    The story I saw on channel 4 was funny. They said this technology was only seen in the movies... I saw this about a couple months ago in Electronics Now.. But the military uses retna scanning on classified project and has been using that technology since the early 80's.

  6. Power? on Microsoft Challenges Linux community · · Score: 0

    I feel that they are trying to make it compatable w/ everything then make it so stable, then try to optimize the code for speed, size and low resourse consumption.

    Try running NT on a 486 w/ 8 meg.. Ain't gonna happen.

    Linux is more than happy on an 486 w/ 8 meg.

  19. Re:Power PC? on New Nintendo System to use PowerPC · · Score: 0

    From what I saw it had a dual fpu.. Which is cool. The interger rate if equaled to a 300 or 333 if plenty fast enough.. If you are doing gaming, A/V, or intense complex calculations, you should have a kicks ass system.. For the gamers inside us, this would kick as in a pc configuration. In a beuwolf situation, it would kick more ass for movie making..... SGI and Pixar would love to use this technology if everything Sony states is true. I'm running on a IDT winchip @ 240, so this chip would kick my computers' ass all over the place. I just think it would just be cool to make a pc/server out of it.. Just to say that I could do it..

  23. Re:Gigabit ethernet vs. ATM on First Gigabit Ethernet Chip Demo · · Score: 0

    Ethernet is usually a non-switching network, so it tends to be slower.
    ATM is high speed switch network.

    Ethernet has diffrent packaging signals from ATM.

    I hope I got my facts straight (Long story)
    But reason for this would be for cheap solution for putting in a bigger back bone in building, instead of ripping out copper and installing fiber.
