During Nvidia’s fourth-quarter financial results conference call, Nvidia shed a little more light on its acquisition of Ageia and what it plans to do with the firm’s PhysX technology. Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang made no announcements regarding the deal until asked in the question-and-answer session, but he was happy to divulge a decent number of details.

Huang revealed that Nvidia’s strategy is to take the PhysX engine and port it onto CUDA. For those not in the know, CUDA stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, and it’s a C-like application programming interface Nvidia developed to let programmers write general-purpose applications that can run on GPUs. All of Nvidia’s existing GeForce 8 graphics processors already support CUDA, and Huang confirmed that the cards will be able to run PhysX.

We’re working toward the physics-engine-to-CUDA port as we speak. And we intend to throw a lot of resources at it. You know, I wouldn’t be surprised if it helps our GPU sales even in advance of [the port's completion]. The reason is, [it's] just gonna be a software download. Every single GPU that is CUDA-enabled will be able to run the physics engine when it comes. . . . Every one of our GeForce 8-series GPUs runs CUDA.

Huang thinks the integration will encourage people to spend more on graphics processing hardware, as well:

Our expectation is that this is gonna encourage people to buy even better GPUs. It might—and probably will—encourage people to buy a second GPU for their SLI slot. And for the highest-end gamer, it will encourage them to buy three GPUs. Potentially two for graphics and one for physics, or one for graphics and two for physics.

Last, but not least, Huang said developers are “really excited” about the PhysX-to-CUDA port. “Finally they’re able to get a physics engine accelerated into a very large population of gamers,” he explained. Huang was unwilling to get into a time frame for the release of the first PhysX port. However, considering this will be purely a software implementation and Nvidia now has Ageia engineers on its payroll, the port may not take too long to complete.

My friend asked me to install some smileys and i downloaded the setup. It asked me if I wan’t to install a MyWebSearch bar, and I replied No. However the search bar DID install!!! The main problem is that it’s not an extension, so you need to do following steps to remove it:
1) Go to your Mozilla folder, and enter the chrome folder – default C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome
2) Find m3ffxtbr.jar and m3ffxtbr.manifest and delete them

I have successfully collected a few links containing explanations for almost all mobile phones. All links are linked to a forum called Burek (Serbain forum) and the explanations are in English. You might need to register to forum, but believe me you won’t regret it. The explanations are detailed and there you will find answers to all of your questions. If this article goes popular on the digg.com I will translate few more articles that aren’t in English (so if you are interested – please digg it!).

I’m sick of all that spam and chain letters I get from my email contacts. I’m getting about 100 stupid emails a day, and my spam and inbox folders are almost always full of this crap. Is it so hard to see the difference between hoax and truth? I’ve wrote some simple questions that every human (well almost every) will be able to answer before sending me an email, and I’m going to send it to all of my contacts (a potential chain letter to fight against chain letters). If you have any more suggestions please comment.

Questions:

- Do you think it’s possible to win a lottery award of 1.000.000$ by not even playing the lottery?

- Has anyone had the things from chain letter (like not having sex anymore or similar) happened to him?

- Do you honestly believe that a Microsoft worker is using a yahoo email address as a official business contact address?

- How did the lawyer of an African billionaire found you as a right person for money laundry?

- If you are asked to forward a mail to all your contacts, because you will earn 10$ for every mail that they forward, and 5$ for every mail that they forward, do you think that you will end up by being a millionaire or a sucker?

- Is it possible that msn made a mistake and that it has only 500 usernames left and it’s using a chain letter to close inactive accounts?

- Do you think that Microsoft official mail will consist of words like “dude”, “(sorry?)”, and will be written like 5yr old(forgotten capital letters, commas, funny paragraphs…) wrote it?

- Are you sure that I want to receive that chain letter about some “naked celebrity” pictures?

If I ever get a stupid spam or chain letters after this from some of my email contacts, I’m going to mark it as a spam email address and block it (or delete it).
