    You're obviously a sadistic masked vigilante with a thing against liberals.

    Viewpoint I don't like: "I don't care if governments are abusing their power, England must prevail."

    Obvious troll: "I don't know what's going on, and I haven't read the article, but I'm sure that these governments are doing what's right."

    See the difference?

    No, of course you don't -- what am I wasting my time for...

    I'm sorry, but just... no.

    You post that "you're not sure what they are posting on their site," even though it says it right in the summary. You make sure and state that you "don't know," because if you did read the summary, you wouldn't be here applauding these actions.

    Then you come out and talk about how it's great that "countries are working together to fight crime," even though that has absolutely no bearing on what this story is about.

    Conclusion, you're a troll.

    Somebody please mod this down as a troll, I have no points.

    It's so easy even I noticed it, and I've been described by people I know as "dense as a bag of rocks."

    It's probably because at stock clocks (what they have to run for this test), the 7750 runs a lot slower than the 6400+, while probably using the same amount of power.

    Other than that it's a darn good chip.

    I'm using Firefox on Windows, as (if my own stats for tech sites show) I'm sure a good 70% of the people browsing this site are, and this page looks fine.

    You know what he's talking about. The ACLU stands for civil liberties but then chooses to selectively uphold a very common interpretation of the 2nd Amendment (that individuals have the right to keep and bear arms).

    I've never met one of these coders in real life. For that matter, I've never been with a company who's internal politics would even allow such a person to exist.

    You know, your argument doesn't mean anything to me, since you're apparently forgetting that the version of Internet Explorer that Microsoft's testing isn't released yet.
