It's good to see you will be at the event! I take it from the above that Glaurung doesn't take advantage of 64-bit or the above wouldn't be true. Speaking of which -- what's your take on Apple's latest move? G5 is a nice workhorse and it had even MORE potential that was unused with its 64-bit. Now that Apple has made a deal with Intel for these Pentium-M dual-cores, where does that leave any hopes for 64-bit applications? Unless they want to produce two sets, I don't see any easy solution. Apple is always big on "standardization" so I don't imagine "special G5 versions" of software is an option. But who wants to buy a Porsche and fill it with crappy gas? See you Saturday, -elc.
