SONNET ANNOUNCES G4 500 WALLSTREET UPGRADE -
Macworld New York - July 16, 2002.
Sonnet Technologies, the worldwide market share leader in processor upgrade cards for Apple MacintoshÆ computers, announces the CrescendoT/WS G4 500, the latest addition to its line of Crescendo/WS processor upgrades for PowerBookÆ G3 Series "Wallstreet" computers. This upgrade offers a powerful Motorola G4 processor running at 500 MHz, with 1MB Level 2 backside cache, which more than doubles the performance of a stock 233MHz machine. The Crescendo/WS G4 500 also corrects a MacÆ OS "sleep mode" issue that can prevent these machines from waking up from sleep mode under OS 9 and earlier operating systems.
The Crescendo/WS is
compatible with the PowerBook's existing hardware, software, peripherals,
and RAM. This product supports a total RAM capacity of 512MB and accommodates
from 32MB to 256MB
SO-DIMMs. It integrates with your system software, supporting Mac OS 8.1
and higher, and the latest innovations of OS X without any additional
software or plug-ins.
