Oh yes, if you hadn’t already heard, Apple have just released their first 64-bit processor. An event that is sure to make every design head across the world unite in a chorus of “Oooooo”, the inevitable dribbling and a spontaneous sliding off Aeron chairs in fits of Techlust.
And it’s a beauty.
In Techspeak, “The Power Mac G5 breaks the 4 gigabyte barrier and can use up to 8 gigabytes of main memory. The new G5 processor - available at speeds up to dual 2GHz with a new ultrahigh-bandwidth system architecture featuring AGP 8X and PCI-X - makes the Power Mac G5 a breakthrough in desktop processing power.”
In Suitspeak, “It’s cool.”
There are a load of other good reasons to buy one if you fancy one, or if not, just to check out the really-rather-nice product design. Go on, grab a tissue and have a sneak peak at: http://www.apple.com/powermac/
