Comments on: Intel's future graphics chip adding a new vector

The company's Larrabee chip will use a new class of vector-processing instructions when it arrives in late 2009 or 2010, but Intel promises it will still be easier to develop for than rivals' products.

AMD is ahead

Why doesn't the author compare Intel's video efforts to AMD's or is he just another paid Intel advertising exec. Sorry for the sarcasum but Intel's noise is overwhelming everything on the internet, and thank God for the Europeans to put them right!

The only interest groups will be those making unix like environment or that of prepitory tangiated unix with a twist of gates logic and some squarer windows. It's not like a couple of Mayans tuning star to star energy systems hiding somwhere lightly below the oceans bed dancing again after hving dun the moon walk for the umteenth time are about to say well i'm glad you engineers have spoken up about driver implimentation capabilities we were getting worried your usless silicon setup might actually have become so complicated to use that there isnt even a neron spare left to enlighten what passes as a brain these days come the big day.

Year thats some great news there Intel.

Shouldn't you be posting on Slash-Dot? you definently have that mentality I'm sorry. Did you interject MSFT for no other reason than to bash? Where were you in the days of just IBM and the elitism, and DOS pre-Windows days? And where were Apple and Linux? Your punk butt probably does not know. Get an education
Cool.

Intel sounds like Hillary

Intel is talking like Hilalry: I'll do this, I'll do that. Lets see it first and then I will believe it. Until then, like another reader wrote earlier, AMD is the leader.

How do you spell Hillary? What does Hillary have to do with R and D and then the release of hardware (or software)? Ever hear of testing? Ever hear of tweaking out the problems? What happens when you shoot-off your mouth and then shoot early?

Call me when you have a "dual-core" of 1.5 trillion processors per hemi-sphere then Everyone will want one. You could implant a human into one of those.
