  1. Review - BitComet

    0.58 (May 27, 2005)

    For the user who things this is alot like bitlord, its because bit lord is based on bitcomet. Bit comet is not open source, so I'm not sure how that came about. But bit comet was first and in contrast to bit lord, ad free.

    Azerus is written in Java, causing alot of overhead when you have more than just a couple torrents running. Bit comet is alot more effcient in comparison and does everything i need.

    For a couple months, then the PC will be ahead again. From what I've seen, the current generation of video cards, X1000 and Nvidia 7800 are pretty much on par with the GPUs in the new consoles.

    Most researchers do it that way. The problem is that not everyone will go ahead and install the patch causing problems like zotob.

    I like the fact that it does only does what it needs to do. Since i run a messenger client all the time, I want it to use a minimum of system resources. Talk Does It, none of of the others get even close.

    I do think it could use a couple extra features though, multi chat, and file send. But keep it simple and small.

  5. Comment - Future Display Standard Proposed

    I have a hard time beliving that they will actually improve color what so ever. What they do need to improve is dynamic range(Being able to handle a larger range of brightnesses). Thats going to take more than a simple display change to pull off.

    There is only one reason for a video card to need to communicate with the monitor. Digital rights management. Everything else this article mentions is already possible with current standards. I understand the need of media makers to protect thier content rather then be consumer friendly. But DRM is a waste of money no matter how complicated you make it. I have no doubt that DRM using display port will be cracked quickly. Making it untterly worthless to have to upgrade to new equipment.
