I just wanted to let all of my readers that I am working on another blog related to flight simulation.
I have been working on more articles for The Evangelist, and trust me when I say that this blog will not suffer due to the new blog. The setup has been what is taking so long.
I will be posting a link so you can take a look soon.
Thanks,
-The Evangelist

If you have been following this blog for a while, you may have read my previous post about Scour, a social search engine.
Since them, Scour has certainly come a long way. They won Mashable's Open Web Award for Best Search and Social Search Engine, facing the likes of Google with its popularity and new searchwiki social features.
If you haven't checked Scour out yet, you should think about giving it a try. The results are incredibly relevant because of the social rankings and, to top it off, you can earn points for every search which can be redeemed for debit gift card.

Dell fans rejoice, the spec sheet for the long-awaited Latitude XT2 have finally been leaked by Dell.
The XT2 is Dell's newest tablet, and the specs sure show it. With either a 1.2 GHz or 1.4 GHz Core 2 Duo Ultra Low Voltage (ULV) Processor, a 12.1" LCD display and more, the XT2 is certainly a decent next-gen tablet.

The Australian PC Authority website is reporting that Nvidia has a team working on a chip using the x86 microarcitecture without a license, something they are unlikely to get.
This would obviously present legal problems for Nvidia if they are producing a chip. The article takes a fairly negative stance on Nvidia's alleged choice to begin designing a chip without a license.
I do, however, think that this brings up a fact that could have ramifications: there is an oligopoly in the x86 microprocessor market. And then we consider the fact that x86 processors are used in most personal computers these days. It makes me wonder of Nvidia would have a chance of getting in on the market by fighting Intel, claiming that the lack of competition is unfair. It seems highly unlikely that this would work, but it will be interesting to see if this will happen if they do end up in a lawsuit.
Then again, Nvidia might not be working on an x86 architecture chip at all. Litigation (or lack thereof) will probably be a good indicator of whether Nvidia will really go through with this.

In honor of the recent re-launch of The Evangelist, the blog now sports a new look. It is my hope that the new design will make the blog more accessible.
Recent posts are now accessible from the top left pane right above the posts. There is also a new live traffic feed which shows where all visitors to the blog are coming from in the right-side pane.
In addition, our motto has changed to Worldwide Technology News.
I hope you enjoy the new features, as well as the upcoming articles here on The Evangelist.
