Don't get too upset, I did explain my point not 3 posts below... Even if you guys don't follow research in the area of FPGAs, that doesn't mean it doesn't happen...
Oh, And Intel has been around for much longer than FPGAs.
Intel doesn't suck. AMD wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for Intel, and probably nor would be the machine you're sitting at right now. Intel have some amazing guys working for them, and have hosted brilliant minds in the past. Linux may be open source and beautiful in some respects, but it hasn't done for operating systems what Intel have done for processors. Come on, be serious pal.
Intel's plan all along has been to reduce the size of their pipeline stages in order to increase the possible clock rate. However, with the halt of the 4GHz processor, and their new found interest in multicore chips, it'll be interesting to see how they'll compare with FPGAs in the upcoming years since both offer what the other is looking for. Intel want to be parallel, and FPGAs want to be sequentially quicker.
The only difference is that Intel has been researching how to be quicker for a lot longer than FPGAs have been around so the guys at Xilinx shouldn't have too much difficulty following Moore's Law, whereas Intel might have more difficulty expanding into multiple cores since their chips are already huge.
Who will win out in the end? Will Intel start snatching up companies like Celoxica and Xilinx in the coming years?
I think Apple are showing us the future of things to come. However, once the electronics become so integrated into the display, how will Apple products be any more appealing then their PC counterparts? It's like telling LCD's apart... How many of us walk into a store and bow down in amazement at the new style of LCD out?
If you owned a company and were concerned about this kind of practice, surely you could just run the same program over every executable that comes in... destroying the original, but preserving the behaviour
this winds up being too large to show any useful information in a reasonable area (i.e. the size of a screen). I would have thought that expose would be a better solution to this problem...
It says on Google's website that they are currently caching 4285199774 pages... I was just wondering whether they're scared to go over 2^32, Millennium bug all over;-)

No mention of FPGAs?
OSTG is not exactly the best benchmark for the acceptance of Firefox.
