WEll, sir, I have an AWESOME tid bit for you. IOS Hunter - DOWNLOAD IT NOW. IT can search the internet to find most any IOS.
I have an entire DVD of IOSes that I got off usenet. I'm with you, fuck cisco. There's always a way around something. You just have to know where to look:)
Calm down on the ATI front there. The initial chips probably will be lucky to do 3.2 (until the process becomes more mature obviously). Most people will take an 8800 over the ATI any day. Not disagreeing with most of the IQ things, but the 8800 is a slam dunk on price/great perf. And anyone worth the balls in their sack doesn't use a synthetic benchmark as an effective argument for actual perf. Go ahead and load up a game on those top O/Ced vid cards. At a decent resolution (not the crappy defauly 1280x1024), the nvidia card is going to pull away the higher the res goes.
You sir, are an idiot. Now STFU.
This IS NOT XP x64s fault (which runs the best out of any OS they've made, performance and reliability wise).
I installed the demo and guess what? It didn't work. But also guess what? I AM USING XP 32-bit. I replaced the exe and it worked fine.
DUMB FUCKS! Don't post if you don't know wtf you're talking about.
Actually, the Turions do use less power than P-M (MT won't). The ML's TDP is 25 watts (AMD is conservative on TDP, Intel is not). They use around 17 watts, I believe. Not a significant difference, being P-M will only be few watts higher, but the CPU is not why the laptops suck at battery consumption. It's all about the chipset, ram, and wireless. Inhell has lower power chipsets, DDRII is lower power, and you can turn off the wireless if you don't need it. I think I've seen one AMD laptop with a wireless power button, but it didn't work.
I'm buying a Turion laptop for a friend and plan to help resolve the power situation by undervolting the CPU. Hopefully I get a good chip. Wish me luck:P

what should also be on the summary is that it was bumped up to coincide with Intel's paper launch.
ROFL, you should get points for that!
