45nm Phenom II Matches Core 2 Quad, Trails Core i7

An anonymous reader writes "AMD recently debuted its 45nm Phenom II processors, and The Tech Report has already run them through a complete suite of benchmarks to see how they perform compared to Intel's latest and greatest. The new 2.8GHz and 3GHz Phenom IIs are in a dead heat with like-priced Core 2 Quads, but they generally fall well behind Intel's new Core i7 chips. TR concludes that AMD's future doesn't look as bleak as some say, and future Phenom IIs could compete favorably with more affordable Core i7 derivatives."

    You want to talk linux conspiracies? Let's talk Jewbuntu. Jewbuntu is built on a foundation of Palestinux. In fact Jewbuntu still runs a small, tightly firewalled instance of Palestinux which it starves of resources by allowing almost no traffic to pass in/out. If the Palestinux instance attempts to start services or appropriate resources, Jewbuntu promptly bombs them into oblivion. And don't think you can solve the problem by installing UNESCO. Jewbuntu ignores any and all handshake requests originating from UNESCO.
