It’s actually insane how well the engineers at Apple made this look beautiful while also making it incredibly thermal efficient due to the G5. I miss this Apple. They never compromised.
This presentation is 21 years old as I type this comment.... Even in these "Apple is hip again days" it is amazing to see how many numbers they threw at people. Granted it was WWDC, but the last WWDC was 2023 and aside from a few things regarding graphics and specs, it was mostly aimed at the idea of, "it's so simple!" You'd think, 20 years on, humans would be more adapted to tech, but it turns out selling tech to people is getting harder and harder. You really have to almost pick up someone else's finger, place it on the touch screen and then look at their eyes and say, "did you see how it reacted?" And yet you still have a 50/50 chance of them saying, "yeah".
Let me just stop for a second and tell you, regardless of my ill feelings towards Apple and its practices in general, that 8gbs of ram was *M A S S I V E* in 2003. Like, 256gb of ram today.
Even 4GB are huge in 2003. Actually his main concern is because G5 is first 64 bit desktop processor, it can go beyond 4GB barrier in 32 bit desktop processor that mainstream at that time. So he mentioned it so many times just for people can aware that
Remember, when Apple makes a new design for their product, it’s the most amazing design ever, and when Apple puts something new in the old design, it’s incredible how they fit all this technology in rhetorical same familiar package.
seriously? are you sure? they put it up against a shitty pentium 4 which was slower then the amd athlon 64 back then and they are barely beating out the pentium 4 dual xeon system out it shows how blind they were back then which shows why they shifted to intel a couple years later

My g5 sounds like it might take off

How about 1.5TB of RAM in the new Mac Pro?

lol 8gb back then is like 64gb today. the BIG deal was moving to a 64bit architecture.
It's kind of wild seeing the transfer speed of the RAM back then being the speed of medium to fast SSDs these days.

Back when Apple still admitted that their processor might be slower at something.

Steve, Should we put it in here?
Audience, Yeah!
Steve, No.
Tim cook will sell you the handle itself for $999
And you’ll buy
3:09 power mac
@comneard2 well no one can really but theoretically the memory can send it to the processor in 1 sec
Got one of these, boxed, in someone's garbage.
It is, indeed, quiet.
I miss those days when Apple shipped 'Pro Desktop' computers with just under a $2000 price tag.
and they were actually pro, impressive specs for the time
Mac Pro 2019: Hold my beer.
The Dell supported ECC memory, the G5 didn't (in 2003).
2003 Apple: IBM has an amazing future
2005 Apple: It’s True, we’re switching to Intel
The FASTEST PC money can buy!
1:53 Apple in 2023 still offer 8GB RAM 🤣, finally they up the standard to 16GB in 2024
Who's watching this on a g5?
Back when you can use Nvidia cards in a Mac.
Now Apple desktop computers are three times as expensive as PC counterparts.
No you are wrong. The Mac Pro 2019 is actually over $2000 cheaper than a comparable Dell Precision 7920 or HP Z8 G4.
