Re: sony appologizes for rootkit
So what are the chances this will affect other game copy protection. It would be very nice if this lead to some kind of protection to make sure that the consumer is not sold a game that just wont work in their system because of some half baked copy protection (take note UbiSoft). It appears that the shite really is hitting… -

Re: 3ds max 2011, PC shuts off and restart while rendering complex scene

Re: Nvidia Tesla - anyone used it?
It looks like they're pretty pricey - about $1500 per GPU, up to $12000 for a 4xGPU server rack. I suppose if you're doing a done of lighting, that's not too bad overall, for the project.

Re: Game Review Vids
I started watching them the other day when they where first posted. I checked out and ended up moving my attention to other things about 2min into Mario Galaxy and ended up closing the window by accident about 4min in.
