Submission + - Microsoft unveils new search: Bing (msdn.com)

JacobSteelsmith writes: "Microsoft is attempting to re-brand it's Live Search, also known as Kumo. Bing, as it's known, is another attempt by Microsoft to lure consumers away from Internet search leaders such as Google. Microsoft has posted a quarterly loss in it's online advertising business, compared to Google's sales, $4.7 billion in the first quarter.

According to the Live Search blog, Bing goes "beyond the traditional search engines to help you make faster, more informed decisions" by combining a "great search engine" with organized results. It also adds unique tools to help the user make important decisions. It is being touted as a "decision engine." A video can be viewed at http://www.decisionengine.com/Default.html."

Comment Signetics 2650 assembly langue (Score 1) 1260

Back in the late 70s I had an obscure games console based on the Philips Signetics 2650 CPU. After playing the Space Invaders clone got boring I bought a cartridge that allowed you to program your own games and save it on tape.

I don't think I ever managed to get the damn thing to even flip a single pixel.

After that I upgraded to the vastly more powerful TRS-80 Model 1. That's when programming actually started to be fun.
