Biometrics is also the weakest against the guy with a gun at the ATM scenario, You fingerprint is still there if he blows your brains out, Your Pin not so much
Define quality. If you mean stable and get the job done for most people, then I'd say yes. If you mean blazing speed and can run the latest games at a framerate that would melt your face, then no. ATi and nVidia have it covered and Intel is sticking with what they do best, general computer processors.
Also their Linux driver support is top-notch in this area.
By quality I mean it's comparable to a current $200 video card.
I don't need to play crysis at 60fps, But I sure would like to at least not have OpenGL 3.3 games be stereoscopic.
I worked for Western Union for over 6 years, they are subject to many, many banking regulations. Since PayPal is a money transfer service, it should fall under the same regulations.
It's too bad WU management is deathly afraid of the Internet (well, technology in general), otherwise they could have prevented PayPal from ever existing.
Funny WU is probably the only company that could still put them out of business, Something even google couldn't do.
It's only 800mhz, but it does have separate 2D/3D GPU and audio. Offsetting the graphic and sound with different chips allows it to perform as well as or faster than the Vibrant. Also comes with stock android, none of that SenseUI crud.
T-mobile has a HSPA+ city list on their coverage site as well.
Personally I look forward to default 3D app menu with OpenGL and 5.1 sound output, but that may just be me.
Wait there are people on slashdot who don't use cyanogenmod?
It should concern you. A smaller process almost always equates to lower power usage, and in the case of a mobile device, longer battery life. Also, more megahertz doesn't always mean more speed. Early leaked benchmarks show the g2 blowing the nexus one out of the water, even though its clocked at 1ghz.
is it faster then the new Galaxy? I'm considering Getting this, but if It's can't beat the The galaxy I may as well switch carrier's and get an Epic. Both are 4G-ish, Both have a KB. both are about the pricing plan. only difference to me is the speed.
On a television you can play your computer. Just plug the TV to the computer, I think all TVs have VGA, DVI, HDMI inputs. Then buy a controller and play all the games you like.
Yeah then get stomped because everyone else uses a mouse and keyboard.
The whole point of a console is everyone gets handicapped.... or in sony's case knee-capped
This theory never really made since, How many other impacts cause this kinda of geomorpholgy? Plus this idea was put forth before the discovery of the hotspot off the Yucatan.
While I'm not discounting that the asteroid in question most likely cause an extinction event, I doubt it could rip a plate in two.
Also Just about every Tectonic model puts the formation of the Gulf starting to tear apart around Early Jurassic , Whereas the impact in question was around the Late Permian.
Why do people think that jet fuel is some futuristic stuff? It is basically kerosene.
A not so big secret is that jet engines became popular, not because they were super-efficient, but because they could burn crappy cheap jet fuel. Thus a less efficient jet engine could run faster and cheaper than a piston-engined aircraft.
well... modern jet fuel is a little bit more complicated then this. Deicing agents and the such.
Well a train analogy would be a lot easier, the whole multiple engines sort of make since there, But I'll give the car analogy a go:
Processor Speed: Compression ratio
Multiple Cores: Number of Cylinders
On die memory controllers: 4 Wheel drive differential
Cache: Rim Size
L3 Cache: Tire Thickness
Shared L3 Cache: Flying Cars?

Kinda like the Battle.net authenticator

800 cores.... that's like 134 CPU's, With 4 CPU's per node, it's only 34 Nodes. A rack holds 48u.
So they have a problem that takes more then one rack of modern computers to handle?

Don't we call those "graphics cards"?
Has Intel ever made a quality graphics coprocessor?
I'm curious where you got this from...
Does it also explain why sushi is so tasty?

Relevance of all that?

Or you can wait 6 months at get one with 2x1GHz on a smaller process. You have to give up on waiting and get something eventually.
You mean I can't use my 528 MHz dream forever?
800Mhz.... or i can wait 2-3 months and get one with 2x1Ghz.....

It takes less than 30 seconds now, for those of us running on hardware more advance than an 80286
It takes more then 30 seconds for a 486 to index a TB of porn... And thats even with turbo
Except hotspots have forced apart other plates.

A lot of people don't realize the gulf of mexico was formed by a giant hot spot like yellowstone.
tax levied on blank media sold in the U.S
is an unenforceable tax still considered a tax?
If you walk into a dealership ready to spend >$10,000 based on a window sticker and some pamphlets, I've got a perpetual motion machine to sell you.
I built a perpetual motion machine for way less $10,000.
umm... You don't check out a 150lb book, it stays at the library and you go to it.
Yo' know, I don't mind George Orwell scenarios as much I mind Franz Kafka scenarios.
