Chrome Extension of the Week: Speed Dial
Posted 01/27/2010 at 04:05:41pm
Yeah. Unfortunately speed dial kills your theme. So you'll have to pick a background instead.
I can't seem to get the resolution right on that background to look like yours Murph. Any advice?
Everything You Need to Know About Nvidia's GF100 (Fermi) GPU

If that is the market segment Nvidia is focusing on then good for them, but they shouldn't be in business for very long if they are. I am sure high end cards account for less than 5% (probably even less than 1%) of the market. There is some money to be made in that market, but only if they leverage it with other mainstream products. The revenue from the sales of high end cards is just a drop in the bucket of what they make selling midrange and low end components.

I bet 3DFX thought the same thing back in the day.
While sounding impressive and everything I don't think this is the approach Nvidia should take and definitely not the product the market needs. It sounds like Fermi will just price itself out of the market.
A Ferrari outperforms a Toyota in every way, but who has the most cars on the road?
Most people shop based on performance/price ratio. Most people would not need or can afford this type of product.

AMD and Intel to Settle Civil Suit
Posted 09/28/2009 at 11:03:13am
There are so many holes in your logic I was really debating whether to bother posting anything at all.
Regardless of who makes the better product if a company uses illegal methods like intel did to gain an unfair advantage then there is a problem. OEMs did not use intel chips because they were better than AMD's (which is not the point here) but because Intel paid them not to use AMD chips. You don't see a problem with that?
In a world with no laws to regulate how business should be conducted a company with the resources that Intel has can drive a smaller company like AMD out of business by shady practices like this. Even if AMD manufactured the best CPU on the planet, Intel can still put them out of business if they offered OEMs something like $100 (arbitraty number) for every Intel CPU they order instead on an AMD one.
And guess what, if AMD goes out of business Intel has virtually no competition in the CPU market. They can sit on their laurels, start producing mediocre chips again and charge whatever they want for them because the consumer has no choice in the matter. Which is a great scenario for Intel, but a really really bad one for all consumers.Even Intel fanboys.
