Do people just not like to work with theatrical widescreen's(16/9, not 47/20)? I would think they could be cheaper, sharing costs and volume with consumer electronics.

5Ghz in 1H03, not according to intel roadmaps. I believe this is a typo. Intel doesn't show signs of moving much past 3.06 in the first quarter.

Why would developing countries spend the cash on a premium, niche product. Are they going to put bose speakers in all their stereos and TVs too?

2-3 years is a while for software to change. So far software developers have been able to add features (or bloat) fast enough to use up all the resources. We seem to be in a bit of a lull right now though. Whenever we get voice recognition and sy…

AMD may be over-capacity until the end of the year, but that's because they can't compete at the top of the line performance right now, and the market slump. Their units sold for the last quarter fell 25%. They see this as a short term situation t…

I think it could be useful in a few limited situations now. Until handwriting recognition becomes 99.9% accurate, weight is cut in half, & we have pervasive high-speed wireless connections, tablets will be a niche product. However MS can affor…

[quote]IMO, these things are becoming too small to be useful. However, if you could plug in a full sized keyboard and mouse and connect the output to an external monitor, then I could see where the small size could be an advantage. Like this:

I don't think out-of-nowhere product releases that will dominate the current players are likely to happen with silicon based processing. Maybe some DNA computing or nanotube research group will have a breakthrough in the next 4-8 years. Power de…

[quote]How about we start naming processors after elements? The "Opteron" could be the Neon, and the G5 could be called the "Einsteinium". We could nickname the P4's Pb. I think element 113, or unobtainium, would be a better name for the G5. H…

I see two problems. First, that lightgun wasn't very accurate, nintendo later released a bazooka type lightgun that had single (TV) pixel accuracy, but I don't know if precise optics could be made into a pen that could be held at a variety of angl…

There seems to be some confusion on the different methods here. One option, phase change cooling(refrigerators), is too loud, bulky, expensive, and sucks up a decent amount of power. These are sold by koolance. They are both quieter and cool more…

Porting to osX to x86 would take too long, and not enough developers would stick with it. Certainly this isn't going to happen in the near future. I doubt AMD is going to spend resources to get osX running on a ppc hammer. AMD has a reputation of…

[quote]If Apple buys AMD, Apple gains it's resources and technology. The fact that AMD is taken out of the equation in the x86 world also benefits Apple; Intel's competition is dramatically reduced. AMD wouldn't go willingly into this arrangemen…

AMD had a conference call with UMC yesterday. They are going in together on a fab in singapore. Some notes from the call indicate that they will withdraw from the (originally 7 year) motorola alliance. The reason is becuase AMD needs more product…

[quote]usb2 or "usb 2.0" = 71 + 157 = 228 usb = 2792 - 228 (to adjust for overlap) = 2564 11 : 1 ratio of usb to usb2 devices Good bye, Intel! Yeah, USB 1 only has about a 5 year headstart. [quote]P.S. Firewire? Between 600 and 700 Goo…

[quote]I think this points out very nicely the difference between Microsoft and Apple. Microsoft sees the brain-dead couch potatos as part of their natural market, and have hatched the XBox as a way to suck them in. Apple, on the other hand, wants t…
