WORD HAS REACHED us that ATI is showing off native Displayport on an upcoming GPU at the VESA Displayport plugfest going on now.

It is said that the firm is doing this on an unannounced GPU. If they already have silicon, that would put it at the 2400/2600/2900 refresh due out late this year or early next.

As far as we are aware, this is the first semi-publicly displayed GPU with native Displayport capabilities. For those of you who don't know, Displayport is the next-gen digital interface that will replace DVI.

It looks like the transition will begin in earnest in 2008, DRM infestation and all. µ

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?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
