Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is A Good Movie

I went to see Prince of Persia in the Theater today and it was quite good. I wasn’t too sure what to think of it from the previews but after watching it, I liked it a lot. I will have to see it again once it comes out on Blue-Ray.

Here is the movie trailer.




And below is a video of the old Prince of Persia video game back in the 386 DOS days on a PC.

This brings back old memories of trying to beat this game but always falling of the ledge and getting killed a thousand times.




Movie Rank 8/10

Intel CPU Chart From 4004 to Core 2 Duo Cpu’s

I stumbled upon a cool list of all Intel CPU’s from 4004 in 1971 to Core 2 Duo CPU’s with cool details such as date of release, bus speed, the amount of cache on board and even how many transistors are in the chip.

Did you know that the 4004 CPU back in 1971 only had 2300 transistors but the Intel Itanium server chip has over 1.7 billion transistors,  WOW That’s a lot of transistors in such a small chip.

Technology has moved forward allowing more and more transistors to be squeezed into such a small package to allow more calculations for faster video editing, multitasking and even more fun from today’s demanding games.
