yeah, they did...
from about '93 - '97, macs ran on those processors, what mac users call a "68k." Then the PowerPC (akin to the processor in the GameCube), G3, and now G4.

yeah so did the saturn run 2 sh2's or some 68k processors? for some reason i am thinking the 3rd revision of the saturn used the 68k processors. maybe i am wrong.

I take it you're referring to the power of the video-editting suite they used in the hangar

I can't stand people who think man didn't land on the moon. All the arguments are so crap. Like "You can't see stars in the video," Derrr, you can't see many stars in space as their nothing for the light to reflect off.

This was another great "Derrr," in history
Er stars give off their own light, for evidence of this look up during the day, and I'd be more concerned with all the other errors in the moon landing footage like multiple light sources, wasn't there meant to just be a light on the camera? then why do some astronauts produce 2 shadows? and the lines on the lem camera sometimes go behind peoples heads, very strange.

Its a pretty well known fact you see less stars up in space. Yes they do let off their own light, but most that reach us isn't visable, It has to bounce off our atmosphere before we can see it. Just like why the sky is blue. Only blue frequencies are absorbed in nitrogen and oxygen molecules. Their is another reason but that is the main. You might say then why can we see our star, the sun, well its closer. If we could see all stars then the sky would have more stars and it wouldn't really be night

It was first beleived that the other shadow was becasie of the moon letting its own light off (it glows you see). But it was found that the Earth is responsible. It is quite bright from the moon.
Object aren't actually in front of the line. Even the most stupid person couldn't do that on photoshop. Tell me, how could you put lines behind objects, accidently. It only appears that lines are behind object as the object may be black or start just as the line finish giving it the affect that it is behind the object

The moon does not glow, it reflects.

Stay on topic here crt0.
What about the moon landing? Is it fake? ;D
7 processors. That's gonna take a lot of horsepower to emulate at decent speeds.
For one thing the moon photos have grids running throu them but what do you know one of the grids in the photo's .It goes behind a hill then in front of the hill meaning the the hill was placed on top of a old photo ....
what nasa siad it was bad editing is all they could come up with
the flags wave for fks sake there no air or wind yet the flags wave fk me dead
if any one with half a mind thinks those moon pics are real .. Then so was the fake saturncast snescast and the n64 fake bullshit
really the big one theres no blast crator under any of the moon landers
we see the lander take off being pulled up by a string
when it flys off the moon what a joke
if they could land on any planet they not use the ocean to spash down in
there so much proof its a total fake
it was done because the usa wanted to get there before russia.........
nasa has no proof they landed on the moon infact they refused to go any were near it with the hobble telescope or any probe why.....
we see theres no rovers no landers and no flags waving in the non windy no air planet
how could any one believe it when the flags wave and the shadows have forsides theres no single light source in the photos it was done on a sound stage its so bloody silly they should just addmit it
give the smart people a break .......... it was as fake as wwe

Could the dual Sh2 be done within the Sh4 do to backwards compatablity easly? M68k could be done using the DC sound thing (forgot the name sorry). No clue where you'd find any power left in dc to do the 2 vdp, 1 dsp or the cpu. Well the cpu could probly be done in the sh4 right?
DNR the current kickass dc programer. Thanks
for the emulator I've been waiting 2 years for.
Thanks to Reaper2k2 also for showing interest into WSC emulation.
I have no idea re: fake or not, but those 3 sites are interesting, especially the 2nd.
Yeah the 2'nd one is an interesting blank page, maybe Nasa got to this one, I like the shot of the structure reflected in the helmet (labelled as D) in this shot:

If I'm not mistaken, the CD controller CPU is A Hitachi SH-1. (I may be wrong about this however.) And about the DC's SH-4 doing the dual SH-2's, you would first need to reverse the endianness of the saturn stuff, since it is big-endian, and the dc is little-endian.(I think).
With some of the extremely powerful telescopes (as well as the hubbel, I believe) they've gotten pictures of the flag on the moon. It doesn't look BIG in the images, but you can tell what it is. So yes, the flag is there.
And yes, man landed on the moon.
People who say the moon landing was faked remind me of people who believe the holocaust was fake. There are people who genuinely believe it was a vast Jewish conspiracy to make them look like victims and gain leverage somehow.
Oh yeah, and Russians are believed to have crash landed on the dark side of the moon before the USA. There are recordings of them speaking in Russia, slightly panicked as they started to get to the darker side (something went wrong, obviously) of the moon and then lost contact, never to be heard from again.
The moon landing was not fake, we should start another topic about this.
But, the russians put a rover on the moon bout 15 years after Apollo 11. I've seen the footage, it shows the flag, the junk that USA left behind.
I can disprove every theory of why it was fake. Someone said something bout the flag?
Well, the flag is full of wire so that it stand up straight. Anyone held a 2m long piece of bout 3mm wire? The smallest vibration and the other end shakes like hell. The flag was rolled up on the pod so the flag waving is the guy tring to straightn out the wire and him connecting it to the poll. In short, the smallest vibration will make that thing wave.
