I loved that processor [line]. When I first started learning Objective-C I was building a particle system playground with my friend. Then I learned about the vDSP / Accelerate framework, which harnessed the parallel capabilities of the RISC architecture, and suddenly I could make WAY cooler visuals. That’s a technique that has come back many times since for me, and in a way is what made me open-minded towards more parallel approaches to things on GPU, etc. It’s a different way of thinking about problems, and can be very interesting. 1: http://mirror.macintosharchive.org/developer.apple.com/performance/accelerateframework.html http://mirror.macintosharchive.org/developer.apple.com/perfo...
