ATI HAS released its Radeon Xpress 1250 card for laptops.

The new card will make its first appearance in an NEC LaVie L Advanced Type notebook for the Japanese market. Radeon Xpress 1250 is the first Intel-based chipset to support ATI's Avivo display and video architecture. This technology claims to produce "vibrant images" and "smooth video playback", not to mention the ever-important "true-to-life images".

We are yet to see a graphics card press release that promised crap images, jumpy playback and images that looked unreal, so you'll have to forgive the cynicism.

The Radeon Xpress 1250 can handle Windows new Aero Glass features with ease, Spokes Blokes from ATI enthused.

The card works with ATI's SB600 South Bridge support for up to 10 Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports, 4 SATA II ports with RAID capability.

You can read the press release and be awed here. 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.
