Asus Previews Latest P7P55D Evo Design.

Asus" P7P55D Evo is shaping up to be quite an attractive P55-based motherboard (with support for Intel"s Core i5 processors). Two new photos from Asus update the platform"s looks from last week"s early preview. If you haven"t yet seen our first-look preview at Asus" upcoming P55-based P7P55D Evo motherboard for Intel"s Core i5, you can check it out right here. In that preview, we mentioned that the board"s design wasn"t yet final, and that Asus would update us when the color/cooling was sorted out. That has happened, it seems, and we received a couple of shots of the new P55 heatsink and color scheme. Of note is that these shots still show eight SATA ports, while we"ve heard from Asus that the Marvell controller"s drivers are not ready and that Gigabyte is pulling the 6 Gb/s chips from its P55-based designs altogether.

CES 2006: Highlights of Friday's coverage from TG Daily.
Las Vegas (NV) - Friday, Google took the spotlight - some would say, they stole it. Trying to go one up on Steve Jobs (who pays his own company"s respect to CES by scheduling MacWorld in San Francisco so close to it), Google"s Larry Page basked in the spotlight of speculation that his company was planning to unveil something more than it actually did. The theme of this year"s show was becoming quite clear: Everyone, it seems - or, more accurately, everyone with a marquis name - wants to be a content provider. But what was interesting about Friday was that so much speculation had been devoted to Google"s rumored interest in being a consumer electronics device company in its own right - in effect, a content manager that when Page revealed the truth, for many, it was something of a letdown. The fact that it was a letdown should perhaps be a signal to those who would become content providers, and didn"t try to let that news be masked by loftier rumors.
