I think he underestimates the ability of geeks. We're geeks for a reason, not cause we can fly a plane, run with 75lbs on our backs or even do a obstacle course in under 10 minutes but because we learn technical things fast and we enjoy it. That's not to say that warriors can't.. but there is a reason they are warriors and we are geeks.

Well.. I logged into live on the first day this service was offered (stupid I know) and have been trying to dl a HD movie for a couple of days now. When I went to bed last night it was at 59%. If this is the best they can do "It's not soo good!". IMO.. :)

Posted by Zonk on Friday February 17, 2006 @11:49AM from the that's-a-lot-of-sequels dept.

GamesDailyBiz is reporting that the games industry will double in market size by 2011. This is according to a study, not some sort of time-scrying device. From the article: "The videogame industry has been growing exponentially in recent years, and a new study from ABI Research has indicated that the growth will continue. According to the study, the videogame market will expand from $32.6 billion in 2005 to $65.9 billion in 2011. Online and mobile gaming will be the primary source of the growth, while the rest of the market will see growth, but to a lesser extent."

ATI Claims HDCP Then Covers Its Tracks 328

Posted by Zonk on Friday February 17, 2006 @11:38AM from the not-so-fast-hotshot dept.

BigControversy writes "It looks like a big can of worms is being opened. The DailyTech.com is reporting that ATI sold millions of video cards knowing that HDCP support was not enabled. Despite that, the cards were sold and advertised to its customers as having HDCP capabilities. A day or two after this information was revealed, HDMI.org went completely password protected and ATI is now modifying key areas of its website, removing any mention of 'HDCP-ready'."
