Ars Dissects POWER5, UltraSparc IV, and Efficeon
Burton Max writes "There's an interesting article here at Ars about the POWER5, UltraSparc IV, and Efficeon CPUs. It's a self-styled "overview of three specific upcoming processors: IBM's POWER5, Sun's UltraSparc IV, and Transmeta's Efficeon. " I found the insights as to Efficeon (successor to Crusoe) to be particularly good (although it paints a sad picture of Transmeta, methinks)."

I for one welcome I new Big Blue Overlords
I just ate lunch and am sleepy already. I don't think Mr. Boss would be too happy at me attempting to read these articles while at work.
That's only 8,000 protesters. The other 42,000 were only there after someone loosed a rumor that there would be free cheese at the event.
And of those 8,000 protesters, most are angry because Bush dropped the H-Bomb on Japan, or because he slept with Monica Lewinsky.
'Sup, dog?
LOL,I about spilled my soda.

whatever jew.
Kill the terrorists, it's the only thing worth doing. Lock them up, torture them, they are barely human after all. Who needs human rights, it's a war after all. Demolish their homes because that's where they keep their guns. Rape their wives because they need to know what real men are like. Pull up their orchards because the land is better used for fortifications. Smash their civil institutions because they don't deserve them. Lock them up with barbed wire, tanks, and bullets, because force will guarantee peace, we're sure of it.
Kill their children without remorse because a young terrorist will grow up to be a killer. Above all, extract biblical vengeance because that is the best way to ensure another thousand years of blood and glory.
Yeah. And feed it with US military technology and pay for it with US tax Dollars. Are you surprised that people literally hate Americans in many countries?
An alien looking at Earth today would wonder who is organizing what looks like a global resistance against a global emperium.
/me chortles with laughter.
I post AC because I don't want to bother those people reading at a threshold of 1 or higher.
Now, no one wants to hear your stupid DRAM/DRM jokes. Get lost.
"Yeah. And feed it with US military technology and pay for it with US tax Dollars. Are you surprised that people literally hate Americans in many countries?"
Yes, it is very surprising, since none of the "feed it with US..." has happened in decades.
"An alien looking at Earth today would wonder who is organizing what looks like a global resistance against a global emperium."
The largest imperialist state left is mainland China.
"It's a shame that they often show up at anti-globalisation protests, because globalisation _is_ a bad thing,"
No, it is a very good thing: it removes silly things like international boundaries that get in our freedom. It also reduces the riches of the ruling class who try to "get a cut" of international trade through punitive taxation (known as tariffs).
Anti-globalization is anti-liberty. Those black-hooded violents are not an aberation, but a typical part of the fascistic mindset.
