    If it drains those cells in 90 minutes, they have at least 1A current load... The internal resistance will eat a lot, plus the voltage drop will be much to early.

    90 minutes. 90 FUCKING minutes according to gamasutra. Thats WELL below the "usable at all" limit IMHO. 6h with my Thungsten E is annoyingly short, and i use it only 20 minutes or so a day....

    According to the gamasutra-news, PSP currently has 90min battery life.... Which would mean 40 or 50 minutes if you use rechargebles.
    That would be even worse then the worst expectations.

    But why did ANYBODY believe that just because "they are sony" they could pack that much of cpu and 3d power in a little package and expect to work it a tolerable time with a few batteries?

    Depents on the impact speed. Remember, it will be frozen, so it would be rather hard...
    If the delta_v is slow enough(100 or 200km/h, like when a shuttle would be on docking approach), it will only bounce off.
    If the shuttle crossed patch with such a bit of waste while on its way to another orbit, the differential velocity will be a few 1000 km/h. Thats faster than amour piercing sabot rounds from tanks. At that speed, it isnt important if its frozen waste or thungsten when the target it only light metal alloy and heat shield ceramics....
    It would punch right through the shuttle... it wouldnt "break" it, but put a neat little hole into it.

    errr. We know exacly how they react to fundamental forces like gravity, electromagnetic, strong and weak force.
    Or do you think we could keep them in storage rings (we DO keep them. only a few million positrons at once, but we do) without knowing how they react to the containment field and external forces?

    Antimatter having positiv mass is a fundamental property that has been proven and was never really doubted.

    The problem is that even if they "throw it down" towards earth, the orbital velocity will still be dominating. The initial push will just make the orbit a little more eliptic. Just think about it. they circle the earth in less then 2 hours. thats 20 000 km/h+. If they give it 100 or 200 kh/h boost, that wont even be noticable.
    And the last thing we need is literaly crap punshing holes in space shuttles ...

    Put your head out of ass, shithead.
    You dont know anything about chip revisions, power usage or anything else you are talking about. Most likely you heard the words from your daddy while he brough you home from the retard-center.

    you dont seem to be very interested in disputing how 1.8V 533 DDR2 should consume more power then 2.5V DDR RAM? Do you really think those use ANY other fab process then the existing rams? You know that amd hasnt a northbridge in the usual sense, because the memory controller is already integrated and there is only the agp bridge left, which HASTNT gone through a lot of revisions?
    Btw: Abit boards are here known as premium boards for powerusers.... While asus were good in the good old triton times, they are long gone as top choice.

    Your wrong and right...
    Leds are still only about 1/3 to 1/2 of CFL efficency, but the numbers are about 85 to 116 Lm/W for cfl (with 85 common, 116 is more like picked-sample-in-lab efficiancy), while leds are aorund 25-60 Lm/W (The last 3 years they improved significantly).
    Its simply a matter of where to use them. In many situations leds could be more efficient because they emmit in one direction, whereas CFL has the drawback that about 50% of the light initially goes in the wrong direction...
