Altered Beast........yessssss Also, House of the Dead as a VR Shooter.

OEM's will lead the way on adopting this. After that it will come to DIY.

It takes years from ground breaking to wafer production. The lead time on the lithography equipment itself is more than a year.

By the time it is ready for production wafers we will be two or three gens ahead of current.

That is the thing, it is not indigenously. It is stolen. They are a decade behind with copying things they have stolen. They lack the ability to significantly innovate on their own. The turbofan example is not actually an edge case, it shows the issue 100%. They did not even steal that. They...

Certainly. Particularly the regulations around rare earth element mining. Our only significant deposits are in California, Nebraska, Texas, and Wyoming. The only large working mine in the US was Mountain Pass which was shuttered for years because of low prices and government interference. The...

No Chinese manufacturing is not up to other standards even with stringent QC. That is why they are cheaper. You don't get low prices and quality. Look at their turbofans, still behind Cold War era Russian standards.

Will I be able to buy them? Asking for a........ehhhh....**** it.....me.

Console revisions have always been a thing. There were three Genesis revisions, two NES (and more if you count Famicon), at least a half dozen 3DO versions, etc.

This is one of those areas that AMD has been brilliant. They are literally the only vendor in the space. So, you want a refresh.....sure........we will do it but you are paying!

Which 4? Frozen hell, rainy hell, oh look the sun, and miserable people outside? Yeah, no.......cost of living and taxes are terrible in the Northeast. I'll take good seasons and lower cost of living. I can run my boat 9 months out of the year here. No way in the Northeast.

And terrible the rest, plus cost of living.

Ground water is a bad idea. The Ogalla Aquifer collapse should teach us all that. Taiwan, weirdly enough, is better positioned because desalination really has no limits. Sure, it is energy expensive but the supply is "limitless' in a way inland water sources are not.

Given the amount of water used in wafer manufacturing, Arizona always strikes me as a weird place to congregate a bunch of Fabs.

I want a 4000 or 5000 series APU that I can get.

Well, yeah. That is the crux of the argument. You do not buy so they should not advertise it that way. You license it at their will to cancel your license. Which also brings pricing into question.

Probably because Apple was being Apple.

At least you will be able to afford a 3000 series GPU that way.

I still buy DVD's because I have an HD-DVD player :cautious:
