Subject: RE: [H] 06 tech predictions?
AMD has an incredible start to the year; Intel comes out in the 3Q with
the
chip they should have had years ago, and battles back, AMD trails 3Q/4Q
until QuadCores make a "limited" release in Dec. 06.
This is not a prediction but why can't home computers level out in
performance like cars did? True, the newer cars get more MPG than the older
ones and now a 4 cylinder is adequate for small cars and Interstate speeds.
I would love to see a self-repairing Windows that never needs reinstalling
and enough security for adequate protection. But isn't our hardware fast
enough for normal computing needs? My P4 3.0 GHz sure is! For about 3 years
I have been happy with it. I am not sitting here now wishing it would run
faster.
