Nvidia and AMD do try, but cramming all those millions of transistors into a low-power, compact package just leads to massive expense and an inability to upgrade. Wouldn't it be perfect if you could simply use a standard external graphics card to power your laptop's 3D graphics? Article continues below The good news is that you can. We'd like to say it's as simple as that, but this project does have a few sticking points. The second is Windows 7, as it handles multiple display drivers far more adeptly than anything else. Also if your laptop has more than 2GB of memory a 64-bit installation is also required, as otherwise you'll hit the 4GB address space limit hard. Even though the card has its own memory the processor still needs to be able to address it, this address space is added on top of any existing system memory plus any other hardware resources, including the integrated graphics memory space.

TheAppleBlog – Apple and iOS News, Tips and Reviews On CodeKit 2.0 The following is a guest post by Bryan Jones, the creator of CodeKit. I've been using CodeKit for a couple of years now and I've talked about it plenty. In my opinion it changed the game in front end development making it easy to use advanced tools that, while powerful, felt out of reach for many. Now CodeKit 2.0 it out, which has followed the landscape of front end development, bringing us more powerful tools that are tough to pull off otherwise. Bryan is going to introduce it, and I'll interject here and there to share my thoughts as I've been using 2.0 the last month or so. What is CodeKit? CodeKit is an app that helps you build websites faster. There are other ways to do these things, but CodeKit's mission is to take the pain out of the process. What's New in 2.0? For starters I hired a designer (Guy Meyer) so the UI no longer looks like it was repeatedly beaten with a DOS 5.1 manual. But what you really care about is how it can make you faster. 1. 2. 3. 4. More Cool Stuff OK, I lied.
Vending machine prints any book in minutes A new vending machine has been released which can print any book within minutes.The Espresso Book Machine has access to 500,000 different books - the same as 23.6 miles of shelf space - and can even churn out a fresh copy of Crime and Punishment in just nine minutes. Pages are printed at a rate of over 100 per minute and are then pressed, glued and cut to produce a pristine book. Users simply pick the book they would like on a screen and wait for it to be printed ... it certainly is a novel way of getting a new book. There are currently only three of the £70,000 devices from On Demand Books and Lightning Source, with one in Blackwell's Charing Cross Road branch in London. "We see the Espresso Book Machine as an innovative and exciting way for publishers to get their books out into the market,” said David Taylor, President of Lightning Source. "There is clearly a place for the in-store print on demand model in the emerging landscape of globally distributed print.

Draw Orco from Heman Orco, in the hit 80s cartoon - Heman and the Masters of the Universe, is a small wizard-like creature. So yes, he had magical abilities. And also --- he kind of resembled a 'Jawa', the brown-cloaked aliens from Star Wars: A New Hope. To simplify this character into shapes, the most basic arrangement to come up with - is just as he looks... a triangle. Here though, I've added a few more things to help making the drawing process, all the more fun and easy. Here we go! First Step - Like a Triangle with a Hat! In drawing this character, go ahead and first design a simple lightly-sketched framework - from which to base the lines on before you actually draw them. Here it is... In this case - with respect to the cross over the circle... the intersection is lower than normal. Next - to the drawing! Second Step - How to Draw Orco Beginning with his eyes - positioned about the intersection of the framework cross, go ahead now - and bring forth this cool-looking 80s cartoon wizard. To the board!...

I Will Knot! 10 best alternative operating systems Right now, someone, somewhere is developing the killer operating system feature of the future - a feature that will change computing and make us wonder how we lived without it. However, the person responsible probably isn't grafting away in the labs of Microsoft, Apple or Red Hat - he or she is more likely to be working in a bedroom or loft. Big companies can grow reticent to change, slow to move and adopt new technologies. Features must be escalated through approval bodies, management and bean-counters. Hobbyist projects don't have those commercial pressures and can experiment freely. It might seem audacious to claim that the next Windows is cooking in some part-time coder's house, but it's nothing new. The most successful projects often begin life in ways we'd never expect, and it can take a while for their potential to be fully realised. Into the future We'll look at the best alternative operating systems, with the potential to change the computing landscape over the next decade. 9. 8.
