AMD better catch up, although they have until 2011 to do so.

In my little world all Intel is good for is prodding the AMD engineers to spank them again, so go Intel...

Hey Gatekeeper53 look at this news post: The 80-core research chip achieves teraflop speeds by consuming only 62 watts of electricity, which is less than many single-core processors.

Who needs electricity anyway?

[gatekeeper53]

I don't need elec. I like watching TV in the dark lol I did go out and buy me a new toy though. I got an on demand hot water heater.

is it one of those gas type coil heaters? I was thinking about getting one of those.

[gatekeeper53]

It's elec but yes it is the coil type. I saw them about 35 years ago in Japan and my brothe put one in about 15 years ago. His works great but the water is so hard where he is that he had to install a water softener so as not to clog it. He says it saves him about 10% on his elec bill.

Do you mean a wather acumulator as hold the wather warmt 24 hours? My brother in law has one boiler (use birchwood) and light the furnace 1 time per day and the acumulator tank holds the wather from 80 - 60 degree during a day and night and the tank is 2 m high and 1 m wide.

It is cheaper than use elec.
