Volvos are the safest to be in when you get in a crash. Survivability has always been highest in Volvos. That is their big safety advantage. They build tanks.
Yup. I can see credibility to this lawsuit. I am the IT Manager at the company. The president of my company used a Palm Vx. The com port on his computer blew out twice. After the first time we replaced the motherboard on his PC with an ASUS motherboard. Several weeks latrer it blew out too. The computer and all its peripherals were plugged into a APC UPS so it was not line voltage that caused the proble. After replacing the board again, I added an APC serial port surge protector between the palm and the computer.....no more blowouts.
At the time Palm denied there were any problems to the cradle that would cause this. But after exhausting all other possibilities, I believe it has something to do with the Palm's. I might just contact these people and help them in their fight
Your cenario would work only if PCI 3.0 was backward compatible with PCI 2.X
PCI 2.0 cards could be used in PCI 2.1 slots. So they released the slots and people still used the old cards without a problem. Once the new slots were prevelant they released the new cards.
If PCI 2.1 cards can not be used in a 3.0 slot it is an entirely different story. Cards will have to be released at the same time as slots so people can use the slots. Everything I have read about this standard leads me to believe it will not be backward compatable, from the syncronous/asynchronous switch to the reduced wiring count.
There will be a lot of confusion in the general public if it keeps the PCI 3 name.

Named it the Audrey. Failed miserably. I have no doubt this will follow along the same doomed path.
I read slashdot from a 777 cruicing at 36,000 feet.
