At present the main difference between Intel's and AND's multi core
processors are the way the cores speak to one another and the way they deal
with cached CPU memory.
AMD has the edge at present, but it is anticipated that Intel will shortly
be launching a new chip family to mirror AMDs int

FWIW, I am with Homecall for broadband and phone (it's *CHEAP*). Their
broadband was actually provided off the back of Tiscali's services, though
as a customer you never see/hear or deal with Tiscali themselves.
Although I have heard a lot bad about Tiscali, I used them for dial-up

In my experience, there are too many MCSE graduates who don't even know

passed the course!!!

On 7.10 if I use some themes (I normally use "Crux", but I've had to
