CeBIT 2008: Gigabyte - The Fan Becomes a Useless Argument.

Gigabyte has a good example of the unbearable marketing trend that wants to take the smallest thing and turn it into a marketing argument. Even though the manufacturer built most of its reputation on graphic cards using passive and silent cooling systems, it now boasts a "3D active fan" as a major feature on of its graphic cards. What are the arguments? The fan is energy saver and a shield! In fact, itò€™s the opposite. Adding a fan will increase power consumption (in a relatively small manner, usually between 1 W to 3 W) and adds to the list of possible failures. To top it up, the fan is installed on a GeForce 8500 GT, an entry level card running modest performances and perfectly capable of using a humble heat sink (itò€™s the case with other manufacturers)!

If it\'s Friday, AMD and Intel dual-core prices must be falling.

Sunnyvale (CA) - They did this last Friday, too: Prices for AMD dual-core processors are taking another pre-weekend dip, according to the latest data from PriceGrabber, with the Athlon 64 X2 5000+ falling the furthest since Monday: down $47 (13.1%) to $313.

Graphics Wars: The Big Summer Battle.

Analyst Opinion - Part of what makes this year somewhat different in graphics is that Intel has indicated that is now serious about graphics. Intel has been talking a lot about its upcoming graphics technology called Larrabee that it promises will surpass the best that both AMD/ATI and Nvidia will have on the market in two years. Having been down this path before, describing my feelings as a little skeptical would be an understatement. But Intel is a very capable company and it is executing very well at the moment. However, the first reviews of Intelò€™s new integrated part are available and, unfortunately, reality isnò€™t in line with expectations.

New York (NY) - In September 1963, about a year and a half after he launched the CBS Evening News, Walter Cronkite instituted one of the most innovative developments in journalism: On the surface, it appeared that CBS merely expanded the broadcast from 15 minutes to a half-hour.

It was an innovation that NBC would emulate only weeks later, and that would establish television as the principal provider of news for most Americans.
