The rumour is confirmed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A...
Looks awsome! The new Apple Bandai Pippin console features a 66 MHz processor and a 14.4 kb/s modem...

the explaination is quite easy: this poll was from 2001, but was caught in a time wormhole and catapulted 13 years into the future

So, this could be the last AAA OpenGL game for Windows, given that id Software is in it's death spiral (http://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-id-Software-RVW4012058.htm)

Actually, you are right. Having more than 8GB in fact makes your dick bigger

I think profits will be from consoles, GPUs and low end APUs for the time being

I believe the guy who kicked this whole thing off was elected by a rigged vote.

So, you mean it's easier for a newbie to make a demo. But when doing anything serious, like writing a game engine, that wrapper stuff only accounts for about 0.000000001% of the development effort.

I call bullshit. DirectX is only marginally easier at best. If you're implementing a game engine your going to need people at top of field, regardless whether it's OpenGL or DirectX

Aren't they worried that they might become sentient and turn on their masters?
Kill all humans!

In fairness, they did not spend much effort on the cooling solution. The iMac is a PC crammed into a tiny box and it's virtually silent. The difference is that Apple invested a huge amount of development into the heatsink design.

it is skimming, but if you are paying a penny for every share you buy or sell, you are effectively paying the HFT guys the same amount that you pay your broker

They are guaranteed jobs in HFT firms after they retire from SEC:

It's quite impressive that even though it's still 28nm, the GPU has 38% reduction in leakage current. That comes from improvements in the 28nm process. You would only get those sort of improvements by moving to a new node.
