I don’t know about what you guys think, but this is what I call mutlitouch screen. That’s a screen I would buy, yesterday.

It seems that the Intel Core Duo processors that are all the rage these days may be a little more powerful than Intel would have you know. Thanks to a little detective work, it’s been discovered that the processors, deep down inside, are actually 64-bit compatible. Yes, that Core Duo you have right now is a 64-bit chip. Via Gizmodo

Now I wan’t a MacBook Pro more than ever…

Just when we were feeling a bit smug about our new dual-core lappies, along comes Intel to remind us that you’re never on the cutting edge for long. Intel Chief Technology Officer Justin Rattner recently demoed the company’s upcoming Clovertown quad-core processor, which will initially be seen in 2007 servers running two of the chips, for a total of eight cores under the hood. Rattner says the Clovertown architecture is scalable to 32 or more cores on a single chip, which should satiate our speed jones until quantum computers finally go mainstream. According to Rattner, chips with hundreds of cores are theoretically possible with this technology, which means we’ll probably be able to do some pretty serious damage on timed games of Solitaire.

Oh well, it was good while it lasted :). Now I don’t want a Dual-Core MacBook Pro, I want a Quad-Core MacBook Pro.

If you’ve been looking to put a PC into your car but have balked at the costs or the amount of DIY work involved, you may want to take a look at the VoomPC M10000 from VIA and Mini-Box. The companies claim the VoomPC is the first car PC kit available for under $300, and, while we’re sure you can do it yourself for less (you can get the VoomPC enclosure for just $80, and add parts a la carte if you think you can pull it off), it seems like a decnt barebones package, combining the enclosure, power supply and motherboard with a 1GHz VIA C3 processor. Of course, as with any barebones package, you still have to do a little yourself; there’s no hard drive or OS included, and you’re on your own when it comes to installing it in your car and hooking up a display and input device. But this certainly doesn’t seem like a bad way to start.

Now I know some people that will be trilled to have this device and i think it will be a really nice kind of project for me to do. So during Christmas when I will be in Cyprus I think I will convince a friend to do this to his car. So that he can take his mp3’s with him all the time.

You know who you are…
