Shawn Chen, Taipei; Jessie Shen, DigiTimes.com [Tuesday 6 December 2005]
Intel processors will be initially adopted in Apple Computer's entry-level Macintosh PC lineup, including the Mac Mini, iBook, and iMac series, with a launch in Taiwan slated for June 6 2006, according to sources at Taiwan PC distributors.
Apple Taiwan declined to comment on the report, noting that the launch schedule would be released according to the company's official statement.
Apple said earlier that the company would deliver new Macintosh computers using Intel microprocessors by June of next year and transition all of its Macs to using Intel chips by the end of 2007.
Rumors have circulated that a test version of Apple's Mac OS X Tiger version 10.4.1 for an Intel-powered Macintosh has been released for limited testing. Apple is expected to unveil its new Macintosh PCs with the 'Intel Inside' logo on January 9 of next year, when Macworld 2006 takes place in San Francisco from January 9 to 13, sources at domestic PC makers indicated.
A November 30 Reuters report cited Citigroup analyst Richard Gardner as saying that Apple may launch its first Intel-based PowerBook as early as January.

O
lol, stargazr, I don't think switching the processor itself counts for much of the production costs in a Mac, the unique form factors, OS production, and various other things just drive the costs up..
I'm sure they get quite a bit of profit too lol. Oh well, I'm not complaining

Your guess is as good as mine.
Though I would imagine the average Windows user would be just as cold to the idea of Mac OS X as ever before. *shrug*
The x86 transition in itself introduces a lot of silliness, like the price complaints I *KNOW* are going to happen -- from who, I'm not too sure, probably just the general people I talk about this sort of stuff with in and out of class, depending.
"Why should I pay $xx for a mac with XX and XX when a Dell costs $uu for XX and XX too?"
Of course the obvious answer would be to tell them to look at the two machines up close and they'd figure out the difference, but who does that?
I only began to see it as funny when some Thinkpad owners complained the same thing: Would they have gotten a low end model instead of their T43 for $800 less if it had the same specs but was 1.5" and had the most gaudy engineering? Doubtful.
Then again, opinions, opinions. I'll take a pot shot and say that as usual, if x86 was available on your best buy shelves and maybe even marketed as such..
"I Hear MAC has less programs"
"Does my antivirus work with it?"
"It isn't as secure"
"They aren't compatible with the internet"
and insert other hairbrain ideas here
Unfortunately for the brave few mac fans (myself included) we're doomed. Doomed I tell ya! Doomed since 1984!

This is what Google Search AI says:
No such command exists. The idea that typing a secret command into MS-DOS or 86-DOS will display Gary Kildall's name or a copyright notice is a long-standing urban legend. [1, 2, 3]
The Legend vs. The Facts
- The Claim: A popular story (often attributed to writer Jerry Pournelle) claimed that Gary Kildall personally demonstrated that MS-DOS contained stolen CP/M code by typing a hidden command that revealed Kildall's name. [1]

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

We were up in Pigeon Forge, TN a month ago and we couldn't get anything on our phones to work on mobile data...the Ookla speed test app couldn't even do a speed test. I have an older 13 and went into my settings and turned off the 5G, making it use LTE exclusively....did a speed test of over 300mbps so obviously the 5G bands were overwhelmed. Anyway, tried to do the same thing on my Wife's 15 and the cellular data options tab simply wasn't there. Any of you run into this? We've on Verizon

Ok, I'm bored .... actually - to be more precise - I'm bored of eating the same rotation of 9 or 10 meals that are currently my "go-to" meals. My wife works the long hours - I work from home as and when i feel like it ... which means i generally do most of the cooking ... and so by default - i also make out the shopping list ...
We cook at home 5 or even 6 nights a week - but we always seem to fall back on the same old tried and tested "quick and easy but tastes ok" meals. Week in week out.
Pot Roast - mash and Peas.
Spaghetti
Chicken Pasta in cheese sauce.
Curry & rice
(these are some of mine)
Now it's not that I'm not adventurous in the kitchen ... I'll try anything once or twice ... but we all do it. Unless your name is Martha Stewart or Rachel Ray .. we all eventually fall back on our 8-10 favorite "meals"
So i thought - if we shared some of our own go-to meals with each other ... we might be able to add a few "new" ones to our own arsenal of meals.
So again - I ask you ...
What's for dinner tonight ?
Please give me something new to add to my rotation ... its our weekly shop tomorrow - so i want to pull together a few idea's and try and eat a meal each day next week that I've never had before .. or at least something that is not on my current "go-to" meal plan.
What meal do you always seem to fall back on in your house ? Maybe its something that I've never tried or not had in a while. I need inspiration !! I've got a blank shopping list in front of me - and nothing sounds good .. HELP !

Smoked some salmon on the grill while enjoying some Blue Moon beer. Kinda cool tonight so I fired up the heaters. Here in FL, we fire up heaters once the temps get below 60 
As for the salmon, I seared them first, then flipped them off to the side not over the coals and brushed on some lemon pepper marinade followed by some salmon seasoning. Threw some hickory chips on the coals and then closed the vents to about 10% airflow. Yum.
