- New Core 2 Duo E7400 launches on October 19th - Just like the
current Core 2 Duo E7300,
the new chip
will have a pair of 45nm cores, 3MB of shared L2 cache, and a 1066MHz
front-side bus. The E7300 currently retails for around $140, but since it
runs at only 2.66GHz, Intel will reportedly drag it down to $113 upon the
E7400's arrival.

At ~$140, this

So, when will
the LHC start actually colliding particles? Not for a while, the New
Scientist explains. "It will be several weeks before physicists accelerate
two proton beams travelling in opposite directions to their full energy of 7
teraelectronvolts, and smash them head on."
- Large Hadron Collider Hacked -
The hackers were stopped before they could access the Collider's central

recognized her from the television comedy My Name is Earl.
