The company explains that it is merely following the same path as Apple, after its upcoming Snow Leopard operating system was also revealed to be limited to Intel systems.... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/08/12/adobe.drops.powerpc/ Wed, 12 Aug 2009 18:50:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/21/apple.arm.cortex.job/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0905/armcortex.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Apple has posted a job listing that hints at the company's future hardware direction for the iPhone, iPod touch and possible other devices. The position for a High Perform/Low Level Programmer asks for someone familiar not only for programming assembly-level code for ARM processors, which Apple already uses in its handhelds, but for the NEON vector math units used in the newer Cortex architecture... http://www.macnn.com/articles/09/05/21/apple.arm.cortex.job/ Thu, 21 May 2009 14:10:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/11/07/papermaster.vs.ibm/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/macnn/news/0810/pdosml.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Mark's Papermaster's new role at Apple in no way represents a threat to IBM, according to new filings. Papermaster is to replace Tony Fadell at the head of Apple's iPod group, but has been accused of violating a non-compete agreement signed when he was employed by IBM, where he helped oversee chip design. In his formal response to IBM, Papermaster claims that Apple and IBM do not compete with ea... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/11/07/papermaster.vs.ibm/ Fri, 07 Nov 2008 22:00:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/10/21/mac.mini.shipments.halt/ <img align='left' src='http://electronista.macnn.com/content/0608/intelmacmini.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Apple is currently telling at least some retailers not to expect further Mac mini shipments, according to reports sent to Gizmodo. At least two "major" European outlets say they have been told by Apple not to anticipate more units of the small desktop and get the impression from their Apple sources that the system has been discontinued outright and isn't just encountering a temporary interruption... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/10/21/mac.mini.shipments.halt/ Tue, 21 Oct 2008 17:55:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/07/30/nvidia.candidate.for.mac/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0807/nvidiageforce9600mgt.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Apple's rumored non-Intel mainboard platform may primarily involve a change of suppliers to NVIDIA rather than any kind of custom development, PCPer suggests. The enthusiast site notes that Santa Clara, California-based NVIDIA has been developing its first nForce mainboard chipset for Intel-based notebooks, currently codenamed MCP79, with the aim of improving several weaknesses that have affected... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/07/30/nvidia.candidate.for.mac/ Thu, 31 Jul 2008 00:40:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/05/17/pa.semis.powerpc.chips/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/macnn/news/0804/pasemi.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Apple will reportedly offer legacy support for PA Semi's line of PowerPC-based processors following pressure from the government and clearing up rumors that surfaced after the chipmaker's acquisition by Apple last month. In effort to continue to push the chip power efficiency envelope, the Cupertino-based company purchased the microprocessor design company for nearly $300 million, but reports foll... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/05/17/pa.semis.powerpc.chips/ Sun, 18 May 2008 01:45:00 GMT
