| Head First with CSS & XHTML - Posted by jhonbob3 |
|
I've always been a fan of the Head First series. They are just not boring books. It's not just text and "interesting" pictures and examples, they go crazy. I remember fixing an error in the program that sang "99 bottles of beer on the wall." They've done Java, Design Patterns, Servlets & JSP, and EJB and now, HTML.
Graeme Williams has reviewed the new book from O'Reilly Media. If you're looking for some sample content, Head First Labs has some sample chapters and more information. |

| Life without a Blackberry? Users shudder to think - Posted by badman3670 |
|
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Life without a "Blackberry?" Hard-core users of the wireless portable e-mail devices are shuddering to think about a possible future without the gadgets they love, hate and aren't sure they can live without.
The chance of a Blackberry-less future loomed more vividly this week when the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review a major patent infringement ruling against maker Research In Motion Ltd. Now, a federal judge could issue an injunction to block RIM's U.S. business. Many observers, however, suspect RIM may develop alternative technology or perhaps pay what some say could be as much as a billion dollars to settle with patent-holding company NTP Inc. "I'm addicted. They should pay the billion dollars and get it over with," Blackberry user and insurance company executive Jim Long said outside his Manhattan office on Monday. More Info Here |

| Running High VDIMM & Low VCORE Risks Killing Your Athlon - Posted by badman3670 |
|
If you run a high vdimm and a low vcore with E die etc you are running the risk of killing the cpu's. So if you have VX etc and you are not raising the vcore on your cpu you stand a chance of pumping a lot of current into the memory controller and causing permenant damage.
Im seeing people running $1k cpu's at default vcore and BH5 at 3.4V, this is a sure way to kill the cpu and is NOTHING to do with an issue on the board. If you are going to run high vdimm run a higher vcore also, and keep your CPU's ok. if your cpu defaults to 1.35, run say 1.45V, you don't need to bash the cpu but you do need to strengthen the diodes that keep the CPU ok. the newer CPUs run a much lower vcore, IE 1.4 or 1.35V. what you are looking at is the difference between the vcore and the VDD supplied to the memory controller from vdimm in bios. Now if the gap between the vcore and the VDD is huge you stand a chance of breaking down the diodes that protect the core from the high VDD. All you have to do is strengthen the cpu's defences, you do this with a bump of vcore...thats all.It does not take a lot of vcore, just a bump from say 1.35 to 1.425 or so to help. The older 13nm cpu's don't look as much at risk although many did die quickly with high vdimm if you all think back.....this will have been the reason they died. |
