  1. Ugh, those are some nasty ass Tits. :no: "I wish i had more hands, so i could give those titties four thumbs down"

  2. I found this new information quite interesting.

    IBM, Sony, Toshiba to unveil 'Cell' chip

    Seen competing with Intel, the 'supercomputer on a chip' will power small devices like the PS3

    SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - The highly anticipated microchip that will power the Sony PlayStation 3 video game system will be described in detail for the first time Monday by its developers, IBM, Sony Corp. and Toshiba Corp.

    Dubbed a "supercomputer on a chip," the Cell microprocessor has until now been long on ambition but short on specifics. At a technical conference here, the three electronics giants say they plan to disclose the inner workings of the chip, which is designed to run portable electronics, home entertainment devices and powerful computers.

    Aimed squarely at the "digital home" market highly sought-after by Intel Corp. (Research), the Cell initiative, which has been in development for more than three years, is viewed by some as a formidable, if fledgling, competitor to the world's largest chip maker.

    The Cell chip will appear in the PlayStation 3, the follow-on to Sony's (Research) successful video game console that is expected to be released next year. Cell will likely also be marketed as an ideal technology for televisions and supercomputers, and everything in between, said Kevin Krewell, the editor in chief of Microprocessor Report.

    Cell "promises to be a very exciting challenge to mainstream processors," Krewell wrote in a recent issue, naming it the best chip technology of 2004, remarkable if only for the fact that no one has actually seen the chip in action.

    According to released details, Cell is based on the core of IBM's (Research) existing Power processor line, which is used in desktop PCs made byApple Computer Inc. (Research) Cell contains multiple cores, allowing it to perform like many chips in one.

    It is capable of "massive floating point processing, optimized for compute-intensive workloads and broadband rich media applications, including computer entertainment, movies and other forms of digital content," according to an earlier statement from the companies.

    Sony and IBM have called Cell a strong technology for high-powered workstations and supercomputers, with multiple Cell chips able to work as a cluster.

    "The supercomputer-like processing and performance of the Cell processor-based workstation is just the beginning of what we expect will be a wide range of powerful next-generation solutions resulting from our joint development efforts," Colin Parris, an IBM vice president, said in a November statement.

    If history is any lesson, Cell is by no means guaranteed to encroach on the most successful microprocessor technology to date, the so-called x86 architecture that is the mainstay of the PC world and the profit center for both Intel and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (Research)

    Intel itself once aimed at pushing the x86 technology to the margins with a chip called Itanium it developed at great cost with Hewlett-Packard Co. (Research)

    After a cool market reception, the Itanium project drifted away from those grand expectations. Today, Itanium remains a niche product marketed primarily at the relatively limited segment of supercomputers and high-end servers.

  3. I don't know, i think Iran isn't that big of a threat. G.W.B just wants to invade there to try and gain more eastern territory and oil. Sure there has been the "Idea" of bio,chemical, and WMD's there but that isn't a proven fact, plus in N. Korea it is proven that they are equipped and prepared for a massive attack. The U.S. doesn't want to invade there in fear that it might start and uproar there and something devestating might happen. :2guns::grenade:

  4. :argue: Ok so right now China's economy is booming and they have lots of money to throw around. Russia is thriving also. Russia made an agreement with China and signed a treaty and now are "allied" in a sence. Since China needs oil and Russia has lots of it they exchange that for Grains from China. An army maybe be massing and with this new wealth the combined armies fully equipped they could sweep across the Europe even the U.S. would have a very hard time trying to stop this mass if they could. With the combined forces of the Russians and Chinese the number of soldiers is omonus. Now also if china was ever to be invaded they also have another card to play. Korea they are willing to step up to the plate and back them up, + they have been manufacturing WMD's and still testing them even after the ban. Now doesn't that sound like WWIII in the making??? :tank:

    :gang::biggun:

  5. Hey, yeah i was just reading about that new minimac a few days ago, yeah it doesn't sound that bad. only 500$ also. but it not as fast or a good as a traditional full sized desktop computer. Macs are better for like graphic design though arn't they ?. and they have few programs, mind you they do have Windows to Mac OS translating programs but i think they are a lot of money, i'd have to look further into that. do you know? Now aside from IBM MAC, a custom build i think that would probably be the best way to go. i have a list of stuff to do that but what do you think would be the best to go with then overall? :confused:

  6. Yeah ok so i don't rap or anything but i had some spare time today and felt like makin' some Rhymes G! haha :gang:

    Your Fate

    I sprayed u in the face with mase because u r a disgrace when u failed to say grace. Now you’ll be burn'n in hell asking what’s that smell? It’s your flesh melting off of your shell of a body. U have done this too many times as I sit here busting these rhymes. Ur eyes only tell lies, like when I said the titanic has capsized. O wait that happened, so it wasn't a lie so I’m not gonna die and fry. Instead I’m gonna fly, ill fly to heaven where ill finally be reunited with my friend Bevin, that tried and died with his wife by his side. So my fate is good, but your fate is bad and u shall always be sad never glad wish'n that u had before u had gone mad! :flame:
