Nationalism is the main threat for destroying the European Union. And that is not going to be good for the Greek people, not for people in other countries. Is a win-win vs lose-lose situation. Please, everyone, more brain and less nationalism.
Please, focus. I don't know what "the market" need. I know what *I* need to buy from you again:
Netbook: 2-core CPU/APU at 2GHz with decent IPC for 30 USD
Laptop: 4-core CPU/APU at 2-2.5GHz with good IPC for 60-70 USD
Desktop: "PS4 on a chip" with twice the CPU frequency for 90-120 USD
Note that, in comparison to ARM CPUs, x86 SoCs are *crazy* overpriced. There are superb ARM SoCs for just 20 USD. WTF are you doing selling similar consumer-grade chips for 100 USD??
Network latency is going to keep all these remote game solutions as inferior. Even with fiber optic connections becoming widespread is going to be worse than local gaming.
In my opinion, the point of using x86 in order to reuse units from desktop/server CPUs is the base of these experiments. The counterpart is to deal with the x86-mess everywhere. This seems a desperate reaction to AMD's CPU+GPGPU, which also has drawbacks. I bet that both Intel and AMD prefer to keep memory controller as simpler as possible, having a confortable long-run, without burning their ships too early. E.g. a CPU+GPGPU in the same die, with 8 x 128 bit separate memory controllers configured as NUMA (i.e. without channel interleaving/bonding) would be much better, but it would imply expensive chips, motherboards, and more DRAM chips. So I bet we'll have same-die CPU+GPU plus simple memory controller (even with embbeded RAM in 3D package) for the next 20 years (consumer-grade products).
Agree. But I *PAID* for running Linux, and then they *REMOVED* such feature, unless you kept your console out of date, without playing new games (last firmware with "Other OS" enabled is 3.15).
Why to spend power in datacenters when people can use it at home? Other than vendor-lock, is non-sense. Another thing is how scalabe the thing is, etc.
Except for hardcore gamers, in my opinion there is no reason for "low-performing gaming consoles" when in 2-3 years a mid-priced smartphone with HDMI + bluetooth running Android will reach similar results. They can become a platform-agnostic seal, providing what users want from them: Mario stuff and fun family games.
I hope this mean not only first class graphics API porting (e.g. OpenGL), but also production-grade computing API (e.g. OpenCL) without vendor-specific crap (try to rebuild OpenCL stuff with the AMD """""SDK""""").

... and investigate why the patent was filled. In my opinion.
Turbo Pascal 3/4 had not object oriented stuff. "Object Pascal" was introduced in Turbo Pascal 5.5 (link).
... and fill the "Q" letter in their "Alphabet".

It is a mistake to discontinue the NPAPI: there are *lots* of commercial/corporate/etc. plugins using it (!)

No.
"Fuck Everything, We're Doing 4K"... (reference)
So they keep bullying Android device makers with patents, reducing privacy, etc. I see.

That's an example of moral misery. In my opinion.
In South Korea only old people do Low-Protein Diet.

In Europe old people don't expect the Spanish Inquisition :-)
Come on.

After removing the "Other OS" feature in the Playstation 3, which enabled running Linux, I'm no longer interested in your devices.

Fuck buy TrueCrypt.

Visual Studio 2010 was already bloated and brain-dead. TFS sucks and the Git integration is poor. Not worth it, in my opinion.
So they spend millions in developing the IE, including reviews, QA, etc. and they pay such miserable money for bug locating/fixing? Come on.
Metro interfece is nice, but useless without software.
