I think that's a great idea. I don't think that would help Microsoft out. Microsoft's issues are much deeper than just hardware.

Pretty sure it exists and it's called CarPlay (or Android Auto if you live on the other side of the fence). Just no auto maker wants to give it their UI entirely.

Explains how they churn out so much crap. I logged into the 365 Online portal for the first time in a long time the other day and the amount of random crapware that exists there is astonishing. And then, just now, I think -- oh a screen shot of that would be perfect for this post! I go there...

Par for the course. Wasn't really any different when it was just called Win10 though. Or Win8. Don't recall Win7 being this bad, but it's been a while since they actively did anything for that and I may have had a few beers since then.

**** you guys make me look amateur

I dunno about the speakers in the article - other than they look interesting. But I have a set of Edifier desktop monitor speakers - and they sound pretty pretty good for the size and the cost.

Seems like if we learned anything from Prescott to Core it was — focus on efficiency, then scale that up for speed/power.

That would be the first time nVidia waited and didn’t push a proprietary standard…

The answer there isn’t to boycott the Aquacool device. If anything we should all be supporting them for finding a need and providing that with a well designed product To achieve what you are after - you need to boycott the root of the problem: nVidia. And no one is talking about doing that...

Well the good news here is that EA hasn’t put out anything I’ve been excited about for years now… so no change is expected

You aren’t wrong. But every time I get around to thinking “Hmm maybe it’s time I got the kid a new card and Intel is right in the strike zone” something pops up that makes me think Arc is probably walking the line. I guess the fact that it still exists with Intel in the state it’s in does speak...

Oh lord god baby Jesus no

That will be a UE6 feature

Should, but it's not. I lost around 8 weeks when our company did this a couple of years ago. I didn't complain too loudly though - they compensate me well enough via other means.

I do not disagree with you, I think we are talking about the same thing - but I think that statement right there is exactly what I'm trying to describe. Why upgrade unless it serves a purpose?
