THE FOLK engaged in a search for intelligent life in the universe have put together a version of the Seti@Home client for the AMD64 platform.

According to AMD Zone, that poses a heap of questions about performance, given the Opteron has additional sets of GPR and SIMD registers for programs specifically compiled for the platform.

And now the site has benchmarked Seti@Home on the Opteron.

You can find the preamble and the actual benchmarks, starting on this this page. 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.
