Microsoft's Windows Store will offer "a bigger bite of the apple"
AllThingsD have some live coverage from a just-held Microsoft event, where they talked about their upcoming Windows Store that features in their next OS, Windows 8. Windows President Steven Sinofsky was on hand, as well as Windows Web Services VP Antoine Leblond.
Leblond recapped that Microsoft is proud to have Windows 8 working on ARM and x86 chips, small and big computers, with "it's the biggest and most significant developer opportunity ever", he promised. Windows Store is set to offer some differences to what the Apple App Store and Google Android Market offer, by giving free trial versions of apps, Leblond says "the best advertisement for your app will be the app itself," and I totally agree.
Where did the days of shareware go?
Microsoft's first mentioned partner is Disney, where they're bringing their online books and magazines to Windows 8. Popular game "Cut the Rope" is being converted from trial to paid, with Leblond adding "we're super excited to have this app on Windows," adding that the Windows version, unlike the Android and iOS variants, was all written in HTML 5 and Javascript. "You can build hardcore games using these technologies," he says.
Leblond also reiterated the scale of Windows, noting that there are more than 1.25 billion PCs on the planet, saying "it's a ridiculously huge number", noting that there are more PCs on Earth than cars. He also added that there will be more than 400 million new x86-based PCs in the next 12 months. Leblond also compared "apples to apples to apples", with Windows, Apple and Android number sales over the last two years.
Leblond also stated that Microsoft will localize the store in all the languages that Windows is localized in (more than 100) payment mechanisms in 230 markets. In the top 40 markets, they will have local pricing and will pay developers in 20 different currencies. Leblond also takled that rivals have "too many constraints," specifically pointing toward how Apple stands between publishers and their customers by taking 30-percent.
Leblond says "we're going to be taking a different approach," where there'll be mechanisms for in-app purchases and trial apps built into the store. A demo from The Daily Telegraph was shown, where it was able to handle its own subscription back-end using its authentication and purchasing mechanisms, something that Apple just doesn't allow. Leblond adds" it's not an app you could have on the iPad," at least without giving Apple a cut and using their authentication and payment mechanisms.
Microsoft also discussed their application approval process, saying that there are two extremes. Android Market has virtually no checks ahead of launch, but then Apple has a stringent, sometimes opaque process. Microsoft wants to sit in-between this too easy, but not too hard process. Where they'll offer developers the tools Microsoft will use to check their code. "It is the same checks that we are going to use," says Leblond.
What cut will Microsoft take from the app purchasing? Leblond said the goal was to return most money to developers, where pricing can be from $1.49 to $999.99, "a thousand bucks is just too much for an app," he said. Microsoft will start by taking a 30-percent cut, but after the app makes $25,000 in sales and in-app purchases, Microsoft will drop this amount to 20-percent.
Google's Chrome Web Store for comparison sake takes 5-percent, Mac and iOS app stores grab 30-percent.
Store will debut with the beta of Windows 8 which is slated for late February 2012.

Intel is currently playing with 14nm test circuits, releases teaser info
In an exclusive interview with NordicHardware, Managing Director of Intel Northern Europe, Pay Bliemer, revealed that Intel is currently playing with 14nm circuits and have them actually "up and running" in a lab.
Bliemer also says that by the time Ivy Bridge launches, Intel will be one and a half nodes ahead of the competition. He adds:
I wouldn't say that we have problem but there's no denying that it's getting more complicated the smaller you make something, so you're running into limitations - but our R&D as well from an architectural point of view are the guys making the manufacturing and that's within the same company - which makes Intel unique still. So we can really work extremely close with these teams. We are the same team, the guys who are going to manufacture the parts and the ones who will be designing the parts.
That isn't even the best bit! Intel has already pushed 14nm into the test lab and NordicHardware have confirmed from Intel that they have the technology to build circuits at 14nm, and are currently running tests at 14nm in the lab. 
We need to keep going and you can trust me that in our labs we actually have the next generation after 22nm running, so we need to keep going.[...]I cannot really disclose more about that other than that in a laboratory-environment, absolutely we do have the path, our engineers do have the path to actually go and produce 14nm products.
There are many variables that you can play with of course it is not the right name for it and the engineers would not like it when I say play, that you can influence to actually go and stay to that model. And I think the breakthrough we had now with the 3D metal gates, just the design of the gate will actually allow for much more efficient thermals and power.

Apple is being investigated by the European Commission, e-book cartel won't be happy
This is something that should develop into 2012, but early reports are that the European Commission just announced a few hours ago that they have opened a formal antitrust proceeding to investigate whether a number of international e-book publishers have engaged in anti-competitive practices affecting the sale of e-books in Europe, "possibly with the help of Apple."
The Commission says it will investigate whether these publishers and Apple have engaged in illegal agreements or practices that would "have the object or the effect of restricting competition" in the European Union or in the European Economic Area (EEA). The Commission isn't stopping there, either. They're also looking into "agency agreements" between the publishers and e-book retailers, in collaboration with the UK Office of Fair Trading.

XFX ProSeries 1000W Power Supply Review
Introduction
Over the past five to six years, the name XFX has become synonymous with enthusiasts and for many good reasons. XFX made a huge push during the era of the NVIDIA 6xxx and 7xxx series cards and were always pushing the limits of the clock speeds. This gave them some of the fastest cards on the market and enthusiasts naturally flocked to them for better performance. Since then, the company has expanded quite a bit and now not only offers NVIDIA cards, but AMD cards and power supplies as well.XFX's motto is "Play Hard," and their power supplies allow you to do just that. They offer a wide range of units to fulfill any need, from the low power user to the full enthusiast. XFX recently introduced a few new power supplies to their ProSeries line and we are going to take a look at a few of the new units over the coming weeks. Today we are taking a look at the new ProSeries 1000W Platinum PSU. It should offer enough power for nearly everyone out there and do so at high efficiency.
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
We were able to find the new ProSeries 1000W power supply readily available at a very wide variety of places and the power supply has an MSRP of $249.99. We couldn't find anyone that could beat Newegg's price on the unit, coming in at $249.99 with free shipping. XFX backs the ProSeries 1000W with a five year warranty.

Intel, Micron Extend NAND Flash Technology Leadership With Introduction of World's First 128Gb NAND Device and Mass Production of 64Gb 20nm NAND
New 128Gb Device Ideal for Small Form Factor Tablets, Smartphones, SSDs and High-Performance Compute Devices
- The new 20nm 128Gb MLC NAND device doubles the storage capacity and performance of the companies' existing 20nm 64Gb NAND device.
- Intel and Micron continue to lead the industry with the most advanced NAND production process technology, announcing mass production of their 20nm 64Gb NAND flash.
- The industry's first monolithic 128Gb part can store 1 terabit of data in a single fingertip-size package with just eight die-a new storage benchmark that meets the ongoing demand for slim, sleek products.
- The companies' 20nm NAND is the first to use an innovative planar cell structure that overcomes the scaling constraints of standard floating gate NAND.
SANTA CLARA, Calif. and BOISE, Idaho, Dec. 6, 2011 - Intel Corporation and Micron Technology, Inc., today announced a new benchmark in NAND flash technology - the world's first 20 nanometer (nm), 128 gigabit (Gb), multilevel-cell (MLC) device. The companies also announced mass production of their 64Gb 20nm NAND, which further extends the companies' leadership in NAND process technology.
Developed through Intel and Micron's joint-development venture, IM Flash Technologies (IMFT), the new 20nm monolithic 128Gb device is the first in the industry to enable a terabit (Tb) of data storage in a fingertip-size package by using just eight die. It also provides twice the storage capacity and performance of the companies' existing 20nm 64Gb NAND device. The 128Gb device meets the high-speed ONFI 3.0 specification to achieve speeds of 333 megatransfers per second (MT/s), providing customers with a more cost-effective solid-state storage solution for today's slim, sleek product designs, including tablets, smartphones and high-capacity solid-state drives (SSDs.)
"As portable devices get smaller and sleeker, and server demands increase, our customers look to Micron for innovative new storage technologies and system solutions that meet these challenges," said Glen Hawk, vice president of Micron's NAND Solutions Group. "Our collaboration with Intel continues to deliver leading NAND technologies and expertise that are critical to building those systems."
The companies also revealed that the key to their success with 20nm process technology is due to an innovative new cell structure that enables more aggressive cell scaling than conventional architectures. Their 20nm NAND uses a planar cell structure - the first in the industry - to overcome the inherent difficulties that accompany advanced process technology, enabling performance and reliability on par with the previous generation. The planar cell structure successfully breaks the scaling constraints of the standard NAND floating gate cell by integrating the first Hi-K/metal gate stack on NAND production.
"It is gratifying to see the continued NAND leadership from the Intel-Micron joint development with yet more firsts as our manufacturing teams deliver these high-density, low-cost, compute-quality 20nm NAND devices," said Rob Crooke, Intel vice president and general manager of Intel's Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group. "Through the utilization of planar cell structure and Hi-K/Metal gate stack, IMFT continues to advance the technological capabilities of our NAND flash memory solutions to enable exciting new products, services and form factors."
The demand for high-capacity NAND flash devices is driven by three interconnected market trends: data storage growth, the shift to the cloud and the proliferation of portable devices. As digital content continues to grow, users expect that data to be available across a multitude of devices, all synchronized via the cloud. To effectively stream data, servers require high-performance, high-capacity storage that NAND delivers, and storage in mobile devices has consistently grown with increased access to data. High-definition video is one example of an application that requires high-capacity storage, since attempting to stream this type of data can create a poor user experience. These developments create great opportunities for high-performance, small-footprint storage, both in the mobile devices that consume the content and the storage servers that deliver it.
Intel and Micron noted that the December production ramp of their 20nm 64Gb NAND flash product will enable a rapid transition to the 128Gb device in 2012. Samples of the 128Gb device will be available in January, closely followed by mass production in the first half of 2012. Achievement of this milestone will further enable greater densities and overall fab output, while also helping the companies' development teams cultivate the expertise required to design complex storage solutions and refine future technologies.
