Good lord! I thought I had seen everything!

I think we need a truth and reconciliation commission where the people (excuse me, *consumers*) who bought the Denon cable can bare their souls and accept the constructive criticism of people with greater sense.

It could also be open to people who spend $150 on HDMI cables. And people who buy Apple xServe boxes.

..just wait a coupla months and you should be seeing a Monster Cable-branded version of the ever-retarded Killer NIC. I'd like to know if I can get a F@tality version of the M1 that glows red under the heatsink (which has exclusively also had its K-blade sink sharpened to a razor edge) Quite l33t.

Perhaps they will also, in turn, team up with Denon, who solved your NIC-to-switch latency concern ages ago anyway:

EVGA Network card

That is a marketing product intended for people who make impulse purchases or who can't be bothered to research real product.

For similar or less money you can buy real server class NICs (Intel PRO/1000 PT anybody? $119CDN, ncix.com) with on-board processing to offload the CPU and that have similar latency *and* can saturate a Gig-E line. Imagine that - line speed from a $100+ gigabit card! What will they accomplish next?

I really had to laugh at the 9 Mb/s and '... it is optimized for latency...'! Latency between where - the NIC itself and the switch it is plugged into!? Next EVGA will claim to be minimizing upstream latency on the Internet between the silly gamer who bought the card, and the game server! What tripe!

Same SoC?

Palm Pre is TI SoC-based, the SoC in iPhone 3GS is Samsung, so not the same SoC. But they both have ARM Cortex-A8 and IMG SGX.

I know you have no editors, but

it is Prē and not Pre.

Anandtech

They compared Palm Pre with Iphone 3G and not 3G S. And the reason why Anand thinks it comes close to the Iphone is software and not hardware. It would be nice if you'd bother to read the articles first.

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?
