First Programmable Quantum Computer Created
The NIST computer consists of two quantum gates, one single qubit gate and an entangled two qubit gate. The gates utilized two beryllium ions stimulated with UV lasers to represent operations. The test programs run came back with 79% correct results. Certainly not perfect, but a huge step forward.

Crytek Showcases Multiplatform CryEngine3
By all accounts Crysis is one of the most talked about PC first person shooters of all time. Few titles even come close to matching the graphical fidelity pumped out by CryEngine2, and let be honest here, this is still our go to game whenever we test out our upgraded rigs.
Intel Files Trademark Infringement Claim against Harris Corporation
The verbal proximity of Harris Corporation’s Centrio product name – used to sell a “breakthrough multiviewer” – to Intel’s Centrino brand name alarmed the chip maker to such an extent that it decided to sue the former.
