CONTENTS December 1993 Dear Readers, Nearly two years ago I was asked to join a team of Apple developer support people who would meet monthly to discuss a forthcoming Macintosh model that would be based on the new PowerPC (RISC) processor. Our goal was to ensure that developers receive the support they need to get started on this new computer, due to be introduced in 1994. It seemed a bit premature to me back then, but the time went faster than anyone would have imagined. Now I’m happy to finally have something to show for it in develop: an article to help you make the transition to this new stage in the life of the Macintosh. We hope to tear the engineers away from their programming long enough to be able to have a steady stream of articles on this subject in future issues. CAROLINE ROSE The PowerPC processor–based Macintosh will be formally introduced roughly a decade after the introduction of the first Macintosh computer, which of course makes me wax nostalgic about what I was doing then at Apple: furiously finishing up Inside Macintosh on an Apple III, handing off chapters to Louella Pizzuti (later the founder of develop) to format them on the Macintosh in MacWrite®. But most of all, I remember looking forward to what I knew would be worldwide acceptance of — no, excitement about! — our new computer. The world is different now, as am I (we’ve both changed a lot in ten years), and I’m shorter on starry-eyed wonder and exclamation points than I was back then. But to quote an old TV personality (trivia question: who?): “I think you’re gonna like this one.” Talk about time flying by, this thing is fast. And it’s still a Macintosh (which I’ll always have a warm spot for in my heart no matter where I roam). It’s a horse of a different color, but it’s still a horse: a sleek, beautiful racehorse that should make us all winners. At least that’s what I’m betting. Caroline Rose Editor 2 CAROLINE ROSE (AppleLink CROSE) got into back after five years and become the editor of technical writing because of a Math degree she develop. After putting each issue of develop to didn’t know what to do with. It landed her a job bed, Caroline likes to take off to someplace at Tymshare, where she wrote her first manual in where she can forget about computers altogether. pencil on paper, from which someone typed it on After this issue, she’ll fulfill a dream she’s had an IBM Selectric typewriter. But enough ancient since the first time she looked at a globe as a history. Caroline’s career at Apple began with child: she’ll visit the Caroline islands. She’ll stay Inside Macintosh and almost ended when she left with friends who live on a sailboat in primitive to join NeXT, but she was smart enough to come style (except for their computers!).• d e v e l o p Issue 16 NEW CD & PACKAGING: GOOD After a few weeks had gone by, I phoned I just received develop Issue 14 in the ADPA to ask why I hadn’t received mail (a little late, but worth the wait!). anything. I was told that they had been As usual, the articles are enlightening swamped with orders as a result of the and entertaining.

  • A Developer's Guide to the POWER Architecture
    http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-powarch/ 7/26/2011 10:53 AM English Sign in (or register) Technical topics Evaluation software Community Events A developer's guide to the POWER architecture POWER programming by the book Brett Olsson , Processor architect, IBM Anthony Marsala , Software engineer, IBM Summary: POWER® processors are found in everything from supercomputers to game consoles and from servers to cell phones -- and they all share a common architecture. This introduction to the PowerPC application-level programming model will give you an overview of the instruction set, important registers, and other details necessary for developing reliable, high performing POWER applications and maintaining code compatibility among processors. Date: 30 Mar 2004 Level: Intermediate Also available in: Japanese Activity: 22383 views Comments: The POWER architecture and the application-level programming model are common across all branches of the POWER architecture family tree. For detailed information, see the product user's manuals available in the IBM® POWER Web site technical library (see Resources for a link). The POWER architecture is a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) architecture, with over two hundred defined instructions. POWER is RISC in that most instructions execute in a single cycle and typically perform a single operation (such as loading storage to a register, or storing a register to memory). The POWER architecture is broken up into three levels, or "books." By segmenting the architecture in this way, code compatibility can be maintained across implementations while leaving room for implementations to choose levels of complexity for price/performances trade-offs. The levels are: Book I.

Page 2 of 25 General stability • Overall, 10.9.2 seems pretty stable. It is better than 10.9.1 or 10.9. • Inevitably there will be a 10.9.3 update which is likely to fix more of the early problems with 10.9. Issues I’m aware of with 10.9.2 • Still some glitches with Mail. • Rules sometimes not working. • Odd behaviour with GMail. • In one case, I’ve seen Mail lose track of folders in a complex hierarchy. • Importing from another copy of Mail leaves an untidy hierarchy. • USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt drives ejecting unexpectedly when idle. • Only affects recent Macs with USB 3 or Thunderbolt support. • Doesn’t affect older Macs or hard drives using USB 2. • Time Machine backup to a USB 3 drive is risky. • Reduce or eliminate the problem by going into System Preferences, Energy Saver, turning off “Put hard disks to sleep when possible”. • Reconnecting to known Wi-Fi networks sometimes takes a while.
