    All iPhone Models in 2018 Likely to Abandon Fingerprint Recognition

    Years?!? Is he serious. If it was truly a competitive threat, Android phones would have it in 6 months.

    “Daily Stormer” Termination Haunts Cloudflare in Online Piracy Case

    There's a difference between closing one account outright and finding/filtering for, say, pirated material across all accounts.

    Crystal Dynamics Defends $60 Tomb Raider Port

    I bet if it was asked of us plebs if $30 was too much, we'd still say it should be cheaper. About 99% of us have no idea exactly how much work went into this. Still, it's a fun post-holiday useless discussion! :)

    Anyone using OpenStack?

    Consider looking into Proxmox VE. Super easy to install and comes with a good web-based admin. I've used it and it's simple and nifty.

    Win8 13" Touchscreen w/NVidia or AMD?

    Ooo, so close. Asus, c'mon and slap a flip hinge on that mother! :)

    Win8 13" Touchscreen w/NVidia or AMD?

    Actually, touch is part of my criteria because I want to have it for Win8. Otherwise, there's lots of neat laptops like that one. (BTW, doesn't the S13 have a low vert res?)

    Win8 13" Touchscreen w/NVidia or AMD?

    Thanks, but I am well aware of that trade-off in system design. However, things seem to somehow constantly get better and smaller. I don't need to bring up Gates' 640K quote again, do I? :) The point of my OP was to ask if there is a slim, ultrabook-like laptop with a better GPU than the usual...

    Win8 13" Touchscreen w/NVidia or AMD?

    Bummer. Any in the near future?

    Win8 13" Touchscreen w/NVidia or AMD?

    Is there a nice thin "tabletizable" laptop with a 13-14" touchscreen, good resolution (meaning at least 1080 vert), i5/i7 and an NVidia or AMD GPU? The Lenovo Yoga comes close, but has Intel video.

    Midsized Laptop w/Good Docking?

    In the market for a laptop. At work, I have a small desktop with an ATi Firepro 2450 so as to get three screens. (I'm a software developer. Three screens is perfect for my work style.) I do road-trip to clients and such, and would like to have an all-in-one solution. I'd like to replace my...

    4870X2 Benchmarks Low

    3DMark Vantage reports "Linked Display Adapters" as "false" under its System Info section. (So, looks like signs on the "Techie 8-ball" are pointing to no crossfire going on. Of course, the clocks being reported by RivaTuner, Vantage and GPU-Z are all screwy, so trusting the Crossfire...

    4870X2 Benchmarks Low

    P7367 vs. the usual ~P12000-13000 I see with other similar systems. CPU looks fine at P8670. I would, but I just built and benchmarked the system. I want to make sure all is well before I start overclocking. Seems like something is wrong...
