Damnit, no time to get into multiprocessor CPU rant.

Let's just say this is the stuff that is in the next-gen gaming consoles and is already being used in CS research labs. *cough, cough*

I hope Volta/SOAD tix don't sell out before I get back. Par would be bummed.

Yes I heard of them. Got there disc at HMV. Got it because the cover looked cool.

Hey, have any of you guys heard any Snow Patrol?

I'm totally hooked on them right now...

Intel is going from single to quad-core with their processors (as in 4 harnessed processors on one board!). Dual-core CPUs are available this summer. The quad-core CPUs will be out in a year or so, and they will be 64-bit processors as opposed to the currently available 32. By 2007, multi-core CPUs (ie: more than 4) will likely be common.

Furthermore, I heard that the new windows OS (codenamed "longhorn") that is being developed anticipates 1 terrabyte HDDs, dual-layer DVD burners, 6 gigahertz processors, and 1 gigabit ethernet. Holy shit, talk about broadband!!! Computers of the near-future will be insane.


Funny thing is, I was just thinking the other day about how sad it is that computers don't seem to be developing as fast as they used to be... I mean, I used to get excited on a regular basis hearing about how fast the new CPUs would be when I was in junior high and to an extent high school... but lately it's been really slow. Fortunately, if the specs of next-gen CPUs are anything to go by it seems like this recent lull is only a temporary phenomenon.

Good luck with that... I'm staying south side though
Soz.
