Intel's 65nm Process

It seems apparent that Intel is well on the way to creating processors that can rival AMD’s X2 processors. Their new 65 nanometer process capability seems to allow for an overclocked speed of 4.5 Ghz. This means that a stock clock could end up being in the range of 4 Ghz, but not any time soon.

Why do Intel's fans still hold out hope in reaching 4 Ghz without overclocking?

Mac's Dual-Core System

Mac has finally released it's dual-core system months after AMD and a few weeks after Intel. I find it funny how Mac always comes up with 'new' technologies last. Anyway, it appears as the the G5 will be getting a face-lift. The new Mac dual-core system will consist of two 2.5 Ghz cores operating at a solid speed of 5 Ghz. However, the processor is made by IBM. So there is no threat to the X2 losing popularity among the 1337 gamerz.

Do you think this 'new' development by Mac will cause more consumers to buy their products?

AMD 3Q Results

The company known as Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has released their third quarter results today. We know that AMD creates the most powerful and reliable computer processors in the world. This fact has become even more apparent during the past few months; especially due to their release of the Athlon 64 X2 series of processors. Over 1.5 billion dollars worth of AMD products were sold over the past few months. As amazingly high as that number soundz, it has been predicted that the 4Q of this year will show a 13% gain. Which means that for the last quarter of the year 2005 roughly 1.7 billion dollars worth of AMD products will be sold. In addition to this great news this related issue is even more pressing.

Do you think AMD can surpass the 2 billion dollar mark by the end of 4Q 05?

Video iPod

A Video iPod. That's very interesting. Congratulations Apple, you've just created a Pocket PC. I don't know why you would buy a video iPod when you could go buy a Pocket PC for about the same price. Let's see; a mobile meant for viewing media, or a mobile meant for miscellaneous uses...

Why do you think Apple procured a media player such as the Video iPod?
