Hmm...why does this remind me of Justen posting a topic about a personal conversation?
It wasn't meant to, I just found the whole thing rather amusing.

I just wanted to let you guys know that this is really just meant to be something to laugh about, because none of us really know what will be needed or not in the coming years. (don't give me any charts or anything, they are not 100% correct) This is just a couple people having a little too much fun forcefully arguing our opinions.

Now with that in mind, it was 12 years oldo, and according to moore's law and the law of accelerating return (i dont wanna explain, all you need to know its an exponential curve that technology increases by, and its entirely accurate) in about 2010, we will have a super computer that is as powerful as 1 human brain, and in about 2020, we can buy a computer for $1000 that is as powerful as 1 human brain. In about 2050, we will have a supercomputer that is as powerful as all the human in the world, and by about 2099, we will have a $1000 computer as poweful as all human brains.

This is entirely true and will happen. Human brain is huge, using extreme parrallel processing, but is very slow (its still measured in Hz or something). The reason computer will catch up is becuase they are quite a bit faster and don't have to be as complicated. Right now our $1000 comptuer are about 10,000 times less powerful than one human brain. That is how fast we are going on in technology. We will need more than even a terabyte of RAM.

the 5-pin is called a Serial port.

think about it... 2 7900GTs:
7900+7900=15800
that is obviously a much higher number than 7950...

I was trying to stay civilized, but it is too much fun to act like that.
