Hey man, the titanium powerbooks were awesome

>>55640603
What type of cable is that?
>>
>>55640620
MagSafe 2

>>55640528
No, the G5 was too big and power hungry for a laptop. Now IBM makes /v/ processors instead.

Who is IBM? Is it a part of Apple?

IBM was a contractor Apple used to produce CPUs during its PPC phase. They grew unreliable and were becoming obsolete which forced Apple into the arms of Intel.

You can't be fucking serious

When did IBM get an x86 license?

>>55641076
No fucking shit it's fake, thank you captain obvious.
>>
>>55640528
No because Women and Homosexuals don't like that design

They didn't?

They make Power based chips with power8 being the most recent isa.
>>
>>55641949
Are you retarded? POWER's an entirely different architecture, it has nothing to do with x86.
>>
>>55640620
>>55640640
It's actually just the MagSafe.

MagSafe 2 is wider and thinner.

When the 386 hit the stage.
>>
>>55642123
I know they used to have one, I was asking when they got one again. Anon said IBM makes /v/ processors now.
>>
>>55642144
up until the current generation the big three were all based on PPC or PPC-derived architectures
>>
>>55642203
Oh that makes more sense

I really wish they would have. The G4s were great or maybe a dual core G4 would have been cool. I think some guy on the Mac Rumors forums found a prototype 17" dual core G4.
>>
>>55640614
Yeah, I had mine for like a whole six months before the hinge cracked and the screen fell off.
And if I picked it up by one side, the battery fell out.
