EA has released a teaser trailer of it upcoming Need for Speed title.At the moment no details are available and the game has no known title.All we see in the video is a beautiful looking track with a jetblack car with the camera rotating round it ready to take off.The screen then goes blank and the last thing we hear is it taking off with an incredible sound of nitrous!
take a look at it...its worth it
DS exel-Like the DS lite/light and unofficially the DS phat/fat, the exel will excel in all the things that make the DS unique. SD support (multiple formats) rather than have onboard storage for use other than firmware and firmware updates. Each system will have an ID that Nintendo will use when downloading games. The ID will also be used to cut down on piracy. Nintendo already plans to ban pirated games from wifi, at least. Extra features will be available when downloading games that carts purchased from stores will not include. This is to extend the life of the ds similar to the attempts to extend the gameboy life (gameboy pocket, then gameboy color). Use of store bought games with the Nintendo DS exel will be optional and will be placed in the same slot as the sd reader cart. There are plans to incorporate a more multimedia experience into the firmware (possibly using an iTunes store-esque service), also there are plans to use cellular internet as well as the building on the pre-existing wireless connection features (adding WAP/WAP2 support, increasing data transfer speed). A browser will be purchasable and function similar to opera for wii. It will include a slot 2 the same size as the ds lite's. It will not be released soon because of both the lite's strong sales and hardware prices, as well as expanding and familiarizing the casual market with the less advanced lite model that sets it apart from the competition (Sony's psp, also the ps3 and xbox 360) before introducing exel. Nintendo would like to price the handheld around 150 USD. There are talks about redesigning the exel for Nintendo's next generation handheld system if the DS lite's sales continue to dominate the market.
During Nvidia's fourth-quarter financial results conference call, Nvidia shed a little more light on its acquisition of Ageia and what it plans to do with the firm's PhysX technology. Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang made no announcements regarding the deal until asked in the question-and-answer session, but he was happy to divulge a decent number of details.
Huang revealed that Nvidia's strategy is to take the PhysX engine and port it onto CUDA. For those not in the know, CUDA stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, and it's a C-like application programming interface Nvidia developed to let programmers write general-purpose applications that can run on GPUs. All of Nvidia's existing GeForce 8 graphics processors already support CUDA, and Huang confirmed that the cards will be able to run PhysX.
We're working toward the physics-engine-to-CUDA port as we speak. And we intend to throw a lot of resources at it. You know, I wouldn't be surprised if it helps our GPU sales even in advance of [the port's completion]. The reason is, [it's] just gonna be a software download. Every single GPU that is CUDA-enabled will be able to run the physics engine when it comes. . . . Every one of our GeForce 8-series GPUs runs CUDA.
Huang thinks the integration will encourage people to spend more on graphics processing hardware, as well:
Our expectation is that this is gonna encourage people to buy even better GPUs. It might—and probably will—encourage people to buy a second GPU for their SLI slot. And for the highest-end gamer, it will encourage them to buy three GPUs. Potentially two for graphics and one for physics, or one for graphics and two for physics.
Last, but not least, Huang said developers are "really excited" about the PhysX-to-CUDA port. "Finally they're able to get a physics engine accelerated into a very large population of gamers," he explained. Huang was unwilling to get into a time frame for the release of the first PhysX port. However, considering this will be purely a software implementation and Nvidia now has Ageia engineers on its payroll, the port may not take too long to complete.

The nvidia G100 will be based on new architecture.The chips will be based on 45nm technology :-D which means half the power consumption of the current generation GPU's.It will sport more than 1.5 billion transistors and with about 2 Teraflops of shader processing power!!
The cards will also support Super fast DDR4 and DDR5 RAM.The cards will support DirectX 11 in microsofts upcoming OS WINDOWS VIENNA which is scheduled to be released by 2009.The geforce 10 series are expected to come out in the first Quater of 2009 and will support Nvidia CUDA 2 technology
Microsoft recently released a internal beta of its upcoming 'Windows 7' also know as 'Windows Vienna'.With only a few days gone after it release a torrent has appeared in many popular bittorrent sites.Many have stated that it is fake but its still not very clear wheather this is true.Windows vienna shares some of its features with vista and looks like a brother to it.But vienna is a completely non dos based OS and will be available in 64bit only.here are some of the screenshots
With so many trojans floating around the world wide web its becomes risky to be browsing without any protection.So here is an easy way to protect and lockdown your PC from unwanted threats using some free-ware stuff.The basic things required is an antivirus and a firewall.One of the best free sodtware available is The award winning Comodo firewall and AVG antivirus.
