  1. The sleeping giant of Intel has now arisen.

    After years, the chip giant is set to reclaim the desktop performance crown from crosstown rival Advanced Micro Devices with the launch of Conroe, its much-anticipated next-generation processor.
    In a head-to-head comparison, the CRN Test Center put Intel's soon-to-be-released Core 2 Extreme Processor and AMD's top-of-the-line Athlon FX62 Dual Core processor through the paces. Initial test results show that Intel's latest processor lives up to the hype and outpaces AMD's best by almost 28 percent.

    Intel's advances on AMD's territory doesn't end with just performance, but also includes lower power requirements and reduced costs, a combination that could prove fatal to AMD's growth in the desktop processor market. What's more, AMD is several months away from anything new in the desktop processor market, leaving the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company's current Athlon product line very vulnerable to the mammoth marketing machine of Intel, Santa Clara, Calif. [...][...]The rest of the components used in this comparison were selected to keep things as equal as possible. The same Antec 550-watt Neo HE power supply was used on both test boards as was the same pair of Corsiar CM2X512-8500 RAM modules and EVGA GeoForce 7800GT PCI-X video cards. Both systems were equipped with a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 750-Gbyte Serial ATA hard drive. Windows XP Service Pack 2 was installed on both test systems, and the latest drivers were downloaded from the company's respective Web sites. [...]

    [...]With all of the chips on the table, so to speak, Intel has pulled ahead in the desktop market by providing a faster, cheaper CPU than the competition. But that victory may be shortlived. AMD can quickly rebalance the scales by increasing clock speeds and lowering prices.

  3. CUPERTINO, California—June 26, 2006—Apple® today announced that CEO Steve Jobs will headline a team of Apple executives, including Philip Schiller, senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing; Bertrand Serlet, senior vice president of Software Engineering; and Scott Forstall, vice president of Platform Experience, to kick off the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) with a keynote preview of Mac OS® X “Leopard” on Monday, August 7, 2006, beginning at 10:00 a.m. at San Francisco’s Moscone West. Throughout WWDC, developers will receive detailed information and best practices on developing Universal applications that take advantage of the performance of Intel-based Macs, including special sessions on performance optimization using Apple software development tools.

     

    The five-day event, which runs from August 7 to August 11, will deliver more than 175 technical sessions and labs with new content designed to serve a wide range of Mac® developers, including tracks that preview Leopard and dozens of hands-on labs providing opportunities to work developer-to-developer with Apple engineers.

     

    Other activities at Apple’s WWDC 2006 include:

     

    * presentation sessions led by engineers and experts delivering the technical information needed to take advantage of current technologies in Tiger, and get ready for what’s coming in Leopard;

    * hands-on sessions that allow developers to bring their notebooks and get firsthand knowledge of Apple’s best practices for leveraging technologies like Spotlight™, Core Image, Xgrid™, Core Data, Quartz Composer and more;

    * hands-on, technology specific labs where developers can work one-on-one with Apple engineers to solve problems and answer questions;

    * extra focus on digital media, system administration, game development and scientific computing communities; and

    * special events and activities including the opening night’s Apple Developer Connection Reception, Apple Design Awards, Stump the Experts and Late Night Labs.

  6. A DRUG that triggers the birth of neurons in rat brains has opened up the possibility of a new treatment for Parkinson's disease. Animals given the drug generated dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra, the area of the brain where cells are lost in people with Parkinson's.
    Christopher Eckman and Jackalina Van Kampen at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Jacksonville, Florida, found that after infusing the drug 7-OH-DPAT into damaged rats' brains for eight weeks, the numbers of neurons in the damaged region and the connections they made had both returned to near normal (The Journal of Neuroscience, vol 26, p 7272). "The recovery in the animals was nothing short of profound," says Eckman

  8. m trying to find a better media player than WMP, mainly for audio/music. Im trying to find one that plays mp3's and mp4's, and if possible ogg and flac, but its not nessessary. ive tried VLC, but it kept freezing on me everytime i made a playlist, possibly because i have too many songs(1400+). winamp and itunes seem to be too bloated IMO, and WMP itself just lacks in playable formats/features. Any recommendations? thanks in advance.[edit]My os is WIN XP =)
