“Word that Apple had disabled Atom support in a Mac OS X 10.6.2 beta seed may have been premature, an update from the same discoverer says.” A newer build, 10C535, now appears to have brought the feature back and hints that the lack of Atom support may have been a bug or an otherwise temporary action,” Electronista reports. “Apple’s code doesn’t have any immediate clues as to whether or not the move was intentional.”
Electronista reports, “Apple is known to regularly allow at least basic support of processors outside of those used in Macs but often doesn’t provide full feature support or any guarantees that this support will persist.”

not gonna make me buy a netbook
So basically, one person overreacts to their Hackintosh netbook temporarily not working, and suddenly it’s “news”?
Aren’t you overreacting to someone overreacting?
I don’t care what else is in the update as long as they fix my 17″ mbp from having a black screen when I lift the lid from sleeping…
Excellent psycological strategic move! Apple knows how to maintain the pressure… and the buzz!!
I HATE the bloody rollovers which keep popping up. PLEEEEEEEASE MDN, get rid of them. They are NEVER useful and serve only as a continual irritant…
But will netbooks be snappier?
I demand the right to overeact to overeactions. Do we want to become a nazi state? Bit non news mind isn’t it.
Blogger diarrhea continues unabated. The crybabies that have been wet nursed their lives and whose existence revolves around every blog about Apple once again have shown their infantile, immature development.
Its a hallmark of the ‘me’ generation that has not given anything nor sacrificed anything to the society that wet nursed them. They want it all for free, as an entitlement, ala that stupid fool Obama.
Well, infants, you blew on this one too. In between stealing music and wailing about Apple not supporting your piece of shit netbook, it turns out that you were bawling about something that never happened.
Time for another diaper change, eh?
One day, you may grow the fsck up, you babies, but I doubt it. More probably you will rationalize you taker and don’t-pay-for-anything and give-nothing-back-to-society culture as a ‘right’, complete with entitlement compensation.
Wow took less than 10 posts before someone more or less blamed Obama.
It’s assholes like you that made me mock Apple users back in the day.
Someone needs a nap.

Roll over go buh bye
When required, turn that god forsaken piece of shit back on.
X didn’t “more or less blame Obama” He was pointing out that our society tends to think that the good life we have is more or less thought to be deserving to the newer generation and that they don’t realize it took sacrifice and great amounts of work by the past generations to achieve it, albeit with some major mistakes along the way and that that kind of mentality is why people elected Obama because he plays to that kind of thinking.
Use Firefox and get the plugin Ghostery. Then you can choose to block Vibrant Ads. Those things pissed me off too…
Keep your cursor on the white space to the far left or far right of the contents. Then the cursor will miss the written material.
Oh noesss! Obama made all the iMacs GLOSSY!
@x
WTF?
Kind of a stretch on this one, eh?
Puleeeze. If “giving back” was really a priority for the right, y’all wouldn’t whine so much about paying your taxes. The “me” mentality you complain of is the entire Republican platform.
@X
You had me at Obama
Yes, x <u>DID</u> “more or less blame Obama”, which is, or SHOULD be, “Inappropriate Behavior” in this forum. A totally Off Topic aspersion, indicative of a Troll who Doesn’t Play Well With Others. Then throwing in the Red Herring of: “you taker and don’t-pay-for-anything and give-nothing-back-to-society culture as a ‘right’, complete with entitlement compensation” … rather disingenuous, I’d say. It would be equally wrong to associate that with Right Wing Republicans, but it sure seems a fair label to attach to the predatory Bush2 Administration and its supporters.
And the Anonymous who posted: “newer generation and that they don’t realize it took sacrifice and great amounts of work by the past generations to achieve it” might be surprised to know that at least a few <u>Retirees</u> supported him.
On Topic: so, Apple needs to thank some hacker for noticing that some internal code they’d planned on using “soon” was broken in a recent “Daily”. Although, he <u>thought</u> he was noticing something else. Still … all fixed now. Thank you, sir.
I bet you the random anti-Obama comment stays on the forum longer than the comment recommending a plugin to block MDN’s annoying flash ads.
Then you are probably a retired college professor or someone who really didn’t work for a living….
Don’t worry Murricans, the rest of the world loves Obama as much as it hated Bush.
