As you might already know intel has released a new chipset to it’s x86-64 family. The i7 is the successor of the core 2 duo and the 5th installment in Intel since the pentium series.

This new line of processors shows great improvement over the core 2 duo architecture. Most notably is the one die memory controller and the QuickPath interface. However make it a note that AMD has been using a similar technology for the past 8 years. 

The i7 is defiantly a step in the right direction and seems that Intel does not cease to amaze me in designing new and innovative products. Currently the processor is shipping in three models, but rumors say that we will see a mobile version of the processor by first quarter next year. Keep it up Intel you are kicking AMD’s ass and I am liking every minute of it! 

Don’t forget to submit your own feedback and anything I missed below.

This post is long due and today I decided to take the time to explain why iPocalypse IRC differs from any other IRC network on the internet.

Recently I have had the opportunity to meet so many different people all over the iPoc network that have not only helped me change BluePhoenix.TV but become a better person as well. See iPoc IRC is different because most everyone on the network does not care about status do not care if they are sop, aop, hop or vop. They are that they are part of a great community and family of friends.

I have been using iPocalypse IRC for about 4 months now and I am still amazed on how friendly everyone is. You can join an channel and be greeted not only my the members of said channel but also the staff that makes it possible for the hundreds of people to communicate across the globe (the iPoc staff). I am so pleased to know that the staff care about ever person on the network and will do anything to make their stay as comfortable as possible. 

I hope to see this network grow into something unique and special on the internet and I would like to invite anyone who is not already a member to join us.

Server : irc.iPocalypse.net

Great Channels to join : #geekologist, #ipocalypse, #das, #help, #dan, #coheed, #chris, and #nuke.

From everyone here at BluePhoenix.TV I would like to thank you iPocalypse IRC for your time, patience and hard work.
