PCPer has posted some information on future Nvidia driver developments including DX10 SLI support. "Another issue that arose during our testing was outlined in our Vista Gaming Performance article. Both ATI and NVIDIA’s first release Vista drivers were not up to par with the performance we have seen on Windows XP, and NVIDIA was much farther behind of the two. The NVIDIA Forceware 100.54 release that was available on the Vista launch day lacked support for SLI, had a sluggish hi-resolution OpenGL implementation and the HDTV support was basically crippled. "
Wongsta in reply to the other XP optimization guide has sent me this link of a better optimization guide which goes in more depth. I appreciate users doing this so if you see anything posted and think you can find something better on the same topic, send it in or post it in the comments for others who are interested. "This is more complete, although both are just as good. I thought this one was better until i saw there were 5 pages to the blog post...."
Tyrone has sent in this page showing an absolutely awesome computer setup of Dutch entrepreneur Stefan Didak. "People have asked me to list some specs on the systems in the home office. I will make an attempt at that but am not sure how up to date I can keep it since there are expansions, upgrades, changes, and quite a lot of enhancements taking place every few months."
Xbiz has taken a look at FBI and their data mining (possible NSFW banner ads) which they have admitted to. "When authorities have a court order and an Internet service provider is unable to isolate a suspect’s IP address because of technical reasons, the FBI said it uses a broad stroke wiretapping technique that allows agents to investigate and assemble the activities of thousands of Internet users at one time, according to a report on CNET News."
TrustedReviews has taken a look at Panasonic's ToughBook toughened notebook and some of it's features that makes it so tough. "The ToughBook line is split into two sections – Fully Rugged and Semi-Rugged, or as the guys out in Japan referred to them, Field Mobile and Business Mobile. The fully rugged notebooks are pretty hardcore devices that can work virtually anywhere, like the CF-29 and the CF-19 which I reviewed recently. These machines can take an excessive amount of abuse and keep coming back for more. The semi-rugged notebooks are very different – these can take a few knocks and bashes, but can’t withstand the serious abuse of their big brothers."
Today we have two timewasters, one of them is this sheep reaction game where you try to tranquilize the sheep that tries to escape. The other is Rails of War where you need to build a train with weapons and kill the enemies which are out to get you.
