How about the St. Jude's Hospital?
The major question is, will it be able to run Vista?
How many proposals a day do you think she gets?
I would nix Star Wars and replace it with Zelda or Final Fantasy.
I just wish they would remove their heads from their nethers and get onboard with 16:9 A/R instead of 16:10. All 16:10 does is distort or add bars to standard HD/widescreen content.

(nb: I knwo that many films come out in formats wider than 16:9, but then again, 16:10 would only make that worse as well...)
To the disgruntled reader, you are welcome to go back to /. where I can give you a -1 (troll) and be done with it.

Q:"Doesn't the whole HDMI standard include audio.....I think so." Yes - but although you could route the audio over the PCI-X bridge, it would skip over the audio processor and would be unfinished (ATI would have to add audio procession to their GPU). This way, you can let the audio processor do its magic, then pump it back into the g-card so it goes to your tele over HDMI.

I personally hate HDCP and think its a core violation of my user rights, and would gladly buy from anyone not supporting it. But the fact is, our Congressmen do not understand why we should be allowed to view what we buy how we want. So, if you want HD content or Vista Aero (please remember Aero is the GUI, Vista is the OS) you need HDCP.
Well, its meant as an armored convoy - hence 'used for tasks like resupplying forces in dangerous environments'. I wish they had mentioned if it carried any sort of weaponry, but I doubt Uncle Sam is willing to put bullets in the hands of a computer. Yet.
I'm going to have to call BS on this one too. Everyone knows that the Porno industry is lightyears ahead of law enforcement. If this 3D holographic technology was available, it would already have gone (ed. been stuck?) where no man has ever gone before.
If they can make it charge through a connection in the metal thingy (sorry for using scientific words) in the door jam, this product might go over huge.
I would just hose it down with some WD-40. The WD stands for water displacement, you know...

(And please please please let it dry before you turn it back on. WD-40 is flammable.)
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I need help! I want a small pocket camcorder but I'm not sure which one to get. I don't want to fall into the hype of the Flip because I worry two hours won't be enough. What should I be looking for when considering a small camcorder and where can I get a good quality one with expandable memory? Thanks!"
