There's a ton of other cool **** that is making me want to shrivel my wallet like a ballsac on a crisp winter night.

Home Theater Sound bar with built in Blu-Ray
Wireless surround sound speakers
Windows 7 should be interesting
TON of new phones
a HDTV that's 6.5mm thick. Yes, that's .26 of an inch.

And more. 2009 should be good.

5 Gigabytes per second? that seems a little ridiculous... I'd have to see it to believe it.

edit: a hah, upon google searching, its almost 5 Gb/s, not 5 GBPS. 5 Gigabits, not Gigabytes.

Bunch of folks from my company are there... maybe next year I'll be able to go. We do extended warranties for CE retailers among others.

Microsoft announced Vista is gone... Windows 7 should be out soon.

No, it's available, but the servers have been busy all day.

The beta is not a standalone, you have to upgrade to it from Vista SP1

I'm still on XP. I was dual booting for a while when Vista first came out, but then I got bored with it and blew away that partition. And edited the MBR.

Just upped my PC to 2gb. I think I want a 10K RPM HDD.

i hope they fix the resource issue thats with vista in windows 7. the damn OS takes up a sh*t ton of resource bogging the whole system down. xp was much more resource friendly. rich had issues with vista...as did i...when we got our laptops last summer. he switched back to xp.

currently only have 2gb of RAM on my laptop, going to order 4 gigs soon.

never used the side bar, it can single handedly be blamed for vista's need for 2 gigs of memory minimum. BTW, Nilesh, you ever tried a Virtual PC for the XP view instead of partition? Might not give all abilities but if you just using it to practice things, etc, its actually pretty good and doesnt take up as much space as the extra partition...
