Why Dell takes an alternative to processor provider?
Well, just arrived some new, carefully hidden evidences on exclusive pretty hot relations with Intel (inside only) .

Ops, Google doubles its profits
Google (Mountain View, Calif.) said Thursday (July 20) it earned $721.1 million during the second quarter, a $378.3 million jump over the same period last year. Net income in the first quarter of 2006 totaled $592 million.
Second quarter revenues totaled $2.46 billion, a 77-percent increase over the same period in 2005.
Compare with Intel's earnings in the same time frame.

Intel Declares War
Investors weren't shocked by Intel's second-quarter net income of $900 million, off 57% from the same quarter last year.
But, as always, rotten fish starts to stink from its head. Clean it first.
The moves, part of a plan to achieve "faster and better decision making," will bring the number of executives that report to Chief Executive Paul Otellini down by two. As part of the reorganization, two Intel executives have announced plans to retire, including Bill Siu, the general manager of the channel platforms group.

Bush Blocked Internal Justice Probe of Wiretaps
The reason? I don't need stinking OPR. What more, in the end, I don't need any ethics at all!
Question for the President: But, terrorists themself don't need ethics too, when they are killing innocent. What is the difference?
By the way, never have been so many terrorists and terrorism BEFORE Mr. Bush arrival in the Oval Office, after hmm quite unethical decision of the Supreme Court on his election victory with overall less number of voters than Presidential candidate from Democratic Party. Some idiot that don't regularly watch TV might say that Bush himself intentionally produced all this mess around. I mean, some 6 years after the 9/11 event, President is still unable to capture or kill Osama !?. But he eliminated all those others who bother Great Israel in any way! Perhaps he wouldn't like to (sp)oil still? warm and friendly relations with Osama's oil family? Or with ZION RING FAMILY? What if Osama is only their's latest negative role character from the Hollywood production sequel?
In my humble opinion, ethics is the basis of all: Our Laws, our society and administration, our religion, and our future. Without it, what will left in the end of all?
Well, seems that some court people who make those stinking orders don't agree with theirs President.
In a setback for the Bush administration's secretive Terrorist Surveillance Program, a federal judge in San Francisco on Thursday denied a government motion to quash a warrantless-wiretapping lawsuit against AT&T.
U.S. Northern District Judge Vaughn R. Walker rejected the government's claim that allowing the suit to proceed would compromise state secrets.
In a 72-page order, which attorneys for the plaintiffs called a victory, Walker wrote that dismissing the case at this early stage ``would sacrifice liberty for no apparent enhancement of security.''

After cut of 1000 managers, Intel cuts 2006 profit estimates for $3B
Intel is hoping to boost profits by slashing costs and inventory. Growth in PC sales is slowing and Intel predicts annual profits will be $9.3 billion, which is significantly lower than the $12.1 billion earned in 2005.
Oooooooops, some $3B less than in 2005 ! ! !. But price war with AMD yet really didn't start !.
That is it. If no more manager cuts at Intel, seems that each manager has made for its company average LOSS of some $3M per year. No more profits, no need for the managers. But ,being nothing has been cut in Israel, percentage of Jewish managers at Intel jumped significantly. Seems Intel goes to Israel, AMD goes worldwide. (Can we say so?)
It is even worse.
"I think they are going to do worse than this. There is a pricing dynamic in the industry. AMD and Intel are in a price war. Intel is probably going to underperform these numbers," Ross said. Intel shares fell 3 percent to $17.97 in extended trading on the Inet electronic brokerage.
Proving again,again and again badhardware's predictions right.
Right?
Sell Intel's shares quietly, recommended.

AMD unbelievably slashes AM2 prices
Merom designers work from underground
As badhardware reported first. And now Reuters.
Staff at Intel Corp's Haifa research centre have been forced into bomb shelters as Hizbollah rockets rained on the northern Israeli city, but they are still working, thanks to the fact it's also wireless underground.
The U.S. chip giant's R&D centre in Haifa has equipped its bomb shelters with a wireless network, said Kobi Bachar, a spokesman for Intel Israel.
8 dead in Haifa. So, if you find some design flaws in Merom soon, find too some mild understanding. You see how hard (underground) work conditions those people have.What, Intel might know that their main design center is in war zone, why shouldn't find safier place? I mean, I am only stupid ordinary hardware user, not interested in anyway in politics and noble Zion goals. You ungreatful terrorist supporter !. There is no so clever people on Earth like in Israel. Beside, those people after hard work couldn't relax better in any other place in the world. Say with shooting Palestinian children like a rabbits ( or like VP Dick Chaney shoots ducks and his friends in orange jackets), during the weekend. You know that is not like in computer games. Nothing compares with a feeling of real killing. But, what with forgotten Old Testament message: Don't kill, not to be killed?

Ooooooooops, Intel gives up from optimized 64bit X86 ! ! !
When you look at such background, Intel with Core MA, the reason which excessively stops emphasizing 64bit it is well understood. Intel, temporarily, with the opposition to AMD64, pushed out EM64T with NetBurst to the front. But, it has stopped emphasizing 64bit recently excessively from Intel side. With current mounting which is optimized in the efficiency of 32bit, perhaps that 64bit is emphasized it judges that it is not profitable step.
Though, because either Microsoft, with "Windows Vista" does not push out 64bit to the front excessively unlike the expectation of beginning, you can call balance that you have taken. Because Microsoft information of the micro architecture of Intel with the expectation which is being inserted in the hand at rather quick stage, knew the weak point of Core MA, very there is also a possibility tone of knocking down 64bitIntel is optimized for 32bit not for 64, that is the reason. But who found it first? Badhardware, at Merom first. Generally, for Intel's "new architecture" .
More details on Intel's radical new SUBOPTIMAL 64bit architecture find at badhardware. Smiley surprise for AMD and new Itanium. P4 has some boost with 64 bit, but Core Duo no any. Sell Intel's shares quietly, recommended.

Intel Merom's Santa Rosa 2007 chipset can't address more than 4GB DRAM
Although, eh, oh, Crestline will consume 13,5 W. Close to unbeatable low power consumption Merom, or even more ! Generally, what a global warming reduction achievement !. Normal hardware people will never take Merom in consideration after pure 64bit Turion long time at disposal, but David Copperfield dudes may buy it. Then, it would be nice for them to know what they actually bought INSIDE TM.
Thus badhardware optimism on Merom systems in 2007 remains unsubstantiated.

Mercury clock loses only a second after 400M years
Let me remind you, some 400M years ago. Earth's surface was completely deserted land. No single plant or animal on it, though some had been in the oceans.
If we could start our Mercury clock even then, it would be only one second late today. ! Now, latest atomic clock might be as small as the box of matches. How stable our computer clocks might be with such mother of the clocks!.
So who or what was created the first? God probably created first time to run, and the space where it have to run. With a precision of single second to locate the things and creatures, that have been created only later.

Being unable to make a radical architecture improvement , Intel changed the way we see it !
Illusionism again !
The same thing is with processors, we don't always get we think we get.
SO, DOES INTEL'S POWER CONSUMPTION MISTERIOUSLY DIMINISH? WITH A LITTLE HELP OF THE FAMOUS SPECIAL HARDWARE DESIGNER DAVID COPPERFIELD? LETS CHECK.
So there are two TDPs... or, at least, there used to be, six years ago. Anyway, AMD's claim is that its 125 watt number represents the FX-62's TDPmax, and Intel's 75 watt number represents Core 2 Extreme's TDPtyp. If Intel represented the maximal TDP instead, the numbers might look much different.
How does Intel and AMD define TDP? ONLY AFTER THAT CONCLUDE YOURSELF, IS THE FUTURE OF INTEL'S NEW ARCHITECTURE GREEN AND/OR PINKY.
P.S. David Copperfield ( name taken after the Charles Dickens novel ) was quite possible special advisor for the famous Tejas design team. Oh, how that illusion has been convincing. I don't know anyone who could resist. Anyway, my favorite one ( however, let's see first how "the new architecture" illusion will advance, but many are already immersed in) . Intel itself gives us a hint after once noniventively called its new weapon Coppermine. Of course, David Copperfield was in 1999 Intel's secret weapon only for some future designs. P III itself was a quite decent processor I still use, but Intel was even then aware that hit the wall in the dead end Pentium street. So, David was its cheapest answer against the booming AMD.
HOW TO GET RID OFF all ILLUSIONS? THINK ABOUT THIS: SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH A NEW ARCHITECTURE ANNOUNCEMENT, INTEL FIRED 1000 MANAGERS , WHO HAVE HANDLED THE CREATION OF THAT NEW, "UNBEATABLE" ARCHITECTURE ! !. WHAT AN EXAMPLE OF "GRATITUDE". OR, THAT NEW ARCHITECTURE IS ONLY AN FRAUD, SO WHY SO MANY MANAGERS IN THE FUTURE TO CREATE ONLY MORE FRAUDS?
WHAT IS MORE NATURAL THAN THAT THOSE PEOPLE START WHISTLE BLOWING ?
OBVIOUSLY, NOT WITHOUT THE REASONS.

AMD X2 at 2Ghz faster than Kentsfield at 2,4Ghz
AMD X2 at 2Ghz is faster than Kentsfield at 2,4Ghz with two cores.
So much about some unbeatable benchmarks on unbeatable Kentsfield processor.
Just as badhardware found somewhat earlier.OK. Now some latest benchmark findings on Conroe.
As you can see from the results, Intel takes a decisive lead in all categories but one: memory bandwidth. In Sandra 2007, Intel lags by astounding 100% when compared to the AMD products.
Just as badhardware found long time ago. Conroe is cache optimized. So when cache miss happens, unbeatable Conroe stalls. The role of Intel's carefully chosen benchmarks is to do just that: best in cache only.
NO CACHE REFERENCES READY AND YOU CAN'T PUSH CONROE CLOCK OVER 1,6GHZ. THIS FRAUD IS WORTH P4 FRAUD GLORY.
SORT OF TURBO OFF REGIME, WITH TURBO BUTTON YOU COULD SEE ONLY AT OLD X86 286 AT PROCESSORS. THOUGH IN CACHE STARVING AUTOMATIC MODE NOW.
ANYONE INTERESTED IN COMMON SUE, AFTER MISLEADING BENCHES ?

Intel, PC Makers Sued Over Processor Performance
A small group of PC owners has quietly filed a class action lawsuit against Intel, Gateway, and Hewlett-Packard alleging the companies misled them into believing the Pentium 4 was a superior processor to Intel's own Pentium III and AMD's Athlon.
However, situation with performance widely change. Core Duo has excelent benchmarks.
Even if *real* benchmarking comes back to our daily papers, remember the old saying: "There are lies, lies, and benchmarks."
Lets check the claim. Anand proudly founds:
"Intel's Core 2 Extreme X6800 didn't lose a single benchmark in our comparison; not a single one."
Congrats. Conroe is simply unbeatable. But the question is against whom?
P$4 perhaps?

Bush OKs secret court to review agency spy effort
After some plausible objections from badhardware, President Bush changed his course.
I mean of course, on bad use of top hardware from good guys intended against the bad guys.
The only thing strange to me in all these secret operations is the secret court. That is obvious contradictio in adjecto. Court have to be public and open, or otherwise, it is not a court. I mean democratic one. And the USA once were democratic country, isn't it?

Intel cuts 1000 managers worldwide.
Intel cuts 1000 managers worldwide. Perhaps only those not sworn on Zion brotherhood?
"Our analysis has shown that we have too many management layers," Mulloy said.
Hmm, I though at Intel were too many management LYARS.
After that, yet another 15K notices of termination will be probably delivered. But, this rest up to the optimal 16K work force reduction goal will not be asked for anything. I swear. HP did the same. Folsom campus will open the termination season. The others will follow.
"AMD is not going away so Intel will have to adjust its size and costs to reflect a smaller market share than they have had in the past," he explained. "The days of Intel being the only credible supplier in the market are history."

Castrato more popular than Maddona Johnny Depp and David Beckham combined
"Farinelli was more famous than Madonna, Johnny Depp and David Beckham combined," says Nicholas Clapton, curator of a London exhibition on castrati at the Handel House Museum.
His body, originally buried in 1782, is to be exhumed on 12 July and studied by researchers in Italy to see how childhood castration, performed on prospective singers to stop their voices breaking, affected bone structure.
Well, the secret of his alien voice is obvious, but applied solution is hmmm, pretty painful, at least for me. Anyway, we can't say that all his hardware is properly shaped, though (s)he was the mega star. Right?

The main cause of death statistics
1. Cancer
2. Heart attack
3. Stroke
4. Pneumonia
5. Murder
6. Suicide
Follow: Car accident, Drug overdoze, Assassination, AIDS, etc.
Lets suppose the first 4 most frequent are from God, than the next 6 are from Devil. Actually, you can easily avoid those 6 causes. Possible even those 4. Then, you will probably live over 100.
However, among the all, my favorite is this one cause of death: vulcanic eruption.

AMD's response to Kentsfield: FX-64 5200 at 65W only
4x4 strategy based on low power consumption FX-64 will put AMD's top performance ahead of Kentsfield's in Q4 this year !. Thus, 2 AMD's FX-64 at 65W each could fit into advanced BTX board 135W TDP !.
Two 65W FX-64 at US$541 each is some $1082. Quite price competitive to later Kentsfield.
And performance competitive to ill fated Nehalem. Two times 5200+ is 10400+. Equivalent to Nehalem clock in Mhz, right? 4 issues per clock and that is some 40 000 MFLOPS at 2.6Ghz , better than Kentsfield Whetstone of 37232 at 2,9Ghz.

Intel prepares 32 cored Keifer for 2010
Five years ago, Intel envisioned processors running at 20 GHz by the end of this decade. Today we know that the future will look different. CPUs will sacrifice clock speed over core count: The "Gulftown" processor, Intel's first "many core" CPU, will run at only two thirds of the clock speed of today's fastest Xeon CPU - but achieve 15x the performance, thanks to 32 cores.
So what is new here? Badhardware already knew before that why 10Ghz Tejas had no any chance.
Please note Keifer max clock: 2,6Ghz !
Was I right? Performance up, clock down. But, hmm not for the all applications. Only for those able to extract inherent parallelism INSIDE.
Anyway, I hope that AMD will not promptly respond with 32 core Yoghurt processor. Like responded with early AM2 3600+ X2 against Conroe launch.

Motorola launches non wear-out MRAM
Nice chance even for bigger systems. 8 of 4 Mbit MRAM chips give 4 MB of 35ns nonvolatile storage. Now, when your system hang out simply reboot the the OS microkernel from ist last state. Without the need for POST and reboot.
Sort of micro reboots. Finally something useful for our buggy OSs. By the way, 4MB is the L2 size of Intel's latest Woodcrest and Conroe processors.

Since, its discovery in 1897. And on idea that we must have a bulk of substance for each of them.
But, no any more. What if we can make a single atom sheet of graphene?
We could get computer based on wave computing. And wave oriented computer architectures. With a quantum entaglement property as a benefit.
Seems, though quite counter intuitive, we even didn't start with real computing opportinities.

Bush started with US citizens wiretapping 7 months before 9/11 ! !
But, I thought after Bush's brainwashing rhetorics, that democrats were indirectly guilty for 9/11 attacks? Seems that theirs security misses were wiretapped and available for blackmailing if they would dare in any way to doubt in Bush's official 9/11 event version or argue against the carefully planned Iraqi adventure, as a part of broad, only rising anti muslims media campaign, something similar in reach only to anti Jewish Nazi propaganda.
OK, enough with conspiracy theories, lets just look in court's tapping order and abandon forever those stinking accusations.
Hmm, that is exactly the core of problem. This president doesn't like any stinking court order (they painfully resembles him on honest man Nixon) !! Or perhaps on then close elections 2000 , he won with minority of overall voters number, by Supreme Court decision? So far, no written record on cause and need for pre 9/11 wiretapping !. Now, speculations will blossom.
The only thing left unanswered so far in this story is how Bush actually might know in advance for 9/11 event and Iraqi endless war, except if he was himslef quite close with confident, 9/11 and later Iraq campaign planning circles ???. On the contrary, he would be impeached for Nixon style mass wiretapping. Isn't it? What else his EARLY wiretapping could be abused for?
