I know most of you dont follow hardware but thought it might still be fun. What do you guys expect from the upcoming Phenom II? Do you think AMD will finally beat Intel Penryn? Beating Core i7 remains out of question.
Which hardware sites do you follow? Any good discussion forums? One site I enjoy is the Beyond3d forums .. any others like it? Some place where you can have meaningful discussion on things like CPU architectures and GPUs? HN has never been a good forum for this (HN is mostly only good for business, web and science news). hardware.reddit doesnt seem active either.
I wanted to start a programming related blog where I will be occasionally be posting code snippets. Primarily C and Python but also some Scala. I was looking for a blogging system that will help me do some code highlighting and indenting. Which service will you recommend? Or should I host my own and if so using which my software?
