Hoorah SSH is back, which means I am aswell :)

In a fairly large story, Intel is set to cut 4000 jobs as its revenue drops. "The job cuts came as CEO Craig Barrett reported that Intel's revenues were down seven per cent on the previous quarter. Revenues were $6.3 billion for its second quarter."

I never thought I would live to hear that Processors are getting too fast! "... Pentium 4 may not see the light of day because Windows doesn't like it.
