Well, you happen to be wrong. And luckily you aren't any source of valid information on the internet, or else we'd be in trouble!

The servers that were overloaded with pirates were the update and login servers, dumbass. The ones that check to see if you have a valid serial number before they respond, get it now? When over 100 thousand pirates started wanting updates and online play, the login server had to check and deny every single one of them, which is what brought down the servers the *first* time. The login server didn't have the same issues after that, because they added a beefier system, and sent flagged pirates over into a shittier server network so their DDoS could affect something unimportant and sandboxed.

I recommend you go read the Demigod blog if you actually want to know what is going on, but you could also continue spewing your uninformed idiocy, that might be fun too.

Nehalem cores are insanely huge, they wouldn't be able to fit very many on Larrabee. Pentium core designs can be modified with certain useful updates, and they are much smaller than Nehalem cores, meaning many more of them can be placed on Larrabee. This is all about parallelism, so in this case more cores is better than better/faster/larger ones.

You forgot to mention the 40% off deal for Left 4 Dead this weekend.

It's kinda a big deal ^_^

Lol, no. You are just being silly at this point.

I am sorry for being a total dick (I was definitely being a dick), but I can't stand it when people just say, "DO IT BETTER!" If they could do it better, don't you think they would?

Ad hominin attacks are pointless and immature, but you are an idiot.

Tell me, who is going to pay for this 8-core, power guzzling monstrosity? Outrageous = Unstable = Nobody buys.

What are they AFRAID OF? Going bankrupt, that's what. They already discovered with the 4870 that building a piece of hardware for the mainstream and scaling it up later is much more cost-effective than building a massive piece of hardware and ATTEMPTING to scale it down later. Why do you think Nvidia was never able to release any mainstream GPUs based on the GTX 280/260 core?  

Just build a super high end CPU? What are you, 8 years old?

Why don't you go do it, you wuss.

Windows XP and Windows Vista will allow you to use all 6GB of your ram, you just need to install the 64-bit versions instead of the 32-bit versions. 

If you want all 6 of your GB for Windows 7, be sure to buy the 64-bit version.

Scuse me? I'm a VERY serious PC gaming enthusiast, and my gaming system is a Macbook Pro running Vista. 

I use an external keyboard and mouse (and sometimes an external screen), but it performs perfectly when running at native resolution (1440x900).

So PLEASE drop it with your bullshit.

Paul, please fix the error.

You are a dick.

I think I'll keep pirating your mom.  

(This is a reply to the guy who said he is pirating EA anyway)
