  • AI helps gamers keep on playing - Every computer game player knows that real life can intrude at the most inopportune moments. Just when you are completing a tricky flanking manoeuvre, or have got to the darkest point of a dungeon, the phone will ring, a partner will want to talk or your dinner will be on the table. But Israeli game maker Majorem could have a solution to this problem, at least for players of its forthcoming Ballerium online game. The company has developed an artificial intelligence system that learns a gamer's style of play and can take over and play for them if they have to spend time away from the game.
  • TI aims for single phone chip - Texas Instruments is gearing up to combine all four basic mobile phone functions onto one chip by 2004, CEO Thomas Engibous said Wednesday.
  • Intel has big nano plans - Sunlin Chou, senior vice president of the technology and manufacturing group at Intel, will discuss the company's plans for nanotechnology, or the science of making chips with elements that measure less than 100 nanometers, next Thursday morning at the Intel Developer Forum in San Jose, Calif.

  • Wistron confirms Xbox orders - Ending months of speculation, Wistron confirmed Tuesday it has become the second manufacturer of Microsoft's Xbox and has begun pilot production in China, reported local newspaper the Economic Daily News.

  • 'Blank' display hides computer data - A computer screen that looks blank to anyone not wearing a pair of special polarising glasses has been developed by a Tokyo-based electronics company, Iizuka Denki Kogyo. The company believes the modified LCD monitor will appeal to financial institutions that need to keep sensitive information safe from prying eyes in a busy environment. Only authorised viewers wearing the special glasses would be able to read data on the screen. Anyone looking over their shoulder would see nothing at all. "To others, you would look like someone with sunglasses working in front of a totally white screen," said an official in charge of development at IDK.

  • Sharp introduces theater projector with built-in AV wireless receiver - Sharp introduced on August 27 two theater projectors, one codenamed the XV-Z90S with a built-in AV wireless receiver, said to be the world first of its kind, and the XV-Z90.
  • BitBoys Hardware! - Axe graphics processor is designed for the volume desktop PC market. It supports full OpenGL 1.3 and Microsoft DirectX 8.1 feature set with MatrixAA anti-aliasing. Axe builds on Bitboys patented XBA technology, and a complete prototype chip has been manufactured by Infineon Technologies on their 0.17 micron embedded DRAM process. As Infineon has closed down its embedded DRAM fabrication line, Bitboys will not bring Axe to the PC desktop market. The processor contains over 6 million logic gates and 12M bytes of embedded DRAM memory, working together with external SDRAM memory (up-to 128M bytes). The memory is connected to the graphics engine via a multi-channel memory management unit that provides the extreme bandwidth required by the core pixel processor.

  • $1200 Budget System - Another common ingredient was a 64MB GeForce4 Ti 4200 graphics card. We began with a Visiontek card, but given that company's recent troubles, we've found the MSI Ti 4200 to be an excellent replacement -- and lower cost, to boot. The GeForce4 Ti 4200 really hits the sweet spot in price/performance for a DirectX 8 capable card.
  • GlobalWIN TAK 58 - The GlobalWIN TAK 58 is for AMD Athlon to XP 2000+ and for Pentium 3 to 1,7 GHZ. The special one at which coolers are the very good mounting bracket and the two air fans that shift very slowly and are quiet.
  • X Gaming Ultimate Arcade Controller (video review) - This product is one seriously hardcore authentic controller that puts most other so-called game controllers to shame! Remember what a real arcade control panel felt like? Well this is exactly the same, except you are at home!
  • GF4 TV-Out Guide - TV-Out is a connection on your graphics card that you can use to output images to your television. It looks a lot like S-Video, but the socket itself can vary from graphics card to graphics card. So make sure you don't lose the cable that came with your graphics card. Here's a bit to get things rolling. Using TV-Out you can play games on your television, which many people prefer to do. Also, it can be used for some projectors, and video-capture equipment. This is helpful if you are presenting information to a large audience, or making a video on how to use computers. The most common use for TV-Out is primarily games.

Depending on how you look at it, there is two answers to this question - Let's continue on anyway, even with the possibility of Microsoft pulling a knife to my throat.

Have you never been in the middle of a crucial part in a multiplayer game and had to deal with outside interferences? e.g phone/gf/door etc - there is no pause in realtime multiplayer, and some games stretch on for hours - this could be very beneficial in those awkward moments.
