The Mac Pro 2009 will support non ECC memory
In the words of Cédric:
A small message to let you know that I have just received my new MacPro Nahelem Quad 2,66 GHz. I have just tested a set of 3 memory card 2GB OCZ DDR3 PC10600 (FSB of 1333 MHz) NON-ECC. The machine accepted them without a problem. They are recognized as 1066 MHz, the absence of ECC does not create any problem.
Being surprised that this memory functions, we asked him to make a hardware test on his machine. It ran in a normal way without posting any errors. Even though this makes it possible to find less expensive memory, we strongly advise you to use ECC memory that avoids the small risks of hanging related to a corruption of the data on a card.
Talkcast preview: special guest Mitch Wagner from InformationWeek
Filed under: TUAW Business, Podcasts
If you joined us last Sunday night, you heard an unvarnished rant in five-part harmony as Dave, Christina, Mike S., Mel and I all weighed in on the ongoing series of "Laptop Hunters" Microsoft TV ads (yes, there's a third one now: an adorable mother-and-son team of laptop shoppers who shockingly still find time to slag the Mac as a kiddie machine while they browse the aisles) along with MacHeist and the other news of the week. You can download the show from Talkshoe or subscribe in iTunes.
Tomorrow night -- Easter Sunday, 10 pm ET -- we'll be joined by a special guest: Mitch Wagner of InformationWeek, also known (in Second Life, anyway) as the metallic talkshow host Copper Robot. Bring your questions for Mitch about Apple news, virtual communities, social media & the public sector... we'll be covering the entire waterfront.

CNBC: Apple beating recession
Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Apple Financial, iPhone
A panel on CNBC's Fast Money was recently remarking on AAPL's apparent invulnerability to the recession that's currently affecting the United States, noting that it's jumped 40% so far this year, outperforming the NASDAQ. J.P. Mark of Farmhouse Equity Research suggests that the excitement that persists among Apple's retail employees customers is a part of that performance.
As for the stock's immediate future, the panel and Mr. Mark point to this summer's concurrent release of iPhone OS 3.0 and a likely new iPhone model as a powerful stimulus. Finally, Mr. Mark notes that it isn't often that an electronic gadget becomes more useful and valuable over time.
I definitely agree with that. My iPhone is now almost two years old and it does much more than it did when I first opened its box. Also, if a new iPhone does appear this summer just as my current contract is expiring, I'll almost certainly buy it.
