Go up one level in this thread


Hello Andreas,

I had a little question, maybe Sandro knows, we could read that in Paderborn and
in Leiden Stefan played with his Mac version, and that Gravis actually sponsored
him with the machine:

(Sorry folks, only in German but the text is easily translatable I think)

But did Stefan Meyer-Kahlen not optimize Deep Shredder for 64-bit yet on the G5?
Stefan writes he got the machine from Gravis long in advance to optimize his
program, so it would seem plausible he already made a 64bit version? Or would
that not run on regular Macs, so Mac owners will then probably not get this
version? I have no idea about the latest Apple developments, I only know Apple
decided to switch to Intel chips instead of IBM, does that apply to the G5
already or is that still IBM architecture?

I thought that was the reason Sandro had to ask permission from Stefan, as this
probably is also the machine Shredder will be running in Turin in May WCCC, I
would think Shredder is already well optimized for this computer.

 Regards, Eelco
