  • Core 2 Duo Notebook Processors Launched - According to Intel roadmaps, Core 2 Duo processors will make up for more than 55% of its total mobile processor shipments by early 2007. Additionally, Intel expects that dual core processors for the mobile platform will exceed 95% of its production output -- single core processors are definitely on the way out. One whole day after the retail introduction of Intel's mobile Core 2 Duo processors, the Canadian company has launched a new Radeon Xpress 1250 chipset for Intel notebooks. The chipset integrates DirectX 9.0-class graphics with hardware acceleration support for H.264 video, HDMI output, and TV-Out for video formats up to 720p and 1080i.
  • AMD AM2 4600+ EE 2.40GHz  - From an overclocker/performance perspective, there are better CPU's to choose from. Energy Efficient aside, there are cheaper X2's that should perform just as well. One friend has an AM2 4000+ that is stable overclocked to 3.0GHz with 1.45v.
  • Overclocking Intel Core 2 Processors - How far will they go? - If you want full control over your overclocking which will at the end of the day result in a higher overclock, Core 2 Extreme with its unlocked multipliers, higher starting clocks and higher overclocking ability makes more sense as you can go for a higher bus speed with memory running in a 1:1 ratio to give an overall system boost or simply go for the MHz race and get as much out of the processor to be the king of the hill.
  • ATI's Holiday GPU Lineup Unveiled - At the top of chain of ATI graphics cards is the previously released Radeon X1950XTX and CrossFire graphics cards. Slotted right below the Radeon X1950XTX and CrossFire cards will be the Radeon X1900XT 512MB which will be a carryover product. The Radeon X1900XTX is discontinued and being phased out.
  • RV560-based Radeon X1650XT coming soon - The launch is scheduled for September, together with the RV570-based new Radeon X1950 generation card, again one promising lower-end card.
  • ATI TV Wonder 650 Total Recall - In what appears to be a quick retail turnaround, ATI has issued a major nationwide recall of its ATI TV Wonder 650 graphics cards. Although details of the recall remain unclear and ATI has not issued official reasons for the recall, several readers have emailed DailyTech noting that the TV Wonder 650 cards have begun disappearing from store shelves. Retail chains such as Best Buy were the first to take the new cards off store shelves.
  • I-O Data BRD-AM2B/U Blu-ray disc writer review - Based on the Panasonic SW-5582, the BRD-AM2B/U supports both single and dual layer BD-R and BD-RE media, giving it the ability to store up to 50GB of data or four hours worth of HD video onto a single disc. I-O DATA's new drive can also be used to play Blu-ray Disc movies and can read and write to all major CD and DVD formats, including DVD-RAM.  
    Samsung BD-P1000 May Not Support 50GB Blu-ray -     The good news would be that this is apparently fixable via a firmware update, but this problem is figuring into the delay of not only dual-layer movies, but other upcoming standalone Blu-ray players as well. Firmware update or not, I'm pretty sure early adopting Blu-ray buyers didn't spend $1000 to only be able to read 25GB discs.
  • Sharky Extreme's August video card price guide - The All-in-Wonder Radeon X800 XL 256MB PCIe received the largest cut and fell by $151, while the All-in-Wonder Radeon X800 XT 256MB AGP dropped by $93, bringing these more in line with other AiW and Radeon X800-based cards.
  • Vista Release Will Be January 30, 2007? - According to Amazon all the versions will be released on January 30. Pricing ranges from $99.95 for the upgrade version of Windows Vista Home Basic all the way to $399.95 for the full version of Windows Vista Ultimate.
  • Google Releasing an Office Suite - Google, Inc. bundled e-mail client (Gmail), shared calendaring environment (Google Calendar), instant messaging client (GTalk) and HTML page generator (Google Page Creator) to be used across specific domains.
  • Google to Allow Free Book Downloads - Google on Wednesday plans to begin letting consumers download and print free of charge classic novels and many other, more obscure books that are in the public domain. Using Google's Book Search service, Web surfers hunting titles like Dante's "Inferno" and Aesop's "Fables" will be able to download PDF files of the books for later reading, to run keyword searches or to print them on paper. Up to now, the service only allowed people to read the out-of-copyright books online. Google supports the service by showing its small, keyword-generated text ads on search-results pages.
  • Microsoft Patches Up Windows Media DRM Hack - In a response to an application that was originally reported to allow users to strip DRM encoding from Windows Media files, Microsoft has quickly issued a patch that circumvents the utility. Engadget.com originally reported on a small utility called FairUse4WM able to remove DRM information from WMA files to allow playback on any device. The new update from Microsoft updates the individualized blackbox component (IBX) that exists in PlayForSure.

  • Download YouTube videos directly to iTunes - Using TubeSock you can now download Videos from YouTube, and save them directly into iTunes in a iPod video compatible format.
  • Share Huge Files Online with Gigasize (up 1.5 GB/file) - Gigasize is new on the block, but compared to sites like Rapidshare and Megaupload, it is light years ahead. Without signing up, you can host files up to 1 gigabyte, or sign up to host huge 1.5 gigabyte files. Could sites like this kill P2P networks? /Note: You can also check out MiHD/
