VIA's New Nehemiah M10000 Processor Reviewed

Posted by timothy on from the low-power-madness dept.

Joseph Wharton writes "Mini-ITX.com has a review of VIA's new Nehemiah M10000 EPIA-M motherboard and processor. Some of the new features include a full-speed floating-point unit (finally!), SSE instructions, 64KB of full-speed L2 cache, and (get this) a hardware-based random number generator. Also, there's IO/APIC support in these new procs, potentially paving the way for dual EPIA boards."

    I also have many devout reflections and ejaculations, especially when pouring hot grits down my pants in Soviet Russia while looking a beowulf cluster of Natalie Portmans.

    There is no Linux program with equivelant functionality.

    There usually isnt.

    At least the "mythology" (as you so flamebait-wise put it) of Christianity is rational, as opposed to the irrational belief in evolutionism which is so prevalent among those who have not questioned assumptions and investigated issues for themselves.
