      Microsoft employee installs Chrome Midway through presentation because Edge keeps crashing.

      You just can't make this stuff up.

      I heard it was because they had Edge locked down, but who knows.

      Yeah I heard that too, but installing apps is ok.

                    @kelly I definitely have not used this to upgrade unassisted people's computers.

                      AMD's EPIC processors getting even more epic (sorry, can't help myself.)

                      128 threads in a single CPU, yes, please.

                        @travisdh1 Nice. Might have to upgrade the 4930k in a year or two.

                              People were just awfully excited as if this hadn’t been available for years.

                                It's the price point it'll be available for that's exciting. 128 threads was child's play even back in the 90's, I had my hands on a 2000 thread system back then. I have a little inkling you did as well @scottalanmiller.

                                  Isnt this the first with that many threads that natively supports x86 and amd64?
                                  .
                                  Though they are going to use 225W to do this. I wouldnt even need my heater in the winter if i was running BOINC projects.

                                    That's a first, yes. But for server workloads, that's not very interesting.
