especially when viewed on a PC (image resolutions similar to HDTV)
The Bitrate Limits of DVD Video technology causes bottle necks in some action scenes
MPEG-2 is extremely dated , newer format can retain the same picture quality in as little as Half the Bitrate
My HDTV Tuner has better image quality than many DVDs
TV Series especially get hurt by the lecacy of DVD's
100 DVD Star Trek Set anyone?
id rather 10 DVD Set anyday
But i do understand some people like DVD
I still like Records over CD's
my mate still likes VHS because he feels it looks better on his TV:S
Another mate still prefers his N64 over any later consoles

A motherboard box with the clear label 64bit compatible
Access the CD bang absolutely NO windows X64 drivers included
took 2 hours to install Audigy X64 Drivers (creative claims unsupported) you must have previous drivers installed to use this Installer.
TV card didnt have X64 drivers
The mainboard website had nothing much NIC and Sound
my Canon Printer didnt have X64 drivers
Battlefield was acting up ATI drivers were sub par
and to top it the problem with Windows Failing to use more that 2GB ram still existed.
X64 Fedora Suse10.0 and Mandriva 2006 all installed all the above hardware , and it used all resources far better than 32bit Linux Distros
Windows has reset their position of,
Best driver support available
and Linux has taken the crown for now.
The Pentium EE has a 169mm/sq die size, the AMD 199mm/sq.
theres you competitive advantage.
P EE used to have a die size of over 200mm/sq
which plates them less processors from expensive wafers
and overall production costs increase over AMD. 199mm
so AMD was capable of more chips per wafer
Intel shrinking to 169mm means they can either lower the $1000 price tag or make a larger profit per processor sold.
P.S i cant really say how much the entire manufacture of a processor costs, however i can imagine the Athlon X2 series cost more to make that twin Core Pentium D series
SOI, elegant dual core design compared to Intels twin core (2 presscott glued onto one ceramic chip.
fool i am aware that clock isnt the only thing.
however if you thought before speaking
Intel P4 needs High Clock speeds to negate
since its lack of Floating Point and IPC performance
a future P4 at 10ghz may have negated the crappy perforance, and considerably outperformed beyond 3.2+ghz Athlon 64
While Athlon XP outperformed P4 at lower speeds for a long time
once p4 reached 3ghz that was the point p4 3hz negated the disadvantage of crappy performance.
P.S i own 3 Athlons my purchases were based on performance not clock
dont ever accuss me of such things ever again.
the AMD gods will question me
im pretty sure he is refering to
everytime you veiw/download a page from the internet say that contains a copyrighted image
bang you'll copied/downloaded copyrighted materials If your a Proxy Server you are not permitted to transmit it either Unlawful redistribution
i'd rebute the claim
Since you beleive making Copyright content accessible to other is illegal
then Inherently playing the radio or listening to a CD is illegal
you have made it available to others and you are liable when
Someone captures the sound waves with a microphone
P.S i am aware Radio stations are permitted to broadcast due to license fees
But are we allowed to broadcast copyright material from our sound system?
Intel Rushed 65nm to aid and lower the cost to make The Pentium D Die Size is huge compared to a comparable Athlon X2
65nm also needed to possibly squeezed more out of Prescott.
Pentium M has mostly identical fundamental functions as AMD Athlon 64/Turion
similar Memory bandwidth, power consumption, IPC appears the same 10 IPC
The Pentium M also has a very simple characteristic aiding lower power usage
higher grade transistors, which adds to its price, so AMD may follow that suit in future also
The turion at equal clock is equivilant to Pentium M with equal watt ph however, combination of the elegant well thought out Centrino platform and DDR2, lower PM systems's overall power consumption
true Windows X64 truely is poor at utilizing AMD 64 and EMT64.
but my linux Desktop excels with 64bit compared to 32bit. Vista will probably be better.
and 32 bit OS can even use
my 4GB is limited to 3.4 in WindowsXP and 32bit linux.
dont forget minimum recommended RAM now is 1-1.5GB hypothetically mid-late this year 2-2.5GB, could possibly quickly jump beyond 4GB next year.
P.S in the Windows X64 Drivers , lots of obsolete functions where found, Lecacy buses, ISA VESA and Parallel devices. How many P4 and AMD64 systems have ISA VESA and/or Parallel interfaces.
as far as i can tell X64 was a patchwork rush job by MS
its a bit of a shame really
Netburst was expected to reach 10ghz
with SOI , high quality transistors (such as they use in Pentium M) and 45nm Process
Possibly could have made the Netburst start Ticking.
Intel Producing a product very similar to AMD ( 10 IPC) pegs the X86 static again.
no choice between the long Pentium 4 Pipe takes variety and options from the market.

now you'll have 2 Brands one possible task, the other tasks forget it you have no options
I think the moral high ground isn't to get into bed with a facist country for the sake of money. But I can see why Google fans would want to spin that in a positive way. Yes, Google could have done worse. But they're still aiding and abetting the Chinese government.

go forbid they release something innovative
hense have nothing to kill

what ever happened to the Google killer?
what ever happened to the Firefox killer?
We all know what happened to the Netscape Killer it became rundown and unsupported.
basically i wouldnt trust sparkle since if it becomes standard in a few years it will have poor support and absolutely no significant upgrades from MS

well until FireFly comes along and steals a chunk of market share.
Not ethically different from someone who doesn't have the money for a CD he wants so he steals it from Walmart. Either way, it involves desire for something (in this case the desire to view/hear media) without the means to pay for it and an unethical decision to steal it.
I hate those analogies.
view/hear
Can you View/Hear a Compact disc?
i sure as well can't it is an inanimate silver piece of plastic
on top of which cannot legally be used on portable devices
I use Linux and LibDVDcss because i have to.
Libdvdcss2 allow you to stream the DVD (basically temporary copy it as you watch it.
thats copying but does that mean i'm stealing a second copy from walmart?
Given that the MPAA's intent isn't financial gain and that the whole situation may rise above the level of trading barbs through the media into legal action, making a copy may be justified.
it will be interesting to see if that holds up since the majority of people who download movies do so without intent to gain financially.
MPAA had no reason to copy a movie to review it.
Most reviewers dont get a personal copy of a movie to watch they have to go to the cinema along with everyone else.
Great publicity has sprung from lawsuits against reviewers that released DVDscr and SCReeners by Awards reviewers
MPAA at the end of the day are reviewers plain and simple they watch the film and give it a grading
Do you Really Need to Copy It To Watch it?
MS how hard could it possibly be not to tease other companies and just about ripoff their names?
First Avalanche - Torrent
now Sparkle - Flash
you gotta be kidding me
shocking who would have thought a dual core would beat a single core Turion
i'm shocked and bewildeered my life has been thrown upside down.
I'm guessing AMD is holding off for DDR2 before releasing Dual Core Turion
dont forget Toms Closing Statement
Microsoft's new Vista operating systems and Office suite, because both should include massive 64-bit enhancements. And who wants to be stuck with a notebook twelve months from now that can't handle 64-bit programs?
i wonder if Intel Rushed to Netburst
They could have improved P3 by doing like AMD add Dual Data Rate bus or the quadpumpedthey had available.
Alone the last Pentium 3 Tualatin was a great chip very competitive to Athlon but they scraped it to make way for P4 yuk!!
if they kept netburst on ice till.65nm or.45nm
now basically to release it
it may have been more successful and reached the target they aimed at 10ghz by 2007
which would perform considerably well despite smaller IPC the higher clock would compensate
thats strange My HDTV , didnt have trouble recorded HD streams on my Duron 1ghz with crap ram.
not to mention little CPU usage
hardware mpg2 is more common than you seem to believe
it ran extremely cool compared to comparable Pentium 4's ive seen
but the XP died at a 600mhz over clock (2.1ghz) it ran for hours but once i shut it down in never booted up again.
i now have an Athlon 64 X2
setting it up, the fan is just so quiet i couldnt telling if it was even running or not
note it chews through folding project 5x as fast as my old XP
Slashdot Mirror
oops DVD = approx 1.3MBs
ow long will it take for 25-45 gigs?
probably not long at all, remember that we all felt that way when Zip Disks, CD's DVD's were released.
CDs 700MB were 1 speed 150KB/s
eventually 48x, 7,200KB/s 3 minutes to fill
remember that DVDs were 1 speed 600KB/s
eventually 16X 18,000KB/s 5minutes to fill
claims place BRay and HDDVD at around 2000KB/s?
16X 32,000KB/s is eventually Bluray is more than thinkable
time to fill 13 Minutes.
So it will just scale to current levels
I dont find DVD picture quality to be crash hot anymore

AMD doesnt have a lot of money so isnt going to rush something if they dont need it.
If Pentium M makes inroads on AMD they too may rush and push IBM to make 45nm Athlons early.
