WE HAD the oportunity to see Crossfire system running on the newest version of upcoming Vista operating system. The machine was showcased to us by Lars Weinand, ex-Tom's, current ATI and probably future AMD employee.

The chap showed us the Crossfire system on the latest internal developer build Vista. It managed to run 3Dmark05 flawlessly. We didn't see any issues with it and the Weinand confirmed that a bunch of current games actually work in Vista as well - more than ten titles.

The first shot shows the Crossfire working in Super tiling mode on Vista while the second one shows the AFR, Alternate Frame rendering mode. The performance of the driver is good, and it doesn't feel much slower than what we're used to seeing with Windows XP.

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.
