Screensavers and their purpose

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

Many years ago screensavers have been used to prevent the so-called screen-burn-effect- a permanent disfigurement of areas on a CRT display caused by non-moving text or graphics being displayed continuously for long periods of time. To avoid this effect, screen savers have been used to blank the screen or fill it with moving images or patterns when the computer was not in use. Today, screensavers don’t serve their original purpose and are primarily used for entertainment.

In fact, we don’t need screensavers any more. However we are still using them because they are very pleasant for the eye in our coffee breaks. Particularly complex and colourful 3D-screensavers are extremely nice to look at.

The processor is the heart of every computer, more specific- console. The fast technologically improved “processor” can open new opportunities – improved AI, more detailed and pictorial graphic and realistic physics.
The processor in the original Xbox is quite modest compare to the nowadays standards – one core Celeron 733 MHz. However, its inheritor in Х360, is much more serious machine, covering the PowerPC specifications of IBM, with three cores 3,2 GHz. It supports till six fibers on the same time, which gives developers the opportunity to promote its potential. Even if it is not comparable with “Cell” – the core of PS3, with Xbox 360 you will have more (greater show) special effects, more detailed graphic and smarter enemies.

Which couples last longer?

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

When it come to some of the couples we know - such as where the guy deliberately gets the girl pregnant, because he figures that having a child will give him the motivation to give up is heroin habit - I sort of expect those marriages to last only a couple of years the most. And yet it’s not those couples that are falling apart. It’s the marriages made up of men we admire for their integrity and courage, who are married to women who are loyal, nurturing and understanding. And most of these people are good and solid folks. It’s not supposed to happen this way!
