Welcome to Tabbed Browsing

Blocking my Ip cant prevent me from posting the other side of the global warming idea. Real scientists allow for a counter opinion or set of evidence.

[QUOTE]For more than a decade, Henrik Svensmark of the Danish National Space Center has been pursuing an explanation for why Earth cools and warms. His findings -- published in October in the Proceedings of the Royal Society -- the mathematical, physical sciences and engineering journal of the Royal Society of London -- are now in, and they don't point to us. The sun and the stars could explain most if not all of the warming this century, and he has laboratory results to demonstrate it. Dr. Svensmark's study had its origins in 1996, when he and a colleague presented findings at a scientific conference indicating that changes in the sun's magnetic field -- quite apart from greenhouse gases -- could be related to the recent rise in global temperatures.

Roll out the paper phenoms

November 20th, 2007

Well the launch date has come and gone and the telltale sign at NCIX, AMD’s channel partner speaks volumes about the alledged launch. It will not happen for 2-3 weeks.

When was it ok to unveil a product as launched and deliver it nearly a month later? I am not sure but that seems like false advertisement to me. After 7 years of loyal AMD use I am ready to seriously consider a more reliable offer in Intel chip availabilities; Obviously Intel realizes that a product launch means the chips are in the warehouse at new egg ready to ship.

How many folks are getting notices at the egg for the 3870? I applied for a notice but nothing has turned up since they sold all 20 of the cards as soon as they came in; Wasnt TSMC doing those? Didnt they just buy another fab? Hmm isnt chartered supposedly working on AMD chips? Doesnt IBM work with AMD on MFG solutions?

And all of that and more comes to a paper launch?

I dont care that Phenom doesn PWN Intel quads I dont care that they slowed the transistors with a thickened dielectric layer to sedate increased leakage on 65nm chips due to bieng super ultra late in metallurgical R&D even with samsung and IBM and the massive conglomerate of lithography guys. I think we all know that SOI doesnt like bulk HKMG materials , whatever happened to edram or the nga sdram? it doesnt clock to core or above but below core at 2ghz.

serious issues and crap yields, but add to the embarrasment a launch 2-3 weeks before availability? Dirk, buddy, Thats like hitting yourself in the head with a maul and expecting pepsi to come out of your nose.

I propose the world of enthusiast shun the alledged launch until chips arrive in a month. There was no phenom launch, every one go home there is truly nothing to see.

ISMI Readies 450 mm Test Bed, Wafer Bank
ISMI managers said a test bed to develop 450 mm wafer-handling and interface standards will be established next year in Austin. A wafer bank is also in the works. The moves are part of a strategy to position the 450 mm wafers as a "scale up" from the 300mmPrime program. The announcements came at the ISMI Symposium on Manufacturing Effectiveness.

Intel cuts ribbon on $3B 45 nm Fab 32 in Arizona

The chip giant is officially opening its 300 mm Fab 32 in Chandler, Arizona this morning, representing a $3 billion investment for the company. Not only will Fab 32 produce Intel’s 45 nm processors, including the Penryn family for desktop, laptop, servers and workstations, Intel says the fab is among its most environmentally-friendly and uses a number of energy and water conservation measures.

 

How many neutrons can an atom hold? Three new Mg and Al isotopes created
(Nature News)

Three never-before-observed isotopes of magnesium and aluminum have been created in a cyclotron facility in Michigan. These include magnesium-40, with 12 protons and 28 neutrons; aluminum-42, 13 protons and 29 neutrons; and aluminum-43, 13 protons and 30 neutrons. The results not only stake out new territory on the nuclear landscape, but also suggest that variants of everyday elements might exist that are heavier than current scientific models predict.

New Lab-On-A-Chip Research

Published Thu, 2007-10-25 19:12

Researchers at Cornell University for the first time have integrated optical functions with microfluidic ones, enabling the sorting of particles by light. Reported in the Oct. 29 issue of Optics Express, due out Monday, the Cornell team showcases a new design for a "lab-on-a-chip" structure that provides the ability to move or sort particles using light. In addition to the advance in telecom and datacom applications this brings, the new architecture also lends itself to applications in biodetection, including the sorting of viruses and protein recognition.

Vector Supercomputer, The SX-9

Published Thu, 2007-10-25 14:55 Computers/Servers

The SX series model "SX-9," the world’s fastest vector supercomputer with a peak processing performance of 839 TFLOPS. The SX-9, from NEC Corporation, features the world’s first CPU capable of a peak vector performance of 102.4 GFLOPS per single core.

In addition to the newly developed CPU, the SX-9 combines large-scale shared memory of up to 1TB and ultra high-speed interconnects achieving speeds up to 128GB/second. Through these enhanced features, the SX-9 closes in on the PFLOPS range by realizing a processing performance of 839 TFLOPS. The SX-9 also achieves an approximate three-quarter reduction in space and power consumption over conventional models. This was achieved by applying advanced LSI design and high-density packaging technology.

    media   MEDIA    Usual Media Take: Big Is Bad
    You mean, Intel is above the law? That’s the loaded question the New York Times and the Associated Press and others in the media are asking–apparently in lockstep. Here’s the crux of the issue: the smaller, less successful business is accusing the bigger, more successful business of not playing fair–a beef that has been around since spice merchants competed in Mesopotamia 5000 years ago.

    Dewds note : probably as far back as 5k but the resounding effect was likely a severed head to the small guy.
