a G5....?

no offence dude, but the G5 is a PowerPC architecture, not x86, you can't run Windows on it..... you want an Intel PowerMac, wait till August....

well, if someboy able to boot WinXp on a G5 it will worth more than USD13000.

can what? ever heard of virtualpc?

aiyoh.... that's emulation.... it's nowhere near the real thing....

u know what's the different of boot-up and emulated? VPC sucks.

My mistake that didnt write properly, should write clearer. I meant G5 Intel Powermac since there is no name for it.

you're still wrong here.... G5 is native to IBM PowerPC...., on Intel platform, there's no such thing as G5... nor a G6....

Ok ok, what ever you all want to call it. Just let me have a name for it, I am not too particular in this.

I am just trying to say Intel equivalent G5 powermac, or anyone kind to explain to Eithanius or Wei.

just Intel PowerMac will do..... simple as that....

Apple might even name it ProMac....

anyone trying it? LOL

sadly..., i don't have an intel mac to spare....

Here are some of the facts :-


1. There is no native graphics card drive for ATI Readon [so you can't play games yet]

2. It seems that there are some issues with the battery [ weird...]

3. You still need OSX to boot Windows XP [oh yeah]

Of course the good news , is that its in work in progress...So , i dont see any good reasons running XP on a Mac...Hopefully those guys over at WINE and Darwine find a way to run Windows Games on top of OSX..Then I would be even happier..[Intel macs , of course]..At least I dont have to boot to Windows

P.S - I am not using an Intel Mac

The G6 (IBM PowerPC 980) processor already exists if im not mistaken...

don't~
c'mon, take care of your Imac, don't let disgusting windows tarnish it.

for me apple is mac, buy pc la for windos usage

I don't know why they bother, since you'll be able to install Windows Vista on a mac anyways...

yes it has.... G6 is based on IBM Power5, and Power7 is already slated for development....

Vista....? i don't think so.... Intel's logic board for Mac supports EFI, while Microsoft recently announced that Vista will not support it.... they're sticking back to BIOS.....

Well guys, for those who have new Intel iMac/MacBook Pro may wanna try to have WinXP on their Mac :

some smart guys already managed to make the intel mac to dual-boot.

mac and windows.

but there are still hiccups though.

http://onmac.net

we have someone in the myMUG who demonstrated dual-boot on his Acer Celeron 1.3.

So... basically, he's running Mac OS X on a PC ... AND running Windows XP on a different partition.

come mon ....Whats the point of doing tht! if wan just get the virtual pc!

heard of PC also got macox emulator available lar !

Yeah, doing the same.. it is quite easy actually, the setup process is even easier than setting up XP from scratch.

Emulators = Slow. End of story.
