Targetting G5 is not much harder than targetting G4. Very few people will develop G5-specific applications. However, some performance hot-spots can definitely benefit from G5 optimization just as some can benefit from Altivec optimization, and it's almost as easy to add some G5-specific code that gets called at runtime as it is to add some Altivec-specific code that gets called at runtime. The problem is that it doesn't sound like CodeWarrior 9 will generate this G5-specific code. With the December 2002 release of the Mac OS X Developer Tools and the GCC 3.3 update from Apple, I can generate that G5-specific code today. -- Chris -- Chris Hanson, bDistributed.com, Inc. | Email: cmh@bDistributed.com Custom Application Development | Phone: +1-847-372-3955 http://bdistributed.com/ | Fax: +1-847-589-3738 http://bdistributed.com/Articles/ | Personal Email: cmh@mac.com
