Via Nano

Who really cares that it runs Crysis?

This like taking a smartcar which is economical and town sized, and then strapping a JATO unit to it and saying "look it can do 200mph".

This is as irrelavant as it is absurd - everyone knows they should have used an ATI card to at least make it plausible from a power consumption perspective... LOL.

Impressive

Atom is a bit of a dud, but this is impressive for such a low clock/powered x86 processor!

Impatc to AMD desktop market?

While everyone is focused on how this Via will stack up against Atom... why has noone asked how it will stack up against a cheap AMD dual core? AMD appears to be targeting the low end desktop which is right where this could end up?

I don't think people understand the purpose of the Atom - the first gen is really MID application with some spillover into the ultra low end desktop/notebook. I see the 2nd gen being the serious product for the lowend CPU market.

Let's have some perpsective here the 1.8GHz nano is rated at 25Watts, th atom it is being compared to is ~1/10 the TDP

Just a thought...(probably not a very good one)

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
