wow, this would be a pretty good chipset for a media center box. espcially for playing back dvds and recording tv shows. however I dont think the IGP chipsets will have enough power to play games. anyone who really wants to play games unless its like starcraft or something will probaly need a higher end vid card. hopefully these will also make it into the blade servers and such.
We should blame college advisors and professors. For the most part every professor I have had the joy of learning from as well as advisors all state that most IT jobs will be going offshore. I remember one advisor tell me that I should start thinking about business because in 5 years time all entry to mid level IT jobs will all be worked overseas. This led me to believe working in IT might be futile. If the only way you have to work to the top is to start at the bottom, but at the same time all the grunt and bottom level jobs are already sold to India and the Philipenes then how in the world will I get higher level jobs if there is no where to start from. This makes me wonder if the only way is if you have already been in the industry for 10 years and you are already halfway there.
The worst part about all this offshore worker stuff is that most companies end up spending more on the work because a lot of the time they miss deadlines and give halfed assed work back to the company. Usually this means they have to spend more on time and wages getting the applications developed properly.
I'm not done with this yet - I just have a meeting to goto.
