(note that its not a tip, but the site once published them - (mouseover the full address)
and why does that matter? because its completely irrelevant.
and so is eds big "tip" on the $150 quadcore.
if anything - he needs a tip.
a $150 quadcore is completely irrelevant (now were getting somewhere!)
and its not because the software we have to take advantage or four cores comes bundled with duke nukem. - NO! (thats too optimistic)
but it is because he makes way too much of intel verses amd, without looking at the obvious.
they are both becoming "big iron" (thats to say they are making themselves irrelavent with this core-cache-chip-price-war thing when they are basing their companies on something NO ONE CAN EVEN USE - and i would love to be proven wrong but its holding water so far)
raise your hand if you have an IBM computer right here and right now (not in your closet, but on your desk!)
raise your hand if you can sit and respond through software that makes good use - no.. even fair use (whoops! fair is illegal - sorry) okay - poor use of eleventeen processors.
(that would make your location the basement of a server room in a university with a thousand pound machine inside the room with you)
if big iron falls in the middle of the forest, how many overclockers and technology writers will be there to lap up its pool of blood?
so where are you all?
where is the little iron?
where is the power of eleventeen?
ten thousand chickens (verses the single ox - as in plowing a field)
are coming, but they arent cores.
they are companies.
lilliputians.
eleventeen thousand of them.
and if i had to guess - they wont fail to deliver, and thats something intel and amd havnt figured out just yet.
they wont sell pie in the sky technology just because its juicy.
theyll sell useful technology because it smells like dirty socks and scares small children.
children that have been eating clean socks and technology hallucinations since they were born.
the children will get confuzed and have colic with the sudden diet of reality.
think of the children.
