  7. due to computing power catching up with software on Laptops Outsell Desktops · · Score: 1

    people (most people) who just browse, use office, email..etc. dont need more than the computing power available around year 2000. so a typical 2005 laptop is going to have a typical 2003 desktop computing power for about ~$1000. we're still waiting for the next big computing resource hog: real speech recognition.

  25. it'c called a PC on Inside the Games Machines of the Future · · Score: 1

    standard hardware: PC's
    standard subhardware: PCI, AGP, USB, ..etc.

    Standard OS software:
    Windows
    Linux

    I think it's amazing that different kinds of PC hardware can run games at all. Yes, alot more can be done; but much more has already been done. I think we need to work on software that runs independent of the OS.
    Just as OS should be hardware independent, we need to develop software that is independent of the OS.
