GPU Tech: NVIDIA Talks Fermi, Unveils Nexus
If you've followed the early announcements concerning Fermi, NVDIA's next-generation GPU architecture, you should already be aware that the new GPU core is both an evolution of the existing GT200 architecture and a significant new design in its own right. NVIDIA made it clear early on that they weren't going to be talking about GeForce products at the conference this year, but instead have discussed Fermi as a Tesla successor and future high-end engine primed to drive the GPGPU industry. So that's 16 times

While it carries many of the same features as the GT200 series, Fermi is distinctly its own animal. NVIDIA's Fermi whitepaper describes the new architecture as follows: "G80 was our initial vision of what a unified graphics and computing parallel processor should look like. GT200 extended the performance and functionality of G80. With Fermi, we have taken all we have learned from the two prior processors and all the applications that were written for them, and employed a completely new approach to design to create the world’s first computational GPU."So that's 16 times 32...carry the four...

According to Transportation SecretaryRay LaHood, the administration also plans to put restrictions on cell phone useby rail operators, truck drivers, and interstate bus drivers."Driving while distracted should just feel wrong — justas driving without a seat belt or driving while intoxicated," LaHood saidat the end of a two-day conference on the problem. "We're not going tobreak everyone of their bad habits — but we are going to raise awareness andsharpen the consequences."
LaHood said President Barack Obama signed an executive orderon Wednesday that will ban all federal workers from texting while driving ongovernment business, driving government vehicles, or using government equipment.The administration will also work to disqualify school bus drivers from keepingtheir commercial driver's licenses if they are convicted of texting whiledriving.
There's currently legislation in congress pushed by Sen.Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., that would require states to ban texting or e-mailingwhile operating a moving vehicle or lose 25% of their annual federal highwayfunding. While LaHood declined to endorse Schumer's bill, he did say that theadministration would work with Congress.
To date, 18 states and the District of Columbia have passedlaws that make texting while driving illegal. Seven states and the District ofColumbia have banned driving while talking on a handheld cell phone.

OCZ SSDs: Agility or Summit?
I can't wait any more. The first part of my new system build can just as easily go into my existing clunker: a solid state drive.
My needs are modest. Currently I'm using very little of a 120 GB drive, and I've calculated that a 60 GB will keep me happy for a long time-- after all, I want to speed up the OS, web browsing, and World of Warcraft. OCZ makes good products that are reasonably priced, and there are two similar ones on Amazon: the Summit and the Agility.
The Agility seems to have a very slight advantage in read and write speeds, at least according to OCZ's website (at least for the 60 GB rendition). I don't think it's enough to notice in the course of a day's work. They're also about the same price.
I'd like to use my "flexible friend" to buy one of these in the next week, unless someone has a truly compelling reason not to (such as an imminent release of something twice as fast for half as much). What is the considered opinion of you HotHardware readers about these two drives?
