First and foremost a very good morning to all of you out there in Intarhnet land. Hope everyone had a good weekend. I managed to survive another birthday. I am up to 34 and I am still alive!! Woot! Speaking of old things coming anew. Atari is releasing it first console in decades, well the new Atari anyways. Commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Atari 7800, the Atari Flashback Classic Game Console will hit store shelves the week of November 22nd. A new retro-style, stand-alone console unit configured with 20 classic Atari games, Atari Flashback includes Asteroids, Centipede, Breakout and Atari's previously unreleased thriller, Saboteur. It is good to see something old and cool make a return.
From something cool to something kind of scary. PC World is reporting that Pentium 4 have reached a speed limit. They are saying that 3.8 Ghz is going to be the highest speed in the traditional sense. I thought we wouldn't be bumping into Moore's Law for about 5 to 10 years. I wonder what this means for the short term growth of the computer industry?
Let's get on with the rest of the news. |

Don't you mean "breaking Moore's Law"? http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/M/Moores_Law.html |
