When you think about it what MS is trying to do is STAGGERING ....creating a totally new file system, GUI - all 3D, & doing it to accomodate BOTH 64 & 32 bit platforms simultaneously with slower scaled down versions for the multitude of PC's out there - that was never a concern with any Win9x or Xp programs. A monumental nightmare when you take into consideration computer technology changes at JET SPEED - I'm glad I'm not on that

Reply to AGP is not dead! in ATI WinCustomize Forums

One of the main resaons WHY I stuck to the 32 bit/AGP platform was because prices have fallen so rapidly over the past 10 to 12 months for these older components - processors like the AMD 2800+(retail) were running over $500 dollars 4+ years ago....I just couldn't see paying for higher priced upgrades in the 64-bit/PCI Express arena when I have yet to see the benefits from it. Please understand - I LOVE the newer platform & know it's all

Just curious iTZKooPA, have you seen anything that benefits from the X16 pipeline architecture - or any PC games/apps that really use it??

I'm able to play just about anything that's out there with an AMD Athlon 3200+ & a 6600GT AGP vid card....& I'm not even o'clocking. I haven't seen anything yet that benefits from the PCX X16 piplines even though they've been around for some time now. However, I know they're working on it! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Wink.gif" border=0 ALIG

Brad, Not being a design/artist myself I'd be a fifth wheel all the way but I'm hoping we'll get a beautiful detailed mini-essay out of this after it's over!! Your essay evaluations on the Apple G4 which you purchased (mainly at the time) for video editing was as good as any book I've ever read....I just couldn't stop reading it! Have fun & keep us posted!! <img

Reply to AMD: A New SuperStar Born in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Agree totally with you DZ....intel is also by far the bigger company than AMD....alot larger in terms of size & total market share. AMD mainly has it's niche in the "hardcore gamers" market - like myself & I love AMD. There's no doubt however over the last 10 years or so....AMD has come ALONG way from the K6 chips & before that! It's really facinating to see the development with both of these chip makers !! The engineering & brains that g

Good one Snow.....I've had mine since Dec, 2001 & not a hiccup or hitch - no crashes of any kind whatsoever - I was spared alot of grief NOT having a system from the 80's & early 90's when that use to be common place! It's just like the out-of-date "PC's are harder to use than xxx argument" - thats all in the past. <img src="http://images3.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Big
