How do you upgrade IBM aptiva to xp?
There were many models in the IBM Aptiva line. Some are capable of running XP either right out of the box or with a memory upgrade. others are not capable of being upgraded enough to run XP. Without information on your model, it is impossible to say what upgrades, if any, are possible or needed.
What computer manufacturer dropped the PS1 line to create an aptiva brand for home user?
IBM was developing Cell processors for the PS3 and cancelled the line.
Which computer company dropped the Play Station line and created an Aptiva brand computer for home users?
The very question is based on an incorrect fact. The computer company IBM might be a parts supplierlicensedto make some Playstation components, but itwasnever there line to drop. Playstation was neverinpartnershipwitha company except for when SonyandNintendo hadthePlay Station name as a concept and unreleased console under development. In other words it never happened as describedin thequestion because they (IBM) did not have a Playstation Line to drop even if they did develop the Aptiva Brand it was not the Playstation, but IBM was merely one of many parts suppliers. It is not true that IBMdroppedthe Playstation Cell processors. The IBM processors might have been replaced by a newer better cell processor forSony which they have done many times over the history of the PS3. They have had many newer processors each often using less power and increasing the PS3 reliability. They even had a number of different Processors during the product development. Moreover the Aptiva Brand was created way before the PS3 and about the time of the PS1. IBM could not do as the question sequence suggests and create Aptiva after the parts supplied for the Playstation was droppedSony, in an alliance with Toshiba and IBM (called STI) designed the Cell processors used in the PlayStation 3. In 2009 IBM stopped development on Cell processors for Sony products. IBM also created a line of computers called Aptiva. However, the question is likely a bit of confusion about two different products.The PS3 slim was released in 2009 with a smaller 45 mm Cell and Sony discontinued production of the Fat PS3. The Fat PS3 had larger hotter running cells that resulted in more product failures. Likely that they (IBM) did not have thecapabilityof making the new improved cell and were dropped as a supplier.It is true that IBMToshibaand Sony Computer Entertainment worked together with others to try an develop a new product and this was well after the Aptiva was released. This was done because there were no processors available at the time (2000) that would meet the PS3 requirements 6 years before the PS3 was actually released. You also would find that they only designed onesimilarto that used in the PS3 as it has been through many changes and modifications from the first2.4GHz DD1 Cell in the Shreck model PS3 of January 2005. Later released 3.2 GHz processors with Cell Serial Numbers of CXD2964GB for the Cell CPU that had one 3.2Ghz PPE (Power Processor Element) with two threads and eight 3.2Ghz SPE (Synergistic Processing Elements)The Cell was introducedat 90 MM.Later, PS3 model numbers starting with CECHG uses the 65nm version, while the PS3 Slim (CECH-20xx) used the 45nm version.
