That means serial would have to be clocked 8 times faster at least to
match paraiiel.
Thanks.

I think cost is the big factor for serial. Serial would have to clock 8
times faster to match IDE.
A 250 gig CF chip costs $1500 while an SD chip is much much cheaper.

Cost is the big factor, period. PCs are commodities, with commodity
pricing. Given the same specs, it largely doesn't

Crosstalk and impedance, but there are other reasons why SATA is better too.
For a
better answer you could have looked it up instead of asking here. e.g.
Very true. It doesn't mean that a new computer is better than the old one
being recycled.
A new twist I heard that Micro Soft is requiring computer vendors to
write their bios so that
only win 8 will boot on them. They want to get rid of Linux.Once a win 8
machine forever a
win 8 machine.

Depends on what you consider better. Most folks think faster, more
powerful, and cheaper is better.

Depends on what you like to do with it. Most computer today are

I have a DVD player for that.
