Archos Widescreen PMP

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the if-only-my-psp-had-50x-the-space dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Archos has just announced their newest portable audio/video player the AV 700 Mobile DVR. The new unit has a 480x234 pixel widecreen display, a hub to record from TV and DVD, and offers a 100GB drive. The sucker is heavy though weighing in at over a pound. Cost is $799 for the 100GB model and $599 for the 40GB. MP3 Newswire also has Part 1 of its MP3 players for summer. Most interesting are Creative's new Neeon and a high end unit from Bose."

    I am a World Community Grid (go Slashdot Users!) "newbie," and have a question to those among you who have more experience with this program.

    My first three proteine processing tasks took 4 to 5 hours, but the last proteine processing I had took a little more than 26 hours to complete (with a minimum Rosetta of -70.34). Is this normal? Is it due to the complexity of the proteine? Or am I experiencing an uncommon performance drop?

    Thanks for your assistance and sorry for being off-topic (but I didn't know where else to post).
