Very nice pics, indeed.   Good to finally see a pic of the dual cpu board.  Now if they can just get all this stuff together and out to the shops to buy!  (Patience, I know)

The new pic also has a rom in the socket next to the PCI slots, anyone know what that is for?  It's not in any of the previous pics.  (OS4 rom maybe?? or Artica fix rom? or ???)

The ROM is actually the BIOS. These boards don't need any "April", "March" or whatever fix. They have the new sillicon revision of the Articia S chipset.


Ahh... PPC Boot?    I thought that was already there somewhere else, but that would make sense.  Yeah, I remember reading now that the new board would have the revised Artica chip.

Now about those benchmarks... Very interesting.  Did you use dual cpu's for that?    Just curious.  I'm sure OS4 will do as well or better.

If you have a Mac, just try one day to do: Apple + O + F at the start of your Mac.


Umm... Would that be "New World Macs"? ;)
