The current WIBU driver can't handle a native AC 10 and a rosetta AC 9 simultaneously. WIBU promised to fix this - hopefully it won't take more than a few weeks.

Hi,
Is there a new set of "MacTel Goodies" or the Release Candidate version works & is current with the final Release.
Thanks,

if you use your help menu to go to the goodies page you will see a new category has been added for the mactel release. i don't know whether or not they are different from the mactel goodies bundled with the release candidate, but they are only small to download and didn't take long to replace . . .

It's recommended to download the "final" goodies. We are recompiling goodies with every new build that we release, and those are the ones that are tested with the program.

Once you have installed those goodies, you don't have to worry about them anymore. Any further Hotfixes will update the installed goodies too.

really? what about the 'grid tool' and the 'polycount' add-ons in the latest hotfix?

I've searched the forum and read all the links, and can't find the answer to what seems an obvious question: What is the speed difference for AC 10 for the Intel Mac on a Macbook versus the Macbook Pro?

I'm sure it's faster, but how much faster? My reseller said he doesn't know and to ask here.

thanks

I don't know if anyone has had the chance to do a direct test. The MacBook Pro is one very fast computer. It beats Pentium D workstations from what I can see and runs rings around Pentium M laptops. The main difference between the MacBook and the Pro is the video but I don't know how much of an effect this would have on day to day work. I would say that a reasonable assumption is that if it is to be your primary computer you should go with the Pro. Otherwise the plain MacBook would probably do the trick.
