    Monster 6-PC MMORPG Rig Quickens Farming

    I have played eve for several years now, and have met many people in game who make a decent living through the game. CCP, the developers of eve, have a system in place to help convert ISK (game currency) into real world money. This is done through buying and selling of game time cards. They...

    Nvidia Making x86 CPU With Ex-Transmeta Brains?

    We keep hearing about x86 CPUs coming from Nvidia, but nothing more of it. Consumers on the whole are losing as long as we are bound to this architecture/instruction set. Once Intel loses it's grip on our computer progress, we can see greater leaps and bounds in computers.

    Five U.S. Attorneys General Object to Google Deal

    Wow, so states trying to be greedy. What ever happened to "Of the people, for the people and by the people" It should be rewritten to "Of the corporation, for the corporation and by the corporation".

    Shuttle XS29F: Is VIA's Nano Processor Powerful Enough?

    juliomWhy is a dual core CPU being compared to a single core one?... I was thinking the same thing through most of this write-up. Come on Thomas, you can do better than that. Compare comparable equipment. Why not throw an entry level dual core Pentium in for good measure?

    Lenovo, Acer, Sony Targetted in Green Dam Suit

    Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics. Even if you win you are still retarded. This is not a case of patent trolling. This is an active and marketed product being blatantly copied by a foreign power. A company has little to no chance standing up to a government...

    QOTD: Were You Prepared for the Switch to DTV?

    I chose not to switch to digital until the price of the converter boxes comes down to a reasonable price. I refuse to spend government money on an over priced box of parts since it is my neighbor's money that the government took to give to me. Screw that. The converter boxes should only be...

    Fusion-io Unviels PCI-e SSD for Gamers

    If this could get it's price inline with drives suck as the Velociraptor, it would make a big splash. With a $900 price tag, it will be a very slow adoption. I would personally like to see a hybrid RAM/solid state drive with the OS and commonly used files loaded into the RAM on boot up. Then...

    FCC Can Enter Your Home Without Warrant

    So does this mean they can come into my lab when I have my Tesla coil cranking out RF noise? That would suck for them. 400k volts to the head would ruin their day.
