Asus soups up Lamborghini laptop with 1TB SSD
******************EXCERPT********************
The Asus Lamborghini VX5 laptop comes with an LCD cover designed to remind users of the Lamborghini Reventon sports car's aluminum-alloy fuselage.
Its piano-painted mirror surface is also supposed to mimic the car's finish. The notebook comes with a 1TB SSD from pureSilicon Inc., which launched the compact flash-memory drive in January.
Yawn. Let me know when the bus bandwidth reaches 1GB. Then we’ll talk. Same with GPU’s; the BW needs to be faster. Fiber-optic anyone?
I remember when a Gig took an entire computer room. I now have more computing power and storage in my PDA than on my 1st Mainframe — 1 MB of of virtual core memory and we were happy to have it!
And we had to push the bits uphill — to AND from the terminals! ASCII? I barely knew ye!! We had to use EBCDIC — and we liked it! COBOL that had to do their own memory segmentation? You betcha. Hot chick graphics? Character based — and we liked it!
*grumble* spoilt whippersnappers.
fyi
Dang, I can put a TB in my new laptop.
