Not true (in all cases anyway). I have a Dell L702x laptop which has a UEFI bios and it gets to the windows loading screen within a couple of seconds. When I first got it it was something which pleasantly surprised me so I still remember it. If they make UEFI more common on desktops I hope they add more options to it however because in the dell theres hardly anything there for the user to configure. I can't even set the num lock to boot off.
Proof that such an agreement exists please. (an online article would suffice). Autocad is the only program thats keeping me on XP and I would be peeved that they're not allowed t port it over to other OSes. I remember prior to r12 Autocad came with a dozen or so different exes.
surprised yet glad to see Sony finally embracing new(er) technology for delivering music.
I remember reading an article on Wired about the civil war going on inside sony. The hardware side wants to build music devices giving consumers the features they want, while the entertainment (music/movies) side wants to restrict what consumers can do with their content.
quoting from the article, Keiji Kimura the vice VP at Sony headquarters in Japan, said this on the ipod "We do not have any plans for such a product," says Kimura, the smile fading. "But we are studying it."
I for one am excited about this product. More competition in the HD based protbles can only be good for consumers
What onboard sound do you have? The on chip sound on some nforce2 boards (mcpt I believe the chip is called) is often compared on review sites to the Audigy.
If they needed new carpeting and painting in the first plae but couldnt get the funds for it, I don't think it's that bad as it would have been funded by the gov't anyway.
Or maybe they'll get pissed off enough not to buy the cds. I can't see how they're going to successfully stop people from sharing the cds.. not cds in their current format anyway.
If the person you trust has a clue about about computers he would suggest using Spybot Search And Destroy to remove malware as well.
I know you are a troll but I dont want others to be deterred from using Spybot Search And Destroy. A quick search on Google will tell anyone if Spybot is malware or not.
If its a year old then theres good chances its from a batch capable of doing 3200+ mhz. My 2500+ on an Abit NF7-s can. Runs blazing fast in games and CAD work. Give it a try if you have Nforce board. You may be able to squeeze even more performance out of that machine you love.:)
PCI cards will be turned right side up. i.e. the transistors and chips will be on the top instad of on the bottom like they are in ATX cases. Having them on top will help with cooling.
Others have mentioned the cpu socket being closer to the front of the case.
I wouldnt get excited about ituntil I see it though. If the best apple and its close competitors can do is in the $500 range I can't see MS being able to do better with something just as good as the Ipod without making a huge loss on each unit.
they're either trying to pull another xbox or this is vapourware. The article also only says it wouldmatch ipods 'look and feel' so the third option is it doesnt match the ipod in size, features and storage space.

why pay for a os when you could get one for free from google. Also what about the basic phone market? Not everyone wants a smartphone.
Know your market!!!
Mod Parent up. Add in a multi voltage tranny and Sony could make 1 ps3 model for all

or maybe hes trying to spend all his loose change before his wife does! ;)
Hey at least it's not in WMA. chug chug chug...
They do relate. You can't trademark something you don't have the copyright to
It's to discourage trading of warez

You can use it on a PC - but note that the windows key (command key) is out of place.
:)
As an FPS gamer, I see that as a blessing

that sounds similar to the situation with WMP

I think it looks gorgeous. If the price is right I'll definately be picking one up. ogggg.... mmmmmmm
agreed. and on portable devices, Akai has been doing it for ages.

hot dog + cheese (2 minutes nuked)
Ramen noodle (cooking time 2 minutes nuked)
frozen lasagne (10 minutes nuked)
grated cheese on bread (5 minutes toasted)
pasta mix (12 minutes nuked)
potato salad straight out of the tub (instant!)
and of course the chips and biscuits
Did anyone else read that as dickless drives? Man I think I need glasses.
$50 is the price of MS's supposed offering.
