So says the buzz.
I’m not sure I like the beastly little prototype shown in the article. Hopefully, this is just a generic prototype.

The Filter: Music Discovery Service
Another musician I love embraces technology. Peter Gabriel will be supporting the US launch of “The Filter”, a service that makes content recommendations based upon a user’s digital library content. What’s most interesting about this is that this service is not limiting itself to music recommendations. Rather it will recommend music, video, and books. It sounds neat. I wonder, though, will it be possible to use The Filter anonymously? As in my identity is my existing digital library and that’s all that is known about me. I suppose I will just have to try it out.

Consumer Version of MS Surface in 2011
I wonder if they are under pressure from competition like Apple, Hitachi, Panasonic and the like. Lots of companies are currently working on touch and gesture based interfaces. I wonder will MS integrate this with Windows. If so, what are the computer makers doing to take advantage of Surface?
Intel's SkullTrail
HOT!!!!!! Hellz yeah! I guess this will get somewhere affordable for the likes me in a year or so.
I guess you could build yourself a nice little supercomputer with this chipset, too. Modelling!!! WhooHoo!!!
AMD seeks Gains in Graphics
This is pretty cool. It sounds like once AMD gets their hybrid graphics hardware to act stably, entry level gaming systems will be available at the sub $1000 range ($599 speculated in this blog). It is a good move on AMD’s part to try to make the CPU seems less important to system performance since they are unable to over take Intel. However, recall that Intel has also recognized the importance of the GPU moving forward so AMD will not find this to be an easy to fight either. This all, though, is good for the customer who will have all sorts of computer choices available to them because the competition between Intel, Nvidia, and AMD/ATI. I look forward to seeing how things are in 2009 as this war heats up.
