    Published: Friday, March 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Ok now I'm pissed some guy in the UK gets to review an engineering sample of Crucial memory and I don't get anything, despite living no more than 45min away from the Micron Headquarters and less than 20min away from the US distributor of Crucial.com angry smile

  • Micron in the DDR400 market

    Published: Friday, March 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Micron has had DDR333 chips for quite some time now but only sold them as DDR266 parts. Its good to hear they are deciding to kick things into gear and jump on the DDR400 wagon despite the lack of a DDR400 spec.

  • Micron Conversion to 300mm Wafers

    The only reason I mentioned this tid bit of news was because I actually worked on the drawings for the Micron Lehi building mentioned in the news post. Its a really nice facility but also really expensive to build.

  • Fugly Blue Ninjalane.com Page

    This isn't related to the blue theme page but rather a DNS problem by my hosting provider. The situation should now be resolved but if not don't be scared just wait about 20min and try again.

  • iMac and Quanta

    Published: Friday, March 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Most of you probably don't know much about the Quanta Company so here is a little background. Quanta is a sister company related to Freeway that does manufacturing. When Freeway comes up with a motherboard design Quanta builds it (not that Freeway has made motherboards lately). The fun doesn't stop there either Quanta will also build things for other companies including but not limited to Apple iMac's, rack mounted servers, LCD screens, etc... I guess the new iMac was/is complicated to build which had an effect on revenues.

    Not one but two Gainward GeForce4 reviews have come out of t-break recently, the second one being the Ti4400 Ultra/700XP. Bascially this card is a downclocked Ti4600 and can be easily overclocked to Ti4600 speeds.

    I am actually more impressed with their site design than the case but that's not the reason for this post. big grin smile The Scorpio TA-10WD is actually quite a cool case though I can see it now, scorpion silhouette windows will be "all the rage" for this case.

    Here is another review of the very perdy Gainward Ti4600. I'm still hopeful to get one myself very soon.

  • Dual P4 Coming Soon??

    That is what the guys at 2cpu are saying. Not sure what to think about this bit of news but with the new Northwood processors anything is possible.

  • Serial ATA Info @ Heatseekerz

    Published: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Serial ATA is the up and coming drive standard that will replace the current ATA spec on desktop computers. At first Serial ATA speeds won't be that great but as the technology matures I think the time of hard drive bottlenecks will be less of a problem.
