"Vista Capable" lawsuit loses class action status, relevance {Engadget}
Feb 19th 2009 9:49AM I thought the case was a load of B.S. They were essentially just complaining that they didn't get "Aero Glass", not a functional part of the OS. The PC's they bought did indeed run Vista, hence the use of the word Vista Capable. I remember back when Vista came out and read over the different labeling we would see, "Vista Basic", "Vista Premium" and "Vista Capable". Any PC that was "Basic" would not necessarily run "Glass" and any pc that was “Capable” only had to meet the reqs of being "Basic". Their lawsuit, like I said is B.S., how can you blame or sue Microsoft for your own stupidity and the stupidity of Microsoft employees doesn't give any more credence to the lawsuit.

I agree, given the TDP and power usage of the current Core i7's, it doesn't seem like it would even be possible to release a decently clocked 8 core version without a die shrink. Although I had been secretly hoping for a surprise 2 die Kentsfield like version of the Core i7 with 8 cores. From a few slides I saw awhile back not even Westmere will bring 8 cores to the desktop or 2 socket server market, they're currently speced to be 6 cores. Check out the wiki article on the Nehalem arch, they've got good info for Westmere, Sandy Bridge and Haswell.

Jul 1st 2008 9:23AM It was a bad comparison, he should've said it's no match to an OC'd Q6600 or Q9450.

Leaked slide shows AMD's BGA CPU could take on Intel's Atom processor {Engadget}
Jun 17th 2008 10:09AM I'll believe it when I see it, AMD's been really good at making slides and product schedules but has failed completely at execution.
