16 core, mmmm?

What do you mean when you say 16 core?

Are there really 16 cores? Or is this just Nvidia bullshit, possibly to mask their too-hot-too-work gpu's?

1080P on netbook/top is hype

Becasue:
A, they sport very poor sound output, but if you have to connect them to a 1000 USD receiver / speaker set, then why not just spend a little more on the machine in the first place.
B, by the looks of this it doesnt have a BR drive, if so the only 1080P content it would play are the downloaded ones, which change their coding often, so hardware solution isnt always the best.

looks neat

apart of this carrying acer brand it looks really interesting. if it reaches 300 OTD price in US and indeed able to pull off 1080p comfortably i'm probably looking at my next HTPC streamer PC...

then again i might just instead spend 0.00$ and keep using the nf6100 based, amdx2 pc i already have...

AMD Solution? Not yet.

The AMD Netbook has poor 1080p output. Insufficient.

AMD beat nVidia to the gate...

AMD already rolled out it's Neo platform a couple weeks ago in the HP DV2 netbook. And it handle's 1080p with a single core CPU.

Nettop?

To heck with this Net top nonsense. Put the NVidia 9400 chipset in a netbook, keep the rest of the specs the same and sell it for $299 and if it will run Linux, XP, or even Windows 7 well, forget about Apple and the iPhon/iPod Touch.....

INQ Poll

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?
