  6. 10 million nodes.... on Linux Cluster attains 125.2 GFLOPS · · Score: 0

    Actually no there is not really a limit. The only limit you would have is the band width, but with the technologies comming out right now, high band width will be like pocket lint...

    Space comsuption depends on what the use for their systems. If they use standard workstation then it will take up alot of room, but if you use SBC's (Single Board computer) the amount of room would decress quite abit.

  10. I hope not.. on MP3 device makers win at the court · · Score: 0

    What the heck is this 'Audio Home Recording Act' anyways? The name sound like they control anything recorded at home in an audio format.. (I hope the RIAA doesn't try to pick up this idea)

    But if you own the CD you may do anything you want w/ it, becuase you own the rights to the CD which you bought. You can dub it to tape, you can rip it to MP3, you can piss on it becuase it is yours to do almost what ever you want. The copywrite laws states whats illegal, which is basically you can't sell copies of something you bought and you can't just give away copies to your freinds.

    I think the government should shut down the RIAA due the laws of intellagence and moral based with-in this group becuase they get away with ripping of the public and the artists. RIAA is almost a monopoly if you look at in the right light. Every band that made it to be known by everyone is on a label which is involded w/ the RIAA. It's like you have to sell your soul to make it in the record industry. Also note that everytime that a radio station plays a song by an artist that is in some way attacted to the RIAA they have to pay royalty fees, so anyone that say that pirating is hurting the arist majorly, think about how many times you hear their song on the radio.........

    I saw this last night too, in the middle of hick ville, but I do agree it was alot better than the first. The only problems I saw were the couple of jokes that were re-used, but they were still funny or more than the first, and the blantant advertisement that was in the movie. But there are som neat tech toys they show off that I think the average geek would love to get their hands on to.

    I saw this also. If the x86 scene (amd, IDT, ect) could team up with Hitachi, I think the product from that would rock. But I also wish the x86 scene would start trying to use the alpha's fpu... You know 1.2Gflops, instead of this 500Mflops(or is it upto 800?).

  19. Post on Absolutepc.net on K7 Benchmarking · · Score: 5

    Well it appears that the info we had was correct as AMD did show a presentation including bencmarks at the dinner it hosted tonight. I got a little snippet of info from a usenet posting that JC posted and I thought should be posted here as well. Check it out:
    hi,
    I've just returned the dinner meeting at which Dirk Meyer (VP of Eng.
    AMD) had a presentation. My first impression is that K7 looks very promising.
    Mr. Meyer told us that AMD was indeed announcing K7 this month (June
    '99) at 500, 550 and 600 Mhz. It has 22 Million transistors on a 184
    mm square die at .25 micron process.

    The first release of K7 will have 512K of L2 cache at half-speed.
    At 600 MHz, K7 is %115 faster in SpecInt95 than a PIII Xeon 550Mhz
    with 512K full speed cache. At 550 K7 is %106 faster in SpecInt.
    At 600MHz, K7 is %143 faster than the same PIII Xeon at SpecFPBase.
    At 550Mhz, K7 is %136 faster (these numbers are interpolated visually
    from a slide which means 143 was closer to 140 than 150).
    At 3D Winbench 99 V1.2 (null driver) on win98, K7 600 is at %146
    faster than the said PIII Xeon using SSE optimizations.

    There are new Integer SIMD instructions, DSP type instructions for
    MP3, AC (audio) etc. and cache prefetch instructions. Microsoft will
    support 3DNow in an upcoming Visual Studio release.

    At initial launch, there won't be any MP systems. All motherboards
    (from Asus, Biostar, Gigabyte, FIC and one other I couldn't catch)
    will use AMD chipset. Via, ALI and SIS are designing their own
    chipsets to be released before the end of this year.

    These are most of my notes during the one hour presentation and Q&A
    afterwards. All errors are my own. I speak only for myself etc., etc.

    For full music. I want to hear my music they way it sounded.. No fakes. Tubes are great for guitar amps. But digital is the way to go becuase harmonics are really low and the general resolution is alot better. But tube @chip size would not work do to physics.
