AMD said near $5.5 bln deal to buy ATI
What do you mean? How did Intel compete with ATI and nVidia? Same goes with AMD? Up until now, it's been Intel versus AMD, and ATI versus nVidia. Now it's Intel versus AMD, and ATI (the video branch of AMD) versus nVidia. If AMD wants to make it so that nVidia chips don't work well with AMD processors, then that's a fast track to cutting off huge chunks of your marketshare and filing for Chapter 11. We didn't even see it with Intel chipsets back in the day when AMD made clone processors, as well as the K6 processors. And if there would have been a perfect time to do it, it would have been then! I'm also not sure how feasible it is for the processor to behave differently with different video cards in. AFAIK it's more a chipset issue.

Athlon64 prices slashed today!!
I was under the impression that they were a response to the Conroe.

I think Gomez is underrated personally.

I'd be much more concerned with video cards not working with motherboard chipsets than video cards not working with CPUs. And that hasn't really been an issue.

I blame the world jump day people.

Probably something similar to you using an ATI chip with an nVidia motherboard chipset.

Meh, you and me both. If you wait though, you'll always be waiting. Just bad luck.

I think this is a good thing personally.

Why wouldn't you say he's a top line center? He was far and away above a point per game all season, including the playoffs.

Information on Digipen
I'm not sure. I have heard some people say it's too specialized, but IMO they didn't strike me as non partisan.

Everyone running their silly AC units blowing out grids.

Hardware would probably castarate me!

We had a thundershower last night in Stony Plain. Plus some additional rain at around 4. Very soothing to go to sleep to

I'm playing "Sweet, my workstation is not working and I have to wait for hardware to fix it!'

At the same time, there's also the possibility that technologies will then be shared that can improve both ATI graphics cards and AMD CPUs. I don't think it's a stretch to think that ATI improved when it acquired ArtX or nVidia when they acquired 3dfx.

But your face is getting 75 mm shells fired at it. Or well, it should be.

Meh, we're a balmy 90 degrees up here in Edmonton. It's not much different inside my apartment though.

Have you ever owned a car or a house? The more you pay, the MORE likely it is that something will go wrong with it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I disagree. The more you pay, the more likely you'll actually take notice when something will go wrong with it. I find a lot of the time, when I go cheap when paying for something, I tend to get much more problems. I had plenty of cheap toys while growing up. They only cost a few bucks though, so replacement was a moot point. My Nintendo far and away outlasted the rest of my toys, but once it got problems, it "sucked" because I had spent $200 on it.

The only thing that would make me love Total War more would be a MP Grand Campaign. I'd seriously buy multiple copies of the game just to give the company more money. And my "comments" during registration would indicate that I bought many copies specifically for the MP Grand Campaign!
