  1. Is it context sensitive ?? on "Smart Tags," Round Two · · Score: 1

    I think it will be rather amusing when the link is taken entirely out of context which will happen VERY often. Just think of all those funny European brand names that could be takn out of context. We get whole TV programs in the UK devoted to such faux pas!!

    I'd rather not be subjected to it on the whole.... Let the author decide..

    If I want to be biased, and place an argument based on shortsighted facts, my web page should remain as intended. I dont want some other git correcting my narrowminded views.

    This may not be "correct" but its my view, and no MS crony is gonna change it....

  2. Transistor size not an issue. on Intel Claims Smallest, Fastest Transistor · · Score: 1

    Anyone working in the silicon industry will tell you that the limiting factor these days is not the size of transistors, but the delays brought about by metallization layers. Over the last few years, going sub .15u has seen the whole ethos of silicon design change i.e. performance is now limited by interconnect delay rather than transistor speed. Yeah, its cool, but as far as the PC on your desk is concerned, until the effect of Al/Cu metalwork is circumvented, these super transistors will be like having a ferrari in your driveway but no key to start it. Still, better to have it waiting in the wings ready, rather than not....
