The Near Future of Intel
wh0pper wrote to mention a Design Technica story about the near-term future of Intel. They've been getting beaten in the press pretty soundly by AMD of late, and at the Intel Developer's Forum they did their best to convince attendees they were on the comeback trail. From the article: "It wouldn't be IDF if there wasn't a solid performance message. This time, Intel clearly had AMD in their sights. By a series of their products' massive performance improvements, Intel hit the ball back into AMD's court. With Microsoft's Vista operating system coming out at the same time, Intel showed how they have the higher performing solution. Clearly, we won't know until final systems ship. But Intel presented their case strongly, suggesting they can match AMD, if not beat them."
It is just not enough to match AMD on performance. They need to match their price too. And I dont think this is ever going to happen. AMD is the clear winner.
Clearly, Google is the next Microsoft.
Plus I've made thousands off MS stock in the past few months.
Good to hear people who invest in real, honest companies instead of Make-Larry-Page-Rich-scam GOOG.
Your whole privacy rants are horrid as well, the only people who argue for privacy are pedophiles
There is a obvious correllation between pedophiles and FOSS-posterboys; see the state Wisconsin vs. Linux "Sugar Daddy" Torvland (2002).
You will also wnat to block digg.com, since it is somewhat more dangerous that Slashdot in that it sometimes has actually interesting topics.
"Some depend on serious advances in physics." last i checked, physics hasn't changed too much... I'll let you know if the apple falls up next time.
