Since it's unlikely you spent the last few months in
self-hypnosis by swinging your mouse back and forth, you probably
heard that ATI leaked information about Apple's new products before
Apple announced them. And you probably heard that Apple "punished"
ATI by removing all mention of their new Radeon chipset and using
the Rage 128 Pro in all the new Macs instead. But if you actually
read the offending statement, you might be left scratching your
head.
"In a keynote, wait for Apple to announce three new systems with
ATI graphics in them. One will be an iMac with the RAGE 4XL chip,
the remaining two are PowerMacs which will ship with RAGE 128 PRO
standard and Radeon."
"So, wait, one of the Power Macs, either the new
gigabit-ethernet G4 or the fanless G4 cube, was supposed to have
the trusty, if aging Rage 128 Pro anyway?" Well, the Cube is
supposed to be a gap-bridging model, not a true gaming machine,
since it only has a 7" AGP slot. Besides, why mess with the
elegance of silent computer by installing the Radeon card, a
graphics card with no less than . . . a fan!
