Final
Atom processor support still in Snow Leopard
AshMan says…
The latest build of Snow Leopard has retained its support for the Atom Processor – but the question which people are asking is will it be the last version?
Because of the support built into the operating system, many have taken advantage of it and transformed your Netbook into a Hackintosh. However word has been spreading around that Apple was attemping to stop “Hackintosh” users who were running OS X on Netbooks by blocking the Atom support.
Apple might be removing Atom support from Snow Leopard
Build 10.6.2 however still retains the Atom support, which means that Netbook OS X users can still live to see another day. This build is not final however, and in the final version this support can still be removed.
But until then happy “Hackintoshing”. Let me know if you are using a Netbook with Snow Leopard or any other version of OS X.
802.11n Wi-Fi Standard Approved
AshMan says…
It has taken seven years to finally finalise the new wireless networking standard 802.11n (six from the first draft).
Meru Networks published a blog breaking the news. The blog displays an email sent by Bruce Kraemer (Chairman of the 802.11n Task Group) to other group members regarding the approval.
The final approval of the standard will likely be formally announced on the 15th of September.
802.11n is now the fastest standard coming in at 300 megabits per second, with 802.11g coming in second at 54 megabits per second.
Draft N no longer
It is also reported that all Draft-N wireless products will work with devices the finalised version. There is also word spreading around that most (maybe all) Draft-N products can be upgraded to the final version via a simple firmware update.
