel-based Macs to run - at the moment gibts at all and therefore Programs for the Mac community synonymous some anger about the great new hardware that is pretty useless without software .
