Ask the techies! / Ask Dan: What's with the 3Gb memory barrier?
« on: August 13, 2007, 02:38:52 PM »

You can install at least 4Gb of memory on most motherboards today, but apparently you shouldn't install more than 3Gb if you're not running a 64-bit operating system.

This is not for the weak at heart. I thought the head shots in COD2 were exaggerated. I guess I was wrong.

Hardware / Forget plasma and LCD TV - the Laser TV is coming!
« on: October 12, 2006, 06:30:13 PM »
http://www.itwire.com.au/content/view/6216/52/

Launched worldwide from Sydney, Australia yesterday by laser and wireless company Arasor, they aren't actually launching a new television, but a new technology that uses a laser to display images on your TV screen. Instead of using a DLP (digital light processing) chip, or an electron gun as used in 'regular' CRT (cathode ray tube), LCD (liquid crystal display) or plasma TV technology, Arasor have developed a laser display engine to beam images onto your screen, with astounding benefits, including an incredibly rich colour range far exceeding conventional plasma and LCD TVs.

You can't buy a Laser TV in stores yet, but 8 consumer electronics firms have partnered with Arasor and will be demonstrating Laser TVs at January's CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, with units set to be available in stores by late 2007 or early 2008.
