I was referring to block device controllers, not flash controllers. I hope you agree they are quite different. Hmmm... I wonder if we'll ever have general purpose Flash controllers embedded on motherboards, and storage is just a PCIe card with Flash chips and a basic interface.
Me thinks Google's patent and release strategy is tad different of that of MS. Windows will always have all patents paid for, or sued of. Other VC-1 implementations, not so. That wouldn't have happened if VC-1 had been reverse engineered, I think.
How about Intel, AMD and nVidia attaching a patent license to their new hardware, and include x264 in the firmware. Anybody who feels like tweaking can change that part of the firmware, and have no legal issues, due to the attached patent license. It would work under any OS, FOSS or not that fully supports the hardware. Maybe release two versions of the hardware: one with a patent license, one without. Near zero overhead, makes all the FOSS guys happy (XP users too), and Win 7 users don't have to pay a h.264 fee twice.
Here's another datum: I have no problem with either integrals or low level number crunching, but I have the habit of making brain dead mistakes in the silliest of places.
I wonder if you can use the enormous torque of ["ac"]||["de"]+"celerating" a pair of counterrotating flywheels to give the car out-of-this-world handling, and use the gyroscopic effect to make active suspension pointless. It's probably a good idea to get rid of the ICE and put a decent NiLi battery. To top it off, you remember Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive? Two electric motors attached to a planetary gear reducer? Now, remember that there are two self-synchronous motor geometries. One with an enclosing (around the coils) rotor, and one with the rotor within the coils. Well, why not make an engine with two rotors? Like two engines in one, with shared components, making it much lighter.

I'd say use a pair of easily hackable cable modems.
You should try shrooms, they make full use of the GPU.

I doubt even Oracle and MS can pull that one off put together, let alone anyone else. And frankly, I don't think IBM cares enough.

Yes?

Actually, hardware multipliers sometimes take the same approach as described in the GP post.
There are 102 keys!
And I just farted!
Better yet, wire the Flash chips near directly to the PCIe backplane, and use a controller on the motherboard.
FusionIO is a storage company, not a storage controller company.
Get a descent standalone crypto accelarator, if your that short on CPU, and use a plain vanilla hard drive/SSD.
WebGL, audio and video tags. What the hell is wrong with HTML? Perfectly sound way to describe UIs.
Separate x86 transcoder chip. Not that much powersaving, but better than any software.
Slashdot - sleep and fuck? WTF?
Being part of a collective consciousness covers all of them, if you know anything about meme theory.
Yeah, Nokia is totally gonna let that happen...
Sure. I've just friended you. Feel free ti reply to any of my comments at anytime. I always check. BTW, are you from the US, or somewhere else?
Thanks. That's some beautiful software. I wonder if there are modern versions or equivalents...
Different sector sizes? Way cool. What brand and model is it?
There are EFI versions of XP you know.
And they dare ask what's with all the school shootings.
Magnetic bearings.
