they are being paid to make sure that the it infrastructure that their company works on works AS the company wants it, and in the fashion company wants it.
not microsoft.
no company can accept an outside company dictating it, networking and security procedures within their own network. its actually unbelievable that we're even discussing this.
and dont talk about shit that you dont know zit about.
dx10 only brings improvements to minor lighting conditions - like the shorelines, reflection points where water contacts with the non fluid gaming environment, like ponds etc. that's all about that in terms of game experience wise. apart from that what it brings does not interest gamers at all, but people who work in graphics rendering. not to mention that its possible to create the same effects with dx9, as the famous dx10 hack of Crysis shows.
thats why dx10 hasnt been a selling point for vista, gamers just skipped it by.
ANY post that is even mildly criticizing of vista is modded down. another marketing strategy by m$oft ? like, release in-house fanbois to fight for the product ? maybe that is why 7 is getting good reviews.
i dont know about you but i had to endure hell because of my close social circle's woes induced by vista. be it games be it work be it unthinkable other stuff. and sometimes STILL.
the parent post misses the fact that for dual and more 280 setups, you need a huge case and a kickass power supply. ati 4870s are much easier to fit in a single standard case, and give similar or better performance.
as a self employed developer who runs his own small software shop, i can tell you that such shedules do not work out. there has been many periods in which we worked in cram sessions, overtime for long durations and took days off. doesnt work out. you cant let go of the cumulative stress and wear & tear easily.
moreover it further imbalances the individual's work rhytm. imagine youre working 9 days, 10 hours a day. and then imagine you are suddenly off for 3 days in the next 3. and then again 9.
it will be socially awkward too, you will lose step with the society. while people are resting all around the city, you will be working. and then occasionally while all people are working on a friday, you will be resting.
i assure you the work done while all the world is resting will not be as efficient, and the rest done while all world is working will not feel like a healthy rest.
ALL the supposedly derogative 'facts' you shoved in your nifty little post, is million times better than trying to employ a nation by waging a war in an irrelevant distant land, causing millions to die.
if you still havent realized what that was, its bush & co's employment policy. wage a war in a distant land, pump up credit consumption at home, hey - employment !
the entire world is having to bear the burden, and your country's bankruptcy severely disrupted global economy. bankruptcy, yes. you have SO big a deficit that it boggles the mind. youre running on empty, running on credit and goodwill from other countries you do business with.
and boy, will you have to pay for the adventure neocons did !
and they will take their business elsewhere. there are already more desirable and booming emerging markets to do business with, you know.
worse damage could not be done by the remnant of the neocons who are leaving power, just before they left. and in such a state that the american economy is in, too.
alienating business, despite being in desperate need of business. thats 'conservative' economy for you.
that found no evidence whatsoever for correlation in between violent video games and aggressive behaviour ?
HOW did this Joe Baca find the evidence ?
man. after obama got elected, for a moment i thought there was some hope for better quality representatives in america. but apparently change hasnt come to congress's level yet.
fits into a normal pci e slot, meets atx standards, but you need a shovel to shove it into the case. it leaves not an inch of space left to put anything in.
its not a problem to implement 52342525113 cores. its a problem to implement in cost, size, and power drain that an acceptably priced gamer pc case can accommodate.
the fact that you cant maintain both having a life and posting at slashdot at the same time does not mean that others will lack the capability to do so.
since you have learned this now, you can let go of your middleschooler concept of 'having a life/needing a life' and make room in your brain.

no exaggeration there. vista was that bad.
as if it ever worked. what are they gonna do, sue 5 million people worldwide ? sue 1 million people in THEIR own nation ?
do they have ANY idea, what would such a move do to politics in that nation ?
let them proceed with their stupidity - only a few other things can bring an end to such copyright brutalities in the speed that would do.

that's Steven Jay Blum's fault, not sticking to the original spirit and setting of the character.
you know we geeks love that kind of thing ?
didnt that guy pull off bill and ted's bogus journey ? didnt he pull off matrix ?
notice how on the opposite extreme ends those two roles are ?
if he can pull off extremes, he should be able to pull off something in the middle, with some indiana jones/tough&rough flavor.

it really mesmerizes a gamer veteran like me. odd feeling.
as in all those datacenters saving power through dc, actually receiving the electricity from the national distributing network through ac ?
it will probably flop.

conservatives in your level of extremism are dubbed as extremists in even turkey, and shunned ?
you would really love islamist extremists. they really do talk and act like you do. eggs in a basket.

after all those years of telco induced horror, good news from u.s. government regarding internet at last.

too much mod point handout to anyone that happens to be passing by the site ?

if income is made, it is taxable. if a service is given, it is a service. if a trade has been made (even if items are virtual), it is trade.
same laws and rules applicable with twists.
yea. like the 280s.

so far, nvidia is failing in that respect.
