actually.... no.
This is what System Profiler had to say about my video card:
ATY,RV280M9+:
Type: display
Bus: AGP
VRAM (Total): 32 MB
Vendor: ATI (0x1002)
Device ID: 0x5c63
Revision ID: 0x0001
ROM Revision: 113-xxxxx-115
now this is what I have to say about my video card... it's an ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 with 32 megs of VRAM... While System Profiler is can be very useful, i'm pretty sure that what it told me about my card model wasn't in the "choose ur video card list"

Holy fucking crow... THEY DON'T NEED TO KNOW YOUR EXACT MODEL NUMBER! All Macs basically operate the same, they're all PowerPC issues, they all run the same operating system. Geez...
besides being extremely obnoxious here, no, they don't operate at the same speeds. my old iMac DV with a G3 running at 400 MHz is NOT basically the same as my iBook G4....

They ask that. Thats kinda the whole "CPU speed" thing.
Hijuku wrote:Then put 500Mhz-1Ghz... not that hard. Same for the rest of you.
Once again... ur wrong. The option that I should have and did put was "Power PC G4 (Mac)"... and if i choose that then i can't choose
500Mhz-1Ghz at the same time...

We posted our specs here to include information that we were not able to enter in the application.
Honestly, knowing whether I have a 933 Mhz G4 or a 1.5 Mhz isn't THAT big a deal, but they're doing a beta test, and we're trying to help by providing them with all the information we can. If they can use it, great. If they can't, then it doesn't hurt.

You're not sorry... you're rude and obnoxious.............. and ignorance bugs me too.
(which is why it would really suck if somebody corrected me on something... which is definitely going to happen lol)
