Mar 3rd 2010 3:08PM @holtcg the chip has 40 stream processors, so yes, it should encode video using ATI's Avivo video encoder.

Dec 19th 2009 2:51PM you're goddamned right, crash mode is what made this series unique, and they seem willing to add anything BUT crash mode to paradise.

Addonics Mini NAS: when RAID is too much to ask for (Engadget)

Nov 17th 2009 1:36PM the reason is that the cpu in this thing is not fast enough to take advantage of gigabit. They don't mention the speed on the page, but I would assume it is a low power arm. If you want a good gigabit nas you're getting into atom territory, and dropping a few bills for it.

MacBook Pro battery flies off the handle, busts wide open (Engadget)

Nov 11th 2009 3:03PM john "Keep in mind that this happened less than a year after I got this new battery, so it WOULD HAVE been under warranty had the shady warranty-transfer policy not been in effect."

That isn't shady, that's just business. You don't get a new warranty just because they had to fix something. If they did, I would find a sneaky way to get my laptop and car replaced every year. Apple has the best rated customer service in the biz, so if you don't think that's fair, you'll be even less happy with the alternatives.

Apple's Mini DisplayPort gets VESA stamp of approval (Engadget)

Nov 10th 2009 10:40AM so what's up with that $100 adapter? the reviews on apple.com mostly give it 1 star because of poor image quality and unreliable performance. pretty rare for a company that prides itself on innovation, display quality, and reliability. have they addressed the issue?

New iMac and MacBook touchscreens debut, thanks to Troll Touch (Engadget)

Nov 9th 2009 1:16PM not to mention, this this doesn't even have wheels. I mean, I can buy a real bicycle for a fraction of the cost and it probably wont break if i try to sit on it. typical of apple to release an overpriced computer that doesn't even make coffee, wake up fanbois, you can get a coffee maker for $15 at wal-mart. some people are so stupid that i can't even comprehend them.
