Nightly Tech Reading - Pentium D vs. Core 2 Duo - tech
(hx) 02:24 AM CEST - Aug,11 2006 - Post a comment / read (4)
  • Pentium D vs. Core 2 Duo - Yes, the Core 2 Duo E6600 is faster than the Pentium D 805. Are we surprised by the winner?
  • TWIN2X2048-8500C5 (DDR2-1066/PC2-8500) 2 GB Memory Kit - These models are not only targeted to both Intel and AMD overclockers but also to regular users that have an Intel CPU running externally at 1,066 MHz and want to match the memory with the CPU external speed to achieve the maximum performance your system can deliver.
  • FSP Booster X3 GPU-friendly power supply - The Booster X3 is a supplementary PSU that slots into a 5.25in drive bay and is used exclusively to power your PCI Express graphics cards...
  • Zalman Reserator 1 Plus Passive Computer Water Cooling System - It's silent, has adequate cooling performance and comes complete with CPU and VGA cooling solutions!
  • Alienware Aurora m9700 SLI laptop - Driven by an AMD Turion64 processor, the Aurora m9700 can also come outfitted with dual 100GB SATA 7200-RPM hard drives set up for RAID0. Finishing all this off is a 17" widescreen LCD outputting a native resolution of 1920x1200 pixels with Clearview Technology
  • Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000 -The lack of detents really hurts it for a gaming mouse although Microsoft excuses this by saying that gamers want corded mice. Not all of us do though. I've got more than enough wires and cords laying around my desktop without adding mice and keyboard wires to the mess.
  • Beyond DirectX 10 - A glance at DirectX 10.1 - It may be a little early in the day to be talking about what happens after DirectX 10 and its supporting hardware becomes available, but seeing as much of the features and principles that will be making their way into the first point release of Direct3D 10 have already been decided upon, Elite Bastards have taken a brief foray into what we'll be seeing in the GPU world a little further down the line:
  • IE7 is basically non-compliant with CSS web standards - IE6 51% IE7 55% Firefox 93% Will this affect Web 2.0?

  • Intel Aims For Open Source Graphics - Intel is hoping to attract customers to its graphics products by going open source with its drivers. Also AMD is strongly considering open-sourcing at least a functional subset of ATI ’s graphics drivers.

  • Hacking Windows Vista - Joanna Rutkowska, the researcher who demonstrated how to bypass Vista's security, made an interesting comment that pretty much sums up my expectations. "The fact that this mechanism was bypassed does not mean that Vista is completely insecure," she said. "It's just not as secure as advertised. [But] iIt's very difficult to implement a 100 percent-efficient kernel protection." In other words, Vista will be more secure than XP, but will still face security problems. Thus, the status quo is likely to continue. That's a bad sign.
  • Free Scanner Probes PCs For Critical Windows Bug - eEye Digital Security on Thursday unveiled free software that sniffs out PCs vulnerable to a dangerous Windows vulnerability disclosed earlier this week
  • Parallels Developing 3D Acceleration for Virtualization in OS X - The company said that while it's not available yet, it plans to introduce 3D acceleration so that those who want to run 3D applications in a virtualized Windows XP do not have to dual boot their Intel-Macs to do so.
  • Weighing a Switch to a Mac  - Ten years ago, if you were a Windows user, the idea of switching to a Macintosh might not have seemed enticing. Today the calculation is different.
  • AOL gives out free .com domains to anyone who asks - The service, by the way, is called AOL My eAddress. AOL says it supports .com or .net domains, up to 100 e-mail identities per domain, 2 GB of storage, spam filtering, and open mail clients such as Outlook and Thunderbird through the IMAP protocol.
  • First Zune Models to Cost $299 - Microsoft reportedly is talking to retailers about its fall launch plans for Zune portable music/video players. The first Zune models, available in three colors, are expected to be priced at $299, according to TWICE (This Week in Consumer Electronics). The rumored Zune launch date is November 14.
  • Thanko BINOCA01 - Binoculars that takes pictures and video - It can record video in AVI format in CIF res at 30 fps and in VGA res at 15 fps.
  • Superb high resolution wallpapers - An excellent source for free backgrounds, sorted by user rating. The images are available in all common resolutions, from 2560x1600 down to 1024x768, and are very diversely themed.
  • Greenland ice cap may be melting at triple speed - The world's second largest ice cap may be melting three times faster than indicated by previous measurements, according to newly released gravity data collected by satellites.
  • Halo Director Announced - Neill Blomkamp will direct the Halo motion picture, to be produced by Academy Award winners Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh under their WingNut Films banner for Universal Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox.

  • Ford Mustang Shelby GT unveiled - For those uninterested in picking up such the 325 hp beast with automatic transmission (available only as such where the GT-H is concerned), the Shelby GT will come with available manual transmission, as well as in different color schemes: black or white with silver stripes.

Many interesting articles today...

Somewhat surprising about IE7, though that page keeps timing out so I can't read the article. Firefox makes coding to w3 standards so easy as was pointed out in a link a couple weeks back.

For the switch to Macs... I've worked extensively with both for the past twelve years or so, in-house graphic design on Macs at a newspaper and a fair amount of freelance work out of my home on a PC. Personal preference is for the PC, for the price of a good Mac one can build a powerhouse PC which has a bit more versatility, i.e. playing games when one should be working.

Rather enjoyed IdiotToys take on the BINOCA01.

For the Greenland article... is anyone really surprised after the snows of Kilamanjaro disappeared? Similar happenings in Antartica, anyone see the article on the BBC news site a week or two back about certain clouds showing up in Antartica that really shouldn't be visible? And no, I'm not a whinging lefty, Snows of Kilamanjaro is just my favorite work by Hemingway.

oh god, i can't believe they're still enable (or actually don't see how important it is) to make a real standard browser
i hope at least they'll support alpha channels in PNG :p

If only Bill were still around to defend it in a delightfully satircal way.

I use Firefox more because I appreciate how it supports nearly everything. IE has too many holes in terms of support. I'm really becoming more and more fond of Firefox as I use it. I also know as I work supporting Web like applications that IE7 is going to causes businesses a lot of money if they try and push it as immediate replacement of IE6. I've said it before but IE7 feels like a cheaply hacked up IE6 with tabs and it's customization is no better than it was before, actually worse in some cases.
