Having seen a great demo and presentation this week about the new VirtualBox 1.6 release, I have been enjoying trying out the various combinations to see which ones I like more. Today I tried out the Solaris version of VirtualBox on my OpenSolaris 2008.05 laptop. My laptop is a Sony VAIO, a Centrino Pro processor based system. [...]

Ah, Friday, my favorite day for watching a few videos at work. I've been monitoring how many developers are watching all of the segments of the video series we've posted on the Take Five site.   It is natural that not everyone will make it to the end, but I'm wondering if there is anything we could do better. First, [...]

When The Perfect Is The Enemy Of The Good I've already discussed the benefits to Intel Graphics and HDMI Audio in a previous post, and complained about the HDCP repeater mode bug (still unresolved as of graphics driver release 15.9.2) which forces people to use gray-market software if they want to use Intel HDMI Audio to [...]

I started with Intel in 1984 as a software engineer and have since held a variety of technical, marketing, and program management roles. In my current role, I get to [...]

I just had coffee with an old friend, an M.D. (and an active extreme gamer) active in building a virtual world for medical emergency preparedness. He's very excited about his work, and said he receives avatars and location models from many sources around the world in his medical circles, and is now building a repository to store [...]

There's got to be a catch There are 5 CC-states and, depending upon how you count, 6 PC-states in the Penryn line of Intel processors. And, [...]

I won't say my last post here was harsh-- it was heartfelt and survives a reread without me flinching-- but I wanted to be fair and illustrate why I think it's a big issue.
