AMD and Intel CPUs, comrades on same motherboard
This may not win the "most practical innovation" award, but it's worth a nod nonetheless: ECS have developed the ECS PF88 motherboard, which holds both an Intel P4 LGA775 and an AMD 939 socket. The Intel chip will live on the board itself, while the AMD Athlon 64 processor hangs out on an attached daughterboard. We're glad to see these two rivals working closely in harmonious computational bliss (we can all just get along), and there's no denying it looks pretty slick, and yet… will anyone use it?
